Well, the countdown is on and we're looking at T-7 days until Playmate arrives. Kind of crazy, but super exciting. This past month (so sorry for the delay...busy and exhausting days these ones have been) has been a bit of a whirlwind for us. Full of appointments, meetings and very little sleep, making team Jardine a little bit rotten, and leaving us with not a lot to write about (it's all boring, with the exception of a two night stay on South Stradbrooke Island for a Climate Change Adaptation meeting and a few surprise baby showers which caught me completely off guard).
Edie the naan maker, with her new 'fake-smile-camera-pose', looking good!
Miss E has settled back down with night sleeps and is (cross the old fingers) sleeping through most nights, giving her and Tim a break. I however have picked up some serious pregnancy insomnia which gives me every sympathy for those who suffer from insomnia without a known cause...Nighttime is definitely time for sleeps (a commonly-used phrase around here). I am looking forward to not being pregnant anymore, and although I realize that sleep will be scarce with the new bub, at least there will be a good reason for why we're up all hours of the night.
Sadly this past week we lost a great friend, Monday night gluten-free dinner buddy and free babysitter to the northern hemisphere. Auntie Steph the Canadian took a new job in Vancouver after a year and a half of living in Brisbane. She's been a big part of our lives since she moved here and we already miss her lots. We're soon going to have to find an esthetician to take over Edie's weekly 'paint-nails' session that she enjoyed with Aunt Steph. We wish her all the best and who knows, maybe she's the start of a great migration back North for all of us...We'll keep you posted on that one.
Our last night with Auntie Stephie, and note mom's new fake smile!
So with no real new news to speak of in our lives, we'll bid you farewell until we have the newest recruit to Team Jardine signed on. Love to all.
Laura
PS. Found some recent pictures that we've not posted, enjoy! Also, a big thank-you to all who took the time (or tried) to contribute to Lindsay and Tim's baby shower book caper. It means a lot!
