A quick pregnancy update
TweetLet me just start off by asking when the hell is this pregnancy glow going to kick in? If you don’t know by now, yes I’m pregnant. Yes it’s been different. Yes I’m still loving this pregnancy but flip it has gone by super fast. I cannot believe we’re almost half way through. There have been parts of this pregnancy which have been easy, some rough and some exciting. THE BUMP I’m yet to post another bump picture, well its actually a full blown pregnancy tummy – I feel like before I even saw a positive pregnancy test result my body knew. So I could very easily be mistaken for…

How the third pregnancy is kicking my ass – but I’m still LOVING it
TweetHello Baby Yeah you read right, baby number 3 is set to arrive on 5 November 2018 (still holding thumbs our Doc keeps to this date and does not decide to do our caesarian birth at 39 weeks because then hello October baby). While we are very excited I must admit this pregnancy took me by surprise – actually it was more like shock and fear!

Dealing with pregnancy loss
TweetThey say having a baby is one of the most enjoyable and amazing experiences of ones life, an event that brings a couple together. But thats not always true. Having Danny was both amazing and hard. Having Josh was unbelievably amazing. But there was a time in between. One of the most challenging and hardest times of our marriage. Falling pregnant came with its own challenges. We battled. There were countless tests, Doctors visits, monitoring cycles, many negative pregnancy tests, needles, medications and eventually we received our first positive. I’ll never forget sitting in the bathroom of our tiny flat with Carl by my side waiting to see 2 pink…

Baby Shower recap : Think Pink
TweetHi all, So I thought instead of letting time go by I would do a quick recap of the “Think Pink” babyshower we hosted for my sister 2 weeks back. Let me just say I am baby obsessed and if I could I would pop out another 3, but my Husband would definitely pack his bags and leave. I think the 3 of us keep him busy as is. The babyshower itself was held at the Durbanville Rose Garden, an ideal venue for any type of “tea” functions, even 1st birthday parties. In preparation for the shower we did a few DIY crafts to save on costs, even though planning…
