Six months in and three to go!

Thought it about time for another update. Now officially on the six month mark and things are getting a little lumpier and bumpier as you can probably see from the photos!

Baby bump is behaving itself although it has now become quite an active little tike. The little butterfly bumps are becoming bigger and more forceful now to the point that Mike can feel the movements and I can quite often see the twitches if sitting quietly (not that I do that too often mind!) This is particularly funny when at work in the middle of quite an intense competency based interview to try and identify my replacement!!! A slight distraction to say the least!

I am quite happy that I seem to be growing predominantly in the one area!
Outwards! in the belly region! Hopefully I can keep the rest of it suitably under control and maybe, just maybe my body might revert to how it once was?! Although I can scarcely imagine that ever happening at the moment!

The other exciting thing happening this month is the hopeful completiton of our new apartment. We recently purchased a 2 bedroom garden apartment in Dee Why (2 suburbs from where we are now). It is newly built in a block of 27 apartments on three levels. We have a ground floor corner block. Only 1km walk from the beach and an express bus to the city we are hoping it is a good investment purchase now and for the future.
The pictures show the outside of the block with all the landscaping and turfing yet to be complete. We hope to move in by the end of the month.













Meanwhile, next blog, I should snap some pictures of Mike who seems to be doing the complete opposite to myself and getting slimmer and fitter! Between the gym almost everyday and surfing weekends he is looking incredibly healthy and well. Hope all is well with everyone everywhere!
Till next time.
