Ace Hiatus

Well, haven't I had a long break?! Let me fill you in on what has been happening...

Deep Breath...

Well over the past few months I have been growing a baby! Currently pregnant with our first child and due at the end of June, well June 27th to be exact!

Very very exciting! LP and I are both thrilled as are our families. We just completed our parenting classes which were hilarious and boring at the same time.

I have 3 weeks of work left and nothing is going to taste quite as sweet as the day I walk out of here in the arvo and not have to come back...well apart from giving birth to our baby but you get my drift!

Sitting at 32 weeks currently so there is still a little bit of cooking to go, feeling pretty good apart from some aches and pains!

Baby is growing well and is perfectly happy rolling around in the murky blackness that is my belly. We don't know what we are having so its a big surprise!

Here are some scans from the 20 week scan, I think it looks cute already but being its mother, I'm biased :-)

Well just wanted to let you the Internet world that I am in fact not dead, just tired and stuck at work.

Wishing you all well and hope everything is well in your worlds, hoping to up date this more and more often going forward so stay tuned!

Much love

Golfing

Sunday arvo LP wanted to go and hit a bucket of balls at Narrabeen Putt Putt place. Off we went, me still in my dress which did pose a little issue when trying to hit some golf balls.

LP's Christmas pressie was also bought, a nice new shiny pair of golf shoes....

Well, he liked them :-)





To The Markets We Go

What is the perfect start to a Sunday morning? Get up kinda early and get yourself to the Frenches Forrest Markets near Skyline shops.

When I go here with LP it makes me feel like I'm doing the right thing. I think the main reason is that wayyyyy back in the day this is how people all did their shopping, Woolies and Coles didn't exist and people went to markets to get their weekly food and veggies.

We had the most fabulous egg and bacon roll whilst listening to this great singer, his guitar and harmonica.

We didn't buy much just a huge thing of cherries, some milk, an almond croissant for LP and some organic lamb sausages.

Do yourself a favour and go and check it out, will make you feel brilliant!! The markets are on every Sunday from about 8am.

A Very DLG Christmas

How lucky are we that today was glorious weather! After weeks and weeeeekkks of bloody rain, Huey pulls out a perla!

Today we had the very first DLG Family Christmas Lunch. 17 of us gathered at Manly Wine Bar for a beautiful lunch filled with champas, wine and Sangria! We ate like kings with everything from salt and pepper squid, mezza plates, beautiful steak and chips, gorgeous fish and salad and to top it off fresh strawberries with cream and a chocolate brownie!

Was so nice having everyone together as these days its a bit of a rarity. After we had stuffed ourselves with delish food and lots of booze we wondered off to the brand new and now upmarket Shark Bar...well actually it is now called the New Brighton Hotel. We sat up on the balcony in the sun drinking more sangria, shots and booze! There was even a game of Shithead played with mini cards but one Miss Rang decided that she had enough and promptly started cheating.

After a rather fabulous day I called it and took myself home, videos taken after I had left saw 3 DLG's get into some rather huge balls and jumps around in a water tank in the middle of Manly Corso.

Hilarious!

Thanks for a wonderful lunch ladies, special mention to Miss Mandy for organising and a Merry Christmas to all the ladies!

Hopefully the first of manly DLG Family Christmas lunches to come

Camilla Camilla

First off apologies for the week long break, I don't have the Internet at home!

Yes, yes I know.....

After the glorious pizza and pasta for lunch I finished work (finnnnaaallly) and took myself to Darlinghurst to fight the ladies at the Camilla Sale.

Wow...what a shitfight! There was kaftans, dresses and harem pants literally everywhere! Ladies pushing and shoving (then apologising for it) but it was crazy! So many bright colours and flowy beautiful dresses I almost lost my mind!

Luckily I kept my head long enough to walk out with 2 gorgeous kaftans.....I did have 3 in my hands and if I had bought three I would have been in trouble!

The two that I bought are amazing and I'm beyond excited to wear them!

Last Day Lovliness

Had every intention of not eating a lot so I can go crazy at lunch but then I got gifted a beautiful box of Ferrero Rocher by the evesent JMB and I was all over.

2 down - 13 to go.... (I gave 2 away :-) )



LAST DAY OF WORK, 2011

Rather than entitle this as Wearing, it had to be changed due to the excitement and relief that I feel today. I woke up this morning and drrraaagggged myself to get ready as I was so tired but I can deal with anything today because come Monday I don't have to wake up at 5:30am and go alllll the way to Macquarie Park!

WOOOOHOOO!

To top all of that off, its Christmas next week and I get to hang with LP and my family, eat lots of great food and cake! Plus the Annual Christmas Day Surf Race at Freshie Surf Club with the George Rickard memorial necktie give away.

Next week is my time to tackle all of my Christmas shopping which will be a mission but one I have put myself in because I have not even started. Going out for pizza today with my team and I'm also excited about that but even better, there is a Camilla sale on in Darlinghurst today and after work that is where I'll be heading!

In the great words of the famous Winston Churchill...

I shall fight them in the door way, I shall fight them in the change rooms, I will fight at the cash register and for the on street parking, I will never surrender whilst there are Camilla bargains to be had....
