Lil Gooseberry ~ 32 Week Update

Lil Gooseberry ~ 32 Week Update

Please excuse the incredibly cheesy grin (guess that's what happens when you are trying to take photos without a toddler and puppy trying to help you). Where has the last four weeks gone? It feels like time is going even faster now. And by the look of this photo I have totally popped out in the last four weeks. How far along:  Coming up 33 weeks, time is just flying by. I am now on to fortnightly Midwife visits, that makes the time seem to go even faster! Baby is the size of: A bok … [Read more...]

Lil Gooseberry ~ 28 Week Update

So the weeks just keep rolling along and as usual I can not quite believe I am as far along as I am. We are officially in the third trimester everyone. The down hill run so to speak and that is both exciting and nerve wrecking at the same time. Exciting because there are so much newborn loveliness out there at the moment (it's that time of year, babies everywhere) and nerve wrecking because I will officially be a Mummy of two and some days I still can not get my head around the idea of being a … [Read more...]

Lil Gooseberry ~ 24 Week Update

How can I be 24 weeks already? I mean seriously! It feel like just yesterday I was staring at the little stick with those two lines, jumping up and down (on the inside) as my Mum was staying and I wanted to tell Steve first. And now here we are well into the second half. Crazy to think only 17 weeks (TOPS) till we get to meet this little one and our lives are changed for the second time. I am secretly (not so secretly) wishing this little one is early or at least on time. I would … [Read more...]

Lil Gooseberry ~ 20 Week Update

We have had a pretty eventful few weeks with Sebastian and I taking a trip with my parents to Adelaide to see my Aunty and our Australian family. It was nice to see and catch up with everyone and for them to meet Sebastian. Sebastian was a real gem flying which was a relief as you never really know how they are going to go until the day and it was his first time on a plane, so very exciting! We have also been lucky enough to see bubs for the first time as last week we had our anatomy scan. And … [Read more...]

Lil Gooseberry ~ 16 Week Update

Lil Gooseberry ~ 16 Week Update

So here it is... My first bump update for lil gooseberry. In case you didn't see my Facebook post a week or so back, I am one of those Mumma's that name their bump. As Steve and I choose not to find out the sex of our baby until it decides to make its entrance into this world, it helps me feel connected with the life I am luckily enough to be growing.  I have decided to post updates roughly monthly. The time already seems to be zipping by... (I don't think I could post … [Read more...]
