Today I turn 30!
But apart from that, well...
my very exciting news that I have been attempting to keep
secret for the last three months, is that Big-P and I are
going to have a baby in late September.
Yes, that's right! A baby.
We went in to have our 12
week ultrasound yesterday and watched our tiny little 6.5cm
fetus kicking around and waving tiny hands at us. It was the
most overwhelming, amazing, beautiful thing I have ever seen.
We got a video of the little wriggly action and have watched
it three times so far. "Is that it's leg? Oh my goodness!
Look how big it's brain is! And how supple that spine is!".
To think all that movement and growing and life is going on
inside me right now - It is frightening and exciting and not
quite believable.

Can you imagine how hard it
has been finding other things to write about here when my
whole body is going through the most incredible changes and
the idea of being a mother has been ringing in my head since
January?
