Morning everyone!
Hope everyone who was ill is feeling better. I have been full of a cold too and shattered. Both dd s have colds and temperatures, so I think we are in for long weekend, plus dh is working too.
Had midwife appointmentioned on Thursday, and I got to hear the heartbeat very clearly. She said it sounded like a train. Dd 2 was a galloping horse, which is supposed to be a girl, so maybe this one is a boy? Has anyone else heard of this old wives tale, and was/is it right for you ? Personally, I take it all as a bit of fun, and I am convinced were having amother girl.
I am another one in a doer upper. We have been here a about a year and half, but not done much yet. I think it's a good idea to get as much done as you can before you have children if possible, because your time has just gone when they arrive. Along with your money. That said, most of the changes we want to make are cosmetic, and most importantly we are still waiting for the architects plans to be finished for a new kitchen diner and utility configuration.
We are also in the Middle of doing the garden too sophie and naty. Dh has put lots of new land drains in a herring bone pattern, as our garden was incredibly wet. It has took a while, and he had the help of a friend with a digger as the garden is about 150 feet long so it it would have been too much to do it without. So, currentl, it's a mess, just churned up mud, but we ready to get new fencing and level it soon then hopefully can get it into a usable state with a play area, etc. I have plans ...
18 weeks to tomorrow! It's going too fast ... Congratulations to those who have just had their scans, and good luck to those with them coming up!
