Some snaps from our Saturday afternoon walk along the canal, all bundled up enjoying the December weather and taken using my fancy pants new iPhone. Man I love this thing. And all the genius camera and video apps I have downloaded. Claire, I know you’re playing with the 8mm video camera as much as me. The belly was taken to feed the ducks, splash in puddles and generally have a ball. Give it a couple of months and they’ll be a pram on walks like these.

Saturday morning was just as fun, with my first blogger date – a catch up with the fab Amy from here and here, and her little bundle of loveliness (wearing the most awesome trousers ever I might add) who slept soundly through the whole thing. I’ve watched many bloggers meet up over the last couple of years and always feel a pang of jealousy, so I was so happy when Amy emailed me. We chatted away in a cool little cafe like we’d known each other for ages, so here’s to new friendships and hopefully many more coffees and cakes.

ps. Today, someone at work told me I was the most content, moan-free pregnant lady they had ever met, and that I seemed utterly happy and peaceful. What lovely things to say.

pps. Hello Braxton Hicks!

  3. Good god you were right about the pants. Weirdly enough, I think I actually saw a kid wearing them in Bondi last week. I yelled out 'great pants!' (as you do) to his mum as they flashed past us on a scooter, but she never had time to tell me where they came from. Kellie xx PS gorgeous comment from your work mate! Moan free is really pretty impressive.

  4. Can I just say seeing wellies (or "gumboots" as we australians call them) makes me so glad! I really should get some, what with all the crazy rain we've been having... I second your work colleague; you are a particularly happy and peaceful lady, pregnant and all!
