The weeks seem to be flying by, in some ways it seems that 14 weeks until we meet Twinkle isn't long to go now, but then I think that's still more than three months left and I'm already huge – I hope my bump slows down a little. People are always shocked when I say … Continue reading

A week of smiles (#18)
Another busy week for us with Milly's birthday and Mother's Day and of course lots to smile about: On Wednesday it was the reception class's Parents' Lunch at Tinker's school. She was sooooo excited, which was lovely, and she was counting down the sleeps for days beforehand. When I walked into the hall where she … Continue reading
25 weeks pregnant
I am a day late with this update (sorry, it's been a busy week!) but this week baby Twinkle is about as big as a baseball glove or a cabbage, around 35.5cm tall and weighs around 900g (close to 2 pounds). If my bump is anything to go by she is certainly growing just fine! … Continue reading
A week of smiles (#17)
It has been a very full and busy yet really lovely week, full of birthdays and family dinners with lots to smile about, so in no particular order here is what has been making me smile this week: As it was Mr T's birthday on Wednesday we had a family dinner for him on Tuesday … Continue reading
Me and Mr T….
It's Mr T's 33rd birthday today (which makes him 9.5 years younger than me, go me! Who said cougar??) Weekday birthdays are a bit rubbish, especially as it has fallen on a Wednesday which means he will have to stay for a late meeting after work and will probably be home just in time to … Continue reading

Hopefully she isn't contemplating making an appearance just yet though – stay where you are please Twinkle, mama needs to grow you a … Continue reading

Another busy week for us, but lots of things to make me smile. In no particular order here are some of them: Grandad T – since coming home from hospital in late January, a month after his stroke on Boxing Day, the last six weeks have seen him working hard on his recovery with a … Continue reading
23 weeks pregnant
The weeks are going by so fast, only 17 weeks left to go. Baby Twinkle is kicking away more and more, I love to feel her moving, it's my absolute favourite thing about being pregnant. She is now about 30.5cm long which is about the size of a Barbie doll or a chinchilla, and weighs … Continue reading
A week of smiles (#15)
This week saw us all going back to work/school after half term which was a bit harsh especially as we definitely hit the ground running at work but we are already counting down to the Easter holidays! Here are a few of the things that have been making me smile this week: We have a … Continue reading
22 weeks pregnant
This week the baby is about as big as a corn on the cob (about a foot tall, or 30.5cm) and weighs around a pound or 450g. She certainly seems to be growing well if my bump is anything to go by (although that could just be all the half term treats I ate last … Continue reading
