This week has mainly seen us counting down to halfterm (working in a school means we sometimes seem to spend all our time counting down to the next holiday!) There has been plenty to smile about as usual: Shugborough – yes I know I wrote about our Shugborough trip in my last Week of Smiles post but … Continue reading

Only six weeks left until we meet baby Twinkle, which doesn't seem long at all. I feel like there is still quite a lot to organise before she arrives but it still feels like we've got enough time so no need to panic just yet, just as long as she doesn't decide to make an … Continue reading
A week of smiles (#24)
It's been another busy week for us that makes me wonder where on earth the time has gone but as always there has been plenty to smile about. Date night – last night me and Mr T went out for dinner just the two of us. It's something that we said we were going to … Continue reading

Only 7 weeks to go until we meet baby Twinkle, which somehow seems like no time at all and yet still seems like forever at the same time! This week has been a much better week in terms of how I'm feeling, my back has felt really good most of the time and my itching … Continue reading

A week of smiles (#22)
This week has seemed to fly by, possibly because the May Day bank holiday meant it was a short working week. Lots of things to make me smile, in no particular order: Langan's Tea Rooms – On Saturday we went out for lunch to Langan's one of our favourite local places. Before we moved house … Continue reading

So the countdown is now into single figures as there are only nine weeks left to go until we meet little baby Twinkle. Which really doesn't sound long at all! This week she is about as big as a Romaine lettuce, might measure around 44.5cm and could weigh over 3.5lbs (1.6kg) but will be busy … Continue reading
A week of smiles (#21)
We were back to work this week after Easter but there has still been plenty to smile about! Nathan – he left for his job in Spain as an entertainer at a Thomson hotel on Tuesday morning. He will be out there for six months and I will miss him so so much, but I … Continue reading

I am officially three quarters of the way through now, yay! With just ten weeks left time seems to be going really fast. This week baby Twinkle could be as much as 3.5lbs (1.6kg) and 43cm (17 inches) which is apparently around the size of a cantaloupe or a platypus (minus the tail!) She is … Continue reading
