I finally took some belly shots. I am 34 weeks and 3 days (about 8 months). I am so glad to be nearly there. I can't wait to meet this little one and see what kind of big sister Abby will be. I am also ready to share some of the burden of caring for this wee one :)
I was sitting on the couch working on the computer when I happened to turn around and see this.......

Trying to tie the decorative bows :)
What fun
David took some video.
This was the first time she has tried walking in big shoes!
I may or may not have mentioned that we have a Harding Campaign group here. They arrived last Monday and yesterday there was a ceilidh night at the Church building. We decided that even though it wasn't starting until close to Abby's bedtime we would go along and see how well she would last. We did not stay till the end as it was not going to finish till 11pm but we did get to stay until about 9:30pm. It was a great night that started out with a meal of stovies and desserts before moving to Scottish dancing and some fun games. We weren't sure what Abby would make of all the noise and commotion but I will let the video clips speak for themselves.
These pictures were taken before we went out. Just look as our wee Scottish lass!

At the Ceilidh
And now for the video's.........
More pictures of the rest of the night later.
So a week ago on Wednesday we sat down to dinner before heading out to bible class. Abby, who had been fine all day, suddenly decided that she did not want her dinner and looked extremely pale. She sat on her Dada's knee for the rest of dinner time just looking miserable. Her colour did not look good but we managed to get her to eat some fruit while she watched praise baby from the couch. We decided that she was not well enough to go out an we worried that she was coming down with something serious. Within about an hour the following took place as you can see from the video clips........
This was Abby's Christmas present from her Grannie and Grandad. It is supposed to be for up to age 3 and they were told that it would not topple over! If they could see it now......
I am sure I blogged before about the fact that since she was 17 months she has been counting to 10. We have been working on more numbers and she now counts to 15. Although sometimes she gets confused and calls it fiveteen, hee hee.
She love to pray and hear prayers and will often take moments through the day to say the following prayer: "Dear God, Thank you for my food, thank you for my family, thank you for my everybody, Amen". She also knows that God made various animals, sun, moon and stars, etc.
She has most of her books memorized and will often sit re sighting them, the same with lots of rhymes and songs. She will even recall many of the books that we get at the library.
I can't think of any of the other things I was going to update you all on so here is where this post will end. Sorry for the abrupt end.
I finally got most of the house clean and tidy enough to take some pictures. I still need to take pictures in Abby's room but she was napping at the time so I could not get any, also I didn't take any of David's office as it is a mess, thankfully I can just shut the door and forget about it and I also still need to take some of the small bedroom as it is in the middle of being converted into the nursery so I will wait until then. Here are the rest enjoy them.
We painted and put down new flooring
Electric shower over the bath.
Kitchen. Looks out over the front garden. We haven't done anything in here.
Back door which we tend to use all the time as it is closer to where the cars park.
Looking from dining room into back entrance way.
Standing at bottom of the stairs looking at door to front porch
Standing at door to front porch looking into hall. Dining room straight ahead. Stairs up to bedrooms, Bathroom and David's office.
Standing at dining room door looking into hall
Dining room. Again we have not made any changes in here. Looks over back garden.
Small hatch links with kitchen. We recently took the doors off as the weather is warmer. One day I would like to make the kitchen and dining room more open plan. (I can but dream).
The table and most of the chairs were left by the previous owners - what a blessing.
Again we have not decorated in here yet. It will probably be the last room to be done.
Living room. Not changed it either but it will be done soon I hope. Runs the width of the house with doors at each end.
Downstairs WC. Painted and floored with leftovers from bathroom.
Our bedroom. We just painted and got a new chest of drawers. Looks over front garden.
