Our week through Photo's.





It was a pretty productive week, Isis went to School,

had a day off to chill with mama and we played some games at home.

Cooked dinner for the husband. Isis put on some cute outfits.

Was in cleaning mode this week. Cleaned out all Isis old clothes,

my stack of shoes that are never worn but take up so much space.

We also put Isis old cot up this week - Ekkk excited!

Had few visitors this week as well so it was good!

Also mama is so addicted to SongPop this week it's insane. Ha!

33 Weeks + 4 days today :)

TGIF.

#Countdown.

I Love you Icy-Bear!

33 Weeks.

How far along? 33 Weeks + 2 days.
Maternity Clothes? Pretty much haven't brought anything to overboard as I am hoping to shred this weight off after I give birth, #Hopeful! Ha! But I did buy a pair of genie elastic pants, comfortable for those night celebrations and events :)
Stretch Marks? No new ones to report, thankfully, surprisngly this time round I am not stratching my tum or find it irritating or itchy at all! Woop.
Sleep? Very uncomfortable now. I have to be extremely tired before I force myself to go to sleep, otherwise finding a comfortable position usually takes forever if I'm not fully tired.
Best Moment this week? Seeing my princess, had her scan this week and it showed she is 2.5kgs already #BigGirl. Ha! But she is doing fine which is the main thing - Phew!
Miss Anything? Bending down and lying on my tum!
Movement? Plenty - Very heavy on my bladder which makes me go bathroon constanly.
Food Cravings? Still hot spicy thai food!
Anything making you queasy or sick? Getting the flu :( So feeling quite blah at the moment. *Sniff* *Cough* Virus going round!  
Gender? Still a girl! hehe.
Labour Signs? Nope!
Symptoms? Heartburn more this week!
Belly Button in or out? Out :)
Happy or moody most of the time? Both, Hubby brought me some electronic gifts this week to keep me occupied before baby comes :) #Lucky. But having the flu and being 8months pregnant, not a good mix :(
Looking forward to? Getting better before the weekend!

6 weeks to go..

The Husband.

I'm moody, hormonal and sometimes insane,

but this dude will continue to love me the same.

Im 8 months pregnant and feel larger then life,

but this dude is so proud that I am his wife.

Unexpectedly he surprises me with gifts from the top,

To a Iphone4 and a Mini-laptop.

He does the most simpliest things I can't fault him on,

like dishes, clean up and making me laugh with a song.

He always put me and his daughter first,

He's kept to his vows - for better or for worst.

He's quiet, creative and never one to judge,

He teaches me things and makes me feel loved.

He knows I hate public PDA,

and tries to annoy me by doing it anyway.

He knows what to say that will really push my buttons,

but at the end of the day the nigs knows I love him.

Through our lows to our highs - we've faced them together,

Nothing else phases me besides the change of weather.

we've made it this far and I appreciate you,

To the many more challenges & years to pull through.

Your awesome you grumpy old man! Ha!

We love you.

Stretch Marks? No new ones to report, thankfully.
Sleep?  Did have a okay sleep this week, managed to get through the night with one toilet break :)
Best Moment this week? Having a day off with husband, going to my hospital appointments and chilling out in the sun - fantastic 'US' time. Haven't had those in awhile. Ha!
Miss Anything? Playing Sports :( Gained so much this pregnancy, it's going to be hard to get back into the active scene. Haha!
Movement? She's head down now- so I can always feel random movements everywhere :)
Food Cravings? Hot food is always a winner :) I miss Seafood though-badly!
Anything making you queasy or sick? Hmmm, wish there was - but I love food this week!
Gender? Still a girl! hehe.
Labour Signs? Nope! Although Dr's have said baby is getting quite big. Ha!
Symptoms? Same symptoms, Lower Back pain, Fatigue - but been manageable this week!
Belly Button in or out? Out :)
Happy or moody most of the time? Happy - Hubby has been fantastic! Feel more relaxed this week, just heaps of appointments this month to keep me on my feet :) 
Looking forward to? My scan this Thursday, to see how baby is doing seeing as how her measurements show she is getting a bit big, but that's what happened to my first princess and she was alright, think she just wants us to see her again before she comes the little miss! #Excited.

8 more weeks.

Sunshine Sunday.

Sun was out again today, beautiful clear skies and it was

another Sunday routine of taking Isis to Sunday School.

Sunday School this year is fantastic, the teachers in the Kindy or

Sunshine garden as it's known are very prepared and always excited

to teach and nurture our children with the word of God. Always

good to start Sunday off with Church, especially with the kids

learning and knowing more about our beliefs & religion through

stories and songs - we also get a wonderful feed at the end of every class

 which is always a bonus for the preggo mothers in the class - Ha!

After Sunday school, me, Isis and Aunty Laumua always have

the hard task of thinking of what to either make or buy for

Lunch for the family, it's hard because every Sunday we try be creative

and not buy the same thing, and seeing as how I'm on my 3rd Trimester

I'm totally not in that mood to cook up a storm anymore, so we settled for

Joe's Cook in Miramar today - Chinese Takeaway's. We brought a

Mixed Fish & Chips pack, Sweet & Sour Pork, Curry Roti and

Bami Goreng. Mmmm! #FattySundayLunch.

That's basically what we do most Sunday's. Church and then Sleep.

Nothing to interesting after that - we chill out while most of the household

go to Afternoon Service - Samoan Church Service.

First Ones to Sleep - Afternoon Nap!

These  two didn't wait for me today, they slept while watching

the Olympics and I was left to stare at Isis mess she made in the

Livingroom. Little Monkey.

I spent a few minutes just staring at them both - Yes, I had a emo moment, Ha!

I'm just so overwhelmed to have a husband and daughter whom I love deeply.

Thankful for good health so I can enjoy this journey of life with them.

In the evening me and Isis made made Banana Chocolate Chip muffins

for the grandparents to eat with their tea. Mmmm!

Wash hands.

Stirring her muffin batter.

Ready!

Just another chilled out Sunday.

'Ohana means Family -
Family means no one gets left behind'

Love you Isis & daddy.

Anything making you queasy or sick? Not really, although not really feeling KFC that much anymore. Good thing! Ha!
Gender? Girl! 
Labour Signs? Thought I did because of the pain I felt this week, but again it was just my lower back - needed support! Thanks to my girl (Kiki) for providing me with a Pregnancy Belt today. Haven't tried it yet, but hope it helps. #FingersCrossed.
Symptoms? Constant back pain and being short of breath this week. So annoying! Lol.
Belly Button in or out? Out :)
Happy or moody most of the time? This week, the only thing that kept me happy was knowing it was my babygirl's 3rd birthday, so despite being in pain and not feeling like doing much - that was the only reason keeping me on my feet this week. 
Looking forward to? Seeing Dr Schenk this week - Antenatal Clinic, to go through birthing plan as I had a Caesarean for my first bub!
