The Wait is Over

Well it's nearly over.

Our offer got accepted on the house and everything went through with the finance. We were all geared up and ready to go, when we found out that my middle name had been left off the paperwork. The bank was quite particular about it so we have had to do it again, but at least we have the assurance that it is all going to be ok.

I also have a husband again!!!! For now anyway. Jonathan came home on Friday. I get him for a whole week before he leaves again for 2 weeks. It's hard, but fortunately this is the very last time he has to go.

We are on the home stretch. 

Waiting

Just lately all I feel like I am doing is waiting. I'm waiting for things to happen with our offer on the house, I'm waiting for this baby to be born, I'm waiting for Jonathan to finish his contract away so I can have a husband again (just two weeks left!!!).

Though today some of my waiting paid off. Every now and again Huggies have a promotion where you can redeem the barcodes from Huggies products for toys. Every time Julianna finishes a box of nappies I always cut out the barcodes before I throw the box away. For the last year now there has been no promotion but I have been diligently cutting out my barcodes with Jonathan teasing me ruthlessly everytime I do. But today a promotion was announced!!!! It starts on the 5th of April and I already have enough barcodes to redeem for 5 toys. That means Julianna's birthday present is taken care of (with maybe a couple left over to go on Ebay) just for being patient. 

Fingers Crossed

Today we put an offer in on a house!! We are very excited, but now we just have to wait and see.

Our favourite part isn't just the house itself, but also the location. 

Here.....

I Have the Best Husband Ever

I already knew this but today Jonathan re-affirmed it. He has been working away all week and just arrived back last night. We have missed him so much and I know he hates going just as much as we hate having him gone. Even though he just got back last night, this morning he gave me the morning off. But not only did I have the morning off, I had the morning to spend, all by myself, in the city at one of Perth's leading salons to enjoy a $425.00 pamper package!! The package included getting my hair done, having a massage and getting a manicure. Then to top it all off, I got home to find Jonathan had cleaned the house. He has definitely racked up some pretty huge brownie points this weekend.

Picture of the Day

Thanks Grandma for the hat you made me, it comes in very handy.

PJ Day

Just lately Julianna and I have been getting over a bit of a cold. Don't ask we how we got a cold in the middle of summer. Anyway, this morning I made an executive decision that we would lounge around in our pj's on the couch and watch tv......Julianna agreed. 

Baby Update

I had another appointment with the doctor today and the good news is that the baby finally uncrossed its legs......it's a GIRL!! The bad news is that she is a BIG girl. So big in fact, that my chances of having a natural birth are not looking good. My doctor has referred me to a specialist to get his opinion, but at this stage, he thinks it will be a caesarean section on the earlier date of the 16th May.
