Hi ya

Well another Sunday evening is upon us and back to work for another week tomorrow... :(

Had a nice night at Steph's parents last night and had some real yummy curries - but nothing too spicey for me which was great. We were home by 9.30ish which was great cause neither of us wanted a late night but the drinking etc was going strong when we left!

Managed to have a wee sleep in this morning getting up about 9.30am this morning which was nice. Had mum coming over for lunch so popped up to the Supermarket and grabbed the ingredients we needed to make the Sweet Chilli Corn fritters that I had decided to make for lunch. They were rather yummy flavour wise but perhaps just a wee bit heavy in texture. Served them with grilled bacon and lite sour cream! Very nice and very filling :)

After lunch, the three of us popped down to Lower Hutt to put the carseat we want on layby - well actually the one we had initally decided we would get had gone off their sale price and were back at full price however the next model up was still on sale so for an extra $20 (diff between full price for the inital one and the sale price of the other one) we got the "flasher" one and boy it looks so comfy :) Whilst at Baby Factory, Mum bought a couple of wee things for the baby and gave them to me when we got home so that was pretty cool and exciting! :) Home for a cuppa (well for mum anyway) and then Mum left about 4ish. Managed to make a batch of Chocolate Slice for our lunch boxes this week and am now rather shattered!

Easy dinner of a Steak Pie, mashed spud and veggies, and then a bubble bath is definitely on the agenda tonight to wind down...

Right time to get moving... hope you all have a great week. Take care.

Oooh baby stuff is so much fun to buy!

And not long at all to go till bubs is here. My brother in law and his partner are visiting in November and we are already planning all the things we are going to do with all the family, and THAT doesn't seem too far away - and your bub will be arriving then - Carla's too - oooh so exciting!
