9 weeks till lift off...

We're already at week 31 - I have no idea where all the time has gone. The last 23 weeks have flown by and now we're nearly at the point where we can meet you. It all seems very surreal but I am getting very excited.

Your Daddy and I just got back from our last grown up holiday in Kos, Greece. You didn't like flying much and I must admit I didn't really like it either (I normally love it). It was quite funny when I tried to bring my table down for the meal and it got stuck on my belly. It was great to get away and relax in the sun for a couple of weeks.

We had an antenatal class and a tour of the delivery rooms and the birth centre the other day. I think I want a water birth (very cool disco balls above the tubs) and am planning on having you as naturally as possible but obviously we'll have to go with the flow and see what happens. Got to start making a birthing plan, buying moses basket, cot, push chair...very expensive business having a baby! I'm sure it will all be worth it though.

We can't wait to meet you and have found a new game to play with you. Daddy like putting his head on my tummy to make you kick his face and when you stick out a foot (we think that's what it is) he tickles it and you move it away. He also heard your heartbeat through my tummy the other day which he was very happy about - I think I would have to be a contortionist to attempt that one!

I'm going to email H and make her do an entry now - she's being a bad godmother and neglecting you!
