minichessemouse - Ahoy there me barnacle!

*blows dust off journal*

Oh smiley - erm hello, I haven't posted any news for quite some time! smiley - sorry

so what has been happening in the world of the smiley - mouse?

Well Tomorrow I will be 17 weeks pregnant, which means I'm approaching halfway! smiley - wow The mouseling is now a definite bump which just keeps slowly getting bigger.

We have found a Council Flat in Kilmarnock and are signing the tenancy agreement tomorrow. It needs a bit of work doing to it, such as removing the wallpaper, painting the walls, putting down carpets, acquiring a cooker, washing machine and fridge freezer, and of course furniture. But we hope to get it all completed in the next 2-4 weeks.

I'm looking forward to having a home of our own that we can decorate to our tastes, as i'm getting a tad sick of magnolia! I'm most looking forward to decorating the nursery but as the mouseling isn't due to make their grand appearance until Late November at the earliest, i can take my time and get it perfect.

To further confound matters my older sister (who by the way is also expecting a baby) gets the keys to her new house in 4-5 weeks, so I need to be finished moving by then so my parents can help her out.

Lots of fun and games, and lots going on!

Great news - and a council flat is likely to be fairly permanent as well!

Congrats!smiley - bubbly

How come that everyone tends to move house while expecting their first baby...smiley - biggrin

... and it's a lot easier to fix walls, kitchen etc. while the baby is in safekeeping inside. I once waited until after the baby was born, and they tend to get more helpful the older they get...

I had a toddler who also wanted to paint, so when I was doing something else he found a cloth and a bottle of babyoil and started to paint the newly redecorated walls in one of the bedrooms - of course the only room where there was not washable wallpaper...
