Feeling content

Well, I'm now 26 weeks along with pregnancy number three and I feel great. It's been a strange couple of days as I realise this is the stage at which Tasha was born. I'm happy to be healthy, active and pregnant. It's really a great time to count my blessings.
Baby boy is due at the end of April and I'm having lots of fun gathering stuff for the new addition to the family.

On another note, my love affair with Google docs has been taken to a whole new level this evening as Paul showed me the possibilities for programming it to do exactly what you want. He might make a programmer out of me yet! I use google docs for everything... I've been called the google docs queen by one friend. I'm a bit of an evangelist, to the extent that I just can't understand why the whole world hasn't embraced it like I have. I guess I just need to keep spreading the word. I have Dr Xorile to thank, since he was the one to introduce me to it.

Tried Nigella’s Nutella cheesecake today- absolutely fabulous and so easy! Will definitely appear on our menu again soon.

Tiredness beckons, time to sleep. Bye bye.

Barra brith and being blessed

Barra Brith They say you start 'nesting' when you are pregnant, well, it's true - I've been into baking these last couple of weeks. Today I decided to make Barra Brith (Welsh tea loaf) for my colleagues, since it is my birthday. What a disaster! First it overflowed, surgically welding itself to the intereior of our oven, then it burnt on top whilst remaining raw on the inside, then it rufused to be extracted from the loaf tin. I wouldn't be surprised about any of this with my track-record in baking, but I made exactly the same thing using exactly the same recipe last week and it was 100% successful. It still tasted great though - once I managed to extract it from its tin. I'm not, however, looking forward to dealing with the oven! That can wait until the weekend. Hard times I've had a number of emails from friends recently telling me of the death of close friends and accidents that people have had; it has made me realise just how fortunate and blessed we are...

Early morning toy soldiers

Pippa has gone off for cross country, so Tasha is using the glorious early morning play time to play toy soldiers.

Wow we're parents!

What a week! We now have a beautiful baby daughter, Philippa Jane Evans, who was born on 28th June 2007 at 10.48pm weighing 3.52kg (7lb 12oz). She is feeding and sleeping like a dream and currently seems to be a very relaxed baby. We love to just sit and look at the funny facial expressions that she pulls, and we are loving learning to be parents. We have received some lovely gifts and flowers, pictures of the flowers are below...I love being surrounded by fresh flowers! I've recovered pretty well and was out and about yesterday shopping and meeting people for lunch. I went to high tea at the Shangri La hotel for a friend's leaving do. Philippa had her first public nappy change in the rather posh marble-clad bathroom at the shangri la and her first public breastfeed in the dining room (discreetly hidden in a sling, as they're not too keen on breastfeeding over here). I've included my favourite photos from the first couple of days, obviously we've taken hundreds...bu...
