Okay so after several phone calls I decided it was time to follow the lead of others and start our blog. After all what else do you do when you are baby focused, fat, and sitting at home, sick with a cold? Somehow working on that last assignment for uni just doesn't cut it. Besides living interstate from friends and family, I love catching up with whats happening via your blogs!
Of course at this point I'm writing not to announce the birth of our baby just yet, but to universally deny that the baby has arrived. No, to all those who have brisvegas connections, our baby is not yet born, we are still waiting... but good to see the rumor mill is up and running! At this stage we have three weeks to go (although I'm currently trying unsuccessfully to trick myself into believing its actually 4 weeks away) and no indication of her coming any earlier. Of course I'm all packed just incase...
For all of those who believed the above rumors generally be assured of two things that will let you know it has happened, one; Dan will be very excited and will undoubtedly ring/sms everyone in both our mobile phones (in my case that may include several people he doesn't know and whom I barely know but have the numbers of)
and two; Dad will email everyone in his address book (including many people who don't know us) our news (followed by photos ASAP) we know this from his history of grandchildren arriving.
Anyway for now I've decided that the modern form of nesting doesn't involve cleaning, but shopping and reading copious amounts on baby care, over and over again. Currently it is the only thing I am motivated to do, but after a spree of lay buying I'm all finnished, so I try and placate myself by browsing and food shopping. At this point with the waiting I envy Copland and Theresa's approach of just not knowing til the last minute!
Otherwise all is well, other than occassionally turning into a raging hormonal psychopath...
PS Dan is not a fan of the blog, he thinks its a bad idea and says there is already enough boring rubbish on the internet...but I say whats wrong with a little more...he'll come round!

Hey, nice blog. I look forward to a phot of Dan with poo all down his front!
Oh so do I watch out world, Daddy Dan will be a different man.
Nice pic guys too, wow not long now.
HI Guys,
must confess I haven't been bitten by the blog bug myself yet, but here I am.
I had a phone call from Bris asking if I had heard you had the baby and I answered the same. I am sure we would definitely know if that had happened.
God Bless - I am sure you'll get the cleaning bug soon, or maybe it already passed 'cause you did painting instead.
Anyway,
Love to you both, we'll be praying for you.
And Lyd don't worry, it's not that bad - otherwise I wouldn't have done it three times.
