Bump photo No.3

OK...so it has been some time since you all last saw a photo of our little ones growth. Let's just say our little bump would still like more room (especially around my right rib area) and as long as I take it easy I don't get too much of a kicking/betting in the evening.....

Simon is now trailing behind on the 'bump' score with me in week 33.....

The Pressdees

Sorry everyone it has been so long since our last posting but it has just been so busy at work and sorting out the house. The nesting instinct is definitely underway with a spring clean completed in our bedroom and half of the kitchen completed also. I'm sure you don't want to see photos of these but we had a lovely lunch and walk with Simon, Claire and their new addition Sammy (their Cockapoo dog) around the local park. You can just about make Sammy out in the background....fortunately he didn't find any squirrels to chase

Sam the man...

We were delighted to hear the news of the arrival of Samuel Richard George Agnew on 9th October.

That makes me next in line within the family......both exciting and nerve wrecking at the same time,,,

The final flight home

Week 27/28 and nearing my last opportunity to travel home and see the family/friends. As always though I didn't take the camera out as much as a I should have but have a look at the house. What a difference taking a few trees down at the back of the house does.

Dad sporting the Agnew tie...

The camera is back

so the first picture had to be of the Janaway bump. Week 27 and I think I am starting to win on the bump competition

Louise's 30th Birthday/engagement party

Can you believe it. The last of my good friends to turn the corner and make it to 30. We had a great time meeting up again in London for Louise's 30th party. OH....and a double celebration too with Ben and Louise also getting engaged. No photos of Ben unfortunately but some below of the old gang from Uni. (Thanks Jess for sending these photos on)

Louise trying to feel our little one dancing to the beat of the music

Jess, Jo and I trying to fit into the frame while Jess held the camera......great shot.

Rubbish - No photos

Hi there

No photos from us this week but we do have an good reason. We have had to send out camera away to be looked at. My fault and we obviously want the camera to be ready well in time for December.

All is well with us though. Went for the follow up scan on Thursday 8th August. The little rascal was sticking it's tongue out at us too, I think the need to set the rules out as soon as possible will be needed with this one.

The bump is coming on well and the little one certainly likes food (the wee rascal likes to reminder when to eat and then does somersaults when I have eaten!!)

Some new pictures of the little one

Here are some more pictures of the little one during the 20 week scan. All going well although from the measurements we are going to have a long legged, pin head of a child.

Look at the little foot....digging around already but not too much to be a pain....

And look here at the the little hand. Other photos show our little one playing around with the fingers.

The Janaway mobile

Check out the 'new' Janaway mobile. Simon has only 20 weeks to go before he will REALLY need to drive around.

Who has the bigger bump after 19 weeks

Will leave the decision up to you..........;0)

Barcelona

What a beautiful city.

We did a lot of walking around, tryin to work out what the people were saying, enjoying tapas and drinks and especially the afternoon siestas.

Gaudi's work is truly amazing and inspiring. We mainly visited his places below being the Park Guell.

Possibly our last week trip before the little one comes along and makes 'city breaks' a thing of the past.....

Tomatoes or cucumber anyone???

With news of little Janaway on it's way we thought we would create a vegetable patch to have some healthy food. Simon worked really hard today lifting slabs, turning the soil, adding compost and then planting some cucumber, tomato, chilli pepper, red pepper and rocket leaf plants.

Didn't he do a great job everyone?....only a few months before we can start to eat them now!!

It's Official....

Here is a scan of our little one. Little Janaway was moving around nicely and even looked at us when I started to speak. This photo is from 12 weeks and 5 days so it will be a little while before you'll see anymore!!

I would post a photo of my 'bump' also but I'm still debating if it more 'jelly belly' than little Janaway wanting a little more room so you'll have to wait a little longer!!

Dinner with the Pressdee's

What a treat......now Claire is feeling much better we had a lovely family dinner at Goodwood to celebrate (thanks Mum Janaway!)

Although would you trust this face to drive you home afterwards??????

Following the mexicans

As Mum and Dad were over we had Simon's family join us for dinner on Saturday. We saw our little niece Tabitha have a great time with her pinata on her birthday so thought we would do the

same and have some fun with the adults.

Not sure if we used the correct 'rules' as

such but had great fun !!

Especially when we started to direct people in the wrong direction of the football pinata. We should make a killing with 'You've been framed' now..

London calling

What a great day we had in London. Mum and Dad came over the weekend and we had a lovely time seeing the sights from the London Eye!!

Old York...Old York

For a wee break we decided to take a trip to York for a weekend break....the first of the year.
York is very beautiful and we had a great time sampling the local attractions as well as Betty's team room.....so much so we went 3 times and we were only there 3 days. If you go to York you MUST try the milkshakes.


And of course there are plenty of parks and old buildings to wander around too!!

Happy Birthday Simon!!!

After a delicious meal at non-other than Mr Gordon Ramsey's restaurant you can't expect to be able to eat anything other than a few small cup cakes.......

Thanks for all the cards and presents everyone.

Camber Sands

After some fish and chips in Rye we found out Camber was only a few miles away and with that being one of only a few beaches in East Sussex to be sand.....well we just had to go. So off we went. Our only problem on arriving was we didn't have any change for the car park so had to buy something to get change. When we went to the shop there was only 1 obvious choice of purchase........drum rolls.........we bought a kite!!

Childhood returning to us off we set. The kite was flying high in the sky until Simon broke one of the strings and no matter how much we tried to fix it after this it never really worked after that correctly. A shame but it was getting cold anyway and our sensible heads returned again.

Ticket to Rye

Well since it's been a busy year so far, Simon and I decided to take a trip to Rye (a lovely little fishing town in East Sussex). We went into the Church and climbed up some strenuous stairs to get to the top and view the oldest working clock in Britain....working of course and the surrounding area.
