3rd Trimester Today!!!

Wow where has time gone… we made a decision to hold off until the new year to purchase things for the baby and we were so lucky that Target also decided to have a baby sale just as the new year arrived. We have made some amazing purchases on eBay and things are finally becoming real!

Our little man is growing strong and is creating quite an environment for himself… I’m sure my tummy wasn’t this big with Ethan or Hayden  at this stage so we will see how much more it grows.


His kicks are extremely powerful and sometimes quite painful , Josh has a good laugh when I’m sitting here going “ow” randomly .

We purchased his cot and changing table/dresser off eBay, for an extremely low price which has been excellent and I really didn’t want a second hand cot and the cost between 2nd hand and new where basically the same if not cheaper in some cases. And we got the matching changing table with three drawers to combine the two pieces with the one price, we used Ethan’s changing table right up until the day we sold it so we knew that it was a purchase we’d really get our money’s worth out of.




When visiting Target I was able to put the capsule on layby to match the pram we have just finished paying off, and purchase this EXTREME bargain…


It was on clearance for $39… can you believe it??? and there is NOTHING wrong with it.

Unfortunately clothing is where we are a bit lost with most of the “0000” being sold out, so we have gather a nice collection of “000” all in one suits, a small collection of “0000” singlets… will have to work on this department :-)

Our current task is working on his name… we are currently working on a list and plan on bringing that list down to three names by the time he arrives with the final decision being made once we can see which name suits him… currently we have:

Ashton Blake Rack
Ashton Oliver Rack
Blake Isaac Rack
Blake Lucas Rack
Hunter Vincent Rack
Caelan Lawson Rack
Kristan Hendric Rack

I've sent up a new account for this poll to take place so everyone can vote :-) weather or not you've voted before.

Well that is me for today… I’m sure I have plenty more to share but my mind is blank!

Missing in Action

Well it's been a long few weeks, or has it even been a month, without the internet at home... fingers crossed in a few more days we will be connected.

It's becoming more real that a little one will be with us in the next few months with his kicks getting stronger and the need to purchase baby items slowly creeping up on us.

Went for another blood test yesterday which involved fasting, the "horrid" sugary drink and a long long two hour wait... not to mention the THREE injections to draw blood. I have an OB appointment tomorrow which I'm dreading if the scales are mentioned... so far they haven't but you never know when they will be luking around the corner.

Well I best head off once again as duty calls... fingers crossed for a more interesting update in the near future....
