Does this mean I want one?
Lets get a few things straight. I don’t particularly want to write this, but think it will be helpful in the process of getting over… this. So here I go trying to explain my life away…
Who I was Two Weeks Ago:
- Slightly stressed at my job, but generally excited about where we’re going and what we’re doing.
- Somewhat of a ‘career woman’- wanting to make a difference in my industry, and achieve some sort of recognition for it.
- Happy with our (read: Luke, Pepper and I) plan for the next few years.
- Excited about planning a holiday for the end of next year- Italy.
- Wanting to have a baby, but happy to wait for the year or so until we start.
- Feeling steady on my feet with God, House, Work, Life.
- Struggling with the fact that even though I want a baby, I don’t want to leave work (I know TECHNICALLY this doesn’t have to be, but for me, it does).
- Enjoying going off to the Goldy and what not without much of a bother/plan
Then my good friend Sarah called (I was her bridesmaid last year) and told me she was pregnant. And I was… jealous. I didn’t meant to be, and I didn’t want to be. Like I said above, I’m HAPPY with how things are- with our plans and our future and my work.
So what does this mean? Every time I read her facebook status about morning sickness, or being pregnant, or anything about it my head caves in, my chest pangs, and I remember that so many people I know are popping them out- people who got married at the same time, or before us. Does this mean that I WANT a tiny person to grow inside of me and then cause me unbelievable pain, all before they start to cry and poop and make me wake up before 7am?!
To top it off I’ve had the inevitable question asked “When’s it your turn?”, more then usual, which actually doesn’t help one bit, and makes me think that maybe our plan needs revising (though we all know that with Luke as my husband, if this time frame gets revised it is only going to go in one direction- further away).
So I’m writing this in the hopes that the ugly green monster will go away, now that I’ve showed the whole entire world who he his, and why he’s here. And I guess I should remember this feeling, because in two years time, when I am up the duff, someone else might be feeling this way about me…
Thanks for visiting my site again! keep checking back for more updates!
My Favourite Photo…
I was tagged by Zoey for this meme, which was started by Fat.Mum.Slim.
It’s really simple. I love how every photo tells a story. Some short stories, some long tales. I want to know what is your favourite photo of yourself. Everyone has one. The photo they look at and smile. It reminds them of something, some time, some place. A moment in time.
So share the photo, share the story and then tag three other people. I want to see photos and stories all around the blogosphere.
Baby me and Daddy
The photo isn’t the good- it’s 22 years old now, and is pretty spech. That’s me and my daddy. Our first photo. I love him SO much, and I by the looks of this photo, he loves me too. 
There is something so special about daddies and their daughters.
I can’t wait for the day when I can take a picture of Luke with our daughter in the same position. I love my dad, and think that he’s the best.
I tag Bonnie, Bettina, and Lucy!

What A Weekend!
Phew. The long weekend is over. It was SO enjoyable, and JAM PACKED full of awesomeness. This post is just some photos of the weekend gone by. Some photos are just iPhone pics, but others are ones I’ve tried to do well.
Hope you enjoyed your long weekend if you were in Australia, and if you’re part of the Commonwealth, then I hope you have a great Queen’s Birthday holiday when it comes around!
