It is 9:55 this morning and I thought I would post to start the day off (well, literally it isn't the first thing I did this morning!!). My routine in the morning is not going very well. I mean, due to being sooo exhausted/sleepy/tired so I don't really get up till...shhh, 8:20 or 8:30! Hmm, breakfast is supposed to be 8:20...lol. Anyways, this morning was not too bad I actually got up at 8! :P I was able to read some before making breakfast, have worship and then see Jett off. After all that I have a few minutes (hopefully if Amy hasn't awoken) to get myself ready for the day. And then when Amy wakes up the routine of getting her breakfast, diaper change, get her dressed etc. But I suppose these details aren't that interesting! :)
Well, since I haven't done much at all (other then put a load of laundry on) you would think what is there to post? Well, I suppose I should inform you all (if you haven't read our wee calendar to the right of this) that we are supposed to be in Larne this weekend and the next, and therefore you probably won't hear much from us. So, this week I'm busy packing and getting ready for Friday. I've been meaning to bake and cook meals etc for the freezer...but still haven't done a single thing. I'm trying to have something in there for when the baby is born so that we still can eat something tasty and nutritious (to some degree).
Every morning part of Amelia's routine is to get her teddy, and monkey and say hi a thousand times (okay not a thousand) to them, give them lots of hugs and sometimes give them to mom to say hi to as well. It is quite cute but it makes me sad when she places one of the teddies in front of herself and tries to play as if teddy was a real person... :'( poor thing! She needs somebody to play with!
Anyways, I don't know if I will be able to post again this week so I suppose this is good bye for now!

Yes we're still around :)
I'm typing or trying to type with Amelia on my lap so we'll see how far I get. The camera is still in the state of being repaired...or so I hope! We still have mice, and lots of them ;) don't worry, Jett just bought lots of mouse traps and poison so hopefully they will simmer down a bit. I thought you might like to view a clip of Amelia again, seeing I haven't been able to post pics or and new clips up...but then again this one is new to most of you anyways! It was taken a few weeks ago, and I think I can tell that Amelia's hair has grown since then (she also stacks blocks together a whole lot more and makes very interesting towers!). Next week we're supposed to go to Larne already! Time is just vanishing by! I feel like I'm draggin behind in everything. Just so tired I guess. Anyways enough said, and Amelia is already fussing for attention. Enjoy :)

our lovely mousie
I figured you might want to know what we’ve been up to this week, but of course, no pics to show so it will be probably rather boring.
At the moment Jett is in Glasgow attending the Theological Conference, while I’ve been home getting lonely, but hopefully putting time into profitable things.
Two noteworthy things that have happened in the past two days…
Our pet mouse (as I’m calling him now) decided to make his appearance for the second time. Of course it had to happen when Jett was still away, and Amelia was sleeping, so everything was very quiet. “Ah, they must be away,” says mouse, “I wonder if they left me any food…” So out comes little mouse and sits under our dining room table, facing me! I was reading so I didn’t see him at first, but then on looking up I saw him…I stomped my foot and he ran, as fast as he could, under the fridge. On seeing that, I figured he wouldn’t come out until I had gone… but no sooner had a few minutes past I saw him again just exiting his hiding spot under the fridge. The nerve of the pest! I figured he would be a little more hesitant to come out, but obviously not! Anyways, we set up traps last night in hopes of catching the thing. And I figured that we would be rid of him by this morning. Hmm, well, it soo happens to be that yes he likes peanut butter, but for some reason he is brilliant at not making the traps go off...and yet getting his peanut butter!! I’m rather disappointed. :S
The midwife came today for the homebirth meeting thing and a check up. It all went fine, baby is head down already (as it had been for the past 2 weeks at least) and I measuring what I should be 32weeks. Interestingly enough though, the babies head seems to be quite low – no need for concern as the midwife told me… but it still makes me wonder!
One more thing, we sent off the camera, but I doubt I will hear word of it for a wee bit, anybody know how long it takes for you to receive word about an estimate for the repair or if they received the camera? I was a bit nervous sending it the way I did (by mail) but I guess it was the only option at the moment for us.
Rick Bouman is in Scotland for the week, so hopefully we’ll be seeing him at some point in Edinburgh. It must have been ages since he has been over here…just wish he could have brought one or two of his daughters with him!
Okay that was two more things I mentioned! I guess I’ve said enough!
