Nothing Yet...


No baby to report yet, so life carries on as usual. I am either 3 days late or 1 day early, depending on which ultrasound report you look at. I missed your birthday, sis, on the 16th, so will try to aim for Grandpa T's on the 20th! But, doesn't matter to me - as baby will come out when it is ready.
In the meantime, a couple more photos. One is of the 'sacred birthing room' - or rather, the office/studio we have turned into a flat for the moment until we move into our house. The other is for you, Granny, to show you that the special breastfeeding rocking chair did indeed arrive, after its long trek from Townsville, and has made its place on our new paved verandah (Noah did the paving last week).
Most of you in the family would recognise this chair, as it sat in Grandma and Grandpa T's pergola. This cane chair was especially made for Grandma almost 30 years ago - I believe it was in either Borneo or Singapore?? The famous pasttime with this chair was to prove that it really could NOT tip over backwards - I don't think anyone ever did it, as far as I can recall. Anyhow, it means a lot for me to have it here, as it is a beautiful chair, and I look forward to spending many hours reclining in it with the babe.
Until next post, Erica

Hey Erica - its Darienne. I cant believe as I write...you're probably already a Mum. Just got an email from Chris telling me your news so I hope all is well. Do you remember when you baby sat Dean for me in Townsville? He had croup and you called us in the middle of dinner as you were worried about him.? Well....he says Hi....he is 14 now and in year 10 with a part-time job at Maccas!!! How time flies.So...now you are about to join this elite club of Mothers!!! Congratulations and I look forward to reading all the other news.

A watched pot never boils....however it is now Saturday so one never knows.
A rocking chair is great. I had one for Zoe and I and we even took it camping by putting it into the back of a toyota hiace. I know that's a little extreme but what the heck.
Thinking of you all, Marcelle
Congratulations on the birth of your baby girl. In a world which seems overrun with bad news, the arrival of your daughter is enough to calm mind and heart and allow hope to rise again. I look forward to seeing the rocking chair in action.
Love, Ellen
Dear Erica, Noah and the latest addition to the Valley. We are both so proud of you. Congratulations. Hope to catch-up soon. Enjoy your little bundle of joy.
Love
