365/7 project

365/7 - week twenty five - barcelona

So as some of you may know we decided to take one last holiday together (for a while anyway!) before our new addition arrives and decided on Barcelona. It was a fantastic break and just what we both needed.

Admittedly though the 'bump' was very much the focus of our attention, there was just no escaping it...as you can see in this weeks photo!

(For those how follow the veg/fruit-o-meter it's the size of a large aubergine head to rump!)

365/7 - in a word... JUNE (wks 21, 22, 23, 24)

So yet again I'm really behind in posting up my 365/7 pics. I have been taking photos but have just not had the time to do anything with them. Like almost every month in 2011 June shaped up to be another hectic one.

WEEK 21

We started the month still celebrating Paul's 33rd birthday. We had the family over to celebrate, made loads of food, baked some cakes and had a couple of 'shandy's', By the end of the day Paul and I were both pretty tired. Paul sat on the sofa 'resting his eyes'... i.e. falling asleep... and I took a photo. On a separate note: I love Paul's eyelashes...they curve inwards.

WEEK 22

This weekend I was photographing a 'new age' wedding in the deepest darkest Dumfries. It was set in gorgeous woodland and the bride & groom shared their vows in a stunning roundhouse cottage. Grace & Warren discovered and chose that location because their friends, who were traditional craftsmen, had been responsible for thatching the roof of the roundhouse. It really was something pretty special.

WEEK 23

After months of deliberation, emails back and forth to friends for ideas and recommendations and numerous times of changing our mind we've decided to go on holiday. I know I keep saying it but things really have been non-stop since January and knowing that very shortly we'll have another little person in our life to deal with which will no doubt make it even more hectic...we simply had to get away. So we decided on Barcelona. We've been twice before and love it. I can't wait for some sunshine and some time out.

WEEK 24

This week I managed to get along to a couple of (very different) gigs. On Monday we went to see Morrissey in a great little theatre in Dunfermline (okay I was buying a snack bag of minstrels instead of a pint to see me through the gig but it was still a great gig!) and then headed to Hampden for Take That (minus a pink cowboy hat you'll be pleased to know!). Made me think I need to get back to going to more gigs and festivals... roll on T in the Park!

365/7 - week twenty - 7inches...and growing!

This week we had our 20-week baby scan. Both Paul and I were so excited about seeing the baby again and were keen to make sure everything was going as it should. Thankfully everything seems to be on track and the little thing is not so little anymore!

Currently sitting at 7-inches (head to rump!) the baby is growing fast... resulting in my belly growing as equally fast! I'm beginning to get used to the bump though and I thankfully look no longer just like the girl who ate all the pies and more like I'm pregnant... you could even say I'm beginning to blossom! :)

Keeping up with the 'fruit of the womb' theme and according to 'Heidi Murkoff', this week my baby is roughly around the length of an average banana!
