It's a Girl

We had our 19 week pregnancy on the 19/2. Bubby was wriggling so much that Kate needs to go back again this week to finish the scan. They were able to tell us that it is a GIRL!! YEAH! A sister for Elise. Kate and Sean find agreeing on girls names a challenge, but are more than up for it!!


1. 4D scan of bubby with hand on her head.

We had a busy weekend with a wedding of our friend Breda followed by a 40th birthday of Tracey & Peter Baldwin. The 40th was a dress up theme of "favourite movie characters" which was a lot of fun!!

We are off to Cootamundra on the 8 & 9 March for dad's 10 year anniversary (hard to believe a decade has passed). At this stage Mick, Ang & Toby are going too. Poor Meg can't get time off work. Kate & Elise are flying to Ballina at Easter to see mum, Alan, Meg & Nige while Sean sails the state titles in Sydney this year.

Happy Birthday to Sean E.
37 years young. We hope he has a happy day and an exciting year with a new bubby and other wonder-filled adventures ahead of him.

We all went away last weekend to Copa...Copacabana on the Central Coast. Kate needed to get out of the city and the daily routine so she could breathe and refresh her senses.....The weather was pretty bleak on Sat but we made the most of the clear patches. Sunday was a gorgeous sunny day- great for walks on the beach. Elise loved being in a new place (takes after her mother in this regard) - running all over the house to explore and climb. Copacabana was like doggy holiday central so Nova hot to meet a heap of dogs on the beach to play with. Nana and Grandad happened to be in Terrigal for the sailing so we got to say hello to them.

Not long now (Feb 19) 'til we find out the whether the baby on its way is a boy or a girl....very exciting!!! Kate is now 18 weeks pregnant- nearly half way....

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY TO EVERYONE
