Happy New Year to you all, I hope you all managed to get some sort of break over the festive season. I'm looking forward to catching up on all the blogs I regularly visit, as I have managed to keep my laptop turned off since December 23rd (making sure I had a 'proper' break). It feels good to be back, and I'm actually looking forward to getting back to work on the film tomorrow. I have photos to share from our holiday that I'm yet to sort through, but my big news for 2012 is...
The Stanley's are having a baby!
I'm just over 21 weeks pregnant, and Mark and I are very excited. Now that I am over the 14 weeks of 'hell and back' morning sickness, I can think about some of the fun stuff - the bambino's room and coming up with a name...oh, how I love thinking of names. Being an enthusiastic collector of lots of things, our future little one has no shortage of treasures accumulating (mainly Christmas gifts from excited family) in the guest bedroom. I'm obsessed with clearing out the clutter this week to make space for our new roomie, so my local Vinnie's should be high fiving me pretty soon.
While I'm many months off from becoming a 'mum blogger' (and don't worry, I have no plans on becoming an over-sharer who talks a little too much about the baby's bowel movements) - I do like the words and photos on these super stylish parenting-focused blogs:
Cheers to 2012 everyone - to lovely blogs, health, happiness and new babies!
- Briar
