When Dizzy met her first 'roast dinner' leftovers....

So Dizzy doesn't feel left out while Tony & I are at the hospital we've saved her a roast dinner bone. Below are photos of when she was a puppy sighted her first bone - kindly donated by our neighbour.  Her expressions are priceless...

Officially late...

I'm now officially overdue - and the waiting and not knowing is driving us both crazy!

We definitely appreciate everyone keeping in touch to see if baby has arrived and I feel like we're letting you down with 'no news'.

However to keep up our morale these cute little moccasins arrived in the post direct from 'Freshly Picked', Utah, USA! How gorgeous....they're all handmade.

Doing my bit...

Oh.........I've also been busy while waiting for this baby to arrive:

* Putting my sewing skills to show via a nautical theme to please the father-to-be

* And supporting the Aussie Olympians from the couch and our flagpole :-)

A dog's life...

Whilst Tony and I are running around crazy-like trying to get everything ready before the baby's arrival, it seems Dizzy is taking it all in her stride.  When not visiting her boyfriend Pablo....a longer legged version of Hairy McClairy....Dizzy seems to just hang out in the sun.

"???"

However as soon as we turn our backs Dizzy finds energy to jump the fence - so in today's wild weather Tony installed the second section of the electric fence.  So, when you visit, keep in mind that you'll have to remove the yellow handled section of the fence.

Dizzy and Pablo spend their time running around the Curlewis neighbourhood chasing down rabbits between our farm and the winery up the road at which Pablo lives.

Waiting, waiting.....

So, now I've had a pedicure (in the depths of Winter)....

......the baby will arrive any day, right??

Nursery

Hi guys, here's a few images of the nursery....

Tony has completed a beautiful renovation with polished floorboards and freshly painted walls.  He even forgave me for walking on the floorboards with fluffy white socks way before it had dried.  He was very happy to re-apply the varnish.....WHAT a wonderful husband!

Still a few additions to be made - however we've been trying to keep it gender neutral to keep grandparents guessing.
