'Bout Time!!!

Hi everyone!

Well Lou and I are still saving hard and are looking to leave the 1st November. Plan is to go to HAwaii, Fiji, NZ, Oz and Thailand. we've pretty much got peopletp stay with everywhere we go so that should keep costs down... good jb too 'cos we counted up how much spending money we are gonna have after our tickets and insurances and.... well..... gonna be a budget learning experience!
Still living with the two girls in the flat and basically living in a room! It's like living in a charity shop with all our vintage clothes and various retro obje' d'art. I must admit though, I've learnt to control certain bodily muscles and valves and have shown tremendous courage in maintaining a calm exterior whilst my belly has gathered wind quicker than a tethered wind balloon prior to launch!
So all in all life is good and at last moving in a positive direction and a newer happier chapter. We love you all and are tryig to figure out the best way to try and see you all before we go. We hope you are all well and happy xxx Stu & Lou xxx

Drowning!

Congrats Clare....assuming congrats are in order....you sound happy about it anyway. I have Man friends lining up actually.

Well last night I tried to disconnect an old dishwasher and managed to flood our kitchen and dining room..nightmare!
I practically jet washed the kitchen walls and ceiling and freshly painted cabinets. A total disaster.
We cleaned it up and I washed out my paint brushes and rollers in the sink for about 20 minutes then realised all the water was draining directly onto the kitchen floor...about 1/2 inch of water . Double flooding in 1 night.
Vick, bless her was very supportive and didn't flip out. and I managed not to swear!

Anway, we went to the doctor and our new official date is September 12th. Everything looks good and we can't wait..especially Vick. She is just beginning to get fed up with being pregnant.

Back on the Market!

Hello All!

I am very happy and I am certain I have made the right choice!

Love you all! Me xxx

3 weeks to go!

We are 3 weeks or so away from Babys arrival. We are frantically tryuing to get the house finished before it all happens. We have moved and painted all the inside and we are currently trying to get the kitchen remodelled as quick as we can. We're going to tile the counter tops and kitchen flloor and then I'm going to try my hand at plumbing in a new dishwasher!..we'll see how that goes. So life is busy as usual with plenty to do....oh yes I even pressure washed the house and will be painting it next week. We love our new place and the town we live in. We feel settled and are ready enough for little Lucy to arrive.

Thanks for everyones blogs. I've actually lost my camera for now so I havn'[t got pictures. I will find it and get pictures posted.
