Sarah Audrey Alice
Life is very beautiful! Sarah Audrey Alice was born safe and healthy on Wednesday, November 26 at 10:41pm, weighing 3190g (7lbs) and 50cm long. My labour was another quick one. I went to hospital on Wednesday afternoon for induction and on examination the dr found that I was already 3cm dilated. We were all surprised […]
34 weeks
There’s not long until I give birth to this precious baby. This pregnancy has been the best ever, and the quickest ever! I’m so grateful for that. This pregnancy has also brought so much healing to my family and me. Physically I feel pretty enormous and uncomfortable right now, which is pretty standard. I’m tired […]

Not when you’ve done this three times before and it has been better than perfect. Not when you are really really excited. Not when you’re really […]
Happy new year!
Happy new year, from our family to yours! We had a beautiful Christmas at home. One of the best Christmases ever, actually. There is something beautiful in the simplicity of staying at home with your young children and just ‘being.’ The kids loved staying home to play with their new gifts and eat their favourite […]
Fraudulent pregnant lady
I feel a bit like a fraud. A few weeks ago I posted about how I was managing to work and be a mum and be pregnant (here). Whilst those tips certainly helped me maintain my professional life amidst being a mummy and wife and homemaker and baby-brewer, they couldn’t save me, and I started […]
