Some People Feel The Rain...Others Just Get Wet


When it rains, most birds head for shelter, the Eagle is the only bird that flies above the clouds to avoid the rain.


"Everyone wants happiness, no one wants pain, but you can't make a rainbow without the rain"





Just a bit bored while its pouring outside...much needed rain in the Eastern Cape.  Looking forward to our trip home to Magogong on Wednesday.  And Jen's wedding.  So there's lots to look forward to on the blog before the "blog drought" which is Dec/Jan :)

fit fat and flourishing!

 
Me looking larger than life with my trophy for winning the C-Division in our Club Champs!  (I'm still a 33 handicap so can only compete with C-Division which is between 30 and 36 handicaps).

19 weeks pregnant

So this week I turned 19 weeks pregnant... :)  Half way there.

I haven't taken many belly photos
1. because I have no one to take them for me (my husband hates taking photos as much as he hates being in them)
2.  Because I'm not very good at taking selfies.

I will do a little maternity shoot towards the end of my pregnancy though.  Hopefully I have a huge belly by then, because what a waste if its just a small little rugby ball that could have been a bloated stomach or constipation.  I want to LOOK pregnant!

And on that note, that is why Sean keeps saying "stop pushing out your stomach, we all know you pregnant"...promise I'm not pushing out my stomach!

Here's a photo of me..mmm...at about 16/17 weeks pregnant!

 

 



(Maybe I'm pushing it out a bit in this one!!!!!!) hahah
 
Blah blah so went for my check up and everything is 100% fine
 
 
We can't tell the sex yet and I've decided that if we can see at the next scan, we will keep it surprise from everyone else.  I've only had one scan so far and we could not tell as I was only 13 weeks pregnant.  The next available scan appointment is 6 November (23 weeks pregnant) and on my dad's birthday...so if its a boy....and non of my brothers have decided to impregnate their women maybe I can convince Sean to name the baby Patrick?  It's also Sean's dad's second name. 
 
But unfortunately...and maybe fortunately for those who think I don't deserve to name my child after our legendary father, the black guy who is the green keeper up at the golf club's name is Patrick...and since Sean and I spend most of our time up there, he will be teased by his golfing buddies for naming the baby after the green keeper!  So we are still up for name suggestions for both sexes!  I will be sending out an email soon for peoples predictions and name suggestions!
