The past 6 months

I can’t believe how bad I am at blogging! Kyle will be 6 months old next week, so clearly I have been very, very busy. Life with a baby is so different, than it was before. Even having au paired and nannied for 4 years, hasn’t prepared me for what life is like when the…

The BSquirt has arrived!

Kyle Connor Johnson was born at 13h50 on Wednesday, 28 May 2014 at Life Westville Hospital in Durban, South Africa. He came into the world via natural delivery after a relatively short labour at 40 weeks and 2 days. I began counting contractions around 19h00 on Tuesday evening. They were fairly regular, but quite far…

It’s been a while

I apologise again for the delay. I’ve been really bad at even reading my blog roll, never mind updating my own blog. There really isn’t much of a reason really. My pregnancy is still going very smoothly. I am 38 weeks on Monday and BSquirt is expected to arrive any time in the next 3…

Everything is ok….

… I’m just really sucky at keeping my blog updated! I am 32 weeks today and can’t believe that I only have 8 weeks-ish left until we meet the BSquirt. I can’t remember when last I posted, and I’m on my phone so it’s complicated to check. I think it was before our 4D scan.…

Week 21 – 23 Update

Ok – so I am being awful at keeping this blog updated! I keep reading other people’s blog posts and never get round to posting my own update. Like someone else said, when you’ve been through what we have, it feels awkward just posting week on week that things are going well. I do acknowledge…

HALFWAY! Looking forwards and backwards.

I can’t believe that I am half way through this pregnancy already! It has both dragged and flown by! I can’t believe that I haven’t done a proper update in almost a month either. I apologise to my avid followers. I don’t really have any real excuse except that I was being super lazy. In…

Everything’s ok, just being super lazy.

I feel bad cos I haven’t posted an update. Everything is going well and I have started feeling The BSquirt move. We have had a super lazy festive season with just the two of us this year. The laziness has moved into all areas of my life. I promise to do a proper post soon,…
