Jenni came over and took some preggy photos for me. I think they came out well seeing as we had no fancy studio and we have no idea how to change the backgrounds in Photoshop - although Jen is going to ask a friend for help.
Look Mommy swallowed a beach ball!
'One little lick'
Dimity then came around and the 3 of us set about making a belly cast, it was hilarious and I had to try hard not to laugh and crack the plaster. Gavin was very pleased that I got them to help as I think he would have been hard pushed to find the enthusiasm to make a belly cast, he did though under great duress come and take some pictures of the giggling girls.
The finished product. I think I am going to get some powder plaster and smooth and sand it over so you can't see the bandage line and then I will have to think of how to decorate it.
We had a curry take out for super which was really nice and then some of a fancy berry tart that Dimity brought from a French patisserie. Oh and of course some wibbly wobbly jelly which Rachel made for the occasion.
Dimity then went home to finish her assignment and my wonderful sister did a butterfly henna belly for me. She was great and spoiled me the whole day doing all the things I knew there was no way that I would get Gavin to do. It was such a fun day and I felt so special.
Gavin goes back off shore on 6 June and is then not back until 20 June so we now have all the things we needed for our home water birth so basically baby needs to come now before the 6th so that his dad can be around. It has been wonderful to have Gavin home, he has put up desks, bookcases, and moved all the heavy stuff I could not so now we have what looks like a home and not just chaos. We still have way too much stuff for this small house but it looks so much better and I feel more ready to have a baby here than before.
