mmmmmm steak

Went out for Greg's birthday last night, we went to Coal's bar and grill. We both had steak which was yummy, Tony had his rare, definnately too rare for me. I ordered mine med-rare but I asked for it to be put on a pit longer because I'm picky. The service and the food was brill. The only thing I was a bit meh about is the fact that all their desserts had dairy in them (not that I could've eaten anything else). I said about it to the guy who I thought was one of the head waiters and suggested they put some friendlier desserts on the menu. Turnt out he'd only been there a week I couldn't believe it he was so proffessional but he said that in future if I want a dessert they can do something special for me and he would pass on the suggestion. I made it clear to him that I wasn't complaining as I really enjoyed the evening.

I've been feeling like poo the last few days, went to hospital on Saturday because I've been getting some pain and some spotting, turns out I've just got an infection for which the doctor prescribed something called Trimethoprim Suspension. My body didn't like this too much half hour after taking my dose on Sunday I was sick. Great! So need to book an appointment with my doctor to see if I can take anything else.

Tony's making another cheesecake today yummy yummy. We got the confirmation through from Antique and Hollywood Limos for our wedding car and we've got an appointment with Carley at the hotel to change a few details and go through a few things.

Kick!!!!

For past couple of days I have felt Crumpet moving :) Not only from the inside either I felt him from the outside which I shouldn't be able to do for another month or so. If what Sarah the medium said was true about him being a long baby then I suppose it's not much of a surprise that I can feel him ahead of time, it's so amazing though I can't stop smiling. Got a letter today, Tivvy birth centre is opening next week which I'm so happy about as it's my first choice as to where I give birth.

Booked to join the dentist we've both got an appointment on the 8th October, I'm really nervous, I haven't had a check up since I was about 16, what's she going to find ???

Been watching lots of CSI: Miami lately I love it but I've only got 1disc left to watch :(

Heartbeat

Had a Midwife appointment on Monday 13th. It was a good appointment made all the better by getting to hear our baby's heartbeat for the first time it sounded great. It was so clear. The Midwife warned me as baby is still quite small she might not find the heartbeat straight away but she told me not to worry if it took a while. She found it straight away though it was amazing, it can't wait to meet him (we don't know the sex but it's better then saying it!!)

Buddy's got to the adolesant stage, he does things he knows is naughty so that we chase him, he's barking a lot and generally driving us crazy, oh well next month he's getting the chop so maybe he'll calm down a bit.

Ordered some stuff from Amazon yesturday including a couple of Xmas pressies, I've finally started I swear it gets later every year, when I was younger I'd have all my Xmas shopping done by now but I've only just started this year. I'm a bit stuck for ideas though last year we did hampers for our famillies but we're not doing it again this year I'll end up getting too stressed out. So individual pressies it is but what? No-one is giving me any ideas either it's so difficult.

Our Holiday

We arrived on the Isle of Wight at about 6pm on Saturday, we arrived at Waverly Caravan park and was really happy with our van. It was really spacious and comfy. We took Buddy for a walk through East Cowes woods and down to the seafront. Tony tried to take him down onto the part of the beach where dogs are allowed, it was so funny, as soon as Buddy saw a small wave coming towards him he backed away and ran back up the steps where I was waiting, he did try it again but still wasn't sure. We then went straight round to Tony's Mum's for dinner, then on to spend our first night in the van. Buddy cried and whined for a bit but soon settled, I had a very restless night, I found the mattress a bit uncomfortable.

Sunday We all went for a trip to Wolverton, Shorwell. There was a fair on which reminded me of Southampton Balloon fest in the good days. Mum and Dad were there doing a stand for G&S as they are doing Pirates of Penzance and need to get some more young men, Mum apparently decided not to let a young man escape and chased after him, she's such a floozy. Me and Tony went on the Sea Kayaks, they are really hard work and very uncomfortable to sit on, it probably didn't help that the wetsuit only just fit me and I got soaked, I was walking around with a wet bum the rest of the day. We also entered into a Have-a-go Agility course with Buddy, he was such a cheat but we got there in the end. We then went shopping and back to the van to have dinner, we had a stirfry but I couldn't quite eat it all. Geraldine had invited us to go to the Sloop in Wootton for a quiz, unfortunatly we got there and the quiz wasn't on but I saw the carvery and decided I was hungry again, so I had my second dinner of the evening, piggy or what lol.

Monday Took Buddy for a long walk in Cowes, he was knackered when we got him back.

Tuesday Tony took Buddy for a walk in Cowes whilst I went to Newport to look for Maternity clothes, what a waste of time that was. I drove back to East Cowes to put the shopping away then walked over to Cowes to meet my boys and went to Tony's Grandads.

Wednesday We took Buddy Boy to Ryde beach today, he had a great time and met a couple of dogs, one of which decided his ball looked like fun Buddy tried to chase after him but the dog was a whippit x greyhound so was very fast of his feet, I don't think Buddy liked that he kept chasing him and started giving little yelps as if to say "Give me my ball back". We managed to get it back thankfully. In the evening we had Mum and Dad come round for dinner, we had chinese it was yummy. Then we played Scrabble Trickster which of course Dad won.

Thursday Took Mum to the Wight Mouse for lunch today, I ended up getting upset as usual because I couldn't eat half the menu, all in all I think we were all pretty dissapointed. We then took Buddy for a fun down on Compton Bay, it was great he really enjoyed himself digging up the sand and chasing an old tennis ball we found. In the evening I left Tony and Buddy to it and went to see Bry and Hannah in Cowes, we decided to meet up at the Waterside. We had such a laugh especially on the games machine. Then took Hannah home and Bry came back to the van to see Tony and Buddy and played dominos

Friday Had a fairly lazy day. Went to Cowes to Trinity Theatre as they had a rehearsal for Wizard of Oz, had a laugh with Wayne, Abbie and Pete.

Saturday Had to leave the van by 10am today. So went round to Mum and Dad's and waited for them to finish work. Once they had both seen Buddy again Tony took him to the kennels whilst I had a sleep on the sofa, had generally a lazy day but then went off to a ghost vigil at Shanklin Theatre, I was so scared but really wanted to do it. It started at 10pm and ended at 4am. It was amazing. especially on the stage Sarah (the Medium) picked up on a man who was very strong and a couple of times tried to take over different people. Sarah also picked up a young boy who I can't stop thinking about. She told us he wanted to say hello and felt when he was alive he didn't feel appreciated for the work he did. I decided I wanted to say hello, as soon as I thought this I got really hot, Sarah told me to go and sit down and have some water, I immediately cooled down. Sarah later said to me it was because I am extra sensitive because I'm preggers and also the boy was close to me because I'm going to be a Mummy. She rubbed my bump and says she knows what sex our baby is and that he's going to be long, she thinks that by the time he's 10/11 he'll be patting me on the head. I'm interested to see if this is true.

Sunday Home time, we were on the 5.30pm ferry which was full of bloody Bestival people who were all smelly and filthy eurgg. Buddy was quiet the whole way home which was amazing. Holiday over back to normality and not as many bacon sarnies (we had one every morning :D )

last couple of days

Tony thinks my bump has grown but it still measures the same it's really annoying I want everyone to be able to see I'm pregnant, more to the point I want to be able to see it myself so that it's more obvious to me that I'm pregnant.

Had really bad stomach pains today, not sure if it's a dodgy tummy or if baby's growing.

I've turnt into a bit of a cheese toastie monster lately, mmmmmmmmmmmmm cheeeeeeesssse tooooooaaaaasssssttttiiiiieee!!!!!!!!!!

I'm trying to do avon but it's really annoying me at the moment, people just aren't ordering and aren't leaving their books out which I need to finish my round. The order has got to be in by Friday and I only have about £40 worth when I need £78 or I have to pay for delivery etc.

This time next year we would have been married 1 day. I picked up the wedding rings yesturday and can start ordering things like the photographer and car :D . My dress still hasn't arrived yet though it should've been here sometime in July or August.

Went to the gym yesturday to set up a workout plan so that I don't do too much whilst I'm preggers as I don't want to harm the baby, it was good to get back in there and if I start now hopefully I won't have too much weight to lose between giving birth and getting married as there is only 6 months between the two. Oh dear what have I let myself in for.

Got a bit pissed off yesturday, I was shopping in Sainsburys in Exeter mainly for things our local tescos don't do as I was  walking round this twat looked in my trolly then turnt round to his daughter who was about 10/11 and said something to the effect of These skinnies eat well don't they. OMG who the hell did he think he was, what a complete dick.
