Almost have a belly. Almost. Still only obvious after a meal :P I want
chicken and corn soup, but we have no chicken and no corn, hell not
really much of anything left, because tomorrow is shopping day. Maybe I
should duck down to the hawkers and get some. They might still be
open, it's only 8:35. If worse comes to worse I have rendang and veges
in the fridge that just needs some rice to be cooked up. I really want
chicken and corn soup but :(
Tiny is cute and cheeky as per
usual. I've been taking a lot of photos of him lately. He's big on
copying sounds now, and is quite adept at "no". "Tao, shower time"
"Nunununununu". Boob is now "Boo-baaaah", usually
"booBAAHbooBAAAHbooBAAAH" and back to "nah-nu" when he's sleepy. He has
huge conversations with us, only part of it in English though. Really
big on food, gets really upset if he thinks he's missing out. He's
eating a lot as well all of a sudden. Must be growing. Gave him two
decent scoops of rice today and poured some garlic sauce from the veges
over it, he dug in and finished all but two mouthfuls. Also had a go at
some beef rendang, I didn't give him any sauce coz thought it might be a
bit spicy and he actually ate all the meat. Those two bottom molars
are good for something at least, they're pretty much up and up til this
point they and the two coming up have just been making him cry. We're
about halfway through the bottle of Brauer's teething relief we bought.
Good stuff that, I highly recommend it.
Need to get more Pregnancy and Breastfeeding formula as well, I have all of one capsule left.
Got
a letter from the community midwife program today saying that I had a
spot in the program, just need to meet with a midwife for a pre-booking
appointment and see if I'm suitable or something. No idea what that
means. Still I was happy til Josh had to go and crush me saying that
they wouldn't let me do the homebirth coz of all the cats and the dog.
Guess people on farms who go into labour before they have a chance to
get to the all important fucking hospital are well and truly fucked
then. Although it seems to be statistically proven that hospital births
are more dangerous than home births because medical professionals are
way too happy to jump in and intervene with pathetic excuses like "your
cervix isn't dilating fast enough and that could hurt the baby" if the
labour doesn't look like it's going to finish in time for them to get to
their 4 o clock golf game or their dinner appointment with the boss's
wife.
Anyway. Midwife will be in contact at some stage for this
pre booking appointment, we see if we're suitable, if we are then great,
if not then I cry and try to come up with something else.
Baby
board is nearly done, though I'm having a lot of trouble coz the
existing databases are a load of shit to begin with, and massively
bloated. Just need to trim down the posts and I should be able to get
it to a manageable size so I can actually work with it. New Red Planet
is cruising along nice and easily which is great. Comic is going well.
I'm really happy with it. I'm feeling all over the place at the
moment, and wondering if I'm stupid for even wanting to attempt uni next
year. I just keep remembering it's why I'm trying to finish these web
projects now, so I won't be working on them later :) I know everything
will work out. Eventually.
I really should post some pictures. I'm just so lazy.
