We survived the first 6 months.<br />
Still not in a routine.<br />
Still have no time for anything. Really - how do people do it?<br />
I barely get dinner on the table and I am done.<br />
So very exhausted. She still feeds every 2 hours - even through the night.<br />
But boy is she worth it. She makes my heart so very happy.<br />
She is an absolute joy.<br />
She got her 2 bottom teeth a month ago. And has been rolling for 2 months. No sitting or crawling yet. Cannot wait for that to start.<br />
<br />I love my sweet girl<br />

<br />
Onto the story - On March the 14th the hubby and I went out to test drive a car. It was a hot day and we got home late in the afternoon. I started having contractions - just like every other day. I was quite sore in my back though and got out the hot water bottle to try and relieve the pain. The contractions tapered off and I went to bed at about 10:30pm.<br />
I woke at midnight to go to the toilet and my waters broke. Contractions were instant. Really strong and a minute & a half apart. I called the hospital and they said to have a cup of tea and take my time and come in. I thought great -I'll wake hubby up with a coffee and have a shower. By the time I'd had a shower, the contractions were worse and I just woke hubby and pushed him out the door. We were at the hospital at 1am.<br />
After a while they gave me some gas - which I was sucking on for dear life. Kinda wondering when I'd be able to have an epidural - coz boy I wanted one!!<br />
I heard the midwife say we'll check her after this next contraction and organise an epi. Well the next contraction was too late. She was on her way out. I yelled out that she was coming. They ripped off my pyjamas and she came flying out with 3 pushes. And I hadn't even been examined yet! The time was 2:25am.<br />

Miss Millie Jane weighed in at 3.67kg. The smallest of all my babies.<br />
I couldn't wait to take her home.<br />

We've had a bit of a hard road with feeding every 2 hours round the clock since birth - and finally discovering she has silent reflux. But hopefully we can get it all sorted out soon - and maybe get some sleep.<br />
Love this little girl so much!<br />

And I finally picked up her first album. This wasn't the one I wanted but it was the only pink one I could get at Spotlight.<br />
<br />We had a scan this week and everything is going well. She weighs about 2.5kg. If that means she's on track to weigh 3.5kg at birth, then I am a happy camper!<br />
If only these last weeks would move a little quicker! <br />

Well January saw our first holiday away in 15 years. We were so excited.<br />
It was a disaster from the first minutes. My oldest got sick. We arrived right on midday in 32 degree heat. Which was a bit too much for my pregnant body to handle.<br />

Hubby bought me a portable air con to try and help me cool down. And I spent many hours in the pool but just couldn't get the painful swelling down.<br />
We decided to cut our holiday short and head home on the second night.<br />

It may not have been for long but I treasure every minute we got to spend together. We're already planning our next trip after bubby arrives.<br />
<br />
We celebrated hubby's 40th and my littlest going back to school. So this week has been all about the early starts and packing lunches.<br />
I still haven't finished making my nappy bag. Bad girl!! The third trimester is kicking my butt!!<br />
Hoping to get organised in the next week. Get my bag packed for hospital and everything washed and ready to go. Just in case.<br />

We've wanted another baby for the past 10 years - so to nearly be there is amazing! Although I am struggling in the heat. I've only had winter babies before.<br />
So today - I am spending it in the air con. As I did yesterday.<br />
And enjoying my birthday present from my beautiful hubby (I think he got sick of rubbing my feet)<br />

Mostly due to falling pregnant and being practically bed ridden for the first 4 months - and then my crafty mojo disappearing completely.<br />
But here is what I did get done:<br />

I made a couple of bags, a couple of quilts, some baby goods, a couple of baby swaddlers, some pants and 2 dresses. <br />
On the immediate list to happen in the first month of 2014 is the nappy bag, some more pants for bubby, a couple of cot sheets, a quilt and a changing mat. And if I can squeeze it in - a few dresses for her first birthday.<br />

I knew it wasn't going to be easy in this heat so I didn't put alot of pressure on myself.<br />
On Christmas Eve, I prepared everything that I could for the next day. So all I had to do on Christmas was serve it and wash up. Easy Peasy.<br />

I spent most of Christmas Day in the pool. It was so relaxing. Just enjoying our last Christmas as a family of four.<br />
So ready for this bubba to come. 11w and 5 days to go. Although you'd swear I was ready to pop now. I am huge!!<br />
Now that Chrissy is over - I'm going to try and turn my attention to finishing up that nappy bag. And get my oldest girl organised to go back to school.<br />
It's my birthday in a week - so trying to come up with a plan for that, although right now a sleep in and a massage are the only things I want to do.<br />
<br />
Have a Happy New Year!<br />

A little hospital visit. A bit of a scare - but everything is ok at the moment.<br />

Belly getting bigger. I had my Glucose Tolerance Test. Wasn't that fun.<br />
I had to be tested because I have previously had big babies. And I guess because I am alot older this time around. And wider!<br />
It was yuck. The liquid tasted like undiluted cordial. I got it down as fast as I could.<br />

He had his formal last night and in his words, he had an awesome time!<br />
<br />
Got another busy week ahead - but hoping to fit in a little sewing time.<br />
Have a Happy weekend!<br />

I forgot how little they are.<br />
And after a week at the mechanics - I finally got my car back. And could finally get my stereo installed. Loving it!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

My little sweetpea bought home some dessert. Love when she gets something that I like. She's a keeper.<br />

And I started cutting out bag pieces. But only got as far as the exterior fabric. I wish there were little magic sewing fairies to come and cut it all out for me.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYfQiJaXP6eVSLAAaPyO1N-0PBUSG_jAqLuYHzv2rSih9Rlz1BFcxwIWkrFDt0YXqHgNAhhCei_qnCWpYqA8DcwC3v0nRkUDzH_r_iB2uHb23j2ucEE5e4JnZJKCHs3GTOn0oJr0ht-ujh/s1600/IMG_3077.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYfQiJaXP6eVSLAAaPyO1N-0PBUSG_jAqLuYHzv2rSih9Rlz1BFcxwIWkrFDt0YXqHgNAhhCei_qnCWpYqA8DcwC3v0nRkUDzH_r_iB2uHb23j2ucEE5e4JnZJKCHs3GTOn0oJr0ht-ujh/s640/IMG_3077.jpg" width="480" /></a></div>
I think the rest of the cutting will be a job for tomorrow and the weekend. I need to take it slowly (which is so frustrating) as I get sore too quickly.<br />
I've been up since 3:00am. I'm off to the hospital today. It's going to be a long, long day.<br />
<br />
Have a good one!<br />

Girl!<br />
We are so excited to be having a girl. Already having one of each - I really didn't mind either way. But this whole time I couldn't imagine her being anything other than a sweet little girl - and she is. Well, in reality she'll probably be a sweet BIG girl.<br />
Can't wait to meet her.<br />

It feels so good to be finishing things off. I made this a while ago but only got to sewing in the velcro today.<br />
This pattern was so easy. And a fast sew. Can't wait to snuggle my bubby up in it.<br />
Pattern from <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/83203966/baby-blanket-pattern-swaddle-blanket?ref=shop_home_active">here</a><br />
Fabric is from Heather Ross's Briar Rose collection called Calico in Brown. You can <a href="http://www.hawthornethreads.com/fabric/designer/heather_ross/briar_rose/calico_in_brown">find it here</a> if you're looking.<br />
Next up - the nappy bag. I'm giving myself a week to make it.<br />
Tomorrow I'm heading in for an ultrasound and hoping to find out the sex of the baby. I can't wait.<br />
<br />
Have an awesome week,<br />

Well I finished. Thankfully. Disappointed that I couldn't turn out something a little more special - maybe later. I just don't have it in me at the moment.<br />
Maybe after we confirm if it is a girl or a boy - then I might be into it a bit more.<br />

I need to take a little break from sewing for the weekend - my shoulders are killing me. But I definitely want to make the diaper bag next week. Really excited to make that!!<br />
<br />
Have an awesome weekend<br />

Thinking that if I want to save some dollars I might need to learn to crochet.<br />
<br />

If bubby is a girl, that is. At the moment we are assuming that is the case.<br />
It might be different come Monday after my scan.<br />
I might need to dig into my stash for some blue fabrics.<br />
Anyway - back to this quilt. I actually went to find out the fabrics for the diaper bag and got totally sidetracked when I came across some leftover 8 inch squares from a previous quilt I had made. So I pulled out some more fabrics and cut some more squares and pretty soon had a basic quilt top.<br />
Yesterday I pieced together a back for it. Only problem now is that I don't have enough batting. So I'm going to unpick a row from each side (that will be fun) and I should have enough batting to make it. That will be a job for tomorrow.<br />
<br />If I plod along - doing a little each day - I just might get some things finished.<br />
Where are the magic sewing fairies when you need them?<br />

I'm trying to figure out which kind of diaper bag I want to make. I've bought 2 patterns but can't decide.<br />
The first one is <a href="http://www.sewsweetnesspatterns.com/products/aragon-bag">Sara's Aragon Bag.</a><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I love this bag because it zips up - therefore keeping everything clean and contained. And I know how much care Sara takes writing her patterns - so I know it's been checked and will be easy to follow for my poor exhausted baby brain.<br />
<br />
<br />
Or - do I choose this one, the <a href="http://craftapple.com/7-the-diaper-bag-pattern.html">Craft Apple Diaper Bag</a><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I love the phone pouch. And it looks really easy = fast. Easy to throw things in and dig things out.<br />
<br />
<i><b>So this is where you step in. Since I've been so out of practise for so long.</b></i><br />
<i><b>What is important in a diaper bag? What couldn't you live without? Or simply - which one do you think will better suit the job?</b></i><br />
<br />
Please help. I'm stuck! And I am getting bigger quickly - pretty soon I won't fit behind my sewing machine!<br />

It's so cute and I love it. Just needs a bit of mechanical work which it will get this week.<br />
<br />
I've got plans this week to make a diaper bag. I've bought 2 patterns but can't quite decide on which one I think would suit me better. Although I have settled on fabric so there's half the battle sorted.<br />
<br />
Whatever you are doing - have a fabulous week!<br />

Then I pulled out some fabric and started with Anna Maria Horners Quickchange trousers from her Handmade Beginnings book.<br />
Things quickly went sour when I got to the waistband and couldn't, for the life of me, figure out the pattern. Total baby brain, I think.<br />
Fast forward a couple a days - and I found the answer on Flickr.<br />
Noting it here so I don't forget......to insert the elastic, you need to slide it between the layers up through the leg. Of course, so simple!!!<br />
So I finally got them finished this morning. <br />

So this bubby is cooking away nicely for the time being. Although every time I get checked - it measures larger. It has me a little worried.<br />
My previous kids stats were:<br />
<br />
Michael was:<br />
Weight: 4.575kgs or 10 pounds 2 ounces<br />
Length: 52cm<br />
Head Circ: 40cm<br />
<br />
Caitlin was:<br />
Weight: 4.760kg or 10 pounds 8 ounces<br />
Length: 53cm<br />
Head Circ: 36.5cm<br />
<br />
If you've had more than one kid - have they weighed heavier or lighter? I really hope I'm not the only one whose babies get bigger!<br />
<br />
This week has been busy playing taxi. So for 30 minutes before I have to head out the door again I thought I'd treat myself to a little coffee (no more daily coffees for me) and a bit of chocolate and update to IOS7. That's been fun. Only another 9 hours to go.<br />

This bubby has been a long time coming. We've been trying for the past 11 years with no success. And now we've got a sweet little baby cooking away nicely.<br />
And now that I'm safely in the 2nd trimester, hopefully the morning sickness & lethargy will subside a little so I can start making things for my own bubba.<br />
Still got a long road to go - but that'll be just enough time to get used to the idea of having a baby around here again. I mean, it's been 15 years since I've changed a nappy!<br />

Remember when I made <a href="http://myscrappystuff.blogspot.com.au/2013/03/a-dress-for-my-princess.html">this dress</a>? Well, my girl finally wore it.<br />

It made me so happy! And I'm so glad it still fits - it was a while ago!<br />
<br />
We had a good weekend. Quiet - with an engagement party on Saturday for my nephew. So happy for them. <br />
<br />
Then Sunday was Fathers Day. So I made my wonderful, perfect hubby some homemade chocolate mousse. It's his favourite besides the orange cake I make.<br />

Unfortunately there's no camping this week. But my littlest started a new job today. Early! I hope she has a really good day. Can't wait to hear all about it this afternoon. So excited for her.<br />

I was so excited.<br />
Then the car died - what are the odds that it happened this week?!<br />
So I am patiently hoping that it will be fixed soon and we don't have to put our little trip on hold.<br />
It's been 15 years since our last family holiday. And after being so miserably sick for the past 2 months - I am more than ready for a little time away.<br />

Still taking things slow this week. My only plan is to make a dress for my nephews engagement party this weekend. Although the odds of making that happen are pretty slim.<br />
<br />
Well - off to do the dishes and ironing. Have a happy week,<br />

Had a better day yesterday so I tried to sew something. Mega fail!<br />

I tried to make a baby swaddler, but I definitely need to unpick it and sew it again. Maybe I should've started with something even smaller.<br />
I'm finally making plans to make a quilt using my Briar Rose bundle. It should be a pretty quick sew.<br />
Need to redo this swaddler first.<br />
<br />
Have a Happy Week,<br />

And had no desire to do anything creative - which I think made me feel worse.<br />
Still not 100% yet - but I did manage to bake a little banana bread yesterday. That felt like a really big achievement.<br />

So yesterday I finally washed all my fabrics that I've bought to make garments. Now they are all ready to be ironed and cut. And of course I need to select a pattern for each one.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I think to start with though, I want to make the dress version of this with short sleeves. And use this fabric. Kind of unsure. What do you think? Can you see it?<br />
