Several big date reminders

So today besides feeling as though I have become an incubator for the worst head-cold known to man-kind, there are several big dates that have all fallen together.

Charlie is 16 months old.

Most certainly not a baby anymore, my darling little man impressed me immensely by pointing out a dog, cat, pig, and duck from the same page in his 'I Went Walking' book. I knew he sort of knew what they were but to pick out the different ones I was asking about all in one go... Wowsers! It floored me! So yes - he is 16 months old and now most certainly a toddler. It's about time we pulled our fingers out and finished his big-boy bedroom.

There are 17 months left until we get married.

Ahh yes, that date is creeping ever so much closer. Have made another deposit since I whisked my dress into my wardrobe - this time on a fun surprise for our guests! I hope you all like it, some of you already know what it is but for the rest of you... I'm sure you'll enjoy it on the night :)

Lastly, today is the 28th week of me being pregnant and thus the beginning of 3rd trimester.

You have no idea how very glad this makes me. Between the sore pelvis (not helped by the fact that last night I crashed into a table) and the constant need to curl up in a ball in random places and sleep - I really am welcoming the end of pregnancy #2. Of course I don't want to 'Go' too early, but in about 2 weeks I'll have my emergency hospital bag packed... And quite possibly be stocking up on those itsy-bitsy newborn nappies I loved so much when Charlie was first born.

Well I'm going to get the vaporiser cranking, rub some vicks vaporub on my chest and snuggle up with Simon in bed to watch a movie and pray that somehow by tomorrow I've managed to kick the worst part of this cold - otherwise it'll be an unwanted unpaid sick leave day tomorrow. Yuck.

Oh and heres a picture of Bugg that I couldn't resist taking today. No matter how sick and crabby he is - he always manages to give me a cute photo when i need one :)
