20 week scan!

This is baby blake 2 growing well! The resemblance with Naomi's 20 week scan was incredible so we are very curious wat is going to come out! The pregnancy is going great and baby is quite active already. It's lovely being able to show off my bump now and Naomi cuddles and kisses bump when we mention 'baby in mama's buik(tummy)'!

Evian trip

Our little treat for the summer was a fab weekend in an amazing Hotel in Evian. It was a business trip with Chris' customer and her family. The views on Lake Evian were just one of the best and we just got soaked up in this luxury ambience.


Summertime

We had a great time with Leonore's sister Sophie and her family visiting us for a few days. A trip to Lyme park, a curry house and Starbucks were not to be missed!



Here we are finally with a bit of news from our summer. It has been a nice time with Naomi's birthday, a trip to Evian, France, family visit from Holland and of course our developing baby and a recent scan! So I aim to update you with some pictures and details from all these exciting events!

Baby Blake 2!


We are very pleased to announce baby number two in the making! Our last post showed our trip to Prague and it was made extra special when we found out we were expecting again! Baby is due on the 11th January 2010 so I am about 13 weeks pregant now.
All is going well. I am feeling tired but generally well and have had only very mild pregnancy symptoms. Naomi is excited about the whole 'baby in mama's tummy' idea and we know she will be a great sister as she loves other babies! So here we go on the journey of Baby Blake 2. We will keep you updated!

Prague!

You must be thinking you have not had so many updates on the blog since Naomi was a baby. Yes we are having a season of trips away and it's great! Chris and I had our long longed for romantic weekend in Prague. Chris' parents had kindly offered to look after Naomi and we could leave knowing she'd have a great time too! Prague was just wonderful in every way. It's one of the most beautiful cities I have been too and for us the best combination of relaxation, romance and culture! And of course we couldn't wait to see our little girl again!




Church weekend away





We had our yearly weekend away with a bunch of 18-30 year olds from church and it was great! We were in the beautiful peak district in one of those old characterfull mansions for large groups amidst the hills and lambs. It's amazing how good it is to get out of the city and enjoy a weekend of walking, fun, games and encouragement. It was nice hanging out with our friends with children but also good to spend time with students. They in turn enjoyed playing with the kids so it all worked really well.
