The baby bump.
I am super excited because we now own an iPhone which means I now have an easy to use camera with the-bad-photo-fixing-wonders of instagram (hence all the decapitated self portraits).
Today has been a bit of a rainy day, and not just because it rained. Rainy days are inspire me days, the I-can-create-wonders days.
Not many wonders were actually created, admittedly, but after a bit of household cleaning and a thorough perusal of pinterest, I felt completely motivated and wrote a looooong list of to-dos which I gradually narrowed down to three main things.
1. Prepare for baby. Yes, only nine weeks left and I feel thoroughly unprepared in the physical sense. Still so much to buy and make and do.
2. Blog. I want to start recording our day-to-day lives more. Not just because no. 1 is on the way, but because recent events have made me realize how important the day-to-day things are. They matter, even if only to me. Journal writing was a no go, because I always give up halfway due to either hand cramps or disgust at my un-beautiful writing. And journals are easily misplaced. So blogging it was.
and
3. Draw something. Achieved. I got down and I did it. I don't draw as much as I used too. No school means no bored scribbles in my text books on a daily basis. I miss it. I think I need to draw more.
I was happy with the finished result, which is a rare occurrence. Perhaps I'll frame it.
And that was my rainy day. I like them. So rain, come when you please. You make a productive person out of me.

On a random, only-really-matters-to-me side note, we have grass! I'd almost given up hope. Laying seeds in the heat of summer was a risky move, but after constant TLC and a few overcast days it paid off. We now have a wild (but soon to be mowed, thanks Ty!) lawn for our friendly wallaby neighbours to poop all over.)
Lovely.
