Good News

I hear that Darren and Katie are expecting their first baby! It is very exciting. Good on them- hope the pregnancy is OK Katie! Many congratulations to you both.

Our weekend was good but busy. I worked from home on Friday which provided an excellent opportunity to prepare for the dinner party we hosted on Friday night. (I did officially clock off a bit early- but I did work for the rest of the day!). Actually I had been to the doctor for a routine check-up earlier in the day and heard the baby's heartbeat for the first time! Also found out that my doctor's daughter has the same rare blood disorder that I have so he will be looking out for me in particular he said during my pregnancy! How cool! Anyway, the dinner party was with Nikki and Dan (my old flatmates from my renting days in London and previously friends from university) for those that know them! Nikki and her husband Chris brought their new son Alex along- he is lovely and so well behaved! I think it has lulled us into a false sense of security... but so good to see them.
Saturday we drove up to Warwick to celebrate a marriage (different from going to a wedding as they had already gotten married in Las Vegas in October). It was lovely to see everyone...
Sunday we did jobs around the house - Simon is busy decorating one of the bedrooms (once that one is done just our room to do- and the hall,stairs and landing of course!). It is looking great. I entertained my sister-in-law and her fiance and then did some ironing and some sunday paper reading. all very pleasant! they go by far too quickly though! cant believe it is monday again....
