Still alive–not much kicking though…

-

Haven’t been sleeping too well for quite some time (Doc apt tomorrow) and just feel very exhausted .. no, wait, that’s not right … I just don’t feel refreshed after a 7 hour sleep. Sometimes it’s due to the twins waking me during the night, but I can’t use them as excuse for the whole time. Headaches have increased again, too (only 1 migraine so far though, touch wood), which concerns DH quite a bit. I suspect it’s just linked to not sleeping too great.

Still getting out and about with the girls, today we were in the garden for a bit (both have colds … just waiting to catch that one myself), watering a lot of grass and compost… Winking smile

And yesterday we were swimming for a bit. It’s amazing how the girls go from leaps to bounds in the water, can’t wait visiting my family again where the pools are a bit more …mmmh… kid/family friendly. Smile 

Friday I got to hold a 9-week-old twin at the BBT to give the mummy a bit of a tea break. Nice feeling, but barely can remember the feel of the girls at that age … huh!

Thursday we went to meet with another set of twins at Craigie’s, and the girls are just getting more and more interested in that Tractor! Winking smile

Wednesday was a meet up with friends at Toots Cafe – think both Toots & Craigie’s will be on my list for go-tos for future outings.

Right now I’m reading the prompts and forum posts of Shimelle’s “Cover to Cover” – I’m really keen to look further into that, although I have to say I haven’t been scrapping much in 2013. Really need to prep more kit bags so I can scrap something in the evenings when the girls are in bed…

Right … now another request to read a book… Hopefully will post more regularly again now… (hah… might believe that myself .. LOL).

Christmas Journal Entry #2

Phew!!! Took me longer than I thought!!! :) Maybe I should leave the crafty bits out ... I am a slow scrapper after all (found that out at the Cyber Crop!!). But have to say I LOVE that LO. Used acetate with stazon white opaque (over photo), snowflake eyelets, snowflake button and snowflake vellum sticker. The prompt today suggested we cut a paper snowflake ... well, I had three attempts and am absolutely rubbish at it!! So I decided I try my luck with a quilled snowflake ... first time ever for me to do a snowflake and you can see the wonky result! LOL.

 Here is my Final Round up for the Photo Scavenger Hunt 2013: 1. Open air market (Market Stall outside Kew Station, London) 2. Theater for performing arts (not a movie theater) ( Edinburgh Festival Theatre ) 3. City Hall, Capitol or other similar civic building (Dumfries Council Buildings) 4. Airplane (Our Virgin Flight plane to London) 5. A sunset (opted for another picture than posted before, as this sunset is more stunning! It’s taken at Knockbrex House, Dumfries & Galloway, with view of the Bay) 6. Someone or something taking a nap (there’s too much cuteness about, and still so many photos of the Hobbits falling asleep ) 7. A sign that is intentionally or unintentionally funny (Seeing it was Maple Pecan Ice cream, the note  “May contain other nuts” makes you really wonder…) 8. A tower (Watch tower at St. Cuthbert’s graveyard, Edinburgh, defending against grave robbery) 9. A photo with someone or something that is clearly out of place or doesn't bel

Official!!!

Still struggling with sleep deprivation from Superbowl on Sunday, but hey … maybe I’ll get finally to sleep BEFORE midnight. And since 11am this morning the “little secret” from the Adamsons is now not a secret anymore. WE ARE PREGNANT WITH TWINS!!!!  The IVF run in December was positive (typical, the one we thought won’t do anything and we’ll have to go down to London to get immune issues checked out), and we had our official 12 week scan today. Both Chip and Chap are doing fine, are moving about, have all limbs and noses and chins and heartbeats. And I’m feeling as if a big rock’s been removed from my shoulders … have been reading too many horror stories about twin pregnancies resulting in just one baby born or even losing both. Think with 5 years IVF in the bag we know far too much about the medical background and are more likely to worry about what COULD go wrong instead of “enjoying the pregnancy”. But there you go – all going ok, tests were normal as well (don’t have t
