I am now 35 weekspregnant and it feels great to have reached this week. I have read about somany twin pregnancies that have not lasted nearly as long, so I am feelingpretty good and grateful that my babies are still all cosy inside of me, growingstronger and stronger as they should be. I am not going to lie, the exhaustion,wavering blood pressure, aches and pains along with the occasional bout ofgiant elephant feet sometimes get me down, but it is all cake really – It’sjust tiny details of a much bigger picture that I am in the middle of creating.
I have been havinga lovely few days so just thought I would share some of the good stuff that hasbeen happening.
This week I havebeen working on the yummy for the up and coming mummy in me... this could nothave been done without Chelsea who gave me a very pampering and gorgeous spapedicure, it was an hour of heaven. I felt so chilled out during and after andI now have very pretty toes (never bad).My lovely friend D was her sweet self and used her skills on my fair locks toturn my dragged through a hedge/subtly casual look, into a shiny, bouncyfabulous one. I love it when she does my hair, as not only does she do anexcellent job – we always get to have fun catching up. My friend Anneyalso came to stay this weekend. We watched films, girl talked, ate deliciouslysinful food and added food babies to our tummies (nice to give the twins atemporary friend) and generally had a very chilled out time. Best of all, Roband I worked on the twins’ room which is now nearly completely finished (wejust have a couple of pictures that we need to hang on the walls & we alsoneed to find a less ugly light shade). I love the room - It is looking fantasticand kinda unique. We found these great little Japanese paper animal balloons tohang from the ceiling. They never deflate and are super cute; I think thepenguin might be my favourite. I am feeling calmerabout the nearing birth of the twins and this is mainly down to Rob. He hasbeen so sweet (saint-like in fact) and has talked me down from my emotional ledgeon many occasions. He makes a good director to my drama queen. I feel very,very lucky. Below are somepictures from my fabu few days.
