Photos, evidence of progress.

Firstly baby progress, this photo was taken at 29 weeks, 5 days. The bump is really getting somewhere now. The thing that really gets me is that I have another 2 months to go, bub has to a bit more than double in size between now and then. I'm going to be huge! Not that I mind much, I love my bump and I seem to have hit on a clothes pattern that really suits me, I feel prettier than I have in a while.
This is what our dining table looks like these days. I can clear some space in the middle for us to eat if I have to, but mostly it's my work space these days. On the right you can see the snap press that I borrow. Mr b^3 managed to pull a muscle helping me to put snaps on the nappies, it takes a bit of force to use, but it beats using a hammer hands down. On the right is the binder that I keep all of my children's patterns in. I have separate binders for different categories of patterns with each pattern piece in a separate plastic sleeve. This is one of the few areas of my life where I am super organised but if I weren't, my patterns would get destroyed so it's well worth the extra effort.
A nappy! Finished! Look at those snaps, the bright colours, the well set elastic, all in a tiny newborn size.
32 finished nappies, oh yes, oh my! All washed and ready to be put away. I was beginning to get sick of them by the end, but they're all done. Half are a newborn size and the other half are the next size up so I should have enough to last until the bub is at least 6 months old. I still need to make stuffers for them but I'm still mulling over what would be best for that.
I did have a photo of the clothes I've made but that didn't seem to make it. To cross of the list are 4 short t-shirts, 1 long t-shirt, 2 short onsies and 1 short pair of overalls.

It's almost 33 degrees outside and it's only 11.30 am. I'm beginning to appreciate the particular conditions of being this pregnant though the summer - flake out, keep hydrated and try to get through. Fortunately I get the splint off my finger tomorrow and I can go swimming after that, I can't wait.
