BabyMoon and 24 week update

We had an absolutely fabulous time on our break to the wild coast! Umngazi was fantastic (seems the place to go if you have kiddies as they keep them entertained till they are fit to drop LOL - braaing marshmellows on the beach etc!). We will def consider going back there once Imke is of the age to run around!

Stayed at a fab place in Underberg on the way down (http://www.birches.co.za). Little cottage in the forest & such wonderful people.

Haga Haga was good also, although the place is old & with my heightened sense of smell the musty sea-smell got to me!

Was lovely spending some quality time with Jeroen & we got to discuss a lot of things that you don't get to chat about on day-to-day basis.

One thing that was a bit not lekker was all the driving... my lower back was very uncomfortable no matter how many pillows I sat on LOL!!

We had our 24 week dr appointment today and Imke is growing ferociously! Her head circumference is that of a baby 2 weeks alder than she is....... & already almost a KG!
