Is there any baby news???

Hi there... I'll let the photo speak for itself:

Poor Mikayla is having a love/hate relationship with her phone at the moment... every time it rings or she gets a message it's to ask if she's had the baby yet... and the answer is still nope!  Unfortunately for me I have to get back to Rotorua first thing tomorrow morning so it looks like I won't be meeting my little grandbaby for a while :(

Since we really didn't have anything else to do today we went down to the park for some more photos and I'm pretty pleased with how they turned out.  Mikayla's keeping most of them for her own album but I can share this one with you:

While we were at the park I also spotted a fabulous sculpture dedicated to Burt Munro which I know Michael would have loved to have seen so I got some photos for him:


If you don't follow through on your dreams, you might as well be a vegetable. Burt Munroe


You live more in five minutes on a bike like this going flat out than some people live in a lifetime. Burt Munroe


Thanks for visiting my blog and I'll be sure to keep you updated on bubs xx

It's Monday... and there's no baby yet!

Hi there :)  Bubs has still not made an appearance into the world.  Mikayla is currently 5 days overdue and she's tried EVERYTHING to get baby going... although we are waiting for the naturopath lady to get back to us. 

In the meantime I thought it might be a good idea to get out of the house and take some photos... so Mikayla took me all over Invercargill looking at old buildings (many of them churches) and we spent a happy couple of hours just hanging out together.

When we got home it was getting pretty dusky but we grabbed Chris and went to the park for an impromptu photo shoot.  Most of the photos were terrible due to awful lighting and out of focus shots but I've got a couple to share with you.

Here's Mikayla and Chris by the water fountains at the entrace to Queens Park... Mikayla was standing on the wall around the fountain!

They also had a 'chat' with Peter Pan and Tinkerbell to try and see when baby might make and appearance but they didn't have a clue either:

For those of you interested in seeing a little of what Invercargill has to offer I thought I'd share some of my favourite photos with you.  I'm sharing the photos 'as is'... no photoshopping... no touch ups... just the way they turned out... apart from my blog label of course.
