Forgot to mention that I had some more good news last week.
After a rather drawn out process I have landed a great new job with a London based design communications agency. It's a fantastic opportunity for me and a real change of direction (having worked in the public sector for the last 10 or so years).
With a bit of luck and a following wind this should be the beginning of a long and rewarding career.
Am due to start at the beginning of July - can't wait!

seal of approval
K and I had a few days away at the beginning of this week to celebrate our wedding anniversary.
We had a thoroughly relaxing time and had some fantastic meals to boot.
On the way home we passed Nippers and therefore popped in to check out the Quinny (see 23 April nippers entry).
Again the ladies in the shop were fab and they even did a fitting to ensure the car seat etc fitted our car.
Good news is that it has won the seal of approval from K so all we need to do now is justify the price tag...
Oh, it comes in red and back too so will compliment the car perfectly :)

good news
Got the results of the blood test back today and I'm very pleased to say that baby bean is low risk for any abnormalities...I guess s/he will be leaving that to his/her father... :)

baby got rhythm
K had her second appointment with the midwife today, which included some pretty standard health checks like blood pressure etc.
I am pleased to say that all is good and the best bit was that K heard the baby's heartbeat for the first time via some sort of midwifery gadget (perhaps a Doppler Fetal Monitor.)
Shame I wasn't there to share this first hand but with the 20 week scan only a few weeks away I won't have to wait long to see how things are getting along.

pro rad mini me
OK, OK so Offspring V1.0 has not yet arrived but I see no reason why I can't start planning for the future - particularly when it comes to cycling.
So imagine my surprise when I "accidentally" stumbled across a fantastic selection of bike trailers.
The Burley Bee particularly caught my eye...
Oh, and by the way K is now getting the beginnings of a bump and bought her first pair of stretchy waistband jeans at the weekend.
According to the reference books the bean V1.0 should already be around 10 cm long and weighing in at approx 80g (2.5 ounces).
