Joys of pregnancy

I've been up since 2:20am.  Most babies 'drop' as the time for delivery looms closer, but I think little Isla is confused about which direction she needs to move towards and bypassing my tonsils would be the wrong way but that's what it feels like as I CAN'T BREATH!  Everytime I toss, Gioia mirrors my movement.  This encouraged me to sneak out of the bedroom and into the cosy media room so I can blog and she can rest.  At one point while I was sneaking an extended sniff of her little girly scented skin and hair she turned to me and we bumped brows.  I winced as quietly as I could but she heard and in her sleepiest state said 'sorry Mommy'! I'm in love with my co-chef bath time buddy, she is possibly the most magnificent pre-schooler in our hemisphere. Two and half years on and it boggles my mind that she can still take my breath away as often as she does. 

Yesterday at ten thirty new little Jhoana Truebody arrived into the world.  Here are the first images of Rebecca's carbon copy raven haired sibling.

Bean is certainly the girliest of girls, she climbs into my cupboard daily to put on my shoes or to find an accessory that will compliment her handbag or hat.
