Not sure if it can be said Roland is "enjoying" biking to work more now, but seems to be finding it a bit easier in the second week - and isn't coming home as exhausted as last week. Here is a photo of his spiffy new bike:
The car has been guzzling up a fair bit of gas though, although driving in to work has been working out very well for Jax, who is still tired but not AS tired. We are also pleased to report that Friday night was the only night we didn't eat dinner at the table, but it was "takeaways" night anyway so a little laziness was allowed ;)
The friend we mentioned in our last entry hasn't had the baby yet, the kidney infection took a little while to clear up, but is 100% definitely being induced *this* Monday, so we're hoping the next time we catch up with them it will be a visit with baby Ethan as well.
And to continue the baby stuff topic, we had our last antenatal class on Thursday, which was both nice and a little sad - we did come away from it with a lot of good information, and a contact list that all the other couples had filled out so that anyone who wants to keep in touch with each other is able to.
Jax has also been busy putting some more finishing touches on the nursery, click HERE to take a look at an online album with some of the photos - almost everything is ready, all we need now is our baby ! :P
No other major news, but we have had the fireplace and chimney cleaned out as well as some firewood delivered, which will add a nice warm touch during winter and hopefully help us cut down on our electricity bill. The office is still in chaos and may have to wait a bit longer, but Roland has been tackling some of the outside work that needed doing, as we have to start taking advantage of days when it isn't raining - another one of the joys of winter in NZ.
To cheer things up however, here is a photo taken at the height of summer, on our trip to Opotiki for Rols' mums birthday:
Take care folks !
Love J, R & Baby Girl Bird
