Happy (belated) Canada Day !!

Alrighty boys and girls, here's the weekend round-up - and what a weekend it was !

Friday night was a quiet one at home for Jax with the fireplace, TV, and a pizza - while Roland had a work drinks thing and came home later on (in a taxi).

Saturday was pretty quiet, Jax had some shopping to do (food) and then a friend visited later that afternoon to discuss a few things around labour and birth, as she is a massage therapist and likely to also be a support person for us.

Saturday night we went to a pub quiz organised by the Canadian Club of Auckland, to celebrate Canada Day. We had a very good time, met some new people, re-connected with some people we had met before - and even won a prize in the raffle draw (3 tickets for $5). However, it was one of life's true ironies that the prize (2nd place) happened to be a six pack of this:



We are going to try and save it for after the baby is born so at least Jax can partake in a couple !!

Sunday (today) just flew by, the morning was spent cleaning house in preparation for our Tupperware party, and then between lunch and 2pm getting all the snacks and furniture arranged. A good time was had by all, and the baking from the demo that the Tupperware lady (Sandy) did was *delicious* - the recipe was for Vanilla Custard Puffs. The sales weren't too shabby either, and we had a good time choosing some new things for ourselves as well.

Just a few things happening here and there this week, work as usual for Roland at least. Physio on Monday for Jax, midwife appointment on Tuesday - and there is also a very special birthday coming up on Tuesday too *cough* mum's !! *cough*...

And that, loved ones, is about all there is... take care of yourselves !!

Love J, R & Baby Girl Bird
