Down to the single digit countdown now, Yay!!
I still have not got into the babies room to sort it out but I'm sure I'll get around to it before too long.
I keep telling myself that maybe I should start to slow down a bit and not have everyone else's children over to look after but I don't have the heart to say no and really I am managing fine. I am still able to sing on the worship team at church and don't really want to stop at this stage. It is something that I love to do and also something that David and I do together. The kids are great and enjoy coming down to the church for practices. It also exposes them to music and they get to catch up with friends.

Bubs is still very active but not uncomfortably so. I get a lot of movements on the top right hand side and also in various places on the left. Don't ask me what position the baby is in based on these movements as I have never been good at identifying body position and limbs. I don't know how the midwives can tell. You would think that after having 4 babies already I would have some idea but sadly no.

I am still enjoying being pregnant and feely very fit and well.

Caleb is full of energy but the girls help a lot with getting drinks for him. It really is easier the more kids you have.

My last paragragh reminded me of being told not to use the word kids when referring to your children as they are not baby goats but I think it is a cute name for children and use it anyway.

I bought some chocolate bars today from a friend at our Mums group. She was selling it for her son who was fund raising for his soccer team (I had to help him out.) I gave one bar for the kids to share out and have just scoffed a whole bar down while I have been writing this, what a glutton. It was pretty yummy though I must admit and there is still one more bar left for a later stage.

I have my midwife appointment next week and will be every 2 weeks from then. I can't believe how quickly time is passing by. I usually find this end part of pregnancy is slow but I think bubs will be here before I know it.

I think I have said all I need to for now so will sign off. Bye.
