Getting bigger

It seems like I haven't posted for ages again, but this time it's cause I don't spend that much time over here anymore I like to stay at home and do my own thing and relax (also due to the fact that everybody here smokes so it's not really nice for me).
I've knitted a case for my new mp4 player, I winged it so I didn't use a pattern, but I'll take some pics soon so you can see it=) I'm now currentley knitting a new scarf for myself. I'm using a pattern from the latest Simply Knitting issue, it's a lacy scarf and it works up really easily, again I'll take some pics soon =) I'm also going to make a matching hat for the scarf, but I'm going to use this pattern for it. I've been wanting to knit it for a while so now I've finally got an excuse to =P I'm thinking of putting a nice button or brooch or something on the hat to add something more =)
And when I've finished this then I'm going to start crocheting some booties, I haven't found a pattern that I like yet, but I'm sure I will soon =)
Last Thursday I went to see my midwife and she told me the results of my bloodtests, that I had done after the scan in the hospital last time, and she said everything was fine and I'm also immune to Rubella so that's good. She also felt my bump and she said the baby is growing really well. And then she listened to it's heartbeat with a special little device and she said it was really loud and strong! It was the first time we heard it's heartbeat so it was really special and amazing =D
The second scan will be on November 27th so we're really looking forward to that one as it'll take alot longer then the last one and they'll look at little details and see if everything is growing ok and such=)

Say hello to....


our little baby! This is a photo of my first scan that I had last tuesday! Last thursday the 4th was my birthday so it was the best birthday present ever! It was so amazing to see it move and to see it's little heart beat! They said it's very active as it kept moving around, that's why it's got it's legs up in the air on the photo haha =)
When I was looking at it on the scan it felt like it's a boy, I don't really mind weather it's a boy or a girl it'll still be ours and perfect =)

I've been looking for lots of things to knit and crochet obviously and I've found a few things, but most things I've seen online are really pastel type of things that I don't like, we want our baby to be a rock baby hehe so I'm going to knit it some kool and funky things =D My mom said she still had some clothes that my grandmother made for me aswell and she said I can have them which is so great, I love the fact that I'll be giving my child something that she made for me with love , that way it feels like shes still there in a way =) This is making me all emotional btw lol damn those pregnancy hormones!

I'm getting a bit of a bump now finally so I had to buy a pair of maternity jeans which are so much more comfortable! I can still fasten my trousers, but then when I sit down or bend over it hurts so I'd have to leave the top buttons open lol

I'll be catching up with everybodies blogs now=)
