Time flies when your having fun!

This year has gone so extraordinarily fast; I cannot believe that in two months my baby boy will be four! I’ve started thinking about his party due to being reminded 3-4 times a week by one very excited kid. This is the first year where he is anticipating  his birthday so I need to make it a good one! I’ve been busy ‘pinning’ idea for the party and his daycare Christmas party – http://pinterest.com/trez08/favorite-recipes/

The observant will notice that I also have a pin board dedicated to all things wedding… and that’s because D and I were engaged over the weekend! I had planned a big house clean on Sunday whilst Mr. 3 was at my sisters so we were up early and at Briscoes loading up on new buckets, mop heads and scrubbers. I had a lovely wee whinge to my sisters MIL about how my arvo would be spent on my hands and knees cleaning the toilet…little did I know!

We got home; I started hanging up some photos, assuming Dave had gone for a wee nap. He comes out all dressed up and demands that I go get changed into something nice (Loo cleaning attire isn’t the flashest!). We had an awkward 25-minute drive into town and pulled into a car park where behind a wire fence was a helicopter. We sort of just looked at each other with just a nervous/excited/don’t you dare say anything giggle. The helicopter ride over Wellington was stunning, totally blows your mind to have such a marvelous view of your city. The helicopter then headed towards the West Wind Farm and then dropped down into a secluded bay. We walked the coastline and sat down on some driftwood near the beach. D must have been looking for the perfect spot because as soon as we sat down he told me we weren’t just here for a ride and got down on one knee! –tear- it was so surreal! We had always said that we would want to choose the ring together (or I did, ha!) so he presented me with a small token - A silver ring that he had engraved with ‘Teresa Hill?’ on it. Involuntary smile, I could not get it off my face! Perfect proposal from the man who is perfect for me.

We’ve talked over wedding dates, it really does depend on where we at baby-wise but hoping for Summer 2013. Have purchased my first bridal magazine already. I can picture D’s eyes widening reading that, ha ha ha!

Gripping his leg, nervous about going up so high!

Flying back an engaged woman!

Very happy to follow up my previous post with this happy one!

I will endeavor to get an updated garden post up within the week and then one after our Fertility Associates appointment.

Until then! x
