Stellenbosch and Franschoek

Our accommodation in Stellenbosch, Cape Town


The one where the kombi is parked was where we stayed. It is inside a complex with lots of these little townhouses....we had 2 bedrooms and it was self catering...just enough because we were out most of the time during the day. Really had a lovely stay :)

In her Bumbo seat :) 
One of many moments in her car seat ;) 
But she just LOVES driving!

Relaxing under her playgym :)
It was during these two weeks that she started taking toys with her hands and enjoying the playgym that she got as a gift from my aunt while visiting them there...such precious moments!

Standing in front of a house my dad stayed in with his parents and siblings as a child growing up in Stellenbosch. One of many homes of his childhood :)

 This was at a French restaurant where we had lunch...it was stunning, the scenery especially and so romantic!





Back at the holiday townhouse....just chilling :) 
She was wearing her vests or just in her nappy most of the time, the heat was pretty bad at times.

24 weeks and counting! :)

22 weeks Wow, time seems to be flying like crazy now! I am 24 weeks today...this pic was taken at 22 weeks. I am loving every minute of it all...just battling a bit with backache and sore feet at night. But after a long hot bath i always seem to feel much better and of course a cup of hot chocolate made especially for me and little Chanette by my darling hubby to make us feel more relaxed! ;) It has come to a point now where her movements are so strong that i can lie down and see my tummy move...haha! So amazing! She and her daddy are enjoying each other's company with chats and him playing guitar at night...she moves around as if she knows, so sweet! I am so thankful for a wonderful man like him in my life, i could not have asked for a better husband! We are going on holiday for the first time since our honeymoon, leaving early Sunday morning and coming back next Friday. Can't wait to relax and just spend some quality time with him :) My next appointment is on t

More photos...

Ready for church! I just love dressing her up on a Sunday! Hehe! She does not like shoes or socks on her feet and gets very irritated when I throw a blanket over her while she is still awake...no way! She needs to be asleep and then I can put it over her. She already has a mind of her own. I can see her running around without shoes in the future...oh dear lol! Just want to heat her up!!! :) Mommy loves you so much my girly!

Ons liefde vir jou word net sterker elke dag en ons dank die Here dat Hy jou vir ons gegee het. Ons is baie baie lief vir jou Chanetti! Jy is Pappa en Mamma se klein Poppie! :)" Al ons liefde xxx Finally able to play in her playgym :) what fun! Sitting in her eating chair at "Ouma and Oupa's" house...(my in-laws) Oh and does she enjoy it...hehehe ;) Her shirt's writing is in Afrikaans, it means: "Daddy's little sweetheart" :) With her BabyGym instructor...Aunty Tracey :) This was taken at Chanette's graduation.
