Summertime!

My father-in-law bought a boat a few weeks back and him, Quintus and my brother-in-law has had a few "fun days" on it just fishing and relaxing! This photo was taken on one of those days. Can't wait to be able to take Chanette out on the boat!

My sweetheart! :)

All is well here in sunny South Africa. We've been enjoying some much needed rain, so refreshing! :) Nothing like a fresh summer afternoon rain! We have been working in our garden a bit too and things are starting to come along nicely after the cold winter months. Quintus and i went out for the morning to have a bit of "alone" time on Thursday, Chanette stayed with her granny. I must admit it felt so strange doing it for the first time...i couldn't stop thinking about her and if she's ok and i found myself walking to the baby clothing in every shop hahaha! I love her so much! It's amazing how your life changes once they are there :)


Our baby girl went for her 6 weeks injections on Monday! Oh my how awful :( she was in so much pain. The nurse let me hold her while she injected her two legs but it was so hard for me to literally see the pain and shock in her eyes! I know that all the mommies out there know how i felt. Have to take her again at 10 weeks and 14 weeks.....eek, so not looking forward to it :(

My girly after the injections. 

Later that evening :)

Latest photos before the holidays! :)

My mother-in-law made this cute sheep for Chanette! I just love it :) It is just a stuffed sheep...and it looks so cute in her cot. It lies down and rests against the cot or her pillow. It is my dad's birthday and one of my sister's in December. So we went out for dinner on the 16th of Dec to celebrate :) My dear parents! My sister Chantel's little girl, Luzelle. They had a photoshoot....simply adorable!!! :) She lights up my life! :) I thank God for you every day my darling Chanette!!! :) This was taken today...at the age of 15 weeks and 4 days :) We will be leaving for Cape Town next week Wednesday for a short holiday and to attend a wedding! Really looking forward to it! I will be sure to post pics and news about it all when we get back in January! God bless you all dear family and friends :) Happy New Year and enjoy the holidays with your families! May God be with you xxx Hugs :) Leana and Chanette ;)

19 weeks...update! :)

Morning from cold but yet sunny South Africa! This week is my 19 weeks mark...time sure is going faster now. And i am loving being pregnant! :) For the first time i can actually enjoy it all! I went for my last scan about 2 weeks ago and we found out it's a GIRL!!! So exciting :D Her name will be Chanette...i read a series of books before we got married and this was the author's name and i just loved it immediately! So we got our first pink outfit from my parents and now the shopping can begin! hehe! I felt Chanette move on Saturday...it was such an amazing feeling...wow! I have felt some movements before but always thought maybe it's just my stomach or i'm hungry...never strong enough to think it's actually baby moving. But this weekend it was so real! :) I am loving the idea of a little person growing inside of me and knowing that i will have the privalege to be her momma!!! :) Other than that it's going well here in SA...it's autumn now so g...
