Pink & Black

I don't know what is wrong with the lighting here, or why my eyes insist on being so crazy but so be it.

The Husband is still my loyal photographer but if in public we get one or two goes, and that is it. There is no reshoot.
Do you ever wonder who takes the photos for those rather popular bloggers who seem to go on expeditions to take photos of their outfits? I wonder too.

See these sandals? Get used to them. 

My feet really don't fit in anything but these and thongs at the moment which is not very glamorous. 

I am lucky that my work have been kind enough to allow me to wear them as they definitely don't work with our dress code.

I'm wearing:-

Kookai dress, backwards of course because the real neckline is just weird.

Kookai cardigan, handy in hiding the size of my bum

Witchery sandals

Necklace from Bali

The annoying thing about these dresses is that the bigger my belly gets, the shorter these get and they ride up when I am waddling. Inconvenient for someone who doesn't like her legs or knees.

I bought an actual maternity dress for the festive season and low and behold, it's long! Success. 

We are frequent San Churro occupants these days but on the weekend I really didn't want anything. 

The Husband was practically peer pressuring me to get something so I opted for the Peanut Butter Besos, hot damn, I was hooked.

It's that salty peanut butter like you get in Reese's Pieces but in thick shake form, hell yes. 

We also bought our pram on the weekend and got it on mega sale!

We were originally looking for the Joolz Day Earth but then discovered that neither of us liked the brown leather trim, so looked at the Joolz Exploration but didn't like that colour combo either - too armyesque.

The Husband has wanted a 'light and pure' pram from the get go, so when he saw this colour combo he was sold, and then when I saw that it was also on sale, I think I was more sold than he was!

So we got the standard Joolz Day pram and as it was a special sale thingo they threw in the nappy bag and parasol for free! We got it at such a good price, I am rather excited by it. 

I think I will probably keep this nappy bag on here as the basket is not very big (but you can buy big shopping holder things), and then use my Marc by Marc Jacobs bag also. 

Don't tell me that it will get dirty because I do not want to hear it! 

All of my google skills tell me that I can pre-treat it and then they clean up pretty nicely or whack it in the wash.

I just love the height of the bassinet, and that the inside is not black so the baby is surrounded by light. 

Both our parents are being really generous and buying a lot of things for us, which I am so grateful for.

As we were trying to stay out the heat, we crossed the road to the new Ikea in Springvale which was dead.

I am so used to the Richmond Ikea being crazy busy on a Saturday but it really was dead. 

I think we are possibly the first people to ever walk out empty handed, but we did leave armed with a list of the stuff we will buy (see my previous Ikea post here) and The Husband has also decided on the custom wardrobe he wants, complete with draws for his watches and ties. 

Maybe I made the wrong move by accepting his offer of having the walk in to myself!  

Despite walking out empty handed, we did get lunch and a hot dog for the sake of it.

I figured that the vegetarian burgers were probably slightly less likely of giving me food poisoning than the meatballs so gave them a shot and actually really enjoyed them. 

I don't know about you but my go to drink when feeling a little off is Apple Juice. It must be the sugar content because it picks me up instantly.
