Sorry about the lack of communication...
Baby Muir, baby daddy and I have had a very busy September, full of work, family time, and growing the baby.
We went back up to Auckland to see the family from 7th to 9th September.
Here's the Muir Family get together
The next day we had a Hsu Family and neighbours gathering
There were lots of laughter, stroking of baby bump and generally catching up going on. Everyone was over fed and it was lovely catching up with family. Made the whole baby growing experience more real!
We have been told at our last scan that we are growing a baby girl with 90% certainty, so the family has been over joyed at welcoming a girl into the family.
Andrew has decided to name her Sophie Muir. We are still waiting for the Mandarin name.
Baby Sophie and I have been given a clean bill of health last Tuesday as well. So she is growing very well. Mummy Muir has not put on too much weight - only 3.2kgs, but that is normal too.
Daddy Muir has felt the baby kick last week and is now very excited to put his hand on the belly to feel more kicks and movements. Mummy is not so keen for the kicking, as it disrupts a good night's sleep. zzzzzzzzz
Daddy Muir has also been hard at work going to the gym three times a week! So far he has done lots of kilometers on the treadmill, strained his right achilles heel, popped one of his knee, and sprained the other knee. He has also gone for an MRI to his neck to try and figure out what's wrong with his shoulder. We don't hold much hopes for the result, but at least it will clarify the situation.
Only two more weeks working full-time for me, so once I'm no longer gainfully employed, I will be able to update on a more regular basis once again.
Will hopefully have a photo session this afternoon, so will give you all a glimpse of the size of the baby bump next week!
Love lots,
Hannah, Andrew and Sophie
