Omigosh (yes, again) ... my friend Yoshie's Hens Night was this past weekend. Fantastic day at Spa Botanica followed by drinks at the marina and Japanese for dinner at Satsuma at the Gallery Hotel.
As we were all about to toast Yoshie and her "last night" as a single girl she said she had an announcement to make ... she's pregnant! LOL, yes a couple of weeks before their wedding. But here's the amazing part .. later in the night, when it was just Yoshie, Maz and I in a cab on the way to dinner, I broke the news to Yoshie that I too am preggo .. and guess what .. we are due within one day of each other. Wow. Very excited to have someone else to go through it all with and to be yummy mummies together next February ;)
I have to say, I was so so so impressed by Yoshie's effort on Saturday night. She'd never even been to a Hen's Night before and yet she was such a good sport - despite being on the waters all night.

BFP! (Big Fat Positive)
Omigosh. Sooooo ... we really are going to be parents! Well, in about 8 months time if all goes well. Hard to believe when it's all happened so quickly, I was just telling Aunty Shirl when she was here that we might "wait" a few months .. big fat lies but that's because I wasn't sure if we would get lucky so soon.
Over the moon at the moment, have rushed out to buy new books already. Can't find Up The Duff anywhere in Singapore, but am now the proud owner of What to Expect When You're Expecting, What to Eat When You're Expecting and, for Mike, The Pregnant Guy.
Broke the news to John and Elly just before they hopped on their plane back to Melbourne (sorry about that!) and I have dropped the G-bomb on Mum and Dad as well. I *think* they're excited to be grandparents ;)
I joined up at Pure Yoga this week as well, good timing really as I will be able to do prenatal classes with them right through, although I am sticking with regular classes for now. Not too impressed with old Rick, the Aussie sales guy, who stuck both feet in his mouth when he spilt the beans to my girlfriend who had referred me to the yoga centre! D'oh! So he was left feeling a little embarassed and Maz and I left feeling rather stunned .. didn't get angry till later at lunch when I had to say "OK, pretend you weren't there earlier and this is a surprise ...." Not cool.
Still. At least that's one less person to tell big fibs to about why I'm not drinking!
