I’m still here …
May 7, 2010 in Uncategorized
Hallo everyone! I’m so sorry about my loooong absence here in blogland – however I never stopped reading all of your wonderful blogs (and commented here and there!) I can’t believe that it is more than a month since I last posted something.
So the reason for me being missing in action is that I can’t really stomach food at the moment due to morning (noon and evening!) sickness! Yes – I’m almost 10 weeks pregnant!
It’s taking me a while to get used to the idea – I forgot everything about pregnancies and all the symptoms associated with it. Especially the nausea! Sjoe – it’s way different this time round – but I believe there is light at the end of the tunnel as the first trimester is almost over and out! I also can’t wait to have a big juicy steak again (can’t face red meat at the moment!) And of course to be blogging about food again – I hardly cook anything nowadays – so I’ll have to make up soon!
Little one is so excited – she is a real little mother and she can’t wait to help mommy with the new baby! She is turning 7 next week (I can’t believe it!)
I want to wish all the mothers out there a very happy Mothers day for Sunday. I hope all of you get spoiled rotten!
Hierdie is vir my ma!
A Precious Mother
Mom you’ve given me so much
love from your heart
and the warmth of your touch,
the gift of life and you’re a friend to me.
We have a very Special Bond
which only comes from God…
I’m sure you agree.
As a child I would say Mommy I Love you
now you’re my Mother so dear
I love you even more
with each and every New Year.
If I could had chosen,
I would have picked no other
than for you…to be my lifelong friend
and Precious Mother.

Enjoy the rest of the day – it’s almost weekend!
Hugs

congratulations! try some ginger for the nausea – and most of my friends could not stomach meat either so there must be something in it!

Oh wow that’s amazing! CONGRATULATIONS!!! I’m telling you, preggy fever has hit. You are the 5th person in the last month that I know of that’s fallen pregnant!
I also suffered from TERRIBLE nausea and nothing helped. I lived off lemons, energade and bovril toast for the first 15 weeks (found out when I was 5 weeks pregnant)

Thanks Tandy! I have tried ginger beer, ginger ale, ginger & lemon tea and ginger biscuits – not helping! I’m sure I’ll feel my old self soon again … xxx

Thanks Ally R! You won’t believe it but my sister is also pregnant – we are two weeks apart! Preggy fever for sure! And she doesn’t have nausea at all – very unfair!

Thanks so much Jan – hopefully I’ll feel better soon! You must also have a wonderful Mothers day on Sunday – and no cooking – let the men do it for a change! xxx

Ag dankie Sharon – ek is seker dit sal gou oorwaai! Julle moet ook ‘n lekker naweek hê – gaan jy weer lekker kook vir jou ma-hulle? Kan nie wag om te sien wat jy alles gaan maak nie! xxx

Baie geluk, Minnie!!! Ek het gewonder waar jy is! Ek hoop die morning sickness sal binnekort weg wees! So bly om jou weer te sien!!

My ma het haarself ‘gecheat’ uit Moedersdag.. My Tannie hulle en ‘ander ma’ (ma se best friend) kom almal vir sondag lunch by hulle)! hehe
Maar ek sal darem iets saamneem, en gaan moet help met die res – sal seker more my instructions kry! Dalk cupcakes maak vir al die ma’s? xxx
kattiemajinks said on May 7, 2010
Ag dankie Pinks! Ek het julle net so gemis hoor! Ek glo ek sal sommer gou weer my ou self wees! Lekker Moedersdag vir jou ook en geniet die naweek! xxx
