Is that red I see....

A short update on what's been happening around here.We have been slowly moving to the new place bringing boxes over and giving the place a little sprucing. Hubby has been working like a beeh on his DIY projects, Bunnings sees him more often than usual. I have come to the realisation that if you have the right tools , anything is pretty much do-able, same rule applies for everything else I suppose. One of the beauty of being in Australia is that people are pretty much self reliant, this place encourages independence like no other. People take things a little for granted in other parts of the world mainly in ahem ahem Asia , where a tradesman is called in for the simplest of household maintenance. I am proud to say that we are both enjoying this nesting project and learning the tricks of the trade as we go along, I am not of much help due to the expanding belly, I feel like Humpty Dumpty . The hubby though calls me a Prison Warden as I sit in my comfy chair and delegate. "Move this box here and do this and do that!". I never knew I could be quite the boss, Oooo the things you get away with when pregnant! The pregnancy has been going ok or so I pray. I wish I had an ultrasound machine at home to relieve my paranoia, someone slap me! :D The good thing is that I've been feeling the baby flutter and will see my Obgyn in 2 weeks. Thats when we'll know the baby's gender. At the last ultrasound I thought I saw a little tinky winky but the Ob wasn't willing to confirm it! I'd like to know so that I can shop but it's been good that I don't which hasn't led to any impulse shopping. I've been busily window shopping and boy I've seen sooooo many lovely things I'd like to buy and have listed it all in my trusted shopping diary. I envisage a shopping rampage soon! My sister has nicknamed the baby Molly and hopes it's a girl ... what about you girls? Do you think it's a boy or a girl? Lets hear your guesses!

By the way on another note, seeing that many of you have participated in the I saw red week hosted by Sadie Olive. I thought of joining in the fun and doing red Perth style.

Hop into my stylish cadillac with the red wheels and come along for the red ride .

Vrooom vrooom...

My first stop is the Victoria Park Post office, well thanks to the unreliable Postie I'm always having to stop by here to pick up my parcels. It's such a vintage building so I don't mind :)
Driving in Perth is pretty much traffic free, the only thing you don't want to get stuck in is one of these railway crossings. It takes like forever for the trains to pass by and I really mean forever.
When the weathers lovely, I love driving to the Perth foreshore to say hello to these Swan River inhabitants. Red is so the colour for the lips!

Then I get hungry which takes me to my next stop. It's called Kailis and I like to go to the one in Fremantle. This has to be my favourite Fish and Chips joint. After a good meal, I head home and laze around and dream of all the red things things that have inspired me. Hope you enjoyed my red tour of Perth as much as I enjoyed sharing.
