Sitting here wondering if I'm Pollyanna or Eeyore - Day 282: Welcome to the world Noah (my new nephew!)

My nephew Noah arrived today in perfect health and in record time with no complications! Hooray!!

Got the call from mum walking back from Erko station after seeing Gone Girl at Event Cinemas in the City. I later had a chat to Steve, my brother, a very happy, excited new dad! YAY!!!!

Swimming Pretty in the Glass-Half-Full 2012: Day 257

My gorgeous guy was so excited for me - he didn't want me checking out the story till he could see it with me (I couldn't resist though on Wednesday looking it over!) - and is my biggest and most enthusiastic cheerleader and I adore him for it.

So supportive is he that he came straight over after driving 3 hours from Bathurst and had dinner with me at Sherpa's Kitchen in Newtown with a delicious Tempus Two Cabernet Merlot and paid for the whole thing as a way of celebrating with me.

I love him to bits. He is what makes these achievements have any lasting worth.

I was trying to remember the name of a friend's baby daughter hence all the pondering looks for me and Steve (above)
