Well I've finally managed to drag myself out of bed and post some photos of my holidays. On Tuesday this week I woke up feeling terrible. Went to the Doctors and found out I've got a chest infection and the flu - Not nice at all - so that meant total bed rest till the end of this week. I was put on antibiotics (which doc assured me were safe for during pregnancy) and now I'm feeling a lot better then a couple of days ago.
Following are some photos of our holidays. We were gone for 2 weeks and spent most of that time up in Ningaloo camping on the beach. I have definitely had better holidays (I was a bit miserable and suffering from morning sickness and first pregnancy worries etc etc) so I think it did more stressing then relaxing - oh well these things happen. In the end we left Ningaloo a couple of days earlier then planned and spent them in Carnarvon in a cute cabin in a caravan park. I finally managed to relax (maybe coz I had a proper shower and toilet etc). Well we couldn't complain about the weather - we had beautiful 30 degree days (the nights got a bit cold). Ryan managed to get some fishing in and caught some great Spanish mackerel. We did a bit of snorkeling and swimming. Spent a day in Exmouth getting more supplies and doing some shopping.
On our way back home we stopped off in Bindoon to celebrate my parent's 35th wedding anniversary. We stayed at the Orchard Glory Farm Resort - such a beautiful place. We arrived on the Friday and then got home on Monday. It was great catching up with all the family again and what a perfect weekend to share with my family that I was pregnant.
Here are the photos:

Loved all your pics Erica. The Ningaloo ones bring back fond memories. I dare not show Andrew those ones or he'll want to pack up tomorrow...lol. All those spanish macs...wow. Looks like you had a lovely weekend with the family in Bindoon as well. Great way to catch up and make announcements. Hope your feeling better soon and get over that infection. Take care.
ERICA!!!!!!!! WOWOWOWOW Congrats on the pregnancy!!!! I am over the moon to hear!!! Can't wait to get back and see you!!!!
Erica that was quite a post, i know how long it takes to download photos and then saving them and getting that post right!
You sure had great weather, nice catch of fish and great time with family, then all those sicky feelings fade away hey! Not!
Never mind it will be alll worth it. And not nice to have an infection to top it all off,
well rest as much as you can!
Take care and sure you are still pinching yourselves on your exciting news:) May God bless all to go well. xxJen
Hiya
Woooo Hooooo, there's going to be a little Erica or Ryan running around. Guys congratulations, that's so cool. Hope the morning sickness has eased off a bit, lots of Mums swear by ginger in capsules or tea, also peppermint tea is very soothing.
Sorry have been so slack but will catch up soon, have to pack now cos I am running away from home LOL
Cheers, Connie
