Mr. DD took this photo of me standing in his nan's front lawn down in Somerset, near Exmoor National Park. The sunshine was glorious and unexpected. We tried to soak up as much of it as we could. Winter in England is such a huge bummer. I lived in Minneapolis for a while and LOVED winter there. Always sunny, cold and snowy. Perfect!
I'm so glad that things are continuing to go well for you and that you are enjoying your pregnancy! :)
All the best, Nilla
P.S. Having lived in London over the winter once, I can certainly attest to the horrid weather. I have NEVER been COLDER in my life than December through February in London!! January was so cold in our flat, I was convinced I'd never be warm again!! Pretty sad when you have to take a hot water bottle with you to bed each night!! And it's so true what they say about a "dry cold" vs. a "damp cold". Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!! I will take a dry cold any day!
Damp cold is the worst bit about the English winter. Since the gas bottles that we use to heat the boat cost over 17 quid a pop and, during the winter, only last about 4 or 5 days, we can't leave heating on in the boat while we're away. Coming home every night to a freezing cold home that takes at LEAST two hours to warm up totally sucks! Can't WAIT to move into our new flat!!
You look awesome! It's crazy how fast time goes by. The first time I read your blog you were only a couple of weeks in...a now you are a full blown preggy rock mama! Good on ya! Keep up the good work. If it makes you feel any better it is cold and wet here in winter too! We call it the wet coast instead of the west coast.

You look radiant. However, that seems like a dumb thing to say when someone is standing in the sunshine. Anyway, you do.
Also - where does one get sun this time of the year in England?
You look fabulous - and I hope you feel as great as you look!
Thanks, ladies! I feel pretty good!

That's quite a lovely belly you've got there!
