Hi Elle,

So Im getting bigger by the week! 5 1/2 months now and feeling the baby all the time. Its a girl and we are planning on calling her Fearne Lilly. Getting all the preparations ready for her coming in January. Mark Etchells has had a baby girl called Ruby Mai. Very cute.

If you see any novelty Baby grows with "I love Sydney" you know where to post em to!

Luv ya

Hi,Ellen. Glad you have arrived safely in N.Z. a further start on a new venture, which must be great, what an experience!!
From what you say, there is plenty to see, hope you managed to climb that mountain after all. We both enjoyed viewing the photos, whilst you were in Sydney,especially the surprise Birthday party. Sarah and Emily visited us last week, she is certainly a lovely baby, was smileing all the while. Quite big now, and begins to take notice.
Trust you are keeping well.
We both send our love, regards to 'George'

I've heard of him.....I think.....flutter your eyelashes a bit more and you never know your luck! Hope the job is still going ok and you're enjoying Australia. It's rain, rain and more rain here at the moment, going over to Elisabeth's on Sunday for BBQ, all the usual suspects will be there so will take some pictures to send to you. Emily is HUGE!!!! Well, she's normal size but she's definitely not my tiny little baby anymore! It's scary, she's growing so fast. She's still as smiley as ever, me and Andrew got the biggest grin when we came back from V on Monday (sorry if my text confused you!). She's laying on the bed whilst I'm writing this and she's just rolled over on to her front and now looks really confused (and she's just farted!!) I don't think she can get back again! Anyway, will speak to you soon. Lots of love Big Sis and Little Buddha xxx

Why doesnt anything like that happen to me!!! Thats not funny - all that has happened today in my office is - - - erm - - - NOTHING!!!!!
I hope that you got his number so you can give him a call and ask him to take you for a drink for your birthday!!!

Anyway, was just messing about on computer so will see you later at home xxxx

I just met the richest man in Australia! Served him a coffee while he is in a meeting at my offices. Its a Mr James Packer in case any of you have heard of him, he is filthy rich (apparantly) and single so you never know my luck may be in here (if i can just squeeze past all the models and actresses he dates!!) Fingers crossed hey!!

Great to speak to you last week and the job sounds like really good news - shame you have to work but at least you have a great view while you're doing it! We are all fine, next time we speak I promise that Emily will be a bit more chatty! She slept from 8pm until 6.30am the other day - just the once obviously, it would be too perfect if she did it every day! Not long until we go to V, can't believe I'm leaving Em for 3 nights, it seemed like a good idea last year when we booked the tickets but now I'm not so sure! Em is enjoying the swimming, we are trying to go once a week so she'll be a little water baby by the time we go to Tunisia in October. Keep the photos coming! Take care. Lots of love Big Sis and Little Buddha (not so little.......she weighs over a stone!!)xxx
