Life has changed! Our new baby girl is such a dream, we have been very blessed!!! Everyday is a different day and she is becoming more alert and now knows who her Mum and Dad are. It's amazing to think that only 11 months ago we would have never thought that we would become parents. Everyone has been so kind and generous , we are very spoilt, THANK YOU EVERYONE X X X Maddy coming home... I haven't picked up a paint brush for a couple of months but have been clicking away with the camera instead. Hopefully after the winter months I will find a studio space and get back into creating masterpieces. My mind is full of many wonderful ideas and I'm itching to get back into it. I have even been thinking of studying something but not sure what, when and how? I have always been fascinated about people and the mind so I may go off in this direction. LIFE ROCKS!!!

February 2009

Man time flys past, we are into February already! Loads has been happening in my life....I only have 6-7 weeks of my pregnancy left, I have a new niece Lucia, became the treasurer of the Wanganui Arts Society and loving it, we love our new home, and started a new business Tizard Design Today I have been playing around with a new art website My Art Plot it seems to be like DeviantArt . I'm not sure if I will use it much but everything is worth a try. It is one of those hot, hot days here today. I started it with a cold bath and have been cruising around in my togs and sarong . I haven't been able to keep drinking enough water and am feeling like a bloated cow from water retention , I'm wondering if I'm going to need to get my rings cut off or not? Oh the joys of being pregnant. I have volunteered to be the model at the portrait class next Saturday and I'm hoping I will be able to do it with our looking puffy. We had a great Christmas and New Year. My wonder...

Our Baby Scan

We went for the 20 week scan today. We thought we would find out the sex but it was shy and had it's legs crossed, will have a nice surprise at the birth, I think it's a girl most days but it's really hard trying to guess. Here are some of the pictures from the scan.....

Middle of August already!!

Talk about a long time since I have written in my blog. It's been good not using my computer as much as I did. Yesterday I went for a walk around Durie Hill and got this photo of our building with it's lovely new colours. Last week I found out that I'm pregnant. It was a bit of a shock but we are both very happy and talk about getting excited. I'm so lucky to have my sister helping me out. I was trying to talk her into becoming a Midwife yesterday as she would be perfect!! Wanganui has a shortage of them I think there are 15 midwives and 800 babies being born a year. I heard some people are being shipped out of Wanganui to see a midwife. This was another photo I took yesterday I love it when the moon is out!!! I think the moon coming over Durie Hill is one of my favourite sights. I'm lucky to have such a good seat in our house to watch this! I have been busy doing lots of different things like the Tarot every morning which has been interesting. I have never kept a ...

Social Networking ROCKS!!!

Visit THE KEYHOLE a creative social networking website Yesterday I found a cool place on the net which allowed me to start building a social network website for all creative people. It was so much fun and I'm really excited to have a space for all my creative friends. I have been lucky to have friends from all creative fields and I have always wanted to have a space for everyone. My last job in Auckland was a casting assistant, so I was surrounded by actors and people in the film industry. I got to know all the agents in Auckland which was MAD fun! I have always had a passion for music and I seem to attract musicians like you wouldn't believe. And of course all the visual friends I have made over the last 6 years. So here is hoping that everyone will feel as excited as I do and we can get a good bunch of people together to share their creativity and passions. I had a beautiful surprise on Monday in the post, my sister In-Law, Christine Tizard, had sent me a book 'New Zealan...

WINTER is here!!

For the past week it has been snowing on the mountain so it has been bloody cold here! I am a Summer girl and I like to always be warm, so I feel my brain hasn't been working as fast as it normally does. It was Shaughan's sisters 40 th birthday last Friday and we went to her house for a party. It was so much fun, I got to meet loads of new people and make new friends. I really feel blessed to have married into the Tizard family they are all such lovely kind people. We headed out to the hot rod show, the weather was perfect! I was so impressed with all the colours of the cars, it made is so yummy walking around them. My favourite car was a Chevy but this orange coloured car was my favourite colour! I think Shaughan and I will have to buy a hot rod when we have a house with a shed! If you are interested in having a look at more of the cars I have put my photos in the gallery on http://www.wanganui.org/ We headed out to the beach later that afternoon and watched the sun go ...
