So let me give you a short update on what I have been up to.
- Very, very little baking has been going on in this household - I just haven't had the time or energy for it for quite some time now.
- I finished my second subject in my Bachelor of Business (Accounting) degree - and I got a high distinction
- And oh yeah - I had a baby!
Grace Ellen Zakarevicius
Born 29th October 2010 at 6:28pm

After a very quick (and painful) two hour labour my darling daughter arrived in this world. I won't bore you with the birth story, but it is suffice to say that I won't be doing that again in a rush! Ouch! Focusing on the positives though, there were no complications - Grace was perfect and I was up and about within minutes. Here we are just minutes after she was born...
And then after a lovely warm shower, with Grace dressed in her first ever wondersuit...
And in case you are wondering this was my last pregnancy photo that I got to take - it was taken the day before Grace was born, when I was exactly 39 weeks.
So that is my rather large news - only took me 7 weeks to tell the blogosphere, because now little Miss Grace is 7 weeks old and going strong.
I hope to keep this blog alive, but at this point in time I'm not sure what I will be blogging about because I am trying to lose a little bit of weight and baking does not fit into the weight loss equation very well. I'm sure I will think of something though.
Stay tuned!

Congratulations on the degree and your darling new daughter, Alicia! What about making the blog about healthier baking? That could help (and inspire) a lot of us as the New Year rolls around.
Many, many congratulations!!!
Congratulations on Grace, she is just beautiful! I have always enjoyed catching up with your blog, so keep it up it you can, and we don't mind what you write about - weightloss, babies, baking, study anything!

Welcome back!!
congratulations! she looks absolutely gorgeous.
my second birth was quick too (and painful). i vowed never to do it again......and then i did. but my third birth was slower and calmer (i had a water birth). after that i felt i could do it again, and again, and again - but i won't! three is definitely enough for me :)
enjoy these precious early moments - i do miss having a little babe.
