[1MOREPLZ]

yeah GiGi thanks for thinking of me....
am on a cleaning rampage today!!!! i have washed all the walls down in our bedrrom, just coz i had too! vacumed chnaged the sheets/doona cover curtains are in the wash....
might also wash the flanny flats again.....before bub arrives.. (32 days.. not that i am counting :P)
belly is killing me... LOTS of tightenings...

[Gigi]

i kept looking at the clock all day, thinking "at this time, they will be drivign to the meet. at this time, the meet will be starting. at this time, they will be in the thick of it (german potato salad and chocolate crackles flying everywhere. by this time it will be over and everyone will be driving home".

so it's 7pm, and i couldn't help myself, had to come in, just in case anyone had posted about the meetup.

i must be a MeetupTragic. (runs and hides)

WOTBB: lotus night nappy with disana woolly pullup soaker

[Arimeh]

Gigi - I feel the same - nobody ever comes to visit me ....

And now Christy is moving.. pffft.... there goes one more Queenslander biting the dust...

[Nelle]

Aww girls, it would have been great to have you at the meetup! Sammi seemed pretty surprised! And a good time was had by all. Very fun. I'm very tired now. But don't worry Iggle Piggle, it's not the first meetup we've ever had, and it won't be the last, not unless the world ends tomorrow or something! So you'll just have to try for another one!

Very tempted by the Blueberry Pockets Ange, reckon I'm sold on those, if I ever need more. Of anything.

ABut don't worry Iggle Piggle, it's not the first meetup we've ever had, and it won't be the last, not unless the world ends tomorrow or something!

Well if the Hadron Collider has its way Nelle it may just be!!! PMSL

Thanks girls for making Sammis day so awesome!! Oh and Geoff says thanks heaps for all the leftovers he just had for dinner!!

[Olive]

glad geoff liked the left overs!!!

fantasitc day chicks!! well organised by you three and soooo glad sam got a surprise!!

[Nettie]

Nelle - Blueberry pockets are my favourite! We've got 5. Got a 4 pack of minkee at Baby Blossom for $135 - bargain if you ask me! The cheetah one feels like fur - so lush!

My MCN talk at Mother's group went ok. Hard to get a word in edgeways there though so I think I was only half listened to. I offered to lend one Mum a few MCN so she can try them out as she's not sure her DS will tolerate feeling wet at all - I said the microfleece liners keep Liam dry so should make that issue non-existent. A few other mums already have a few MCN but aren't brave enough to try the night nappies yet. We'll see if they come on over to our side!

Went 'fluffy shopping' at my local store yesterday - but they didn't have much stock. I like what I've got now so I didn't want to buy any more 'types' iykwim and they had 'Mummys touch', 'parents & pumpkins' and BBB. Well, I don't need any more BBB, don't like the p&p I've got so didn't want to buy any more of them and didn't want to try the MT as they didn't look any better than anything else I already have. So I bought the last BumGenius they had, a wool soaker and Motherease Rikki cover (so I can use my prefolds again). Only spent $84 so now I'm off to do some shopping online tonight DH isn't home so it's a real pity if no-one's here to slow down my shopping, hey?

WOHB - Sandman & longies

[Nelle]

Mel - about your cupcakes Rans said 'wowwww. Are there any more?' And about the socks when he felt them, 'why aren't houses and computers made out of this too'? I think he's tired too. :P

ETA: Nettie, that's great your talk went well, you never know what people hear, and at least they know who to ask if they have questions. Have fun shopping!

Gigi

I'm super tired and Caleb is sitting on me but couldn't crash for the night without saying thankyou so I started a thread HERE
Am worried about accidently forgetting someone which is the reason for lack of personals.

Had to do another one of these Youse girls rock!

[Olive]

nelle as you probably know i have 11 bluberries so if youd like to borrow one your welcome!!

sam im buggered too!!

sophie was asleep about 10 mins after we left!

[maz]

*yawn* yes tired here to...had 2 glasses of wine with tea and I think they have gone to my head.

Had to laugh at my rudie little girl who had to strip down to just her nappy (like mother like daughter Jed told me )...she picked out a fluro green monkey doodlez swimming nappy withh a yellow duck on it. She liked it so much that she wanted to take her IB off and put it straight on.

Oh Gigi - I ordered a SB winged (yes you'll be pleased I picked it) mama pad made form velour...grrrrrrr. Cant wait to get it.

OH and apologies in advance for my tart of a son who lovesssssssss the ladies

[Daydream Believer]

We just got home, I went straight to MIL's after dropping Mo home & we ended up staying for dinner. Just about time for me to wander off to bed. The look on your face was priceless Sam!!!
I had a great day, it was awesome to put faces to names with those I hadnt met yet.

Now to decide what carrier I want to get.......

WOHB- IB snap in which will probly leak soon coz she's been in it for 3 hours and fell asleep on the way home from MIL's

[Kazbah]

Well Pip fell asleep on the drive home, and other than waking for some milk he's stayed asleep! Vy really wore him out Maz

Mel, thanks again for today, and Maz too

Sam - congrats again hun, hope to see your lovely beads strung

WoHB - ummmmm BBB with FJ cover, hope it lasts overnight.

[Gigi]

WOTBB: dragonfly magik night nappy ai2

[alioops]

Gigi, dont worry, look forward to Tuesday

I am sad Our MCN have all been packed and we have to use sposies until the 26th It had to be done though. So sad seeing them all in the box and then taping up the box

Today was the PERFECT day to wash them all though. Washed and dry within a couple of hours!! warm, sunny and windy. I ended up getting 5 loads of washing done!! I hope that tomorrow is similar coz it is raining now and there is 1 last load on the line.

Gudi Mel, You may be losing Christy, but you get me!! Now how far from the sunny coast is townsville?

[Arimeh]

pmsl @ Ali..

Honey its about 1400kms away...lol....

[suse]

It's OK Gigi - I'm jealous too.

Ali, you'll be closer to me in Cairns than you will to Brissy, but you'll still be over 300km away!!

Glad you guys had a wonderful day!! Big Sam. And yes, photos would be good...

WOHB: Bamboozle and soaker

[christy]

ohhhhh Mel! are you going on Tuesday? Will I see you all there? can I have a cuddle???

Girls, I am over trying to knit a soaker... I'm totally hopeless. So I decided to get sewing a go. LMAO I'm one of those kids atm who has things in the cupboard that they start and never finish

This was Friday's efforts. I went to Vinnies on Thursday & picked up heaps of vintage sheets.... and 2 old tableclothes that are plain colours.... Then Friday I cut out the first dress, ironed it and then sat down to sew it up and *whammo* my machine freaks out... could be its been 3 years since I've taken it out of the cupboard LMAO.... ah well... will try to stay inspired.

So no nappy talk.... maybe swap talk?

WOHB: BBB & Maz-a-licious cover
