    jessebel - hope your house didn't move next door, like mine did. Had to get help to push it back into place (lol)

    Kittykat - It is crazy isn't it? For me no matter how much of a drama it can get with a big family I just love it. I really think tho, I need my head read - hehehehe. Everytime in labor I always say to myself, why did I get myself into this for. Yet I still go back for more. I think however if I am blessed with another, it will more likely be the last. Unless my dh decide to make it an equal number again. We'll see.
    I know what it is like getting clucky. Can't help it. Goodluck for a bfp, and you get your baby boy that you are trying for.

    I think we are both crazy wanting another baby, but I feel exactly the same way with feeling as tho my family is not quite complete - whole. Still feel as tho something is missing.
    Goodluck for a precious baby boy.

    Diet fairy is good we have had lots of success on it, my dh has lost 14.5kgs and I have lost 7kgs, so I say give it a try, and for $50 for a year it isn't as expensive as some diet plans.

    Hey girls - yeh holidays are just about for me!! Its fuuny how you always end up with more kids than just your own! People seem to think hey shes got six whats one more and you end up always having extra kids around!!!

    Yeh well Im a bit crazy too and can't wait till I am preggers again. I love babies!!! Miscarried a few months ago but praying for another little bubs sometime soon! I don't want to have kids oover 40 (Im 36 now) but I get so clucky I don't know if I can stop! Is it just me or does anyone else feel like that? We will just have to wait and see I guess.

    Hi ladies, May I join you all too??? I have 4 kids as well with a little cheating as the first two are fraternal twins ( boy/girl) who love and hate each other as only 7 year olds can. My 4 year old is addicted to the playstation and whinges about playing more than he actually plays..LOL and my 7 month old looks on and knows already whats what. Its the end of the first week of holidays and feels like a month already. So what do we do but invite more friends to stay...yes sure..LOL... I don't know... love the chaos but already had 4 cups of tea tonight as they all finally lay sleeping.. so thats us.. pretty much the same as everyone else, including those who feel the clucky monster knocking on the door again..LOL..

    Hi and thanx Jo and csab for welcoming me. Welcome also pip2jays. It is great to talk to other people that enjoy big families, I know most of my friends and family think we are mad for having so many kids. Isnt the clucky monster nasty!!! I have six and would love another if i wasnt scared of having to have a c-sec again.I am praying that the cluckiness goes away . Anyway hols are almost over hear that means back to my organised chaos i guess. Morning to all hope everyone has a great day.

    Welcome to new people.... yes I too have a case of the cluckys!! ROFL, then I look at my big boys and think again. School holidays--the big boys bought little remote control helicopters at the hobby shop. Of course one was broken by the end of the 2nd day. Why am I not surprised? And of COURSE it wasn't his fault. No, the helicopter just broke itself. He would never fly it into the light, or against the ceiling or wall, or let the 2 year old grab at it, now would he? At least I didn't pay for them

    Everythings good here..its been raining heaps though. We went to one of those games place thingies where u can buy games for xbox etc so we bought a couple of games with one of those steering wheel things...big hit here..They dont play alot on it so nice to get some use out of it in the wet weather! Other than that, we have some friends coming over this arvo for a bbq. Easy peasy here for now...im sure I will be as frazzled as anything next week.

    Wow what a day (not thats it even close to being over) ! Had to take DS to work which is 25kms away.Decided to take rest of tribe to the park for some lunch and a play, and omg it is so windy here today!!! We didn't stay at that park too long. Ended up going and grabbing a cuppa from Maccas and then went to another park which was not on a hill. That was a bit better, they all had a ball, even my 6mth old had a play on the horse, he thought it was very funny
    My youngest DS has what they think is mild floppy baby syndrome so to see him holding on and having a good time was the highlight of my day
    Now its time to clean bedrooms and do the folding
    That has to be the worst part about a big family i reckon, there is always some sort of washing to do, wash it, hang it get it in fold it iron it (only if absolutely needed) and then put it away, and then what do you know its all back again and waiting Oh well so it shall be.
    good luck with the hols jesabell, i love them, as its less stressfull in the mornings.
    Chat later
