Hi
i hope your little man is better soon Dee.
You go Kath - its hard sometimes but they tell me there is light at this end of the tunnel!
csab thanks for asking but no i took Mitchie to doc today after staying up until 5:30am this morning and he has the beginnings of croup! The poor little fella had a crappy night and i dont think tonight will be any better
Anyway i might check in a bit later
Katstribe - So sorry. It is so hard when your little ones are sick. You just want to wave a magic wand and make it all better. What a shame we are unable to do just that. Take Care
Morning All, not much too report on the home front today I'm afraid. Well it is only the beginning of the day. Older ones still asleep.
Thanks girls for the help I will put all the families details in when I have a bit more time (probably never)! Believe it or not all 6 kids are well at the same time! And me - just a constant croaky voice and I don't smoke, I think its because I have to repeat everything I say twice! Better run
Now that is a miracle Bree, to have a big family and for all of them to be well at once in winter!!!! I wish that was the case here. My DH is sick(yay) and Mitchie (youngest) has croup, so this household is having a great time atm!!!
Thankfully the doc gave him some predimix to knock the croup on the head a.s.a.p. but they can only have 4 doses, lets jsut hope thats enough!
he is definately getting better and the cough is nowhere near as bad now.
katstribe i hope the medicine works i havnt a bubs with croup i dont i could imagine how hard it would be you take care too make sure you get enough rest.Well im home on my own with kids tonight DH has gone out to a family doo ( his side ) and the kids were not invitied so i decieded that if we all not invited we all wont go but DH is doing the right thing and showing his face eat and come home im not at all bothered they are very snotty people i just dont fit in if i wanted to i could but wouldnt be me im a steak and 3 vegi kinda girl. I has been nice just me and the girls they love funny home videos so we watch that together with a bit of ice cream its nice.
I feel silly just blabbing but it good to chat i went to work to day i teach kids to swim i love it 4 hours in the pool can get a bit much but its good to get out of the house interact with other adults and just to have a chat. DH would be happy for me to give it up but the way i see it by the time Ella goes to school i will have to look for full time work that means i will be out of formal work for 9 years thats a long time so i think i need to keep up some kind of work i thinkit will help in the long run plus the money helps to put fuel in the cars and i love the job. I think i might have a bath a wine and relax for a bit before DH comes home no doubt there will be thetap on the shoulder lol men there so predicdable

Kath i think we were lucky with this croup as bub is getting better. I have heard some terrible stories of bubs with croup. Thankfully we got to it early . He is still sick but at least we can see he is getting better.
I think its great that you are doing some work, i wish i was for that fact that by the time DS goes to prep i will be needing to work. Ihave very litlle experience in the working world as i was a mum at the age of 16. I have done farm work, bar work and housecleaning in the past but i want to be able to do more than that when the time comes.So i know where you are coming from.
Hope you had a good night lol
Hi to all
hi katstripe i know what u mean ive only ever worked as a housekeeper which i still do one day a week i never got time to study or go to tafe to do anything else so when jess goes to school i will be too old to do anything.
hi how are we all my eldest is turning twelve tommorow god its gone quick it only feels like yesterday that she was my little girl.shes not that anymore somedays its hard to get a nice conversation out of her without yelling at each other.shes still on hoildays so tommorow we will be able to spend the day together dont know what we going to do though not much money dh hasnt been working much so the funds are a bit low.better go hope everyone is well
hello hello i hope all is well with you all.Jesabell i know what you mean the 12 year old daughters its hard to think they were sweet and lovable once. Not a ot here im now looking after a friends little one shes 2 the cash is very helpfull and its been going good so far the kids are all sick even DD 4 months its so hard to see them sick theres nothing that you can give them when they are so little just lots of hugs and love vix panadol blah blah and i need a wine by the end on the night. Ella doenst really sleep that much i know that it takes a little while for them to get into a routine but i can see where this is going with Ella the same way as Siaan she never slept but was the brightess little bubs i need sleep more so in the mornings Ella will rise between 3.30am and 4.30am then the two toddlers will then be up at 5am of late if been telling them they cant get up till the sun rises but thats no good now it rises to late and they just muck about waste of time really i need sleep i need sleep i think i will book in for a nanny night that should fix me for a while

I think you are dead right about people assuming you can cope with anything, and we get stressed just like everyone else, esp with sick kids and broken sleep. Our 2 yr old wakes in the night and comes in our bed and i know its cos shes cold. Hope you have a good day today and the kids are better
