    LOL Maz I have 2 girls, man are they hard work, boys are so much easier, but I love them anyway, BHL said that if we end up having a girl ( if we get our 4th ) he will go work out on the rigs and only come home for booty calls... lovely... But I can see his point God help us when their hormons kick in!

    boys are easier???? ya reckon?

    I have been at school this afternoon because DS8 is a bully!
    I know he is boisterous and very competitive with his older brothers but she has had some parents complaining about him being too rough and name calling in the playground.
    We have had behaviour issues with him for a few months now but I didnt realise it had passed over to school as well.
    Trouble is this child has absolutely NO consequence of actions whatsoever. He doesnt seem to have a currency that affects him and we have tried everything we can think of.

    She is going to talk to the behavioural expert they have at school to see if there is something else we can try,because she agreed with me when I said he just doesnt get it. It doesnt go in, well it certainly doesnt stay there anyway.

    Today is one of those days when I think I am done!

    Hey ladies, was wondering if I could come back in to the forums. I have been very busy with the 5 kids now but just lately have been getting that feeling that another one would be nice. Not sure if DF would agree with me lol but I can only ask.

    I'm hearing all you others on having girls!!!!! My oldest is 15 and what a nightmare. We have been told that at 16 she is legally allowed to leave home so she is and also that she is going to finish school (year 10) at Tafe but I don't think she realises that she will need to work nearly full time to pay for her rent, food, etc. I'm hoping she comes to her senses before the beginning of next year of I'm not going to hold my breath. We had to have the contraceptive implant put in when she was only 14 as she was going out to friends places for sleepovers and getting drunk (only found out this when she admitted it as we don't drink and had no idea she was). AAAARRRRGGGHHHHHH

    I have had some trying times with my now DS 11. He seems to be picking up on his older sister's attitude so all I want to do is slap him up the side of the head to get this notion right out of it. He is my sporty boy and plays soccer but he also plays school cricket, netball, football and soccer. He trains 2 days a week for weekend soccer and then runs all day at school with the various teams he is in so I think he is just overworked and not eating properly.

    I've had to laugh about some of your responses to housework and washing and OMG can I so relate. I just can't keep up to date on any of it. There is always clean clothes waiting to be folded in my loungeroom and dirty clothes waiting to be taken out to the laundry in my hallway and bathroom and dishes waiting to be washed in my sink. Never mind the sweeping, mopping and dusting (what's that??? ) I'm hoping that later this year we can afford to hire a friend of mine to come over and help me clean up once a week. We do have a house that can be a 5 bedroom with 2 loungerooms but we are using it as a 4br with a dining room and 2 loungerooms lol. We are also lucky enough to have an inground pool so in summer the kids have somewhere to play that is not indoors.

    I didn't realise I had written an epic lol so I'll sign off now and chat some more later.

    lol Fleur, i think i might spike the food but with some tranquilisers pmsl. I think it might be the only way to get some peace in the house for a couple of hours. Sometimes it is hard to tell the difference between my 15yo and my 3yo lol. They both love to chuck tantrums

    We have school hols starting after today - OMG will I survive until the end?????? Ok 15yo DD has decided to stay at home now but still get a job and finish yr10 at tafe. We are going to write up a contract and we both have input into what goes in it. After much negotiation we will sign it and it will be valid for 12 months. I'm hoping that we will either have a caravan for her to rent from us or we fix the garage into a little flat. That way she has her own place but still is close enough for me to keep an eye on her lol.

    Cathie5 believe me we have thought of doing that with our others lol I still have 2 more girls to go yet and I'm not looking forward to it. I agree let #6 be a boy lol (not that we are pg yet )

    I get to have a couple of days off during the holidays as I'm going away with my mum for a weekend. We will take in a show and spend some time shopping and just doing all the mum/daughter stuff that we have never done before lol. It should be good and I'm looking forward to it (mainly because I will be kid free lol)

    Have fun in Melbourne Maz. Let your MIL take over for you and you have a good rest up lol we mum's need it.

    Yay cathie, well done. A little boy to add to your brood. Well I'm still not sure. I did a test this morning but not an early detect one and I think there was a very (very, very) faint line so still in limbo land here. Will have to wait to test until later in the week (or buy a new early detect one ) but shhhhhhh not telling anyone yet lol

    Congrats Tegam on number 5. Are we crazy having soo many kids. Anyway Hubby went away to NZ for a week and left me with 5 kids, it has been fun. I'm preggo with number 6 and I wanted another after this little bubba but I have changed my mind I think 6 is enough. Just trying to look after these kids all by myself has been soo much work.
