    Oh Mako... your poor DH. Sounds terrible, I hope you get some answers. Good luck with the post op appointment too.. I hope you get some answers from that too. I just know you're going to get your much wanted bub this year... we're all praying for you!!

    Yeah, we've had a MUCH better day today. I'm so proud that I managed to get the house cleaned!! Campbell was heaps better but still had some very unsettled moments throughout the day. His needles went well yesterday but he was not impressed. Cried a lot more than Luke ever did but it didn't last too long. Luke keeps saying "Campbell wasn't very brave was he".. so cute! We're very excited about heading back to Perth this week.

    Bun - we need to organise a catch up!!! Did you end up finding a house?? If so, where?? Let me know when you're free.

    Jayne - Yay on getting some snow... sooo exciting!!!

    Sorry, that's about all I have the brainpower for tonight. I'm still in disbelief about all the flooding happening in QLD.. it's sooo devistating and upsetting. I can't imagine what they're all going through up there... the world is such a strange and very cruel place at times and I'm struggling with that. My thoughts are with everyone in QLD and with everyone that has family and friends in QLD.

    KEL _ I'm so glad to hear that today is a better day than yesterday. WTG on Campbell pulling up great from his needles. Love it how Luke thinks he isn't brave. lol. I'll bet you're excited to take Campbell to Perth & show him to all your friends there & of course your Mum. I'll bet she flips when she sees how much weight he has put on!!!

    Must fly, my man has just come in from work. We are cooking prawns for dinner. Oh my taste buds are excited!!!

    Oh my, I almost forgot, you will never guess what they have in stock at the Hisense atm.................. TIM TAMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I nearly cried when I saw them. Small things.........

    Love Jayne xx

    LOL Jayne, you are soooo funny! Have some Tim Tams for meeeeee! Just as I started typing this, DH (who is working on the other computer, the one with Skype on it) says "who is Jayne S_____?". I cracked up laughing and said I was just typing a message to you LOL. Apparently your name keeps popping up.

    Kelly, glad you had a better day . I keep meaning to ask you, you know that nightlight you have in your toilet? Where did you get it from? I want one for DJ's room. Bet you can't wait for Thursday, and your mum must be so excited too!!! She and Graham are going to die when they see how big Campbell is now!!!!! Is Dean around while you're there? Oh, oh, did you get the black bathers??? Or have you got the patterned ones?

    Ohhhh Tim Tams... yummo... now I want some!!! LOL.

    Janie - I think Ryann got that little light from the supermarket.. it's great.. we've got a similar one in Luke's room. That reminds me.. I'd better remember to pack it for Perth.. I'll want it at Mum's!! Oh, I keep meaning to message you about the bathers!! Couldn't find the black one's at Doncaster but I happened to walk past Bras n Things and remember I had a voucher for them (from my birthday).. so thougt I'd see if they had bathers and found a much better pair for only $30!!! So I took the patterned one's back and used my voucher to get the bras n things ones. It's a tankini and bottoms.. so not one piece like I wanted but they're really nice and I'm much more comfortable in them. Different style too.. i'm sure there'll be some photos of me in them from Perth.. it's going to be hot, hot, hot over there, so I think we'll spend a lot of time in Mum's pool.. I can't wait. I'm sooo excited and have started packing today.. woo hoo. We don't leave until tomorrow night though.. I hope the night flight goes ok!!

    Jayne - PMSL at tim tams, but im sooooo happy that you are sound so happy and you are enjoying life in China. How are the precious princesses??

    Kel - enjoy Perth, you deserve a little break!

    Mako - good luck at the ob sweets, hope your DH gets some answers and he can start to get better. My mum recently went through something similar and after what seemed like a million tests it turned out that her gall bladder was inflamed and she had it removed, she is better for it now.

    Hope your all well, and to all the QLD lovelies, stay safe, and God be with you and your families and friends xxx

    Hey Lisa - Thanks for asking. Jessica was a NIGHTMARE over the weekend - to the point I considered selling her to a Chinese family (just kidding!), but I am happy to report that she has been amazingly well behaved ever since. Does everything I ask of her the FIRST time (not always without complaint), does her homework, & overall been a real pleasure. I wish I could report the same from Claudia. Today has been an improvement (but she was at school all day too, lol), but I am SICK of the freaking tears over EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!! It's instant as well, no warm up to it, just from zero to physco in a second. I hate it. I am beginning to wonder if she has delayed Terrible 2's? This is the first time she has ever really given me grief & she is almost 4!!! How are your 2 babies? IS Miss N still sleeping like a trooper? How is Miss A? Is she still doing daycare? Am I remembering correctly? Is she off to kinder this year?

    KELLY _ Have so much fun in Perth babe. You are definitely going to work out your poolside bod that's for sure. It's sweltering in Perth. When it's so hot it doesn't make me jealous that I"m stuck in winter while it's Summer in Aus though. Sometimes the heat is just too icky. KWIM? But you will have so much fun & so much help from your Mum & it'll be great. I'm sure the night time flight will be perfect as well! Luke is a good traveller already.

    JANIE _ Oh well, you might as well tell DH to flick me a text on Skype - given that you NEVER do! bahahahhaa. I will be his new cyber friend. lol.

    I better fly, 2 kids in bath having so much fun, it's bound to end in tears.

    Love Jayne x

    Mako - I read about your DH going for test etc the other day and I've been crossing my fingers that all is ok. Good luck with your ob apt too.

    Kel - Enjoy Perth

    Jayne - My girls sound very similar to yours. I can't motivate Sara to help me at all, Loren is going from happy to ballistic in a second over very menial things and Eva is just a little tiny pocket rocket full beans and tantrums. I am having serious bedtime issues with Eva atm. Tonight it took me 2 hours to finally get her down. She just yells outs, kicks the wall or screams. If I try and rock her she scratches and hits me but if I leave she screams so hard she makes herself sick...Did I mention I need a holiday??? Sorry for the rant lol.
    Hi everyone. I am going to make a point of coming in and doing some personals very soon.

    Good luck with the apartment hunting Jayne..Hopefully you'll find something suitable very soon
    Can't wait to catch up with you again in July too

    Willow You most certainly do not have anything to be sorry for. I totally understand how busy you are settling into a a new home with 3 kids and loads of visitors at the same time. It was great that you guys managed a quick visit here on Saturday though..Sorry we couldn't catch up for longer but we will sometime soon
    Your pics on FB look awesome and I can see how truly happy you guys are just by looking at them (and well done for uploading your 1st ever photo album lol).
    When does L start pre school?

    As for us..DH is back at the GP later this arv..He seems a bit better so that is a good thing. Sage is doing really well apart from being FULL of attitude..seriously I'm not too sure how much more I can take atm..Every time I ask him to do something his reply is " no too bad" or another favourite is "oh damn it"(thanks mil). If anyone has any tips on how to deal with this PLEASE let me know..I'm trying to ignore it most of the time and I have said a few times that we don't talk like that cos its not very nice

    Lee I've started looking at planning our trip to Tassie in October. We look like we'll be there from about the 16th or 17th until the 23rd I've put a sad face there as we will be away for Sage's birthday and I'm feeling very very guilty about that and he won't be coming with us. We will be in Launceston from the afternoon of the 20th I think and will be at the event at Midlands? for the 21st 22nd and 23rd. We will fly into Hobart and out of Launceston and will do a bit of traveling for a few days I think..Let me know where you are and we'll do our best to catch up somewhere

    Hi to everyone
