Argh, my iPad ate my lovely long post, now I'm cross!!!

Just a quick one now to say hi. You'll notice in the next two weeks I'll probably be in here all the time cos DH is off to Washington for work so I'll be a tad lonely I really wanted to go too but we couldn't get Finn and I on the same flights and I wasn't keen on flying with Finn by myself so we're staying put. I have asked him to look at the new Bugaboo Donkey!! Not that we need one yet but still!

Grub so did not do housework that does not even enter my thought patterns. Nope I made phone calls in peace, played on the computer and just did nothing. Was lovely.

We have some sad news, Campbell did not get into the private school we had hope he would get into even though he was only 3 weeks old when we put his name down. But we have decided that it is not such a bad thing because the fees are over 5k so that would be more then 10k when Xavier gets there. He is just going to continue coming to school with me. We will prob move him to the local primary school when Xavier is at Kindy. On the up side it does mean that there will be no more daycare fees for him after this year. Yay

Hey Saph bummer about the school for Campbell, but my sister who lives in WA (not too far from you I think) put my niece into the local primary school while my older nephew was going to high school at the local private school, she then transferred her across when my nephew got older and was a couple of years from leaving school to make sure that she got a place due to having a sibling already at the school.

I know she thought the cost was a waste of money when my niece was little but it is all about having that placement instead of going on a waiting list. Are you still able to place Campbell on a waiting list for future years to see if anything becomes available or are you just going to now look at seeing if the boys can go there for high school instead (scary thinking of high school when they are still babies).

Kelly, We are looking into other private schools for high school, we will leave him on the list for High school but it is about $3000 more then the other private schools iin the area. It just happens to be aqccross the road. We are not looking for primary school, he is just going to keep coming to school with me for the next few years. gotta go need to take 'Campbell to kiondy lol

Sheesh, must be hard to get into that school Saph if you've had his name down for years already and still couldn't get in!!

Hope everyone is well xx
