Hello ladies! Wow, I'm going to have to check here more regularly - you're even faster than the 9 - 12 month girls!
I have to very quick because I'm on a 'study break'...
mitch - only one day to go until you visit! It's been lovely weather here, but a little bit windy at times (it is Ekka time, after all!), so maybe throw in a couple of jumpers. Hopefully it's nice for our little get together. I certainly CAN make it tomorrow, but I will probably only be able to stay for about an hour - I have a rehearsal tomorrow night so I have to be home in time to help get Charlie ready for bed and get ready myself (it's sad when a band rehearsal becomes a social outing! The singer has 2 kids, so we both get so excited when we get to rehearse...). I have your mobile number, so I'll sms you if there's any problems. I'll sms you my number and maybe you could text me when you get there with an exact location. I'm really looking forward to it!
Christy - sorry to hear about the situation with your Mum. Where does she live? I hope that she continues to NOT say negative things. It's really hard when mothers do that - I think the thing is to realise that the reason she's doing it is probably because she has insecurities of her own that she needs to deal with. (Of course, I'm saying this without actually knowing you, so tell me to shut up if I'm being inappropriate.) A friend of mine is having similar problems with her mum, eg. she has lost a lot of weight recently and her mum hasn't said anything to her about it even though she's lost more than 10 kg! It's because her mum has her own weight issues... she's the same with issues about the kids. I hope that things improve for you, and if not, you can have a good whinge about it tomorrow!
Ambah - sorry to hear that you and Angus aren't feeling well. This flu really is doing the rounds this year, isn't it? It seems everyone I know has it. Glad to hear that you're both starting to get better.
Kathryn - Poor Lachlan hurting his lip! Glad to hear he's ok.
MistyFying - You and poor Gabrielle! You must have both had such a fright. Glad to hear that her skull wasn't cracked, and I hope that you were able to have a nice time away regardless. There must be something in the water - our bubs are all hurting themselves atm!
Jillian - sorry, I can't help you there. Charlie has only in the last couple of months started to be defiant too, but he's a bit young for time out, so I'm at a loss as well! I hope the other gals have some suggestions for you.
So much for my "short" post! I'd better go otherwise I won't get anything done.
See you tomorrow mitch, christy and ambah! Should be fun.
