    Hiya girls,

    Well we have had a pretty good few days. Lil's still pretty snotty, but I think it's the last of it. She's been sleeping better, usually only one or two wakes a night (yay!) and 6.30-7.30 mornings. She's been pretty clingy to me though and very snuggly, I think because of the foul weather here in Sydney for the past week or so. We have been cooped up inside for days together and I am soo unmotivated to do anything other than sit on the floor and play with her, so needless to say the house is a pigsty...no really it's disgusting! I haven't washed for over a week and my laundry is bursting at the seams! But the rain has been constant and my dryer died months ago. I will have to take some to mums cause I have one pair of undies left and Lil has no singlets, she's been wearing tshirts for a few days, LOL! At least it's been cold enough to do it! And my kitchen, oh my poor kitchen...I have the leaning tower of washing and the sink top and bench next to it are full to overflowing of washed dishes that I haven't been bothered to pack away. I have two baskets of folded clothes in the baby's cradle in my room to pack away....ugh!!! So much to do. THe only things that have been kept clean properly are the toilets, dining table and kitchen benches (other than the one with all of the dishes stacked on top of it!). I have been sooo lazy.
    Lucky today I'm having a sickie! Well not really I did have the migrane of the century last night (the first for this pg, wooohoooo!) and didn't sleep so well. I woke up with it this morning too, but after calling in sick to work, taking Lil to mums (I didn't tell her I'm not going to work- norty I know!!) and downing some panadol and a big glass of water, I feel surprisingly good! Maybe I just needed a me day . Our car broke down yesrteday so I couldn't go to work yesterday either. They must think I'm such a slacker, although I don't really care what they think of me. Things just seem to happen on a Thursday and Friday here, the days I work, LOL! Oh well...Car still isn't fixed and it might be a while until we can afford to fix it, which sucks. Though really we don't need it, it just makes life with a toddler and humongous belly so much easier!

    Kaz, I hope you're having a good day and feeling a bit better. How did your job interview go? (hehe I read your other thread )

    Dis, I know how scary bleeding in pg can be. I'm glad to hear things are ok though. I hope you're taking it easy!
    Lil runs everywhere too, walking just isn't quick enough. And she's quick!! You should see her run when she gets her hands on the tv remote, she's so funny!!

    Jen, I hope B's bum is better. 5.30 wake ups suck. We had a few last week here too. I just sleep when she does if that happens. I forget everything else.
    Sorry to hear about your house. I hope there's movement soon!
    Sounds like fun decorating some elses house! They spend the money but you get to say what goes where!! Hope you had a good time

    Anyway I should go and do the doemstic thing, god knows this place needs it!!! Happy Friday all.

    Hi ya
    Another 5:30 wake up day here and he has just woken up from a 45min nap - woken by a power saw and the d+++head that lives over the road's car!!! DH came home for lunch when Beau stirred and I nearly teared up! I just dont feel like a get a decent break!!!
    Kel I hear you on the no - dryer thing - unfortunately with the house on the market I have to try and get the stuipid stuff dry in between veiwings - It took me a week of moving the towels every few hours to get them dry and when I came back from shopping last night DH had let Beau pull them into the bath!!!!!!Grrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!I nearly cried a that too! I think I have PG hormones aswell! Glad to hear Lil is sleeping better too - thats good you have a had a me day, good on you! Dont worry about your mum, thats what they are for!! Good luck with the dishes yuck!
    Dis - Ben sounds like a little charmer like Beau - I was resting my head on the bed last night and he came in and climbed on me and landed a big kiss on my mouth - such a cutie! Your mum was lovely to let you go to bed early, Ben must have wanted to hang with Grandma.
    I have to work all weekend doing up a showroom so DH has Beau and has to clean tomorrow morning for the open house - he gets to be me for 48hrs! Yipee!

    Hey all,

    Having a cleaning day at my house, but cant be stuffed doing the mopping! I have loads of washing on the line too and its so cold, nothings drying. I had to wash our sheets this morning coz I popped Olivia in bed with us at 6am with a bottle, thinking she would go back to sleep..nope she didnt, but she did a huge wet burp and had a bit of a chunder on the sheets,,yuck, it just gets stinkier!!!
    Shes at day care now..is that bad of me to keep her there when I am not working?? I think she really enjoys it with the other kids. It also gives me time to do housework and bookwork and shopping..and at the moment we can afford to keep her going. From July we will cut back her hours.

    DH is going away tomorrow til Monday.another boys weekend 4wd'ing!I want my weekend away!!! I suppose my time off is while she is at daycare, so I shouldnt complain. Plus I get to catch up with all my girlfriends this weekend without having to worry about him!!

    Mel- glad youre getting some rest. Arent they cute, thats georgeous Ben did that to his dads tummy. Pregnancy hormones and tiredness suck!!!

    Kel-glad youre having a you day. And also glad Lil is sleeping a bit better for you. Wish I could come help you clean...I'm a bit of a clean freak (my dads genes!), I get really funny if the house is untidy, although in saying that, I wouldnt eat off my floors! I was just looking at your ticker...you havent got long left. Yay, how exciting. Has bubs turned for you yet?

    Jen- yuck on those early mornings. And if my DH let bubs put the towel in the bath, I wouldnt know what to do first, cry or slap him!!! How frustrating. Enjoy having a break this weekend, even though you are working.

    Hello to Kristie, Erin and everyone else

    Congrats on the job Kaz.

    I had some bleeding today, so went to ed. I have a scan tomorrow to make sure its all ok. DH is away, so am a bit nervous. It was really hard taking Olivia to the hospital and waiting for 4 hours. I couldnt get anyone to look after her. So am going to organise someone for the morning. I feel alright, just have some lower back pain. HOPEFULLY BUBS IS OK. I think its fine, just want to be on the safe side.

    Chat tomorrow and let you know
