Hellllllooooooo everyone, I have all good intentions to keep up with this thread LOL I'm not doing a very good job of it. I've just tried to read back on old posts & can't remember what I read. Even after begging DH to get me a laptop I'm still lagging behind....oh well.
Hope you are all well & those with bubs on the way are feeling super!!!
Welcome to those newbie whom I have not yet said Hello to.
I hope bubs are sleeping well & being good (we at least some of the time he,he).
I'm now working 3days a week, so trying to keep up with everything. Though last week & this week its 4days. Charlie has finally settled into daycare & does not cry when I drop him off YAY. I feel much better about that now. DH is in America for almost 3weeks!!! It's only day 2 & I'm already wondering how I will cope. Charlie has still been up & down sick so have spent many weekends etc just holding him to poor little thing. He now officially has all teeth but 2yo molars so I hope that's going to make a difference...he's cut teeth every month for what seems like a lifetime. Sleeping is getting better here, only one wake up. Think that's got something to do with a new heater & not being so sick anymore. Anywho...that's really all from us. Nothing new & exciting. Charlie plays really well with other kids now...I was most impressed at a friends yesterday I actually got to relax.
Bye for now...I will try to keep up with this thread. Hope everyone is having a good weekend.
Hi All,
Just got back from a weekend away up at mums in the mountains and wanted to say "hi" just wizzed thru the posts to make sure everyone is ok.
Hi Alyce - welcome!
I will do personals later as Beau is cranky so gotsta fly!

We've had a great day visiting a friend at her place in the country (well about 45min away but they live on acreage) The kids had a ball splashing in puddles with their gumboots (sooo filthy!) and playing with the chickens and getting all dirty and muddy!
They both fell asleep in the car on the way home and I Louis is still asleep on the couch!
Had one scare as Dylan was dropping little grapefruits into a a big tub of water in their vegie garden and then because he couldn't reach nearly tipped himself straight in - geez - we were standing right there so he only got his arms in and I grabbed his head but it was sooo cold and rainy. You can see how quickly accidents can happen around water thats for sure! Gosh this little muchkin is going to turn my hair grey - LOL!
Erin - Wow at dh being away for 3 weeks! I'm sure you'll be fine but I can understand how tough it will be! Sorry to hear Charlie still has his sick moments but sounds like things are on the improve which is great. It's nice to see them playing nicely with kids isn't it? Don't stress about keeping up on here - you sound very busy with work and being at home alone at the moment!
Jen - Hope you had a great weekend! How's the house selling going? We had another open for inspection yesterday with only 2 people through! GRRR - however 1 of them came back for a second inspection in the arvo and grabbed a section 32 so hopefully they may put in an offer - but not holding my breath!!
Morning girls,
Hope you all had a great weekend. Hey erin, glad things are getting better with Charlie. Hopefully it will settle now he has all his teeth. Hows things with you and your new place??? I suppose its not new anymore, seeing you made the move a while back!!!
Jen and Kristie, hope your places sell soon. It must be a bugger to have opens all the time. We were renting this house and it was on the market and had opens all the time...no one was buying, so we put in an offer and got it!!!! And we're still here
Us- we had a good weekend. I got to go out on Saturday morning with the girls from mums group, baby free, to the pancake parlour. It was nice having a few hours break. Olivia pooed in the bath last night..hehe,and slept pretty well. Shes grizzly this morning though, just that continual grunting and wanting to be picked up. So on that note, I'd better go. Have a great day
