    How exciting Mel!!! Well, hopefully anyway. Just two more days until you are 'full term' and bub won't be required to go into NICU - do they still do that if they come before 37 wks? Even if they're healthy?

    I can't believe you and Kris are 'there' already! I'm a bit jealous, but I'm not entirely ready yet mentally and nowhere near ready practically - with bedrooms and stuff sorted. Of course Twobob still has quite a way to go yet!

    Hi!

    Disgirl - Good for you having the day off yesterday and enjoying some time out! Yeah at getting yourself some pressies as well! Yeah...it's not good when you actually start adding the purchases up...best not to think about it really! LOL!
    Yeah at Bens new words! Dylans coming out with new stuff everyday as well! No naughty words just yet though...I think they watch too many tv shows/movies though as most of his words now are characters - dora, diego, boots, and then from ice age manny, elly and diego...gosh..what an awful mum I am...LOL!
    With babies in nicu I'm not sure but I know with Louis if he was under 2.5kg he would have had to go in even though he was born at 38w...Luckily he was 2.67 so was ok...

    Kel - Oh no at Olivia saying crap...we only had one stage where Louis said s**t for a while and then we didn't make a fuss so he stopped luckily...I'm hoping to avoid it with Dylan as well!

    Mel - Wow at being engaged already!! I hope bubs arrives soonish since your having so many aches and pains...

    As for me...just had my new housecleaner out to look at the house - she's going to start next Thursday - woohoo! Such a luxury but I think I deserve it - LOL!!!!
    I had pains all day yesterday and am achy today rather than full painful bh...I'm just hoping all the pre-labour means a nice straightforward labour soonish...it's always strange at this end of p/g cos you just have no idea when it's all going to happen!!! I'm getting excited to meet my new little man though...and a bit anxious as well as I know how much work it's going to be - LOL!

    Chat later!

    Kris, yay for you getting a house-cleaner! I've often dreamt of having one - maybe after #3 is here we'll splurge for at least a while. Did you find him/her on recommendations? Just curious since I REALLY would love to do it one day

    Yeah...Cindy met her through a tupperware party I think and passed on her details to me! She seems really nice so we'll see how it all goes! I'm paying her cash in hand $60 for 3 hours just once a f/n at this stage...

    Did someone say.....HOUSE CLEANER????!!!!!

    Well while i convienced dh to help me clean the house on Sunday and he was scrubbing toilets and I was cleaning the bath, I said to him how terrible I am with dusting and doing things like the bathroom and mirrors. He agreed it was a yucky job and would definately consider a house cleaner.....let me know how she goes kris and I might have to get her number off you...Oh yay. The other thing I am bad at is getting the satins out of Olivias clothes....mum says soak them in borax....I use nappy san but it just doesnt work. Any tips. Shes got some really nice clothes with some really bad grotty stains.... actually might be good reason to go do some clothes shopping!!!!

    Mel- 11 weeks aint far away!!! Gosh I cant believe how quick its gone. I remember it wasnt long ago Kel broke her news....then Kris, me then you!!!! Jen....where are you!!!! lol Have fun sorting out bedrooms and clothes.

    Well we have Olivias hip appointment in the morning. I had her xray done and she cried her little eyes out coz I had to leave the room and 2 strangers were holding her down. THankfully it didnt take too long.

    I'm so tired but cant go to sleep coz I have to wake her up...chat soon

    Hi!

    Mel - Yeah at dh thinking it would be a great idea - thats usually half the battle! LOL! Oh yeah...the boys have stains too...nothing too bad but it's always the tomato saucey/red food stains that I have trouble with...
    Good luck with Olivias appt tomorrow! That must have been awful when she was having the xray..poor little thing...

    Haven't heard from Jen or Kaz for a while - Hope you guys are well!

    Nothing much from me today other than they've delivered my book order to my old address after I updated the details with them...not happy! It was about $280 worth of books that people had ordered from me...grrr...I hope they're at the old house...although it's not my error so
    TL should cover it I suppose...it's a bugger all the same though...never mind...
    Ooh and I've made yummy choc chip banana muffins...yum....!

    Chat later..

    Oh yum Kris, I want a muffin!!!
    Bugger about the books. I hate it when people stuff up like that. Hopefully you can track them down, but you shouldn't have to. What a pain.

    Mel, poor Liv It must have been hard for both of you during the xray When do you get the results?

    I'm at home today and tomorrow. Twobob is sitting on a nerve in my back and the doc gave me two days off! Woohoo, now I only have three weeks left and still have about two weeks of sick leave. This could be good The best part is, my back isn't even that bad anymore and I had a lovely 2hr nap this afternoon. Ben's still sleeping (going on 4 hrs!) so I guess I'd better wake him up soon otherwise he'll be up all night. The poor little guy cracked it when it was time for me to go into the doc surgery. He was happily playing in the waiting room, but when we went to go into the surgery we had full-blown tears, head-shaking and "noooooo!" I guess that last needle is still fresh in his mind.

    Mel, you say 11 weeks isn't that long and don't I know it! I still need to get EVERYTHING for this bub organised, I've done NOTHING. Not good considering I'm convinced I'm going to have him/her early!!!!
