Just posting so i dont lose it... off to take Declan to hospital, he's stopped all intake of fluids, and on a 40*C day thats not good (he hasnt had anything to drink for a while)
Simone- i hope Declan gets better soon, it was so hot here today, though i can feel a cool change coming soon.
I got Charlotte weighed yesterday and she is 5.760kgs and 60.5cms long, she still is so small, she ended up having her needles today and she did not like it, and has been grumpy for most of the day, i don't think the heat helped, but she is in bed now. She still fits into her bassent she is wrapped so i think she will be in there for a while yet.
Simone~ hope u went alright with declan!!!! it was a very hot day today!
Kelly~ charlotte isnt that small she is bigger than lucy! Im sure she is just the right size!!! I love ur ticker piccy she is adorable!!!
Well today was TOO hot for us canberians!!!! lucky we get a dry heat so it is much more bearble than most places ive been to. the house was great up until bout 1pm then it got to 31 degrees cause we get the whole afternoon sun but we are getting evaporative cooling soon which will be awesome it works So well in canberra cause of the dry heat!Lucy was miserable today hot and cranky! although Ive just wrapped her up and now she is fine! its too hot for her to be wrapped but she seems happy! Im gonna go to spotlight tomoro and grab some sort of thiner muslin material I hope they have some...
Best be off SO tired... Ooo I feel like a bad mum yesturday morning danny woke up to lucy and I slept through! Ive NEVER done that before!!! O and she is sleeping by herself through the nights which is awesome!!!! but I felt like a bad mum cause I didnt wake up to my wee buba...
(((wave))) dd, sammi, dannik, natalie, sarah+ amy and everyone else I forgot!
Leah~ Don't feel like a bad mumma for not waking. You were obviously very tired and needed the sleep. I'm sure when she got a little louder you would have woken.
Dont worry Leah, there's been sometimes when i know Anneliese is crying, but i think im dreaming, and so i go back to sleep. then ill wake up like 15 mins later and she IS crying. Dont worry, at least danny got up. DH sleeps thru the kids all the time, without fail, has never woken up to ANY of them, EVER!!
WOW it sure has been quiet in here today!
William and I have been out shopping most of the day, sorry Simone I haven't been here to watch DHousewives with you!
We have such a busy weekend coming up so I needed lots of new clothes! We have DH work xmas party friday night, 30th sat night and DH work lunch sunday! The 30th is a fancy dress, theme is day at the races. I am just wearing the same outfit I bought for the races last weekend. I have talked DH into coming as a chick! I got him an ugly blonde wig and a facinator today. I can't wait to do the makeup!! LOL. SO FUN!

Well I thought I had better get on and say a quick hello as I have a busy day today. William and I are going to meet up with some girls from the PAML forum. Can't wait I haven't seen them since I have had William and they are dying to see him. Then it's home to work until about 930
Lucas is doing really well, I do think I have a good little boy on my hands!! he normally sleeps when he's meant to sleep, etc, so I shouldn't complain!!!
Nat - great to hear from you!! had a look at your site and it all looks great, do hope the business goes well :-)
Simone - sorry to hear about Declan, how is he doing?
Sarah - he he, how funny that you'll get to put make-up on your DH!!! sounds like you've got a good weekend ahead of you.......
Leah - how is Lucy this morning? a little more settled I hope.
