Hi all, just a quick one from me too just to say hi and hope you are all well.
Lori - that's no good about the inlaws, how rude! Hope next xmas is a better one from you. I'm slowly learning to speak up and tell people it's my terms or not at all (when they're at my house etc) and it does get easier, I hope it gets better for you too.
Lauren - don't stress about work, you'll be fine and so will Ash!
Nic - glad to hear the kids are on the mend.
Well, better get going, hoping some time in the near future thins won't be as hectic as they are now!
Hi to anyone I missed, take care!
Just a quick hi to everyone,well we all had a great time on holidays,xmas came & went so quickly this year,lol, the kids had so much fun.
Kieren isn`t walking yet but stands by himself,so i suppose he will be off soon.
We are taking the kids to watch the early fire works tonight,not sure how they will go,though.
I hope everyone is well,& Happy New Year to all Families, Cheers.
Catch you all soon.
Ive been spending the last couple of nights deciding 2009 is going to be the year of NO MORE LIES!! i have typed out a letter to Robs parents with 6 pages of the last 2 years!! im posting it tomorrow so they will have it on monday!!! gees im crapping myself about there reaction, but feel great i can start the year based on honesty and moving forward. - Not that i have spoken to rob in 2 or so months!
Ohhh Lauren, hope it all goes well hun. And you know what? even if it doesn't atleast it is all out in the open, I can't believe that in all this time he still hasn't told them about Asher. They have missed out on getting to know one very special little boy too, even if he doesn't want to. Oh and if you have a stamp hun, post it now, before you second guess it
Sorry I have been MIA again. Christmas was like everyones, very hectic. Then we went away for a few days up the coast to see my DP's birth father. I will call him that because he's not much of a dad. LOL. Still trying to get Tehya into a Paed, but of course they are all closed for the xmas new year break.
Went out to the beach yesterday with the kids in the afternoon, was nice, I even got in the water! Got some gorgeous photos so will upload them soon to my FB page. Had some extra excitement on the way home, drove past a guy laying flat on his back on the footpath. I made DP go around the block cos we couldn't pull over and got out, there was a guy with him by now and he was calling the ambo's. I got him to loosen his tie and undo his top buttons and put him in the recovery pos. he was very incoheriant, not a sound was coming out of him but was clearly distressed. Apparently he worked at the local shops and was a "little slow" some guys pulled over and told us that. For what seemed and eternity the ambos turned up and then I left. Hope he is ok. My poor kids were not happy in the car, they were scared and worried. But I just could not keep on driving past and pretend I didn't see him.
Took your advise Trish - the letter is sitting right next to me, stamped and ready to post first thing in the morning!
How is tehya going? is her face still the same? poor chookie.
Ash walked today!! i was so excited i had tears in my eyes!! hes asleep atm but i cant wait till hes up and i hope he does it again so it wasnt a fluke LOL
i had a nice night last night.. Simon and SIl partner were working so SIL and I took the kids swimming at her place in the rain It was so hot here yesterday.. 38.7 and weather site said it felt like 44.. It was still 28.7 at 1am this morning
I stayed up will 1am.. I even had a couple drinkies played a board game.. Watched the fireworks rang a few people thn decided I better go to bed..
up early this morning.. Went to SIL for a swim before 9.. it was already 30c at 8. Its 37 now and horrendous outside.. Thank GOd for Aircon!!
Olivia is such fun now.. She LOVEs the water.. and we got Hungry Jacks for lunch today and walked in and the kids went to play on the playground and she was cracking it a little cus she wanted to go with them She looks way to tiny to be walking but gosh she can go..Almost has a run up happening these days.. Still has the odd tumble..
oh and poor darling fell over ontp my suitcases and now has a delightful scrape on her forehead..
Anyways.. Boys and I just all had an ice cream.. Olivia asleep on the couch.. Really need to gt Ac for the bedrooms.. and now we are watching a movie
Lauren: Well done.. I am sure it will be a shock for them but in the long run it will be good.. He is thier grandson and I am sure they will want to know him..
Trish: hope Tehya is doing ok.. Is there anyone who specialises in it down that way? Maybe ring one of the major hospitals and see what they can do
Nic, DP wants to take her to the childrens hosp, but tbh I think it's not really worth it. Not like there is anything they can do for her. I guess it's just him feeling helpless, although he is one to run kids to the Dr's if they fart sidewards! Thankfully for them I'm not the same.
Am hearing you on the heat. It's a stinker down here today. We went for a drive earlier, when we got back to the car and turned the air on it said the outside temp was 41! I'd believe it too.
Lauren, whats the worse that can happen hun. They don't talk to you or Ash ? they are already doing that. WooHoo for Ash taking a few steps too. Abbey finally started on either boxing day or xmas night. Can't remember which one.
Thanks for asking about Tehya girls. She is doing OK, no better, but no worse either. So I guess that's something. She's not distressed about it at all thankfully. Guess it's a good thing that she is younger. I'd be hiding inside the house. If you were to look at her just sitting there you prob wouldn't notice it. Not until she talks or goes to smile etc. Although if you are looking at her eyes you will notice. She has issues blinking, her eye rolls backwards but it doesn't really shut properly.
As I said above, Abbey has started walking a few steps here and there. Mostly crawling still though.
Annnnnnd I got THE best Christmas present from her. She finally said MUM MUM, it was on Christmas night, of course there was no one here to hear it. I was so damn excited. She is saying it more now too. Finally others have heard her and believe me now. All my other kids said mum as either their first or second word. Abbey's been dragging it out. Talk about keeping me in suspence!!
Well our Air con isn`t working,kids are mucking up,got a great headache,DH is peeded off big time. So we have started the New Year off so fantastically well.
To hot & bothered to do personals,but all the best to everyone. I wish i was still on bloody holiday!!....
ugh Susan no ac would just about kil me off this week I think
Trish: yay on the mum and steps..
olivia is a little clingy grumpy this afternoon. boobing now but I so hope she doesnt go to sleep *sigh* its a bit early..
oh oh oh. soooo cute.. we brought the kids table into the lounge to eat dinner cus it was simply to hot where it was and while we were bringing the chairs in Olivia decided thats where she was eating so she sat up at the table with the boys.. just adorable.
Happy New Year...DH and I went out to dinner by ourselves!!!!! My Dad took both girls for the night. It was Loren's first night away from mummy and she was a champ. Me however could not sleep and wanted to go and get her at 6am this morning.
Too hot for words here. The heat is really getting to me and I feel sick all the time, and dizzy. I am 12wks today!!! My scan is on Tuesday, please cross your fingers for us.
Lauren - Good on you for sending the letter. You are such a strong woman. Yey on Ash walking.
Trish - Get better vibes for Tehya. Yey on Abbey saying Mummy!!! Loren still doesn't say it..She is saying Sa for Sara though.
Susan-Yuk on not having air..I would die and my DH would be very cranky too.
