KEL _ I don't know if you remember but Jessica had gastro in NOvember & the only think I could entice her to eat again was those cheese & bacon balls & claudia just about does a cartwheel to get some. So I am a bad mummy too! The kids absolutely love those & they love the Chicken Crimpy's as well. I was thinking about you today when I was giving Claudia her lunch, she is loving Macaroni Cheese. I know that Jem is a fussy pants with her food, so maybe the macaroni cheese is something to try? I love 'themes' for birthday parties, Jessica's first birthday party was a butterfly theme. Butterfly invites, butterfly balloons, all the kids were asked to wear butterfly wings, butterfly birthday cake. Butterfly lolly bags. I loved it! But I've no clue what to do for Claudia's first birthday. Carebears is cute! I love the carebears. Jessica is getting into carebears atm. I'm going to check e-bay for some 1st birthday invites, because I"m thinking of just doing everything 1st birthday, like invites, balloons, cake in the shape of a 1, napkins, plates, etc... I've got to check that ebay woman to see if she has a clip that will match claudia's fairy dress.

RYN _ I was going to suggest to you are you happy going back to that church when they told you Liebs wasn't welcome at the church anymore unless he went to the creche. Do you go to Church every day? I'm not a religious person at all, but I don't think it's very christian like to shun a family member like that.

KRISTY _ I'd love to catch up too! Where abouts in Armadale are you? Far off the Freeway? I only know Armadale Road. I used to know Forrestfield a bit, but that was a little while ago. Oh wow with the OPK's!! I guess you can't be sure, I think it's great that you're TTC again! BTW Erin looks so much older in that ticker pic than what she is!

ME _ Well nothing new to report here, been out a lot today. Went to visit a friend today, then over to my sisters after lunch. Her little boy - 6m is having some sleep issues & my sister had the CHN coming out for a chat & my sister wanted me there for moral support. The nurse wasn't much help, but was nice for the kids to play. Claudia had a ball as usual. Both kids were very well behaved. My niece was a total ratbag! Was nice to see another child get into trouble for once, as it's usually always Jessica doing wrong! I've been riding every morning with the kids in the caravan behind the bike. It's been great & I feel more energetic. Went to the beach for a few hours on Sunday too & had a big walk so I'm getting moving & I'm hoping the kg's start to fall off!
