    Hi Everyone,

    Hope you are all going well, For all of you down in Victoria and Adelaide, I'm trying my best to send some of our crappy weather to you (meaning that in the nicest possible way) It's been raining in QLD still warm but it cools things down for a bit. So hopefully my wishful thinking pays off and you guys get some relief soon

    Nice to "meet" you CookieMonster, congrats on your acceptance, Correspondance does sound like a good idea if your able too??

    2 Please hope you have a great time this weekend for your trip to the Great Ocean Road. I've never been to Victoria but that sounds like a really nice place to visit! Have Fun. Have to say I agree with you 100% in that I struggle to leave Zane with anyone. I've only had my parents mind him so far and that was hard enough, I think that it's the safest way to be though, I know you can't let the horror stories stop you from living your life and I'll do my Very best not to pass my fears onto Zane but I don't think it hurts to err on the side of caution with your kids, you only get one shot at making it right. Hope Tara had a great time in Kindy!!

    OMG Prama you poor thing! I know you probably won't be able to read this right now, but I hope your not in your pirate patch for too long! I'm not sure what "depth perception" is (was that really blonde of me to say that??)but hopefully there is no long term damage.

    Zane took 6 steps yesterday 6! WooooHooooo!!! He had only been doing 1 or 2 and then pow off he went I'm so proud of my little Munchkin Man!! Not sure if was a fluke because did that in the morning and was back to doing about 3 by the afternoon!

    Well Best be off my house looks like a bomb has hit it, I was tired last night I lounged instead of tidying. Have a great day all and a Fabulous weekend

    hey everyone,

    prama - hope your eye heals nice and quickly - will be laughing about it in no time!

    love the card idea but i am going to have to ask a stupid question - how do i PM and what is it..??

    bronzedbebe - theres no stopping the little monkey now, baxters crawling days seem soo long ago already, everything is done at a gallop now!

    as for that father, i feel very nuch for the poor mother, and the siblings that witnessed it in the car - that kind of thing will "scar"... thoughts are with them.

    anyway, have to run

    whoops - hi everyone else

    Firstly I am not going to comment on the little girl - I have written in the thread (second last page) in the news section, so I don't want to say anymore here.

    WRT the card exchange, basically it means everyone can send a card to everyone - some of the early Feb bubbas may get them late, but I thought it would still be fun to do!

    Kato - PM is private message, but you won't be able to do it yet - i think you need 25 posts before you can PM and be PM'd. If you like you can email me instead - ashleajaynesewell @ hotmail.com

    WTG Zane!! Alex has been taking a lot of steps but won't let go and do it on his own. In his own time I guess.

    Prama, so sorry to hear about your eye, really hope it heals quickly!

    GTG for now xxoo

    Its goint to be 45 deg today in Bendigo, and Im battering down the hatches now. Last night the power turned off from 9pm-1am. Poor DS and DD freaked whenthe air con turned back on with the change of temp.

    Cookie, I hate talking about Darby too. My hubby was dropping tears when watching the news. His 35 and DD is 4.

    Prama. TARA DID THE SAME TO ME TOO. I was in the RACV paying for rego when Tara swang for my face. Her sharp nail hit my eye, and I later found out it ulcerated. I had a patch for a week, and found that it took 2 years before I could touch it without it itching a tearing. Steve would say, "Are you crying again"? ( Isnt that wierd how much the same has happened in our first pregnancys). You and I went through depression, bubs scratching our eye and having a hubby called Steve.lol.

    Kato, A PM is a private message. I think you click the persons name in the thread and it comes up with a page of all their info. Just look for PM in there.
    Just click on 2 please on this post and it should come up.

    Hi to everyone else.

    Enjoy your weekend

    lol - karlie! how strange is taht!!!! i hope i get a girl next.. hehe

    thanks girls, i went to get my eye checked yesterday evening and it's almost all healed. im still on anti-biotics, and my patch is gone. thank god.
    karlie, tara must have hit your with much more force.. a patch for a week, that must have hurt so much. it's terrible isnt it.. like needles in your eye.
    i had the same pain when i had laser surgery done in my eyes. i had been wearing glasses since i was 7, now i dont anymore.


    tomorrow's feb!! has jasper got the first birthday here?

    I think the worst part was rubbing your eye, and finding it hard to stop. It was so easily set off just by bumping it . When it happened I couldnt open my eye at all, and got headaches in bright light. With in 3 hours I couldnt leave my bedroom with the blinds down, and had a damp fashwasher on my eye.

    glad to hear Zane is ok! - noy looking forward to DS first major owie - though he did burn his little fingers on the oven this morn... poor little bugger!
    cookiemonster - i have emailed you for the card exchange, guess i will just have to keep posting to get to PM eventually!

    anyone had any probs with their littlies and blister on their feet? since DS has been walking he keeps getting blisters under his big toe.? i don't know if it is coz he is gripping with his toes, or he has just inherited my genes (i blister all the time!)...

    good luck with everyones plans for 1st birthdays - we are just having a fam bbq at a park - no mess at my place thank We got baxter a CAT bulldozer thing with mega blocks in the back and some crayola tadoodles. he got spoilt rotten at xmas, so not too much.

    have a great weekend, we're off to bunnings, am trying to convince DH to renovate my kitchen!!

    Hi all!

    Hear you on the heat! It has been 40+ here for quite a few days now. Yesterday 43 and today feels the same. Had to go to a christening today; was really nice, but the airconditioning in the church wasn't doing much, so was very hot. Jasper did really well considering he missed out on his morning sleep; he just loved looking at all the people and the other bubs. He just went to sleep at 1 pm without too much drama, so I think we are ready to tackle the occasional playgroup session. How did Catherine go Bun? Did you girls make some new friends?

    Kato - Baxter is such a cutie!! They are really starting to look more like little kids and less like babies, aren't they? How are his little fingers; hopefully no blisters? Jasper isn't walking yet, so don't have any experience with blisters yet.

    Bronzdbebe - That must have been sooo scary!! I am still waiting for the first big fall, but I don't think it is too far away... Is Zane ok now? We bought Jasper a Thomas the tank engine push/ride on train and a wiggles CD/DVD, so not going too crazy either.

    Prama - I think Jasper is the first to turn 1... Catherine is second (day after Jasper) not sure how we go after that... I remember looking at the ticker when I first put it in my signature and thinking it was such a long time to go to 12 months, but hasn't it gone fast...

    Karlie - how did you cope with 45 degrees? Hopefully no more blackouts for you!!!

    Hi to everyone else!

    Hello Feb mummies! Special hello to Bun, Prama and Jenjams. Happy birthday soon to all your bubba's.

    Kato - I have a Baxter too! He's a little younger than yours, almost 10 months. I just wanted to comment on his name, we haven't met another Baxter before! We are in Perth too.

    Sorry to crash your thread, I wanted to PM Kato but she doesn't have PM yet.
