Sorry I`ve been AWOL, just been busy with all 4 boys and school holidays.
The boys are well, Adrian has cut one tooth and his second is on it`s way, he said his first word last week "Mum".
Matthew is doing well, went to GYmbaroo today which was the first day back after the break and he really enjoyed it but I also noticed how different he is on the equipment now to what he was last term, growing up and doing different things.
Matthew is also teething, he has his first 2 year old molar so that`s tooth number 17 for him and he`s pointing down the other side saying ouch, his gum is bumpy so that`s obviously on its way too.
Matthew is turning into such a kissy, cuddly boy lately, except with Daddy he will not give Daddy a kiss, just goes all coy.
It`s our 3rd wedding anniversary today and 4 years since we first met, Mark forgot, I`m trying to talk him into taking me out to dinner, I can only try but I think it will fall on deaf ears as usual.
Sorry no personals, just too much to reply to and with a squirming drooling baby on my lap it`s making things hard, yes I could put him on the floor but he`s going through a screaming phase and being frustrated over things
Oooh Fi taking a risk When are you thinking of TTC again? Mark has been at me the last few days wanting to know if my body is in action yet or not LOL @ Jenna with wanting to talk to horses on the farm, she`d be in her glory here, just yesterday a neighbours daughter across the road was riding her horse, Matthew got so excited.... Mum, Mum, Mum pointing at the horse so cute but then he gets excited seeing cows, horses, cars, trucks, tractors all the time, just can`t get enough of them. Hope your feeling more awake tonight or should I say tomorrow, glad you had a good night in the end.
Sarah - Bugger about the rails, how did you get on at Babies Galore?
Tanya - LOL @ Emily, too cute
Melanie - Glad you had a great trip away
Belinda - I think Angel is about 33 weeks or so, Lesley is about 39 weeks (only know that as I saw a post from her the other day) and I forgot about Min, she`s about 20 weeks along. Do you know what happened to Rails? I haven`t seen her post since we merged and Juliette has been missing for a while.
I have just made a jelly slice, I`ve never made it before, I hope it turns out okay.
Went to Target yesterday, I brought lots of bargains yesterday in the way of clothes for myself, for once they had a pile of 8`s and 10`s yay!!!! The day before I brought myself a new maternity bra, I was well overdue as I haven`t brought a new one since Matthew was about 4 months, it would be so nice one day to go out and buy an underwire bra.
I find it very hard to keep up in here, and I feel bad for not posting personals so I don't post...
Anyway, all is well here. Girls are doind ok. Had some issues over the passed couple of days with Alecia... but that's just normal teenage stuff.
Violet is doing well. I wen't to the train station to drop Alecia off because she was going to see one of her friends and a man came up to me and pointed at Violet and said, "she's gorgeous isn't she?"
To which I replyed..."they all are!"
He said,"yeah they are, but she is just stunning!!".... LOL, bit of a weirdo tho!!
Check out Alecis page here . She is really turnong into a woman... scary!! LOL
Emily cam into me while I was getting dressind int he bathroom the other day. She had hold of a spider by the leg telling me it was dead. She then dropped it and it took off. I said, "it's not dead".
She picked it up again and said< "it's got a picture on it". So i took a closer look while it was crawing up her arm and it was a red back!! I swiftly made sure the lizard made a snack of her!!
My gosh Tanya!! Alecia certainly does look like a young woman! Great photos of her! She looks so much like you in some of them.
TOTALLY freaking about the redback!! I would have screamed to high heaven!! LOL Lucky Em has a Mum that takes those sorta creatures in her stride. How on earth did she manage to not get bitten??
Ewww @ that creepy guy at the train station. Did you keep Violet well and truely in your grip after that?? LOL What a strange thing to say...
Tanya :eek: at the spider!! Sometimes wish they were just a little more scared of things... And Alecia is beautiful.My sister is a 91 bub and has the same anline talk, and similar webapge will have to find itout... When she was a bridesmaid at my wedding, all XH's mates were cracking onto her, thinking she was 19... she's just turned 13 OMG!!
oohh at the spider too! I would have freaked for sure!
I"m so tired today after Tom's 2am waking and Jack starting the day at 4:30 (I think it was the heat). Tom has been unsettled still but has had some good sleeps in between. Poor Jack is really missing DH. He has been saying "kiss daddy" all day and sometimes nearly crying when he says it. It's quite heartbreaking actually. Thank goodness Glenn gets back tomorrow. Tonight was the worst - I rang DH for him to say goodnight to Jack as he was expecting, and he was in bed asleep after drinking too much today. The receptionist told me. So I had to tell poor Jack who had been looking forward to talking to daddy all day that he couldn't talk to daddy after all. I am really peed off (Jack repeats everything he hears so I try not to even think swear words now LOL).
Oh well, at least I get him home tomorrow. I'm not sure Trish who has missed him more LOL, but it has definitely been harder for Jack. Although today hasn't been the best day for me. Bring on tomorrow afternoon!
Well i am back again, just letting you know i am still about

Weekend here was good besides Mason teething overnight on Friday night, felt so bad as he was in so much pain but i had given him everything i could, in the end i was feeding him icecream at 2am to help ease his mouth, so glad a wiggles marathon was on that night! kept his mind off it for awhile at least
Back to school tommorow and Mason has his second day at daycare, hoping he goes as well as the first time, we shall see, he probably wont because i will be rushing to get luke to his first day at his new school, kids sense these things and wreck it all lol
Hi hi hi! Just wanted to le you guys know I haven't actually fallen off the face of the planet LOL! Still trying to catch up after being without a computer for three weeks!
Daddy is back at work for the first day since the 15th of December, so I think it'll be a loooong day without him here. Alexzander is such a daddy's boy at the moment so I'm little worried!
He's been going really well lately - absolutely in love with the pool which is scary cos he wants to jump right in even if you're not watching properly LOL! His speech has come a long way in the past few weeks & I can understand *most* of what he says. Sentences too :eek: He'll be going into his new room probably next week, just have to wait for his blinds to arrive. There are photos on his site of his new room & some others from the holiday as well if anyone's interested.
Hey girls, Belinda you are right, it has been so quiet in here. What happened to our chatty group.
Wow at Luke starting school this week. How are you handling it ? I hope he goes off smoothly for you and that Mason is a good boy for you when you drop him off at daycare, I'm not sure how Luke was when he went but I know that Noah only started the tears up a few weeks into it. Hoping this isn't the case for you.
Simone, weather has cooled down alittle, thank God. Still quiet hot in the sun though. Too damn hot to go car shopping though which is what we've been up to.
Deb, how are you and Gab going ? Hopefully all is well with you 2 chickens.
Melanie, hope you have a great holiday hun. Make sure you take care.
We have had a busy few days. Friday we had a memorial lunch down at Mark's SIL's house for Marks brother. He died 1 year ago on the day after Australia Day. Complete with 3 Buddhist Monk's. It was a very interesting thing to experience. A bittersweet day, one of the families friend's son's got up and sung a couple of songs and had everyone in tears. It was also SIL's 30th bday on the day.
Went car shooping on Saturday and then left Mark to do what he wanted to do by himself, he went out to the club with a mate, had a few drinks and bets. Finally he won a few too. Must have had someone watching over him he thinks.
Car shopping again on Sunday, then we went up tp mum's for a few hours. Had them back here for a BBQ dinner.
Brandon starts high school tomorrow Another child growing up. Taking SIL to her OB appt tomorrow, let's see if it's as interesting as her last midwife appt.
Hope everyone has a great day today.
ETA, Sarah, I checked out Zanders new pics the other day, his room is looking great. Was wondering what sort of blinds you had put up. Trying to decide on Tehya's ones. Fantastic that Zander's speech is picking up too. Sure makes thigs alot easier when you can understand them. The first days back with Daddy at work are hard. I had both Noah and Tehya pining for him.
Had to LOL a minute ago, Tehya came over and said boogie to me then asked for a tissue. Oh well, atleast she wanted a tissue.

Sarah: Great looking room, and i love the pic of your DH and son with their backs to camera, i like them sort of shots
Trish: Luke was great with daycare, he didnt care about going, Mason i dont know, he is more clingy with me, but i am not a Mum who worries too much about it as i know once i leave the tears stop and they get over it
Lukes first day at new school was a bit of a mix up, we got there and had no idea what class he was in, then he wasnt on anyones lists, but finally they worked it out, there are 5 year 4 classes and of all the classes they put him in they picked the one with stairs, PITA as i have to get Cooper out of pram to go in classroom, typical lol
Trish: Good luck with high school thing, i am sure he will go fine with it, such a big thing though sending your kid off to high school! The memorial thing sounded nice although sad
Such an inspirational birth - so great to see!
