    hang on, since I've been MIA, Hay, are you PREGNANT? CONGRATULATIONS HONEY! WELL DONE!!!

    Fill me in, what's the due date etc???
    Ha ha ha...yes, I'm pregnant!! Apart from DH and the drs, you girls are the only ones that know yet. I am about 6 and a bit weeks along so far and just got the results back of my 3rd blood test. They are increasing nicely (bHCG: 7337 at 6 weeks, which is fantastic) and my GP and I have decided that I won't worry about having another blood test now as I have the ultrasound next week (Thursday).

    Feeling tired and a bit queasy, but apart from that, nothing else. Due date is around the end of July 07...this will make my 2 almost exactly 2 years apart.

    We are thinking of telling parents on Christmas day, but of course it all depends somewhat ont he result of the scan. I would really love to be closer to 12 weeks before I said anything, but you sometimes wonder how you can keep things like this away from your parents. Already my MIL thinks that there is something wrong with me as she knows I went for a blood test the other day. She didn't ask me, but asked DH on the side if I was ok. He he he.....he wanted to tell her there and then. but of course didn't. he just said that my sepcialist wanted me to have some tests done to see how my system was reacting to the drugs I have been on. Whilst not the truth, it wasn't exactly a lie either!! i would have said the same. he is a terrible liar, so he did well to come up with that off the top of his head!

    Put the Xmas tree up tonight - no help from DH at all. He plays the role of scrooge so often, I'm not entirely sure that it is just an act. i just wish he would get into it a little. After all, he has much to be thankful for this Christmas.

    We are having our staff party tomorrow night...of course it is going to be 38 degrees here tomorrow and 34 the next day, so I imagine it won't cool down much overnight. Ah well, we'll be outside......with the mozzies...

    DH has been very busy organising crew to go over to the fires in Gippsland/North East. He can't go as he is needed here JIC (god forbid). We have our fire plan already worked out for the farm and home (Pup will go into town to mum's and I will deal with the cows and asset protection if need be). We have fire fighting tanks already strategically placed near the houses and the tractors are being left near the generator so we can get power to the dairy to run pumps over there if need be. We are praying that tomorrow passes with no activity in our region.

    I just got word that I am going to be doing a reading at Christmas mass this year. I am quite chuffed! I am an RC and admittedly, lapsed in my church going for many years. However, since Pup has arrived, and then getting him Christened, I figured I should pull my finger out and start attending regularly. Now Pup is walking, he is a bit of a handful at mass as he doesn't want to sit still, but usually I go when mum goes, so there are two of us to run after him. Anyway, I've done a few readings at mass this year, and they obviously thought I was good enough for the main mass!!!! At least we will be guarranteed a seat (unlike last year when we were sitting ont he floor of the foyer!)

    That's about it for me. Time for bed.

    Hay, it is a worry with all these fires. DH is on a strike team ( lots of lovely OT - but no DH for the weekend) he called not long ago and is in Bairnsdale. conditions not as bad as predicted PHEW. It must be hard not to tell. we told straight away with all my pg's, but have never lost a bubs so dont know how I would be if I did. congrats about the reading for mass, you'll do well I am sure

    Rachel. sorry Balke's sleeps are not fabulous atm, hopefully he gets these last few teeth through and then he's due for a break

    Deb, glad you managed to avoid a fit, but bummer about being sick in the first place, hope its just viral and he's better quickly for you.

    Kate, yep gorgeous smiling photo, glad the reflux is getting more controlled, and Kelsey sounds like she's being a fabulous girl for mum and dad.

    Bel, Bec, Heather, Gemma, Brooke

    we went to the pool this morning for a cool off, has been a funny day as we had to drive DH into work at 5am, so the littlies were asleep again by 7. Dion bit a hole in his swim ring when he got p***ed off and chucked a tanty, so will have to buy a new one :eek:
    we have carols by candlelight here tomorrow, hope the weather holds out.
