Hi Dee... I meant to add that Niall is still giving me the odd bite now and again... and I also accidentally pushed him off quite roughly once due to reflex... he didn't cry though, so musn't have hurt or scared him... poor little guy... I think the penny will drop soon... I recall Wade going through a similar phase that lasted a week or two before he cottoned-on.
Ha! The cricket is always on in this house too... but ATM DH is in Wade's bedroom sitting cross legged on the floor playing "trains" with him... and I'm taking Chrissy piccys of Niall.
bout to start digging out clothes to wear to the BB xmas dinner tonight. Not doing very well, my good arm is aching due to it having to take on all the weight when i carry something, and i didnt sleep last night... between allie and my wrist grrr... and its so hard to pick her up!! i cannot use my left arm for anything atm, because if where i broke it i cant even move my fingers without pain...
had some panadol 15's before, not doing anything for the pain (got rid of my headache though!!) so stopped taking them. i want to have a few drinks tonight, and dont want to mix meds and wine...
dont worry about me, just feeling pretty sad, sore and sorry for myself.
Finally back from the party - it was such fun. They had a clown who was hilarious and the kids loved him. It was a nice day outside, but a bit windy.
Bath - love Niall's new santa photo, so cute! Someone bought Chelsea "The Christmas Story" by **** Bruin (sp?) who writes Miffy. It tells the whole story of Mary & Joseph, beautiful book with very simple pictures. It's important that they understand Christmas isn't just about the presents.
Dee - poor little man, sounds like his teeth are bothering him, it's horrible as there really isn't that much you can do for it. My MCHN told me to get some ice cubes, rub your finger on the ice and then rub their gums (cools them down) or put a soft face washer in the fridge, then when cold, let them chew on it. Not a very fair comment by DH esp when he is buying beer & cigarettes. Might have just been a spur of the moment comment?
Simone - feel so sorry for you! I really hope you enjoy yourself tonight, you deserve it. Have a drink for me and Make sure you tell us all about it tomorrow.
IK - not enough hours in the day to get done what you want! You'll be up 24 hours a day LOL!!!! Glad you got your bras. When I was feeding, the Loveable bras were the most comfortable and at least gave you some shape. Breakfast was divine this morning, no children! I had eggs benedict with bacon and the hollandaise sauce was beautiful, plus their jumbo coffee. Chelsea enjoyed dancing, they are doing a dance to xmas songs, very cute as I get a demo when she gets home.
Looking forward to my garlic prawns tonight. One more party tomorrow - a 4 yo fairy party, so Chelsea is looking forward to wearing her fairy dress, wings, tiara, wand - the works!!! I wish I had of got a fairy dress for Marley too as I have seen babies ones - very cute.
Might not get a chance to pop back tonight, so everyone have a great night.
Awww Simone... ouchy!:neutral: I hope that the BB dinner tonight goes well and takes your mind off your pain! Can I sign your cast next Friday?! I'll help you make it pretty.
Ok... I've been summoned to check out the new train track design... back later...
Oh and one of the new Chrissy piccys of Niall that I uploaded onto his site shows his 2 new bottom teeth... he got them exactly the same time as Wade did according to his calendar.
Been putting up Chrissy lights today all around the house. Will see the effect later tonight.
Got kicked out of the house for awhile before as my two eldest kids have gone and organized something for dinner tonight without me knowing.
Hopefully going to mums tomorrow for a birthday lunch and then we'll head home Monday afternoon(kids have a day off!)
Hope your wrist feels better soon Simone!
Hiya Jess, Happy Birthday for tomorrow! I see you have adjusted your ticker... enjoy your 30's... it's the best decade I reckon
Hiya Mel: OOhhh garlic prawns yummo!!! They are soooo quick and easy... the only reason i'm not going to be a copy cat is cos they are so expensive! Might have them as a treat New Year's Eve dinner!
Bath it's not too bad when only cooking for 2, Chelsea will eat only one or two. The other bonus is my friend is buying them - I am doing dessert (bread & butter pudding, again - I love it!!). You are right - so quick and easy, yet so tasty!!! My mouth is watering now LOL!!!
Thankyou bath. I loved being 30...not looking forward to 31 though!
Mum actually gave me a tip for Telstra Prepaid Plus phones..atm they have a deal that if you recharge for $30 and nominate 5 fixed/mobile Telstra numbers, you can ring those numbers FREE for 30 days, so I went and had a check on the telstra site and promptly signed up. I honestly feel like I'm cheating the system, but this deal is great.( My b'day present to myself!)
Tim made me breakfast this morning, a lovely vegemite sandwich! A little bit more vege than I would like but yummy all the same!
Roast Lamb and Chicky sandwiches for tea tonite, plus a "surprise" birthday cake! I wangled the information out of my aunt! Apparently Kate is going to be a waitress and after she takes our "orders" she will come back out and say that sorry there will be no meal served tonite as the chef has thrown a wobbly!LOL
Hello to everyone else (wave!!) Been to GF's daughter's first b'day party today - she is such a little doll! Flynn was a lamb and slept from 12 till 2pm, then from about 4 to 6pm then from 7pm till now - slept through getting lugged in and out of the car! I think all the rolling on the grass and being handed around tired him out.
Tree was up yesterday - looks FANTASTIC!! DH was lovely and put the lights on for me and even complimented the final product - he is usually gruffly anti-chrissy deccos - but the tree just looks so great with all the baubles! will post a piccy - Nic, must check out your tree -it sounds lovely!
gotta go - DH's b'day on tueday so having mates over tomorrow - happy B'day Jess - a sagitarius like my DH - your DH is lucky to have someone like you!

Hi all,
Sounds like a good day was had by most yesterday!
I bought some more Christmas presents at the market yesterday and then went to watch the fire brigade demo comp. We left there late and headed to my GF's for dinner and got home and into bed by 11...and Oscar has only woken once (at my insistence, to alleviate the pressure in my leaky boob!). In 15 mins we are supposed to be at the fire station for a first aid refresher...
The rain is lovely - kind of glad I had to cancel on helping out with my riding club's Christmas gymkhana to attend the refresher, I mean indoors vs outdoors in rain and cold...pretty easy! I do miss riding in the gymkhana, though, as I haven't done that for 3 years running now
Must remember to get the decorations box out and decorate the house!
I"ll be back later, with personals, but I'll eat somethign and then get the boys up...
Just a quickie... about to get ready for our trip into the city for Myer Santa piccys... Simone: that's great! I'm so glad you enjoyed the BB dinner... they are usually great for catching up with people you've seen on here and having a good chat... Hiya Amanda: Happy 6 months Amanda for Cody! ...Rory: I was a bit like your DH, a bit anti-Santa etc before having my own kids, funny how you change... Nic: sounds like you had a great time at your street party, you're going to LOL at all your typo's darl! hehe... Jess: hope you have a lovely RELAXING day today
Well last night we had our neighbours over for drinks and dessert. It was just a last minute thing... I made a raspberry shortcake, very quick and easy (made the shortcake a few days ago)... we are having another set of neighbours over tonight! Not sure what I'll make for them yet...
Well better hop to it... want to get there nice and early so that we are at the start of that loooooooong queue!
