Hi girls,
A big hug and congratulations to Nic and Rory on their new arrivals, not too long now Ali and it will be your turn.
Jaspen A big hug and lots of :sticky vibes: being sent your way babe.
Bath I hope Niall's ear is better today poor baby.
Nic, Allanah was my run away child, this one time she was playing out the back in a pink TuTu when the phone rang, I went in and answered thinking she was safe playing inthe back yard, Anyway spoke to my sister for about 5 mins when there was a knock on the door and the lady from down the street was in her nightie holding my naked 20mnth old and her trike, seems she sliped out the side as the girls left the gate open when they went to school, she decided to ride her bike down the street naked, I freaked and was really embarrassed but mostly thankful that this women had the sence to grab her and bring her home. I wish your neighbour had more sense and compassion.

Wow look at all our babies/ toddlers. Growing up so fast.

Well I really haven't been around an aweful lot for months now, just a quick post in the meet up thread. As you can imagine life is pretty busy being on my own with 5. Michael will be home in just over a week for Christmas and into the new year although he has been asked to stay and work, I can't believe he even asked me if it was ok, dahhhh.....NO!! He's already working an extra week and all his family is turning upfrom next week for a big King Family Christmas reunion. His parents have been married for 50 years and we are all getting together, he's one of 7.
Well we decided that we are absolutely positively not having anymore. I love babies but raising all of them can be a tedious thankless task, lol.
Up coming events WE are off to the Wiggles concert next weekend, very exciting, Nathan loves them.
I'm off to the double headed in April, lucky me (well I think I'm lucky) is off to see Maroon 5 (3rd row seats, yay) and Matchbox Twenty. I'm so excited about going. I love their music. That is my Christmas and Birthday presents, my girlfriends from Tieri are coming with me. I can't wait.
Brianna had her graduation from Primary school on Wednsday night. She is so excited about going to high school, ( I keep reminding her it's Middle school, as it makes me feel better, lol) She seems to young, I don't want to let go but I know that the apron strings need to start being loosened.
Allanah is really excited about going to prep, She keeps telling people, anyone who will listen that she is getting uniforms and a big bag and a lunch box. So cute, so here starts my daily school runs again, no matter what, competing for car spaces, dealing with all those impatient people on the roads, I could go green, I should go green and walk to and from school, but I have gotten soooo lazy, I just don't want to do it, lol.
I am still breastfeeding Nathan on demand, although now that he's bigger and stronger I have to be careful what I wear as he seems to think they belong to him and he'll get them out when ever he feels like it, lol.
We are off to the Carols in the Park on Sat night in the city, My BF from Tieri and her family are here so we are going together, I'm so grateful to be going with them as I really wanted to go but with 5 on my own it can be difficult and stressful in crowded places. Particulrly for toilet breaks. One goes all must go, is my motto.
Well I've certainly clampered on about me enough. Glad to see most of you are doing well, :hugs: to those that are having a rough trot, remember tomorrow is always a fresh day.
Happy birthday Jess for the other day. I'll try to pop back in later.
Dee
Edit: Rory what a gutsy guts, lol, and hahaha at the MHN about the breastfeeding booklet.
