Hi girls, have finally caught up on sleep and back in the land of the living!

Rory - Sing Star is the best! Its such good fun and something everyone can join in. Maybe we should organise a Junies Sing Star comp? WTG DH for letting you have a snooze on NYD, my DH was the greedy one that got to have a 4+hour sleep!! Love the family photo, although it was a bit hard to get a good look at Oliver.

Bath - I was thinking of you in the heat, you poor love! Glad to hear you are feeling better with the cooler weather. Not looking good the next few days, more hot ones to come.

Maya - I don't mind the hot weather if I can get cool. MIL pool is not heated either but on those stinking hot days its awesome to just jump in and let the water take your breath away, love that feeling. Its so nice to hear that you and your parents are getting along well and it doesn't really matter why its happening, just go with it. I read your boo hoo post, what a witch! You should have been very proud of yourself for how you handled it, dignified as always - well done.

Jess - great pics, you've got heaps on there. Glad the rabbit is settling in well. Hope its not too hot for you guys today. Nice in Melb today, warm but not too hot. 30 I think they said.

Julie - I totally agree, you should be allowed to run your air con, esp being pregnant and having small children. I would turn off other things before the air con. I like a cool house!

Ali - thats so great that Liam is being a dream baby for you. Tori sounds like she is handling everything very well. I think being younger, they don't get so put out by the changes in the house.

Ali, Nic and Rory - good luck on the WW journey. You can all be inspiration for each other.

Going to tackle Chelsea's bday cake either tonight or tomorrow morning. We visited the playcentre yesterday to confirm arrangements and all is set. After having her parties at home every year, its so much easier (and cheaper) doing it somewhere else! She is very excited.

Better go finish the last of my washing. Beautiful day outside, not too hot but getter hotter the next 2 days.
