Babies Born June 2006 #48

Mel- I've been collecting everything for the kids to go back to school as well, tough job here! All their uniforms are ready, just have to pick up a hat on Wednesday for Liz to start on Thursday.

Went to the fireworks over in Corowa tonight and I had words with my brother. He was there with his fiance/girlfriend ( I don't know what to call her anymore) and her niece. Well as soon as we arrived it was like we invaded his time with them, even though he wanted to know what time we would be there because he was saving an area for us. The kids went up to give him a hug, and he pushed Kate away saying that she was annoying him ( excuse me???) then because Bella was grizzling(she has a low tolerance to some noises) he pushed her away and told her to go to her mother!(excuse me again???) I said maybe we should leave seeing as his majesty doesn't feel like we are worthy to be in the same area as him, and he replied with, "we'll have words soon, Jess!" Mum asked me to be quiet, so I just walked away from him and moved the children to a small clearing. My brother has a habit of making me feel like a second class citizen because I have children and being me, I state how I feel about him, sponging off my parents!

Anyway, everything has been quiet around here lately, the children are quietly excited about next week, but more excited about seeing their friends again. I am looking forward to witnessing Liz's first day but sad at the same time, because I won't have my little helper around all the time.

DH is working on my laptop atm, he installed a new hard drive into his old laptop for my mum and dad and now he's trying to get mine to charge again..I miss it so much.

Well, better get some sleep as we have to be over in Corowa by 8.30am tomorrow morning (or should I say this morning) as the Federation Festival starts around the 9 am mark, then we are taking the children to the market for awhile.

For all of you who have first timers this year I thought you might get a kick out of this... When my BHL was going into his 1st year of school he was great very excitied and was very happy to be going, while at school he loved it had a ball and made lots of friend my MIL didnt have a problem with him all year as he loved going, But then the year ended and he went on his end of year break, when it was time for him to return the next year he calmly told his mum that he isnt going again as he has learned all he need to learn and thought that he only need to go for one year. So now MIL had to drag him to school everyday for the whole term the teacher had to hold him back while she left all because some how it got lost in traslation the year before that school is for life npot one year, so maybe we should all sit them down and make sure they realise that they have to keep going and not just for one year... and before you ask he is number 2 and did have a older sister already going so you would have thought he would have gotten the idea. LOL

have a great day...

Is anyone still BF their original Junie babies? Just when I think the booby bit is over Nathan latches back on. I still seem to be giving him boob 3 times a day, I WANT MY BOOBS BACK!!!! I say no and try to give him a cup and he slaps it away and tears at my shirt to have "his' booby. Then I feel bad for telling him no so I give it to him.

Tali that is aweful about that lady's DH, just so sad. Congrat's on taking the plunge and going for No. 4, Don't listen to that old woman's ramblings, 4 is a good number. The flooding is really a catch 22 isn't it so awesome to see the ground wet bust grrrrrrr does it have to flood. As you know I used to live in Tieri near Emerald,so I have quite a few friends living in Emerald, a couple of them had to be evacuated as their houses went under,they had enough warning though to be able to put stuff up and packed the car chockers with their prize possessions, the biggest thing though is that they are insured for flash flooding and storm damage but NOT rising flood water damage,so they are saying insurance companies are laughing their way to the bank and won;t have to pay as most people do not add rising flood level damage to their policies and it didn't happen in a storm, bullsh it isn't it.

Nic yay for Tyron on the weight gain, see as long as he is growing and healthy there is no need to worry about how you feed him. With the formula , what brand and kind is it, could it be just the adjustment phase onto it, are you measuring properly (I assume you are just putting the ideas out there, Could he be lactose intollerant, no wait that's explosive poos isn't it ummmm, Does he need glutten free????? May be give an extra water bottle in the mix as it is Summer and babies dehydrate very quickly and maybe the extra water will give him softer stools. (Disclaimer some friendly advice to follow about BF, I don't wish to turn this into a FF-v-BF debate, cause quite frankly don't give a pigs bottom how anyone else feeds their child....I recognise It's a personal choice) 6wks, 12-16 weeks and then 6 months are the three hurdle times to be prepared for when breastfeeding, At these times babies need to be kept at the breast very often to kick start the next rung in the breastfeeding ladder. As baby grows we need to increase our supply thats why they have those hurdles they should only last a couple of days and your milk should increase to meet your babies demand, increasing FF decreases their appetite and need for boob so milk store deminish further instead of increasing. Yes it means a screaming whinging baby for a couple of days maybe sore boobs from increased suckling, sleepless couple of nights but if it is something you really want to do you have to perservere, Easier said then done. Also what is his feeding schedule, is it regular or irregular, if it is irregular on top of the hurdle phases this too can decrease your suply, What about weightloss...in you, are you keeping a regular healthy diet with minimal caffiene and increased water. I know it seems alot to consider and it is easier to give it up and chuck them on the bottle, I've been there done that and still went on the breastfeed my last three for a very long time. The biggest thing in all of this is don't torment yourself. Do what you need to do to survive day to day with two under two, if FF makes everyones life better in your house then so be it and damn those people that tell you differently, you have given him a good start, big props to you girl!!!
Mel how is Marley's fat lip, Nathan goes a gutsa all the time and always seems to be bleeding from somewhere, but he did the same thing a couple of months ago, owwweeeee it was really bad cut on the inside and two little punctures on the outside, it was aweful. But they are resilient aren't they. Ready for school......
Amanda hey babe we have to catch up soon, how about next week (not this week) some day. We can meet up at the Hyperdome out side Woolies, Love to see ya.
Ali tough luck with Liam sleeping and ahhhhhh Tori, so cute. I hope you get some sleep soon.
Hi Jess you sound all organised to start a new year.
Hi Juli, Rory, Bath and everyone I have missed.
I wonder how Maya is enjoying her holiday, ohhhhhh so lovely.
Well better to this day started, I promised to take the kids to their favourite park at the beach today, so I'd better get cracking.
Bye Beautiful Ladies
Dee

Hi...Hello....Is there anybody out there!!! No!!!
hmmmmm it's very quiet, where are you all. Well the kids are all ready for school hip hip hooray.
They can't wait they are all very excited about going,I can't believe I'm back down to having 2 at home with me. I joined in on a few of the freebie activities that the council runs last year and they were lots of fun so I think we'll start going again to toddler sports, music hour and playgroup. The kids will love it.
Good luck tomorrow everyone with getting your kide off to school.
Dee

Hiya Dee :) I'm playing Scrab in FaceBook with my sis RoseHannah. Yep, I'm still BFing even though i should be weaning because of my Hyperthyroid... but he is such a boobie boy... it's been very hard. Hey I really enjoyed your contribution to that Family Tax thread ;) Gotta go, my turn!

Well I took May of to school today for her very 1st day she was so happy that she was dressed and ready to go at 6:30 am and asking is it time yet by 7:30, but we got there in the end. Zayden like always was a bit timid to go to class as there are many new faces in his room, seemed like there was only one other boy from his class last year. while there were quite a few from his class in the room next door, gee I hate it when the teachers dont think when putting the classes together, he will be fine and make new friends, As for may it was like she had been doing this her whole life, she went in put her food in the fridge and then sat down and started to colour with her friend pearl, who she knows from school pick up. I had forgoten to bring her sheet and pillow for rest time so had to go home to get this and when I got back she didnt even see me she was sitting there like such a big girl on the mat, now all I have to do is stop crying and missing her so much I feel like there is a big part of me missing I know that in a few days all will be fine and I will be happy for her but right now all I feel is sadness, that she is in school when I feel she is still so young and should only be in kindy, and home with me, but thats just me beening selfish. doesnt help that Kai is in bed and BHL is away so I have no destrations. Anyway sorry for the sob I have loaded some photos of her in the gallery if you would like a look.

Hope all of you who had to take there 1st timers to school did better than I have or atleast have someone to talk to.

have a great day only 2.5 hrs until I get to pick up my baby....

Ohhhh big hugs Tali, It was the same in this house this morning, but no tears here. Just big smiles and plenty of woohooos. Allanah kept saying, bye mum, see ya, she eventually said you can go now mum. Lol. I know they will be having a great day.

Bath, Thanks, I love scrabble, I play it on FB too, lol it's fun.

Actually the whole Facebook thing is a little too distracting but I'm kinda addicted and have found heaps and heaps of my old friends I'm listed as Dee King if you'd like to add me.

I bought Nathan his first set of Jocks last week, he loves them he keeps chucking his shirt up to check them out. He's just wearing them for fun at the moment but I think toilet training is just around the corner.
Has anyone started already?

Hiya girls - quick one from me - will post more tomorrow morn but wanted to say Tali I love the first day of school pics! Mel, is Marley's first day tomorrow? Good luck hun :)

And Dee the jocks sound so cute!

Oh Tali, I hear you! I will prob be like that tomorrow. Its so very sad but exciting at the same time, esp as Chelsea is my first and I feel like she has grown up all of a sudden. We have everything out laid out on the couch ready for tomorrow. I have butterflies just thinking about taking her tomorrow. She is so excited and can't wait. May looks so beautiful with her pigtails and her uniform. She looks like she settled in really well.

Dee - I added you to my friends in Facebook. It is addictive, isn't it? Marley's lip is fine now, still has the white bits on the lip but she doesn't notice it anymore. Glad Allanah had a fun day at school, prob seeing her big sisters go helps? MIL has been putting Marley on the potty so if she wants to do it, she can go for it LOL!

Bath - one of my very dear friends and I have been playing Scrabble for nearly 17 years! We even have our original scorebook as we were very competitive. We still play about once a fortnight and I have finally got him to join FB. He is still trying to work out how to get one etc, so hopefully we can play online now. Who wins more, you or rosehannah?

Ali - how is Liam going sleeping? Hopefully things are improving for you. Have a great time away too.

My little munchkin has inherited something from her big sister - taking nappies off at night!!!!! Chelsea didn't start until she was about 2 and we used masking tape to keep them on. Marley took one off last night, wet the bed. Take off sheets etc, put on new sheets. About one hour later I check on her, nappy is in the corner of the room, along with her pj bottoms and she is sitting on her pillow rubbing her eyes, sitting in wee! Take her out, change sheets again. This time I use sticky tape to put the nappy on. This morning I wake her to take to MIL and there is the nappy in the corner again, this time she has just pulled it off like they are pants ARGGGGGHHH! So far so good tonight, but I have made sure I used extra tape and a singlet suit so she better not get it off tonight. Might have to go and buy some extra tape tomorrow as I have a feeling I might be using alot of it.

I'll let you all know how Chelsea's first day of school goes tomorrow.

That's Pat's favourite trick as well at the moment Mel! He takes his off in the mornings though, I've taken to him wearing the singlets that do up under his crutch so he can't take the nappy off!

Dee I haven't started him yet but I'm getting close, he's watching the other boys go so he is getting the idea.

Mel Cody is just starting to take his nappy off, if I forget to put his shorts back on before his day nap then when I check on him it's off in the corner of the cot.

Well Lockie went well on his first day yesterday, he's so grown up in his uniform, I'll put some pics up later.

Well it was my turn for the trip over and hurt lip, see below, my poor, poor little man.

Well I've had a crappy 12ish hours, at about 6pm last night Cody was hopping off the couch and slipped and hit the coffee table, I picked him up and blood was p!ssing out of his mouth, took a while to stop and I had a look and it's like he scraped his top teeth down his bottom lip. So I took him to the ER and waited about an hour and sure enough he needed 1 stich, my poor baby :cry:. Then this morning walking the kids to school, we got half way there and the sky literally spilt open and soaked us, so I said forget it and turned around and walked home in the pouring rain, so that's my crappy 12ish hours.

hugs xoxo

Awwww Amanda :hug: I'll finish your avvy tonight and send it in... that's something I can do to cheer you up! :)

Dee: I got the potty out yesterday, you prompted me, I think Niall could start practising anyhow... he sat on it happily yesterday... expectant LOL

have to get ready for Wade's 'get to know you' interview with his kindy teacher today.

Jess - glad I'm not the only one who has to contend with it LOL!!!

Amanda - oh poor Cody! Things happen in 3's in here, and I think that's the 3rd one to hurt their lip. How is now, does he have a fat lip? How did the first day of school go (apart from the rain!). Would love to see pics.

Bath - when is Wade's interview? How exciting for him, is he excited?

Rory - baby brain LOL!!! Yes, it was Chelsea's first day today, Marley still has to wait a while :lol:

Dee - saw you pics on Facebook, how gorgeous! Love Allanah's uniform. Looks like she was happy to be a school girl now.

Well today went off without a hitch. I had to wake Chelsea up as she was still snoozing at 7.45am. She was keen to get dressed and she looked so big and grown up. Her bag was very heavy as it had all her school books in it, so I carried it for her. She got into class, said hello to her teacher and sat down with a friend from kinder and started playing with playdough. She looked at me and said "give me a kiss and you had better go"! That bought a few tears to my eyes, but I held it together. DH took the video cam, he couldn't help himself. We waved goodbye and that was it. Most of the kids were great, only one I saw had a few tears. I picked her up at 12.30 and she had eaten everything I gave her for lunch. The teacher said what a lovely girl she is, very polite and easy going. So nice for a parent to hear that. She is looking forward to going back tomorrow.

Have put some pics in my gallery.

Oh that was a bit of baby brain!! Maybe cause I was thinking that Flynn will be starting school soon!!

Just popping in to say I read all your posts and wish I had time to do the same, but congrats to all the mummies who made it thru the first day of school. I am so going to need some Jackie O sunnies when Flynn starts.

I am trying to post new pics which DH took today - will let you know if they upload (seems a bit slow ATM)

Well glad all are big kids are doing so well in school. May is loving it she told me today that she can walk herself into class and that I dont need to come I told her too bad I like to come and I will be walking her in, which is funny as today was the 1st day I haven't walked Zay into class and he was a bit upset as he wanted me to I guess I will just have to leave for school earlier so that I can do both and still have som,e matt time with May..

Kai is like a little lost soul ATM she is hanging around me like a little fly I think she is really missing May as Yesterday she gave her a big kiss and a cuddle when we picked her up..

I too have brought out the potty Kai is sitting on it but I dont think she knows what she is ment to do just yet but she is still quite young so we will see how it goes I just know if she doesnt get it now then she wont be trained until the next wet...

well hope you all have a great day..


Rory just checked out you photo's you truely have two very beautiful boys you are very blessed..

Oh Tali, poor little Kai!

Finally I got the pics DH took yesterday onto my photo page - yay!

Well Cody's lip is a bit better today, I'm a bit scared that he'll get an infection in itas it's looking a bit funny, so will let DH have a look and see what he thinks of it and if he thinks it's a bit fishy I'll take him to the Drs tomorrow and get antiboitics for it. DH left me the car today and tomorrow so that I can go and pick Lockie up early a 1:15pm today and tomorrow and then back to normal next week.

Ther are some pics of Cody's lip and the boys first day at school pics as well in my gallery, if anyone wants a peek.

Mel where were the pics of Chelsea? In the gallery or photobucket?

Rory the pics a great you have such beautiful boys.

Bath did you get my email with my new email addy?

EDIT Well after I pick up DH this afternoon, we'll be going back to the ER. I just got back from the local GP and I spoke to one of the nurses and got her to have a look at Cody's lip and the stitch has gone, so off to see what the hospital has to say.

hugs xoxo

Rory - oh my god, Ollie is just so beautiful! Those pics are gorgeous esp the one looking over your shoulder. Now I really want a cuddle IRL! Have you retrieved Flynn's finger from up your nose LOL!!!

Tali - Marley has been the same, missing her playmate. Today she went up into the kids loungeroom and just sat on the little couch that Chelsea normally sits on, it looked so sad. Mum is definately not as exciting as Chelsea. Glad May is enjoying being a big school girl.

Amanda - ouch, saw the pics, his lip looks swollen the poor little man. What did dr say? Lockie looks like such a big boy and nice uniform too.

Sorry pics are in the BB gallery, I can finally upload pics there now.

Second day of school went just as well as yesterday apart from having to drop her off in the pouring rain (Amanda, I totally sympathise with you). Trying to juggle Marley on my hip, hold an umbrella, get Chelsea's bag on and put up her umbrella and trying to stop my jeans falling down - it was a sight!

Hi All, how exciting for all the big kids going back to school.

We are doing it tough here at the moment, we think Liam has colic and he has started screaming the house down in the late arvos. For the last couple of weeks he has been impossible to settle to sleep between about 4-9, in the last couple of days he has taken to screaming hysterically and is quite inconsolable. We are actualley supposed to be away on holiday, we went down yesterday and booked in (we were just staying at a caravan park), but 3 hours after we arrived, we packed up and came home again, Liam was just screaming and screaming and it was too stressful trying to deal with it somewhere other than home. We have our 6 weeks check up next week, so hopefully the GP can give us some advice. It is just so heartbreaking watching him cry like that, makes me feel like joining in.

Anyway I am off to bed as both of my babies are sleeping and I am going to make the most of it.

Ali- I hope that the GP can give you some answers next week nothing worse than having a crying baby and not knowing how to help them, must say I am normally crying along with them. Not that, that is much help to anyone but better than bottling it all up.. Shame you didnt get you break but I know how you feel when your not at home you feel like everyone must be walking past and hearing all the crying and wishing that the baby would be quite but really what most people are thinkingthe oppeset like " I have been there " or " I wonder if there is anything I could do to help " but most are too scared to ask if you needed some help I know I alway chicken out. but like I said hope all imporves soon or at the very least see if there is a reason for all that crying...

Mel- I checked in the Gallery the other day and still couldnt find the photo's I only found the picture of Chelsea's cake. I will have another look after this, did you put them under a speical name..

Sorry have to go I have just been told Kai has steped in dog poo so will be back after...

Ok that wasnt as bad as I thought it would be...

Mel- I have just checked and have found your photos dont know what I was doing wrong last time anyway she just looks like such a big girl, You must be very proud.. its quite a nice uniform better than the one my kids have as its all green they all look like little lepercons( sp?).

Well as BHL has been away now for almost 2 weeks he has already told me that he doesnt want to stay there for the whole year ( I so new this was going to happen) so now it looks like we might be moving when I wanted to in the 1st place when the lease is up... The only problem is it will be mid winter so blood cold and we will have to try and get May into a kindy mid year, so finger crosed we will be able to do that, we also have to find somewhere to live we like berwick so it looks like that is where we will try to go, but as we will have to rent for atleast the start we have to find somewhere that will take a family with 3 kids and 2 very old dogs. But BHL keeps telling me not to stress it will all work out. Iknow it always does but I cant help myself I always stress about the small ( well big really) stuff so if anyone know which are the good part and which are the parts to stay away from that would be great same goes for schools but I think I might start a thread and see what others think who come from around there..

have a great sunday

There is a photo of Liz in her school uniform in my gallery.... I'm just about to add some more photos of the rest of the kids.

My poor little girl didnt want me to leave her at school today she told me that she wanted me to stay and that she has " done enough school now" so hard to leave her had to get the teacher to destract her while I left. I know that she will be having a great day but talk about making me feel bad all over again.... She just looks so small compare to all the 5 yr old in her class... Well at least when we move she will be in prep at the right age...

Hi girls,
congrats on first days at school! I'm dreading my turn...it's years away, but I'm dreading it!
Really quickly cos it's WAY past my bedtime. I've posted pics on Facebook cos they upload far quicker and easier there.
Gotta go, don't know when I'll be online again, but I'm at my Uncle's overnight and he's got good wireless internet. It's been bloody cold lately, though today was not as cold - even though we were walking in snow in the Wicklow Mountains :)
Bed...

Sorry for not been on for a bit.

Well it looks as if Cody pulled out his stitch and by the time we went back to the hospital there was nothing more they can do. We just have to let it heal, then after about a month go to the GP for a referal to a Plastic surgeon. But they told us that they most probably won't operate until he's at least 7-8 as then he will be old enough to know not to pull the stitches out :cry:

Hi everyone.

hugs xoxo

hey amanda - sorry to hear about the dramas with Cody's lip - hope it heals well over the next few weeks

Maya - you seem to be having a good holiday - hi!!

School starters - congrats to all the littlies are into their second week at school - I hope this mornings adventure back for week 2 was as exciting as the first day last week for them

Ali - I hope it was just a temporary thing with Liam and things have settled down so you can all sleep.

Tali - congrats on the decision to make the move - yep it will be cold but right at the moment I'd trade almost anything for some cooler weather LOL!!!

Hi to everyone

Ali - how is Liam going? It must be awful to see him so upset. Bummer about missing out on the time away but I can understand why.

Tali - PML!! Leprauchans, how funny! The thread with all the photos is so cute, they all look gorgeous and it amazing how different the uniforms are. How exciting (and scary) about you coming down earlier. At least May will have had some experience at a school environment and might make the transition easier. I bet as soon as you leave, she has a great time (I know that sounds awful!). I find when I am around, Chelsea is different and is more aware of me being there. I'm sure she'll settle in soon, its only early days. How is Zayden going, has he got over his first day nerves?

Jess - saw your pics, love the one of all the kids together. Are things a bit quieter around your place now?

Amanda - poor Cody, he is in the wars. Hopefully it will heal well and you won't have to worry about the plastic surgery.

Maya - great to hear from you and will check out your pics. Glad you are enjoying your holiday.

Jaspen - how are you feeling? Ms still hanging around?

Well Chelsea had her first full day at school today and did very well. She is so excited as they are making pancakes at school tomorrow for Shrove Tues? She also showed me how to do "in the name of the father, the son and the holy spirit, Amen. It was so hilarious as instead of saying Amen she was saying "Im in". Had to explain that to her. And she told me that god lives under your chin in your heart. Had to explain that a bit better to her too!

Better go, got a hectic morning as I have to drop Marley at MIL and then Chelsea to before school care then off to work.

Hi to Bath, Rory, Julie - hope you guys are all well.

Its funny how they super impose words isn't Mel!
Liz has been 'blessing' herself for years but has refused to ever say the words, she does it silently!
My kids are making pancakes as well tomorrow, well Jack's class is as he is now a Gr. 6 student, he promised to take milk tomorrow so DH has to buy him some for the morning...
If you want to find out why I'm so ****ty check out the BooHoo room and you can see. https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums...ad.php?t=59487. I'm not going to repost in here!
Kate has a fat lip courtesy of Tim! They were playing on the swing and it come back and hit her....poor hunny she has a big bruise on one side of her mouth and its sooo swollen.
Heading down to Euroa hopefully Thursday, as the neighbours saw a 4 ft brown go into their yard, I went down on Friday but there was no sign of it, I'm hoping it has moved on.However the dog next door has gone quiet so heres hoping it didn't get to him first!
My brother had a shock on Sunday night, his fiance/girlfriend/whatever she is( I've lost track!) rang him and said they caught a prowler outside her bedroom window! Obviously he has been watching for a while and the one time when my brother wasn't there,he was in Rutherglen cause his car blew the back seal, he decided to sneek a peak! It didn't work though because someone spotted him, snuck up on pinned him to the ground...three calls to the police and 25 mins later, he was arrested for prowling.
Better head to bed or else I won't get up this morning!

sorry its been so long between posts.
Ive spent the day cleaning and cooking and just trying to get things in order!
Amanda- ouch to Cody's lip, how did he hande getting the stitch and when it actually happened?
Ive seen all the starting school photos they are all very cute!
Rory- love your pics too
Ali- how did your appointment go?
Dee- Thanks for all of your advise.
im sorry i planned to write more and i can hear Tyron has just woken up, i'll try and come back on tonight!

just quickly again, thats all i seem to get time for these days!

I text Donna yesterday to see how she is doing and she only has 2weeks until her due date but feels something may happen in the next few days! Will let you know if i hear anything.
Her sister will be at Tyrons christening on Sunday (seeing DH best friend) so I'm sure i will hear if bub arrives!

ok gotta go feed Ty and then hope for a good nights sleep. dh been away for the last week and looking forward to him coming home tomorrow

Thanks for the update Nic, how exciting for her.

How's the plans going for Tyron's christening? Look forward to lots of pics.

Where is everyone lately? Its been so super quiet in here.

Chelsea went to the podiatrist today as her ankle rolls over when she walks. He said its not too bad and should be easily corrected. She got fitted for some orthotics for her shoes which I pick up in 2 weeks. She has also got some exercises to do to help strengthen her ankle. She thought it was fun doing the exercises.

Marley starts at creche tomorrow and thankfully DH is home tomorrow and Friday to take her at a reasonable time and pick her up early so she is not there for a long day. I hope she has a fun day.

Better go and get things ready for work tomorrow.

hey all just a quick one this morning, I'm meeting Dee at 10am this morning for a catch up, an also , I got a :bfp: and am due 17th of Oct, another Oct baby for us right inbetween Lockie's and Wyatt's birthday.

:happyforyou:Congratulations Amanda giving you all the girls vibes I can muster :stickyvibesgirl:

Well BHL is home for the moment so we are tring to work out when we are planning to move and if we will buy or rent actully I would like to say we but BHL only answer to every question I ask him is dont worry about it we have ages he seems to forget that he only comes home of one week so we dont have as much time as he thinks.....

Anyway I am still trying to deal with May crying at drop off each day saying that she wants me to stay there are only about 3 who cry now and I bet you anything they are all the one who are 4 and have there birthdays in May with Mayleaka... I have noticed that the school call her May alot I didnt realise how much that would anoy me until now as I too call her May or monkey but everything is May her name badge its on the roll and her tidy whole my foult really when I inroled her they asked if there where any other names she goes by and I wrote down May but I didnt realise that they would use it this much... Well at least I know for next time I will only put down Mayleaka and she can choose to shorten her name or not... Kai is starting to love been home on her own she just sooooo quite and so happy to play by herself, But she has started to take her arms out of her strap in her car seat so that she can lean forward so now when she does it she trys to open the windows and I court her today trying to un click her seat belt where it holds her car seat onto the seat, the straps are so tight its hard to click her in but she still gets her arms out and then if BHL is driving they are to tight for me to be able to put them back in.... she is the first child of mine to do this and I really dont know how to stop it, she knows she has done wrong as when you go to get her out of the car she is busy trying to get her arms back in, so of course when we tell her off she start with the big I so upset cry...

anyway hope you all have a great day

Racing to catch up while the boys sleep - my PC has been offline since last Thursday :(

Tali sorry you are having a rough time with May....

So glad to be able to read up everyone's posts:dance:

Oh what wonderful news Amanda :D Yes, I received your email with new addy. Just doing the finishing touches to your avatar... belly and all! I've just found a site (avvy creations) with lots and lots of new pets... if you have any let me know!

ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG my BHL had to go over to his mothers house yesterday to borrow something so I didnt want to go so the kids and I stayed home. Anyway while he was over she gave him the 3rd deg about moving to melb asking if its what he really want to do ( what its ok to forse me to stay somewhere I dont want to be but not ok for him to move to somewhere he may not want to be...) He told her that yes he does want to go and that he is happy to be moving... She does not believe him, But then she started on him about us wanting a 4th baby ( she must have heard this from sil as we have a mutul friend) anyway she was telling him that it would be the worst thing we could ever do and that he would be stupid to go along with me and my plan!!!! He said he thought it was funny and he kepted making jokes about the 4th baby and as he had a big smerk on his face, so she now thinks I am am PG even though he told her I wasnt. I was wondering why she hasnt spoken to me in 3 week ( not thats that unuall (sp?) I thought it was because I told her that we are moving but no its because we want another baby next year. Sorry just had to get this of my chest or I may have exploded as BHL just things its all a big joke and that I shouldnt let her botter me as she is just a craky old cow as he puts it, but I cant help myself she makes me so mad...

Tali...I feel so sorry for you darl!
Well, we received a letter on Friday stating we had 14 days to repair the damages (wow....they want a dog run ) and to do a general clean up of the property, which we thought was ok, even though the cow had no right to force her way in like that! But as wellas that was a notice to vacate notice saying that we had 120 days to get out,( she also put a date in 9/4/08) which is only 63 days).So as you can see it's been fun and games here.
