    HI girls, just popping and saying hello- life is hectic here too. My little man is crawling around and getting into everything, he has also started pulling himself up and hanging on with 1 hand, so I fear that he is not too far from walking , he is only 7 months, so I am hoping he waits a little longer- Im so not ready.

    My darling daughter has become extremly vocal latley (she was already, but is now more so) Today she said ' that's not fair' when I told her I need to change Liams nappy before I could play with her (where did she learn that from) and now when you ask her to do something, her stock standard answer is 'why?' OMG when did my baby grow up so much.
    We are starting her in daycare for half a day a week because we really think she needs that extra social interactions and some of her own time, and Liam needs a break from her too.

    Work is going well, I have a well spirited class, but they are lovely, interesting kids. It is taking them some time to adjust to the change, but I am confident that we will get there.

    Glad to hear that everyone is well. I really enjoy coming in here from time to time and seeing what everyone and their kidlets are getting up to.

    Goodmorning

    Just dropped Wade off at Kinder... Niall is watching In The Night Garden so I have a few minutes to grab in here.

    Hiya Ali! Good to hear from you. Oh yes they grow up waaaay too fast don't they? Niall parrots Wade all the time and has said "Not fair!!!" a few times too. The worst thing he says ATM is "Goodbye stinky bum bum" which I think Wade said to him in a silly moment and it has stuck, as Verity would say "bigtime". It's awful when he says it to strangers at the shops... hopefully they can't quite make it out what he has said!

    Mel: good on you for doing your lunchtime walks I've just had to make two mad dashes for the train to and from kinder... equates to about two 50 meter sprints! LOL does that count? hehe Regarding the electricity bill: I think it's because we have a teenager Verity uses a lot of electricity... she always leaves lights on in her room... leaves the column heater on (one day I found it on the highest setting at 2pm... not happy!!!)... she blow dries her hair and uses a hair straightener every day... uses appliances like the tumble drier when I'm still in bed early in the morning (I can tell because the laundry is all steamy)... has a stereo in her room... the list goes on. If it was just DH, myself and the boys I reckon the bill would be closer to yours. *sigh* what can you do hey?

    Went to the football on the weekend but had a wretched time. Our team lost badly and verity and I had these awful supporters behind us... so we up and left and went over to DFO for a look! V's boyfriend came along too. He's a lovely lad. At least that's one issue that isn't giving us grief!!!

    Ok better complete Wade's school enrolment forms! Can you believe it! My baby going to school next year! In some ways it'll be good for Niall to have a break from him too, like you mentioned Ali... sometimes they just need a bit of space!

    Maya: hope you get to enjoy the nearby snow!!! How beautiful!

    HI my lovely Junies

    i keep waiting until ive got long enough to do one of my big catch up posts but i think if i do that then i may not post until Christmas!

    Thanks for the birthday wishes - had a nice day with a friend coming over and bringing gorgeous lebanese takeaway, cake and bubbly so i was happy but useless for the rest of the day.

    Mum arrives in around 3 hours and i so can't wait for the help. This pregnancy has been the hardest by about a million times and i have had so many pains/contractions/happenings over the last week its just not been funny - but i can relax when she gets here as she can look after the boys so bubs can arrive anytime - if before next Tuesday!

    Typically when i am at my least able so many things have happened - the playgroup i have been setting up in my village finally started 2 weeks ago - read letter box drops to 230 houses!/toys pick ups/so much running around when i can't do it comfily. Have done lots of gardening recently - dont ask why now!!!! birthday money = plants for front garden as it is still mainly sand but coming on nicely.

    Boys are ok - Will had croup last Friday and was told to take him to a&e at midnight by the healthdirect people after they assessed him as he was having a hard time and the steamy shower room wasn't working - everyone at the hossy was great bar the actualy dr who looked around 3 and i don;t think she knew what croup was! she was listening to his chest saying i can't hear wheezing - and im like - thats because the wheeze doesn't come from the chest in croup - its from below the voice box - she was so dismissive i wanted to slap her - i really didnt choose to drive to a&e on a friday night at midnight at 37 weeks pregnant just for fun - grrrr!

    Anywa, sorry for the me post - i regularly pop in to see how you are all doing - will hopefully get chance to do a proper 'julie-sized' post in the next few days whilst mum looks after the boys - yay!.

    Take care

    Julie xxxx

    Yep, Julie, I foresee lots of little posts from you soon, especially posted in the wee hours! Lucky BB is 24hrs
    Ali - Tori reminds me of my niece who speaks lovely little sentences to mimic her charming older brother and sister, and sometimes her mum...ummm, not so charming, that is!! When she comes out with these things, though, everyone realises just what it is they've been saying in excess!
    We went to Spanish Speaking playgroup for the first time today and it was really nice - I think we'll both sync into it in no time.
    Oscar has become even more of a stunt man, if that were even possible. Still no haircut yet and I can't imagine when I'll have the guts to let anyone near his hair with cutting implements yet! His small fringe cuts don't count, because I didn't consent to those and they didn't cut off a lot anyway as they left the rest of the length and 'style'. He looks like a little surfie, especially with his sunkissed ends!
    Booby boy is even more so lately and fingering his gums a lot...lucky me! At least this time he's not taking it out on my nipples so much.
    I got him one of the Fisher Price bike helmets that comes down to his nape - I didn't like that most of the others were like racing helmets, just covering the top of his head, because this one will double as a horse riding helmet. He LOVES seeing horses and has just loved being on my horse's back for a spin.
    Anyway, I'd better see to him before he gets super destructive here.
    Take care!

    Awww Jules don't feel the pressure to do a mammoth post darl sounds like you've been having a tough time of it! Come in here and moan all you like! You should have read my posts when i was pregnant with Niall... when i wasn't moaning about my itching (I had cholestasis) I was moaning about the heat or Wade or one thing or another!!!

    It is ok to just post short messages... like this one for instance

    ETA: snap Maya!!! (Re: short posts)
