Hi everyone, just popping myhead around the corner and saying hello- I have been sooooooooo busy of late- still trying to get my head around mum of 2, work and all the stuff that goes along with general life as well, but you get that.
All is well here, the kids are both doing superbly- Liam is close to walking, he is up to about 7 or 8 steps in a row now, and Tori is just Tori, being 2 and trying to assert herself, and just having some of the most wonderful conversations, her new thing is to say "I love you all the stars in sky", because every night when she goes to bed I tell her I love her as much as all the stars in the sky- she is just tooooooooooooooooooooo cute. She has her first birthday party at a play centre today and is super excited!!!

I hope everyone is well, and happy! Congrats to Amanda on the arrival of her little man, makes me cluck cluck cluck!

Hi girls, like Ali just popping my head in between kid-wrangles Congrats to Amanda - like Ali it makes me clucky, but I will have to wait til my turn (hopefully) in Feb next year.

Better go - am using MIL's PC and she has one of those annoying microsoft split keyboards which is doing my head in LOL!!!

LOL We used to have one of those keyboards Rory... you eventually get used to it.

Well I'm at the local library! having a bit of 'me time'. Lovely and quiet here and a huge big monitor!

Went to the baby and child expo yesterday... met lots of BB members. It was a good day. I just took Wade. There was a free Dorothy the Dinosaur concert and lots of activites forhim... and then icecream with all the gang at the Casino. About 20 of us met up in all. I met Maz, Raven, Nai, RayRay, and Nelle (to name a few of the old-timer BB members). Wade took some group photos (his services as a photographer are becoming very handy!) and I'll post the piccys up soon.

Love to all

Bummer would have loved to have gone Bath but we took the boys down to Warragul to visit the in-laws yesterday. Just got back now - have a shocking case of hayfever - this is the first spring I haven't been pg or BF in 4 years and boy do I feel the lack of hormones to ward off the symptoms (pharmacist told me that female hormones act as steriods to minimise hayfever effects - cool, huh?)

*Knock Knock* Does anyone remember me???

I am so very sorry I have neglected my Junies for so long, but I was just talking to Maya on FB, so I thought I would pop in here and say hi!

Well we have been extremely busy over the past couple of months. James quit his job at the servo after not getting enough hours and some other stuff which incidently happened to me. I fell over at the servo, injuring my knee quite badly ( I was on crutches for 10 weeks!). Everyone treated James like **** after reporting the accident and he started getting less and less hours so he thought he would leave. But things are looking up. James put his name down for the new McDonalds that is openening and he got a fulltime job, so in December he'll be working again!
The kids are doing really well! Pat is such a little independent soul these days, he rides his little tricycle through the house (yes we don't believe in leaving it outside, no matter how many times Mummy says NO!) feeding his new "tooks" and collecting the single egg we get every 2nd day! He has also started the "why" stage! and the "wuv ya very much" stage of his development...
He is such a joy to be around though! The kids adore him and he and Bella are the best of friends....sometimes!!! LOL
Better head off as I have to wash the kids school clothes! Love yas!

HI Ladies
a quick hello from me also - as long as all are asleep - which doesn't happen very often and doesn't last very long.
Happy belated birthday to tyron - his photos are lovely on FB, and happy belated anniversery to Mel - sounds like you had an awsome day!

Mostly ok here - Isla is an angel and sleeps 6-8 hours a night, she is a lovely smiley girl who is growing up so fast - she is only just 2 months and is now in 3-6 months clothes! Ive got so many summer clothes for he its just rude! she could wear a different item every day fo rthe next 6 months and still not get through everything - both mum and me went abit mad after 2 blue ones! We got some lovely pressies too so shes starting wearing them.

The boys are the otherhand are nightmares. their behaviour is attrocious and i get quite embarrassed when i take them out - ive ended up with the brats i always criticised (silently) other people had before kids! Oscar just doesn't listen to anything i say and William is so stroppy and rude its just not funny - well sometimes it is but he makes me cry more than laugh. I need to get some help with them soon as they are really getting me down. I went to Ngala (WA parenting advise place) in June about Oscar and i rang them yesterday but they close your file after a few months so i would have to start again by ringing their helpline and i just couldn't do that. maybe later. I do know some Ngala ladies near where i live so i may try and talk to them but its embarrasing when you know them already.
Anyway, enough whinging and me posting, ought to get on with doing stuff while there is a microsecond of peace in the house.
Take care an love to my Junies

Julie your not alone we all go though this stage in life I lost count the amount of times I thought to myself " I have the most misbehaving children in the world!!! " Or " what kind of animals are you as they are human "....

Dont be imbarassed by them just carry on the best you can as though they arent tearing though the shops and looking under all the dress's of maniquen's ( sp?) and some that might not have been , Just think to yourself that those people who are looking are one of two thing the " HAVE NOTS " Thoses who have NOT yet had the joys of children or have NOT yet had toddlers/children and only have there sweet NOT yet moving babiesor they are " BEEN THERE DONE THAT's and they are proble looking and thinking should I go over and help her out or would I get my head bitten off, or thinking " Thank God mine are in SCHOOL.... So please please please dont think it just you... They are just been kids this is what kids do and now that they know that mum is busy or that mum wouldnt dare do anything in fount of people they will test you every chance they get.... Chin up I hope you feel better about the little mites soon...


Hey Jess good to hear from you again sounds like life is getting better for you...

well BHL was driving me nut the last few days ( doesnt help I have a cold so wasnt up to to much DTD while he is ALWAYS ready and feels annoyed that I am not when he only has 5 days home lol too bad for him.... Anyway he is now Ummming and Arrring about when he actully wants to leave Melb we had decided on the end of Jan but now he is unsure if we will have the money by then and wants to wait until April.... otherwise we might have to take out a loan just to make sure we have enough $$$ when its needed... I dont see the deference whats 2 mths going to do... Not much... Anyway he decided that End of March start of April would be better, so while driving him to the train station I told him I would have to re-enrol the kids as I told the school last week that would be finishing up at the end of the year, and he told me not to do that yet he want to see what happens in the time he is away... So now I dont know if I am Arther or Martha... So I guess I will leave it as it is for now and see what he wants to do when he is home in two weeks.... Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Men cant live with them cant live without them!!!!
