Rory - I PMed you the details, you have to go there!
Tali - sorry, have to keep calling you that! Don't think of yourself as and old mum, think of yourself as a "hot" mum to a 9 year old! Sunny Brisbane - at least you can enjoy the sunshine! Glad DH managed to get another job, and I'm glad we can squeeze another get together before you go.
Amanda - how is the doula course going? I get the tanties too and really good ones. Sleep overs - how exciting. Chelsea has had a few but only with her cousins, and my best friend. They just love it.
Maya - food was bad at Sky High? Glad you told me, I've been wanting to check it out for ages. Was going to go their atea thing for my birthday in March so glad I didn't!
Ali - shame about the house, but maybe it wasn't meant to be - the world had other things in store for you (like maybe baby #3???). That is so great you got the poo thing sorted out - girls are notorious for having issues with their poo. Would love to meet you in April - at least we have plenty of time to plan.
Jess - hey stranger! Good on you for taking the girl in. At least she has somewhere safe and loving to stay.
We had our first night away from both kids last week - it was HEAVEN!!!! We layed in bed the next morning (at 7am, couldn't sleep in) and just chatted. Something that usually never happens as DH is either at work or the kids want breakfast. I highly recommend it. One night was enough, I missed them and got the biggest bear hug from Marley when I got back, she nearly knocked me over.
Chelsea lost her front tooth on Friday. Its been loose for ages and hanging by a thread. Her and Marley were fighting over something and Marley hit her in the face and out came the tooth - poor Chelsea didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She got her $2 from the tooth fairy so she was happy. She looks so funny with the gap and now the other is loose too.
Marley is still not doing much on the TT front. She was in undies yesterday afternoon. Said she wanted to go, off to the loo, sits for a while, hops off and walks to her loungeroom and within 5 mins, weed on the floor! This happens all the time. I think the whole understanding is totally lost on her at the moment. Hopefully she might be one of these kids that just suddenly "gets it".
Took last week off, so its been 11 days since I last worked. It was great. Back today and it's been pretty good. Not too busy - I have a good group of students this year who can manage and read things on their own!
