Amanda's new avvy is up, yet another master piece Bath well done
Maya things are sounding so wonderful at your place about now, congratulations on sticking to your guns and having the babymoon you wanted...
Mel glad you girls are loving the pool, we have the winkies in swimming class, Kai;s first time she is loving it, for someone who didnt like the water is now fast becomming a water baby like the other 2 have always been... she too has googles boy O boy does she look funny...
well lets see, I found out my sister after 2 yrs of TTC and finding out she has a blocked tube and pcos, that she is UTD she is now 6 weeks, keep telling her to join BB, plus she would be in your belly buddy group Rory... so very happy for her...
we have decided not to TTC anymore, so now I just have to tell my heart that there will be no more... I find myself looking down at my belly every now and then and thinking ther will never again be a life growing inside me, its a very sad thought... but something I will have to learn to live with...
which will be hard when my sisters all start to have there children, but something that was always going to happen seeing as I had mine so young and they have all waited until later in life to start their familys, I guess in someways it good that I wont be in the same state, so that I dont have to be reminded all the time...
Hi girls, thought I would have missed some posts but I haven't missed anything lol!!! Where is everyone????
Chelsea and Marley had their baptism last Sunday and it went beautifully (apart from Marley not letting me take any photos and not happy about having her hair wet!!!). The pool was finished in time and was full of kids Sunday afternoon. Most were in there for over 4 hours, barely getting out to eat! Everyone had a wonderful time which was great and the girls got some amazing presents. They both got a pandora bracelet each, which was amazing. They look so cute and now family can buy extra charms for them for christmas. It was a such a warm day, but the food was excellent (thanks for my BF Mal, who used to be a chef!) and everyone commented to him how beautiful it was. Their outfits were perfect and they both looked adorable. I put some pics on facebook but Marley refused to let me take any photos of her, so I have none with her godparents and I didn't really take any at the party.
My other BF Michelle was here from Brisbane with her DD. It was so much fun having her here, apart from Marley and her DD fighting! They screamed at each other like banshees!!! It was hard not to laugh. We went to the aquarium which was fantastic for anyone that hasn't been before. She went home on Saturday afternoon so the house is a little quiet and I always miss her when she has gone.
Back to work on Tuesday but enjoyed the week off. Weather was fantastic and the pool has been getting a workout. The kids are in it nearly everyday and night - the dusk swims are the best. Pool temp has been 30 nearly every day.
I've been meaning to reply to our thread but end up running out of time...if I can get near the computer at all!
Tallarah has been sick (I have a boo hoo in the Plat thread) and that's why I'm up - she's only just nodded off after being up nearly every hour with her snuffliness.
Mel - I wanted to call you this week for a catch up (while she's still technically a newborn, for newborn cuddles!) but we've been so lurgied that I decided against social visits this week for everyone's sake So, I'll sms you soon to organise something! A week with your GF sounds like it's too short! Aquarium is on my list of things to do with Oscar before too long - he enjoyed the zoo last week before his cold got the better of him and he got too tired for any more. The baptism sounds like it was really lovely - will have to trawl FB for pics cos I can't imagine M all dolled up!
T is asleep and wheezing away (like Mr Snuffleupagus), so I better get back to bed for as long as I have left to catch up on sleep...
Maya - sorry to hear Tallarah has been unwell, how is she today. Nothing worse than hearing a newborn sniffle. When she is better, I want those newborn cuddles before she gets too big!!! The zoo is heaps of fun but can be a long day, the aquarium wasn't too big and so nice on a hot day and plenty to see (and up close too). Miss M scrubbed up well - but the smiles didn't last long. How are you and Oscar feeling? I am home on Monday and Wed after 11am. So please pop down for a visit - tell Oscar to bring his togs!
Rory- congratulations on baking bubba 3 thats fantastic! how are you feeling?
Bath- a very very overdue thank you for my new avater, again its fantastic, and wow i love Maya's new one too!
just quickly as i am headed to bed. Nix had an OT assessment on Monday, still waiting for the full assesment report but he has a "sensory processing disorder" still getting my head around what its all about and reading a book called "The out of sync child"
he isstill waiting for the big diagnostic assesment which i missed a call from today a cancellation spot come up for the 15th dec, i rang back 1 1/2hrs later when i got the msg and they had rung someone else.... i was soo annoyed i didnt get a chance to call back and they had moved on!
still dealing with the day to say struggles with him, however he had his preschool xmas concert today and did SO WELL! he was a "cheeky monkey" and stood on stage and did all the dance moves!!
Hey Nic, glad you are getting some answers with Nixon. I am feeling well, though very tired. My symptoms are stronger with this pg than the last two (boobs tender, nausea is quite common) so some say I might be having a girl this time but I have a fear of twins! (I have heard the symptoms with twins can be quite pronounced). Fingers crossed its a singleton LOL!
Better go - prepping for Ollie's party tomorrow- I am off to make the WW train cake - wish me luck!!
Hey great party Rory!!! My boys' eyes popped out of their heads when they saw the train cake! You did so well catering for all those people! Someone counted 20 kids ALONE and most seemed to have both parents with them... the woodfired vegie and chicken pizzas were GREAT! Mick's done a brilliant job on the garden since i was last around too. Such a cute little bump you have there too m'lady Can I start work on your avvy update???
Sorry i have MIA lately girls. Last two weeks we've had modem issues here at home... kept me off the puter for a few consecutive days... probably a good thing actually.
Maya: how's Tallarah? All better now, I saw on FB that she was still suffering from respiratory infections due to inconsiderate (ill) visitors grrrr! And how are things coming along with your house (not sure if you have mentioned in here in BB... although i have just come straight to this page... haven't read back).
Mel: (and jobsearch update) LOL I could be doing your job at Melbourne Uni!!! The minister at church asked me today if I might be interested in an office admin job at the Theological Dept. the hours are school hours AND there is a direct bus route from Wade's school pretty much to the door of the uni offices!!! My minister also lectures, I believe. I'm not sure i could handle processing accounts... but I'll have a good look at the job descritpion when she obtains one for me. Also being close to Elizabeth Street in the CBD I'll be able to tram it in to have the occassional lunch with DH... that would be great
Better go back and see what I have missed....
Nic: Hmmm... "The Out Of Sync Child" sounds interesting... I know you are probably feeling very worried about this initial diagnosis but I find that ultimately it's good to know... and eventually you settle down and kinda learn to live with it. Bit like my thyroid disease... I was in denial at first, then worried to death... now it's more like "oh well, so be it... it could be worse... so many people live with illness... maybe it won't turn out as bad as I think... we live in fortunate times and a fortunate place here in Australia". So i hope the worry isn't getting to you too much
