thanks Nic Bec and Luey, i also hope for a full nights sleep but given that James also received 2 new teeth for his birthday i doubt we will be getting that !
Happy Birthday James for yesterday
Sorry Mel that I missed James' Birthday but it was a pretty hectic day.
I have made an appointment for Riley to see a pschyologist to have him assessed for his speech. I was getting ready to go to the appointment (I had to go and see the pschyologist first and then she wanted to see Riley) when Riley's preschool rang to say that Riley had an accident and hit is head on a corner of a cupboard and its was bleeding so I palm Isabella off to the neighbours (she was going there anyway), rang and cancel the appointment. I raced done to the preschool and straight to the doctors. Thank goodness Riley didn't need stitches.
Riley is going to have a nice shinner!!!
I had better go, Riley is crying and I don't want him to wake Isabella as there rooms are next to each other.
I will pop back later and give you and an update on Isabella
Take Care
JO
Oh no Jo poor riley! Thank goodness he didn't need stitches but I'm sure he has a lovely shiner! Hope his appoinmtent goes well too when you can reschedule!!
Mel, I hope James enjoyed his day
Hayley, Happy Birthday to Nate too....I knew he was very close to Ari!
What are you all getting the kids for their 1st birthdays?? I'm struggling to think of something for Jake! He uses all the kids toys, and they have enough for a small army....no joke! He needs a few clothes etc but I want something for HIM. I just don't know what!!
I forgot to tell you all too, we are having issues here *sigh*. No house for us at the moment as DH's boss has decided he wants to terminate his apprenticeship contract. DH isn't going to countersign that....so he either has to find somewhere for him to finish his apprenticeship or they may be able to rush him through his last 6 weeks of TAFE, and then his boss can sign him off as competent on the job meaning he finishes sooner. Either way it means things are uncertain at the moment, not a good time to buy, even if we could. It also looks as though we could be moving to the NW, where the IL's are, 3 hrs from here. Because it's DH's hometown he has a lot more contacts and at the moment has at least three job opportunities to chase up if need be. Oh and also behind the possibility of us moving is the fact that the owners of our house want to move back in by next February. makes me sad as this is my home now, we've been here the longest we've been anywhere and it's the only house they kids really know of.
Anyway, totally OT, just trying to get the thread going again I know we are all busy too
Mel - Happy belated birthday for James - I'm so sorry I'm late in my well wishes . Things have been pretty mad here the past few days, but no excuses. Hope James had a good birthday, and will have a terrific party on Sunday. How's he going with his latest teething efforts? And how has Emily been lately?
Jo - How is Riley feeling ... did he end up getting a shiner? Poor little fella. Hope all's well with Isabella.
Bec - That's no good about your house. about that and also your DH's work situation - a real sign of the times, unfortunately, isn't it. Not that that's any consolation. Here's hoping you can stay where you are and your DH can get his apprenticeship signed off. We bought Cam a tonka truck walker/ride-on thingame. Hopefully he'll get use out of it (and enjoy playing with it) for a few months or longer ...
Nic - Soooo true re: us 12 months ago. This time last year (as in Friday 14th, 08) I'd done a mega day's housework and was totally pooped by 7.30pm. If only I'd known my waters would break just 24 hours later ...
We've got Cam's birthday party tomorrow. DH and I decided on a sausage sizzle, but naturally I ended up making zucchini slice and sausage rolls, plus an assortment of finger-food sweet-type things. I say "naturally" cos DH reckons I always go "above and beyond" what I originally say I'm going to do. Irritates him no end, at times . I'm making a fish for his birthday cake - it'll be chocolate butter cake with blue icing (which could prove an interesting flavour combo .... maybe). Will email round some pix by week's end.
It was a good idea pulling up our baby list Bec, but it makes me wonder where all our buddies have gone. I'm sure I put deodorant on this morning! If any absent buddies are reading this, come back and say hello, let us know how you and your bubbas are going! Even if it's a three-line post ... we'd love to hear from you .
Happy birthday to all our little piscean and aries rats! Like me, you fellow mums probably find it hard to believe how fast our beautiful, tiny newborns have turned into beautiful and mobile little boys and girls. Sigh ....
Happy Birthday Cam and Ari ! and Andie and Hayley i hope you have a great day with your little men !
and i hope the parties were great on the weekend
James's party yesterday was great, although im pretty exhausted this morning, he slept less than an hour all day so will probably be a tired boy today ! (heres hoping anyway)
