Oh...i posted a couple of days ago but its not here...bummer

kim - i agree i think a card would be a lovely idea just make sure you acknowledge the father too. i had a giggle at Darcy running in the sprinklers! you must be so excited to come home next month.

leanne - big hugs to you, i hope you feel a bit better after breaking down, sometimes a breakdown is just what we need to release all our stress and emotion.

tania - yep the walks are doing me wonders, it is reat to know wewont have spiders all Summer, not looking forward to recieving thebill though. thanks for the luck tomorrow!

sara - you'll be fine dont stress, try not to put too much pressure on passing, whats the worst that can happen if you don't pass? you will be disappointed but you can always try again next year. Anyway im sure you'll pass.

christine - hope the antibiotics work well for you.

Archie has been staying up at night til 10pm the last couple of nights!! Think it his teeth mucking him up. Ran into my best friend from high school yesterday, turns out she has a 12 month old son and lives round the corner from my mum! It was so great to catch up with her she came over for the afternoon, it was so strange us sitting there with babies. We just talked and talked just like we hadn't ever been apart, i feel so great to have finally found a friend who has a baby, i think it is gonna make a big difference to the troubles i am having atm. Another bonus is i have someone to give all Archie's hand-me-downs too, instead of hoarding them all in his room.

i am hanging out to get a dog, we had a much adored mini poodle before we had Archie, but he got run over by a car just after Arch was born and we haven't had a dog since as im not too keen on going through the puupy stage again while Archie is so young. Anyway i found a website for a guy who lives just out of Adelaide who runs a kennel breeding dogs and he has several 6 year old female dogs who have retired from breeding and are looking for new homes. i am thining that one of these dogs might be the perfect solution for us. i ahve just sent the guy an email asking if he thinks any of his dogs would suit us. he is giving them away but you have to pay $200 to have the de-sexed before you get the dog, then there is the cost of actually picking the dog up, over $200 to fly it here......im not gonna rush into anything but i would love a little furry companion, especially for when DH is working big shifts.
