HAPPY EASTER ALL!!!
sheree - i have always had a HUGE phobia of spewing so i can count on 1 hand the amount of times i have spewed that i can remember, i am over my phobia though cause i wasn't worried about it at all this time:clap: Gosh lachlan sure did have a rough night, hope those nappies don't get too runny for you, hope Riley doesn't have the same convulsions, at least you know what to expect i guess.
leanne - i had to have a little giggle at you big dilemma:lol: How did your hair stand up to the weather?? i have curls too, not easy to work with thats for sure!
shazz - gosh i wish Archie stopped at one little egg, he would sit there and eat them til he exploded!
I am feeling much better today, but it looks like Jay is coming down with it, he doesn't seem to have the spews though so lucky him, i guess Archie will be next:( We did a trail of little eggs from Archies bedroom to the lounge where his Humpty Dumpty egg was, he was very excited to have lots of "bunny yoyies", i have hidden most of them though......of course i wont eat them.....
We went to Jay's family reunion that they have every Easter, we havent been for a few years due to relationship breakdown between jay and his Dad, his Dad has never met Archie or acknowledged him in any way. So the plan today was that Jay's aunty would text us when jay's dad left so we could go around there and see everyone. Well we thought bugger that, we are family too why should we have to miss out just so that Jay's dad doesn't feel uncomfy. So we rocked around there, and actually enjoyed ourselves. Jay's dad saw Archie for the first time, he said hellp to me but didn't acknowledge jay:rolleyes: Anyway i feel like we have the upper hand now so woohoo for us today!
-
Leanne - let me know how you went with the curls, I am planning on getting a hairdresser to curl my hair for a wedding we are going to in April.
Elissa - gosh poor Jay with his dad and poor Archie for never meeting his grandad. What a horrible situation, glad you didn't hold back and just went, sometimes people need to realise we are not going to tip toe around them just because they want us too! I am about the same with spewing, probably twice self inflicted and the other maybe 3 times from when I was actually sick. So that is why I reackon I don't throw up in the first trimester either, I am just not prone to it - thank god!
I was feeling really ordinary this morning, but this arvo, I feel much much better. Wade is like death warmed up, but he knows he has to soldier on with the business, so he is not complaining.... That would be a first! Guess that is the nature of the beast now with us owning the business, the shop must still open.
-
sheree - yeah, i didn't throw up when i had m/s either, i felt like i needed to for 2 weeks straight but i refused to spew! Jay has been such a sook today and he hasn't even got the spewing, just the runs, what a sook!! I must give him credit though, he said to me this afternoon "you are a real trooper when you get sick, you just soldier on, i just feel like im dying, it must be a male thing" Right on! At least he admits it he he.

We have had one high temp'd sick little one here today. And all I can put it down to is teeth. Those bloomin canine's where are you????????????
I don't think I have heard so much whining from her yet.
Poor little mite, did not even want chocolate - unlike her mother, who consumed way way too much.
Diet starts tomorrow.
Saw some pics of me at the wedding yesterday, hair looked great but I look like a round tomato.
Hope you all had a happy Easter.
:)

Leanne ~ Glad your hair looked great and i'm sure you didn't look like a tomato lol i'm right with you on the diet though i gained 1.2kg this week OMG all that hard work so you and me we will be back on the wagon tomorrow together :hug: hope Katy's teethy pegs show soon
Elissa ~ it is nice when they acknowledge you isn't hope you all get better soon
well ryan refused his day sleep yesterday and OMG talk about pure evil by 6 pm i had to take him for a little drive he was beside himself he couldn't calm down enough to shut his eyes for more then a minute so the drive did the trick and he slept through from 6 30pm ti 7 am this morning i got to finish another assignment last night so that made my day i have another 6 english asssignments to do and 3 maths one i'm well on my way and feeling pretty good about it all i just hope that my marks reflect the work that i have put in
ok BBL off to clean house AGAIN .....
-
leanne - glad your hair turned out great. Hope those pesky canines come through soon, Arch had trouble with those teeth too. you want a dose of our gastro bug? we have both lost a few kilos this weekend!
shazz - well done on the assignments. I hate it when Arch refuses a day sleep, they sure do turn evil by tea time! Glad Ryan slept all night for you though.
We just went to a cafe for lunch with friends, Archie was very tired and ran a riot in there, im sure the waitresses and customers were glad to see the back of us!
-
Heya girlies! Happy Easter!
Sorry I've been missing we've had people here all weekend and sadly i'm glad they came all this way, but I've had enough now.
Elissa great work on the reunnion and I hope your gastro goes soon. If you send it this way like your weather you'll be getting hate mail from me shortly lol.
I'm sure you didn't look like a tomato Leanne! :( Hope Katy feels herself soon again. Darcy had temps this weekend too, but she's got all her teeth so we jsut have to ride it out.
Great work on the assignments Shazz!
Sheree, OMG poor little guy. Hope you feel better soon.
Probably going to be MIA the rest of the week as have to go back full time this week and with the tiredness I already have I can't imagine what the whole week's going to feel like...
-
Still no teeth. Poor little mite was up from 3:30 to 5am this morning screaming which is so unlike her. And snuggly!!! would not let me out of sight. She won't let me near her mouth and I can't see anything unless she is screaming or laughing, so there has been a lot of tickling going on today. :O) Thank goodness for a day off today is all I can say....
AM back to "nicer eating" today. In saying nicer I mean nicer for the figure not necessarily tasting nicer. he he. Trying the core plan on ww this week. I will let you know how it goes.
Tell you a funny thing I did. I have put all the eggs in ziplock bags, all portion sizes with the amount of points written on each one. So instead of eating 20 points worth today, I have had two. I am so proud. Might go make some diet jelly. :O) Sigh
Oh, and you may have noticed even though I said I am staying away from Belly, I just can't. You guys mean too much to me.
Off to make that jelly!
MWAH
-
That's a top idea Leanne. THink of it this way - it will make it last longer....wohhoo I know NOT!
I'm glad you can't keep away.
-
I can't keep away. Just had to do something drastic!:redface:
I just put ALL the left over chocolate in the garage fridge and put a bike padlock on it. Now I CAN'T Get in there. :cryinglaugh:
I will have to tell Mark to take it all to work with him tomorrow, or I might 'break into' the fridge. I am a shocker when it comes to chocolate. A total addict. Probably the reason why it's never usually in the house. :D:D
-
kim - don't worry i will definately not send the gastro to you, im fairly sure you have enough to cope with atm! i think you'll need to eat a few Energiser Batteries to keep you going for a whole week you poor thing.
leanne - yay, im glad you missed us! Great idea putting the eggs in bags with the point totals, well done. i am terrible with chocolate too, i would try my best to break into that fridge, i'd be hopeless. Because we have all been sick there is HEAPS of chocolate in our house and none of us can eat it, its the longest chocolate has ever lasted in our house, it is killing me not being able to eat it
Archie has been a right little ***** today, im fairly sure its because of his reflux atm, he even did a little reflux chuck today which he hasn't done in months and months, can't wait for the drugs to kick back in for him. Im feeling a bit down today, have a counsellor session in the morning though, so all will be good.
-
I am dreading the day lachlan gets his eye teeth, he was bad enuf with his molars.
Chocolate, mmm.... bein sick here that is all we have done, eat chocolate and made us all feel really bad then lol. Lachlan even add an easter egg today with the wrapping on - what a terrible mum I was, knew he had it but just for some reason was not watchin him and didn't think he would eat it. Ewww.... I then showed him how to open one and told him to go throw the alfoil in the bin, hopefully he will understand next time.
Lachlan is back to full spirits, gawd I have my energiser man back, only he is 10 times worse now!!! Not sure where he gets all his energy from.
I feel like I have eaten something to upset my tummy, just been feelin off for the past couple of hours.
Elissa - have you put Archie back on his meds? Or did I read wrong?
Kim - sorry I did read your post, now i have forgotten what you said. Just wanted to say hi thou.
Leanne - stick with your diet, I know you can do it. You will look gr8 in no time at all.
Ohhh my tummy feels so tight today, I am dreading how big I am going to get, feel huge already....

We have been camping all weekend, which was great and Jayden has never slept better! I'm thinking of pitching a tent in the backyard for him LOL. Saturday he decided not to sleep at all and with all the running around on the beach, being in the water and playing with his cousins I wasn't surprised when his eyes were rolling in the back of his head while he was having a bath and then he fell alseep within 2 seconds of putting his head down when I got him back to the tent and laid him down to get dressed....this is about 6.10pm! I forgot to give him his AB's so I sat him up (alseep) told him what I was doing & he opened his mouth swalled and laid back down, without opening his eyes once! He woke at 2.30pm for a bottle (he missed out on dinner) then didn't wake up until nearly 8am.
Chris, my niece and I had stayed up and made bunny paw prints (with talc) outside all our tents and some in the main tent (where we eat/cook etc). My niece (5) & nephew(8) went nuts when they woke up saying how the easter bunny had been, even Jayden was was fascinated by them and pointing at them saying rab-bit.
Jayden gave out all the easter eggs to everyone....and being the mean mummy that I am he wasn't allowed any (not that he even tried to eat one), he got clothes, books, 2 pet goldfish & a Cars cup with a twirly straw so he did well.
WARNING - tragic story
My SIL's niece, we used to see her a fair bit before she moved to Bris late last year, has had the most tragic life! Her mum died when she was 2, her dad couldn't look after her & her older sister so they went to a foster home, the couple they were with split up & the man took the 2 girls, who knows what went on as they grew up but the foster dad is now married to the older sister (ewww) and M was pretty much left to look after herself, at 16 she fell PG and had a little girl about 5 weeks after Jayden was born, the father of the baby turned out to be abusive to M and she had a restraining order against him, although she then fell PG again to him and had another little girl in Nov 07. She has split up from him again and was with someone else when we saw her & the girls at xmas. Now the really tragic part....DD1 collapsed a month ago or so and she was admitted to hospital, they found a blood clot on her brain and she ended up being paralysed from the neck down (no one knows why) and on life support. As they are in Bris now we had no idea of the severity until over the weekend when we were told that M has to make to decision to turn on off the life support. All of that and M is only the tender age of 18! It breaks my heart to see her go through something like this as I couldn't imagine ever having to make that decision. I'm not sure when she willl be doing it, but we will be told once its happened I'm sure.
Sorry it was a bit long but I had to get it out!
I'll come back for personals....I hope everyone had a great easter!
-
Omg what a terrible story Tania and sometimes we think we have it bad. Sometimes we all have to stop and think huh! So is there no way she will come out of it? Glad you had a nice easter, we spent it - SICK - all of us, down like a sac of potatoes.
Well everyone I have had NIL sleep last night. Have you ever laid there all night trying your hardest to go to sleep and nothing!!! I wouldn't even say I am as sick as I was 3 weeks ago, and this is the 2nd night running, although I did get a few hours the night before. Why can't I sleep??? I mean I normally am a shocking sleeper and when sick I am worse, but not this bad! I am so so tired today, deleriously tired. I am really seriously when I say I had no sleep, not even a wink, I was getting so infuriated.
-
sheree - i have just eaten a couple of little eggs today, finally feel well enough, LOL at Lachlan eating the foil. Hope you feel better today. Gosh sheree you must be feeling awful after no sleep at all, did you try drinking chamomile tea? that used to work for me if i had trouble getting to sleep, maybe a nice warm bath then a chamomile tea? But i guess the tea before bed might make you pee all night....
tania - sounds like you all had a wonderful Easter, my dad used to do the talc bunny footprints too was so exciting. Sorry to hear about your poor SIL's neice, how terrible.
So far so good, Archie hasn't come down with the gastro yet. We will probably be staying at my sisters place for a few nights while jay paints the house so might not be on here for a while, i think my sister's bf has the internet though hopefully.
-
Quiet day today!
Sheree: I don't know all the details of the situation but from what I have been told there is no way she will survive...I so hope I am wrong! It has just come out that M may have been taking drugs (not sure what) while she was pregnant which could be the cause, they are testing the baby too now. Even so no one deserves to lose their child. Have you had more sleep now? I should be trying to get an early night but things to do unfortunately.
Elissa: Fingers crossed Archie doesn't get gastro! Jayden's never had it, I don't think I have either really....just a bug that has lasted no more than a morning or afternoon.
Kim: How are you holding up with baby #2? I had forgotten how tired I got too....Now I'm remembering how sore my hips had gotten with Jayden, I could barely walk last Thursday they were so sore....still loving every minute of it though.
Leanne: I hope Katy is feeling better!
Jayden cried like nothing else this morning when I dropped him off at day care, its a new carer that he went to while SIL was away and I decided to keep him there 1 day a week (SIL is a bit upset over it). He was up at 4am running into my room crying this morning, so I think he just had a rough night and was still a bit tired when we got there, he was fine within 5mins of me leaving.....Normally it doesn't bother me but with the stuff going on with SIL's niece it got to me a little.
Anyway I better check on my little cherub, he asked for a bottle at 8pm (unheard of from him) so I better make sure he didn't sneak into my room with it.

Sorry no personals girls for the moment.
I am so f'n annoyed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE HAVE JUST HAD ANOTHER MAJOR DRAMA AT THE SHOP!!!!!!!!!!!! When do we get a break.........
The maintenance crew in town have been fixing our roof from the storm last October (where our roof leaked) for the last month or two, and we just had a storm or should I just say heavy rain come thru here and the water is pouring thru our roof!!!!!! No other shops were affected except ours. Last time we claimed on our insurance up to $100000 in loss of stock and fixtures, this time we won't be making a claim on our insurance let me tell you.... But it is not only the loss of stock, it is the clean up and the re-ordering of stock - SO ANNOYING. Like we have all the time in the world Grrrrrr.......... Wade is down at the shop still cleaning up with our Junior, with the maintenance crew and some staff from other shops are giving us a hand. Just when I hired a cleaner to come into our shop last weekend and give it all the once over, what a waste of time. Grrrr.......
-
Piggin out on a pack of marshmallows here.... Just stresses me so badly, we have had so many problems with our business since we got here, it is like 2 steps 4ward and 10 steps back! So not only am I this mother/housekeeper/paperwork girl for shop/orderer for shop, now I have to help clean up and re-order new stock and get someone to pay for it. All dramas I don't need right now. Oh and I am packing up house to move and we are going away for nearly a month. I wish there were 10 thousand hours in a day and I had more arms and legs! I have been crying all night. Guess it is the pregnancy hormones. Mr Jo cool is totally fine about it and says s*@t happens. Grrrr..... Is anything ever going to go right.
Anyway I am going to be so busy over the next couple of months, as I go away next week, and move when we get back at the end of april, so this little time that I have before we go I am going to have to put into the business again and look after an active toddler. Wish me luck, may not be around for a while. Take care everyone.
