    I bet Erin is on it more than me when we get one! One of the mums at school got her DH one for Father's day.
    DH got a Mario and Sonic Olympic game on sat for his birthday, he and my brother were playing it and they both worked up a sweat LOL
    I am now on 3 weeks holidays!!!!! So happy even though I didn't get to sleep in cause DH has a course so is leaving at 7.15am instead of 5.20am! (He's happy about the sleep in but not about the commute considering we live diagonally across the road from his work)
    I am really looking forward to spending some time one to one with Riley this week before the school holidays start, and also Jess cause she has only 2 exams this week, then she starts Yr 12 next term eeekkk where did that time go????
    Sheree- Riley is such a cutie in that photo, so glad you have an easy one this time round LOL
    Leanne- how is the studying going? When do you open?
    Kim- hopefully council has sorted their stuff out and you can get the keys, post some photos so we can see the new house. You must be so excited, will you be able to move in straight away?
    Shazz- glad your studying is going well too, how is the teenage girl thing going for you? Not fun is it???
    Elissa- I am crossing my fingers for you with TTC, atm it feels like EVERYONE around me is getting pg so I have a good feeling about you!
    Hello to anyone I may have missed, have a wonderful day, I am off to do some shopping and coffee with a friend YAY

    Sheree: I'm trying to convince Chris to get a Wii too but he wants an Xbox 360 or something, not that he will play it for more than a week!

    DH loves the wii Tania, an Xbox is pretty similar to a playstation whereas the wii is something really different, tell him there's boxing! D likes that one!

    Oh Shazz, hope everything is OK. You will do fantastically. Hang in there and when it seems too much, just remember why you started.

    I'll let you know how I go.

    shazz - congrats on the scholarship, thats awesome! Sorry you are feeling so busy and stressed that you need a break.

    Sheree - I am so jealous of Lachlan being totally TT and so easy. Arch can go all day without a nappy, but if he is really tired int he afternoon he begs for a nappy, and he refuses to do poo in the toilet......think it'll be a long road. Arch has given up his day sleep too, much to my disgust. He is so tired in the arvos, but on the upside he sleeps through 13 hours a night, albeit in my bed...woohoo on your magic bub sleeping so well!

    kim - glad to see your bub is still in there cooking away, my sis and I have been attending antenatal classes and I always wonder how you are going.

    leanne - 5 weeks preggers, hey!! Still so thrilled for you! I am sure you will get through your course fine, make a list of the assigments you need to get finished and cross tem off 1 by1, that helps me stress less when studying.

    I haven't been around for a while, dont have the internet any more Jay got custody of that LOL. Have been out on my own for over a week now and loving it! I am such a happier and more outgoing person, and Archie is so well behaved since we moved too, he must pick up on my vibes more than i thought.

    I ma really peeved though, gees I find i get treated as a 2nd class citizen now that I am a single mum on Centrelink payments!! I need a car, but of course no one will will give me a loan even for the smallest amount, because I dont work, I need a goddamn car people!! I CAN afford it! SIck of people looking down their nose at me, but at the same time I am so incredibly proud of myself for being so strong and doing everything for myself.

    As for me and Jay.....that is REALLY confusing! On the one hand I miss him for his good points, I only miss him at night though when Arch is in bed...on the other hand I feel so much more positive and am a much nicer person when he is gone. He came back this morning and already I am being a cynical biatch. I love him, but i really feel im better off without him. I think that if we never had Archie, we would be deliriously happy together, but he has been such ahuge disappointment to me since Archie's birth...anyway blah blah blah I could probably go on for days and bore you all to death!

    I am trying to take things with me and jay 1 day at a time, its very hard going adn emotional though.

    Hve missed you guys, will pop in again next week.

    Hi girls!

    Just popping in to wish Shazz all the best! I will probably be a bit the same now that I have got into Uni!

    For those of you who haven't heard.....I found out yesterday that I got into Bachelor of Midwifery in Brisbane.

    I will keep in touch through FB aswell.

    I will still pop in every now and then though!

    I would also love to catch up with any of you who live in or close by to Brisbane.

    Brent and I are flying down to Brisbane tonight to look at houses and get him registered with all the labour hire places.

    Hopefully we will be all moved down there around the 11th or 12th of Feb. Fingers crossed for a smooth move!

    We keep you all posted.

    Talk soon!

    Love and Kisses to you all....

    xxoo

    Totally understandable Leanne...I had 2 scans this time pre 12 weeks.
    I've had 2 since 20 weeks 2 which was nice.

    Sara, that's top news mate, so glad to hear.

    Sheree, long time no see. Glad to hear Riley is well. Darcy's being attrocious ATM too so I guess it must be an age thing?

    We had a growth scan last Thursday, apparently I've got a big one in there....measured 37 weeks at 34...woohoo not! He has a huge head and already weighs 3kgs...Darcy only weighed that a birth...guess he's going to take after his Dad....

    This heat is unbearable - well if you're out in it. Our AC bill is going to be ginormous!
