Well it seems im doing something right with the girls....their check up went really well! CHN was impressed with how far Jasmine has progressed in the last 6 months, and loves how advanced Chelsea is and amazed how active and how much a chatterboc she is....so i say thats thumbs up all round!!
New stats (19/11/08)
Chelsea - 24 months Weight: 13kg Length: 86cm HC: 46cm
Jasmine - 12 months Weight: 11kg (OMG....and thats just from milk and the last 4 weeks small things like yoghurt, jelly, custard...not 'real' solids yet) Length: 78cm HC: 45.5cm
So the difference between C and J: Weight: 2kg Length: 8cm HC: .5cm

oh Tara, i'm glad your dh is ok! no wonder you coudln't sleep until he got home.
have we got any brissy people? is gold coast close to brissy?
will vicky be in affected areas?
Us: apart from damm vandals who have cost us $1,000 in three weeks, and nasty neighbour making threats, we are ok. bilby went to Gymbaroo today again and loved it, although 3.5 yo boy with autism, who doesn't know his own strength, hurt her arm, literally dragging her around by her arm, until i saw it and yelled STOP, sprinted to scoop her up and rescue her (he towers over her). i'm not sure he realised what he was doing, but she was so upset, she clung to me for rest of session. The boy reacts to certain foods, his mum has him on Failsafe, but yesterday, someone gave him a food he shouldn't have, and his behaviour was all over the place, as a result. His poor mum was so embarrassed.
i am finally getting bilby's photos done on Sunday - luckily i paid for it BEFORE second vandalism attack, otherwise i might have called it off. (insurance excess x 2 + $1,000 that we didn't expect). I organised a photographer so it will happen this time. am all ready with denim shorts and white tops for bilbs as i've been told is a good place to start. botanic gardens is where they will be done.
Family Assistance Office want the entire sum they gave me (over five grand), for 06/07 BACK, because dh hasn't put in a tax return for that year yet. He has a list of excuses a mile long for why it isn't done. i dont' know what i can say to get him to do it. I can't do it, or ask an accountant to do it, cos i don't have the group certificate and superannuation documents for that year. otherwise, i would just take those thigns to the nearest accoutnatnt and just say Please do this pronto to get me out of trouble with centrelink etc. and pay for it to be done. This huge debt is in MY name, because of something dh did not do. he's supposedly been wroking on his tax for eight months now!!!
Tara mate if you need to phone or vent or scream or cry its okay. I hope you are okay. I found the first year with Jovie to be really hard. Having two.
We still own our house in Brissy.... I wonder if its still okay...
Gigi....i dont understand why your the one copping it when its DH that hasnt done the return....hmm but then again i know Centrelink is in my name....so i guess the burden falls to me if we over estimate and have to pay them money back too. Far out babe...id be doing what Nicola said, speak to Centrelink and see how they can help....how do they expect YOU to pay somethign back if you dont work and earn the money (is DH working...did he get that job ages back?).
