I didn't get the notification for a new thread! It's a much cooler morning today thankfully. I've got the doors open for some fresh air. We've got an aircon but the house just feels stuffy having all the doors closed for a couple of days.
We had a good weekend chilling out. I felt really bad yesterday as we sat out and let Louis play in his pool - t-shirt, hat and sunscreen on and only for about 30min and when we came in and took his t-shirt off he had little red arms! I've checked today and he's just got a little tan so he didn't burn as such - hopefully he'll have my skin because it takes heaps for me to get burnt! I felt like a bad mummy though as I thought he was really burnt. All ok though.
The little terror I can only assume is going through a growth spurt? or maybe having Daddy around for the weekend through him out. He's been eating non-stop - so much - and not wanting to go to sleep at night and getting up earlier - he also only had a reasonably short sleep yesterday.
He was up at 6.50am this morning (after going to bed after 8pm last night!) so he's been back in bed for an hour - he was so grizzly I just new he was overtired. I've got to finishe my shopping today as well so I wanted him to get a good sleep in before we go.
Had a rubbish phone call from my mum yesterday morning ranting and raving because we all decided not to do Kris Kringle for the adults this year - everyone was just chipping in for a big lunch and buying for the kids. So she's told everyone not that she wants Kris Kringle because she doesn't want to wake up on christmas day without a present (wtf?) I told her dh and I won't be in it because we don't need a gift voucher from someone that they were made to buy iykwim? but I will buy her a present so she doesn't miss out. She told me that I don't know the meaning of xmas and that I was materialisti - WTF????? I couldn't believe it - I said I thought the meaning of christmas was to get together with your family and enjoy each others company, have a good feed - and mainly it's santa for the kids etc. Anyway...after a big rant I told her I didn't need validation from my family or dh for that matter with a present for xmas...thats not what its about for me....So looks like I'm in for a pleasant xmas!! hehe. I'm going to get her a little gift that basically says chill the f out! hehehe. (sorry for the language) I got off the phone and I was so angry and I got all upset - poor dh didn't know what to do - I'm so over emotional with this p/g! Sorry for the rant guys....sometimes good to get it all out.....
Tracey - Hope you had fun at the xmas party!! Sounds like Jordan had a great time in his wading pool - If I had dogs I would have let them in as well! hehe.
Melissa - How clever is Ben getting promoted! Woohoo!
Nikki - Hope you had a great day at the beach!! It would have been so hot! It got to over 42 degrees in Melb yesterday!! Hope you didn't get burnt!
