Lots of lurkers but no posters hey? Get your scrawny butts in here.lol
Well im enjoying a midori and im waiting for my mum to pick me up to go to the casino. Aaron is doing babysitting duties and watching his beloved hawks at the same time!
Ruby threw such big patties at the shop today. Seems its getting to hard to go out. In the end i just had to put her in the trolley and let her chuck a wack. I was out of there quick smart as i hate other people looking at you as if you can control your kids. Oh well.

hi all, well i am just doing a bit of the nappy hunt.. wowo some of them are very hard indeed!!!!
hope that you are all well

xoxo me

Annie, are you a cloth nappy user? Cos I know some of the clues would be just so hard if you weren't familiar with some of the terms...let us know if we can help in a non cheaty way. I remember my first hunt there was a clue like, where I keep my loose change and shopping lists or something - the answer was to go to the Pocket nappy section of the store, but I didn't know what a Pocket nappy was back then!

Home alone again tonight, Ran's cousin's birthday party, but I'm not making the hour long trip and back again to sit on a camping chair and pretend to be comfy and awake. Pity, cos she's a nice chick, and married to Ran's best friend.
So on the couch, no tim tams right now, just finished some frozen blueberries, drinking raspberry leaf tea and I doooo have a packet of yummy jubes in case I feel like them.

Hope you're having a great and lucky time tonight Caddie. You sound really content now that you're getting out a bit more - cabin fever really can suck the joy out of us can't it. I need to remember to get out when I can, even if it's just by myself to get bread and milk (and more tim tams and blueberries).

Hope everyone else is enjoying their Saturday nights!

hey Nelle, so far i have found 9 !!! i use both cloth and sposies, depends on my day and mood!

how u going with the hunt!

[Nelle]

I'm going through a bit of a Baby Carrier phase too, so I'm trying to juggle obsessions. I've found 3 so far, but I'll do some more looking soon.

[ShootingStar]

Chrissy.. how are you going with your pregnancy? Hows little Liam? Do you have to do any more tests or is it just wait and see now? Oh really? thats great the boy receipe worked for you! I think its pretty interesting. The girl one worked for my sister as well!

Meg.. hows J going? Hope the mylanta helped.

Shell.. im thinking the same, the reason shes not so active and well kicking so hard is shes a little dainty princess hehe. Least she'll have her big bro Jesse to stick up for her, dont get in his way!

Belle.. how are you feeling? Hope you and Julia are getting better.

Caddie.. oh i hear you on tanties! Must be the phase theyre all going through at the moment! Had the biggest ones with Jesse this arvo at his mate's birthday party. It was WAY over tired but would just drop to the floor and chuck a wobbly when he wasnt allowed to touch something or go somewhere. Oh the joys

Thanks again for all the congrats. Heres hoping the guy was right! Am thinking of having another scan come 27 or so weeks just to make sure.

Good luck with the Nappy Hunt ladies!
That drove me insain last year, so glad im banned for life haha stops any temptation of putting myself through that torture again

[~Flossie~]

hope that you all have a lovely sunday xoxoox

[Cougar]

Happy birthday Belle!

Ho to everyone else.`1

Oh - and I am sure that you have all seen this before, but I always find it fascinating the read.q





Who holds the world record for having the most number of children?

The world record for having the most number of children officially recorded is 69 by the first of two wives of Feodor Vassilyev (1707-1782), a peasant from Shuya, 150 miles east of Moscow. In 27 confinements, she gave birth to 16 pairs of twins, seven sets of triplets and four sets of quadruplets. The children were born between 1725-1765.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BELLE!

I hope you were spoilt rotten today, and got to relax.

Nothing much happening today. I think Nina is coming down with something. She's off her food, and quite irritable at times.

meg - hopefully the conjunctivitis clears up soon.

[ShootingStar]

Just popped in to say

BELLE!!!!
Hope you had a great day!

[shellbell3]

Happy Birthday Belle!!!
Hope you had a great day and got spoilt!

Meg, I have heard that one but always find it interesting, bloody hell though imagine going thru labour that many times, you'd think somewhere along the way they'd just start to drop out themselves! Poor J with the conjunctivitis, I hate when I get it.

Not much going on here, nothing exciting anyways!

[~Flossie~]

annie - it's great to hear that you're all going so well. How is the job share going?

I'm off to bed. Got a busy day tomorrow. Just uploaded another belly pic, to compare it to last week. And I think I've grown heaps. I'd really like it if Emily would stop growing now. Why oh why can't I have a nice little compact belly like Nessa !!
