hi girls how are you all? sorry i havent been around to catch up on all of the news. things have been hectic here! we had a pretty average christmas this year. firstly the miscarriage on tuesday resulting in hospital, then being told by my mum christmas eve that we spoilt the kids to much and they are going to end up ungrateful. then my mum having a meltdown on christmas day and me ending up cooking christmas lunch whilst everyone else retreated to their rooms! christmas afternoon i went to hospital as i was in a lot of pain and losing clots. 4 hours later they let me out with some painkillers and antibiotics. apparently its all part of miscarrying, which i found out isnt pleasant and have had a week of cramping, blood loss and losing clots. thankfully it stopped yesterday. i also had a scan yesterday which i think went well, i get my results when i get back to melbourne as they have sent them to my doctor. we also caught up with friends for a couple days down at the beach which was great, until the last day when one of the girls annoyed me a bit because she gave her child a biscuit and when mia asked for one she put them away and said what biscuits? i think that is really mean to do to a kid and felt so sorry for mia. anyway we are back in adelaide now, and have decided to go home to melbourne tomorrow. cant wait! next year i think we will stay in melbourne with our own drama free family. we are thinking now about trying again for another baby. a midwife told me there is really no set time to wait, its mainly when you feel ready. i have to say i really want another baby, but you do have that nagging fear that it could happen again! i think the biggest shock to me is how much it has affected me, even though i wasnt very far along.

so enough of the sooking and whinging .... i really come here to check in and say happy new years girls, may 2009 be full of love and happiness, and happy and thriving kids!
