How r u all?? Well moving to mackay was the worst thing we ever did cause DH has been made redundant this week cause of this stupid financial crisis that is going on. We decided about 2 months ago that we would move back to Brisbane at the end of this month to make sure this didn't happen but they bet us to it!! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...................So now we have to break our lease here at this house and then re-rent in Brisbane which won't be hard cause my mum is a property manager but it is just the hassle of it all!! The house is all packed up besides the kitchen and our clothes, we I have packed most our clothes and I have just left out the weekly essentials with a few extras. DH is still working for his boss but now in the workshop but down to $30 per hour instead of $50 per hour!! Still money coming in so now so bad I suppose, but it doesn't help with rent of $550 per week!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh so stressful!! Does help my new high blood pressure that I have. Okay enough about me, now to some personals.....
TRISH - So happy you have a pink bundle on the way.....DH must have a knack for picking these things cause this is the 3rd one he has got correct!! Have you gone out and bought a whole lot of pink stuff yet??
JULIA - Have a fantastic time in Singapore....God what I would do to go to Singapore!!
TIFF - Tiera broke the plasma!! Ohhhh no....how much did that cost you too fix??!! I know what you mean about one thing after another....just seems to never end!!
AMBER - Hope ur comp is fixed soon!! When do you have your first scan??
MO - Cookie is so cute.....How is M going with all you attention on someone else??
Well that is all I can remember for now....Sorry for the vent ladies!!
Trish- congratulations on finding out you are baking a princess that is SO fantastic!!! glad all went well and she is nice and active for you!!
i know my MIL would go silly if we ever had a girl, cause we are her last chance, her DD1 cannot have children and DD2 has 2 boys and is done. so she had 4 grandsons i'd almost go as far to say if we had another & it was not a girl she'd be dissapointed.
Ty had another acco a few days ago. Pulled out tall standing mirror down ontop of himself. Got a huge shiner on his forehead but is so so lucky it wasnt worse. i thought he broke his hand cause it was squashed under when it fell. How on earth the glass or mirro didnt smash is a miracle and could have been fatal if it had. If he had of been 5cm to the right it would have fell directly on him and for certain would have knocked him out.
needless to say the mirror has been moved from the hall to our bedroom and the door is kept SHUT!
Monkey - sorry to hear about your dramas *hugs*. My DH was made redundant in December - Christmas Eve! It is not nice, and the payout doesn't go far. Perhaps there might be some additional compensation due to the extent of you moving? Might we worth talking to someone?
Nickers - kids can get up to such mischief can't they? I am glad he got away with just a shiner.
As for us, not much going on. Having a good weekend tho so far, had another look at "our block" that we want to put an offer in on and we still like it. Fingers crossed in the next few weeks we will be block owners...
DRAGONBUB - DH is going back to his old job cause they haven't replaced him as yet and have offered a pay rise which is even better. He worked/s for Star Track Express and they have a depot here in Mackay and they have a truck that hhas to go back to Brisbane for auction so DH is driving it back for FREE and FREE fuel too!! Better then paying $2k like we payed to get here.
Amelia that's great it wont cost you anything to move back home.
DB- Hope you get the block of land you want, sounds like a great area to raise your children.
Nic- So glad Ty wasn't seriously hurt. Must of been so scary for you.
Tiff-Not long till May now. Glad things are getting better for you now & poor Tiera cutting all those teeth so quickly.
Amber-How are going? I've missed you & hope now your comp is back you'll be posting more
Trish-How are things going with you?
Kaz-I hope you had a great birthday & the kids & Bruno spoiled you rotten!
Julia-How was your trip?
Saffi-Hope you, L & your little bundle are doing well. Have you got a named picked out yet?
Kellie & Willow hope you are your little ones are doing well.
AFU-Maddi is still giving us attitude but i think the necklace is helping her. She's actually calmed down a bit since she started wearing it.
Cookie is doing really well, she's gained 450g since leaving hossy, So i must be doing everything right with the b/fing!
Hi all.....BACK! (Mo you're really onto it!) Doesn't look like there's much to catch up on....COME ON GIRLIES!! Come back and spill your guts'! I'll BBL once my ten tonne of washing is finished with!
Well what a crappy week and its not ending I seem to be stuck in a big black sleepless hole that is not getting any better! Myles is feral, I cant seem to teach him to sleep all night, especially in a gentle way cause we dont do controlled crying or tough love, but its driving me insane! It makes me look like a bad mum and that letting your kid scream is the only way! I am desperate!
so I am putting in my order now for bub 2 to be a great sleeper! And an angel! What do you think my chances are hahaha! ZERO! lol!
Sorry for the downer am so over it sad lonely and defeated
Big hugs Amber. You sound exhausted you poor thing . I hope Myles settles down at night for you soon. How are you putting him down at night atm (eg. what's your usual routine)? What normally gets him to sleep? I'll try to put my head together with yours and try and find a lovely gentle way to settle him that works for you both.
Julia - I love your new ticker pic of Max, he's so cute!
Mo - WTG on Cookie's weight gain! You are doing a brilliant job
Amelia - That's awful about your DH's job . But it's awesome that he has another job to fall back on and how fantastic that it won't cost you anything to move! It's such a pain packing and moving though, and being pregnant must make it SO much harder.
Dragonbub - I hope you get that block, you sound so in love with it!
Nic - Thanks for the congrats . Wow, the pressure from you MIL really is on for you to have a girl next! Oh well, I have just proven it's not impossible . And to be even more encouraging, we didn't even sway for a girl, we just got lucky! Gosh, how scary about Tyron's accident! That would have scared the life out of me, I'm glad he's OK.
Tiff - Great to hear from you! I've been wondering where you've been. Sounds like things have been really full-on for you lately.
Not too much going on with me, I've been having fun buying pink clothes of course! I took the boys to a play centre this morning to catch up with a friend and K got soooo tired. He fell asleep in his stroller on the way back to the car and didn't wake up when I put him in his car seat! I put him in bed when we got home and he is still out to it over an hour later. He must have been exhausted!
I've been singing "Rock-a-bye Your Bear" to him lately and he now puts his finger to his mouth and says "shhh, shhh, shhh" when we get to that part, it's so cute! He absolutely loves music, he'll turn the stereo on and sit in front of it for ages rocking, clicking and looking through CD covers .
