hi ladies
feeling really crappy at the moment, so sick with some sort of flu and to top it off AF arrived early :( I am so over myself at the moment. DH is also sick but thankfully Jordan doesnt appear to have it. I am thinking we possibly caught it off him from last week.
Kirsty I hope Gus's procedure goes well. Thinking of you all.
Missy good on you for knitting I so dont have patience for that
Krisite a little pizza now and then wont hurt. The gym workout cancels it out. :)
Cindy I will check and let you know about the BBQ but sounds like it would be fun
Nikki how is school going? Hope the kids are feeling better.
Well take care, off to the docs for a certificate as didnt go to work today.
-
Hi!
Missy - Definitely sounds like Callums going through a growth spurt!!
Melissa - It's soo cold. Geez - 11 degrees would be odd for you guys wouldn't it?? We've had a bit of rain today as well - of course it was exactly when I was getting the kids in and out of the car going to the gym...grrr.
Tracey - Looks like we're all getting sick again as well...I think my mums given it too us from looking after the kids Monday morning. I HATE winter with all the sickness that goes with it...I hope you feel better soon! Sorry to hear af arrived today...Sounds like a good idea to take time off and just feel better at home...
Nothing much happening from me...Dylans getting his needles tomorrow which I'm not looking forward too...
Chat later!
-
deancey oh you poor thing. I really hope you feel better soon. Rest up (well as much as you can) and get well soon.
Krisvee I know Callum loves his food. I just got back from the shop from getting rump steak for my sirfry as he loves that so much. I do it wil chinese noodles and he always wants seconds. Piggy boy!!!lol
Oh and Good luck tomorrow with the needles. Poor little thing.
-
Hi guys, just logging on briefly. Gus's asleep so I've nipped down to the hospital cafe to answer some emails on their internet computer. He's had the MRI but we won't get the results until tomorrow. Poor little tike really had a rough time. He was vomitting and confulsing so much that he has broked loads of capillaries on his face. His new NG tube is about to go down and that will cause a new round of issues. Thanks for your well wishes. BBL once we're home.

Hi!
Missy - Thats great he loves stir fry! Louis just loves salad! hehe. Hopefully these habits stick when they're a bit older as well!
Kirsty - Big hugs to you both...oh the poor little munchkin...crossing my fingers for a great result tomorrow...I can't imagine how hard it is for you both going through all this...You're such a strong person!!
-
Oh Kirsty! Poor little Gussy, he is such a brave boy.
I hope the results are good when you get them tomorrow.
-
Kristy - OMG! I hope things improve dramatically for you soon :pray: Poor little Gus having to spend so much time in hospital. You have a fighter!
Kristie - No, we had a 9 degree day here last week. I had the luck of being called off that night from work as they didn't need me. It sleeted at about 9pm that night. That was FREEZING! We are expecting more sleet maybe tonight, it's cold enough for it. The heaters are not doing anything for us.
Tracey - Get well soon!
Missy - I used to get teary too, unfortunately that made him worse at one stage. So naturally, I'd usually wait til I got to the car to shed a few tears. Now things are just perfect, except the fact that I saw him get stuck into another kid because he wanted the dinky the kid was on. Mind you, he was the only boy at daycare that day. The group leader says, for his age, he is a lot bigger than the rest of the kids, and that she has to keep close eye on him from time to time.
Melissa
-
OMGOsSH poor little Gussy. Im sorry he is having a hard time. Cant wait to see how he is. I hope all will be ok. :pray: alot for him xxxxx
Krisvee here's hopeing lol
lol Melissa. The male lion of the pack. How cute. I know I dont let him see me cry cause all hell would break lose and id have to take him home not for him but for me...heheheh :doh:
-
Wow Melissa - I can't believe how much cold weather your having...thats really full on for Qld!!
-
oh missy,dont you just wish they knew how to tell you what is really upsetting them,im sure it is just seperation anxiety,chantelle used to do it too,but like benjamin,she runs in there and puts her own bag away now,unfortunantly it is just instinct for us to read too far into it and start thinking the worst.
kirsty,ohhh i just want to give you and gussy a great big smoochy and hug,god i hope that the news is good and that he doesnt have to go through any more of this,you are all in my thoughts.
well i had a bad day at school today,we were doing calculations,and maths is definantly not my strong point and the teacher lost me at hello.i didnt understand anything she was teaching us and she just powered on and i got left way behind,after class i went to speak to her about it and broke down.i told her that i was srewed,oops,not the best choice of words i know and then i couldnt stop crying,she was very understanding and gave me a book to read on calculations and said that if i fail that subject she will let me resit the exam 100 times if i have to until i pass.i guess i am just getting a bit stressed cos i know that i am going to have to study really hard to get average results in this particular subject and i just dont know how the hell i can find the quality time to do it.i think i will have to put my babies in to creche an extra day here and there.
there is a thread that has started up for a vic meet at melbourne central if anyone is keen
nikki
-
Yes nikki im sure it will all be ok with callum. :)
Good luck with the study and hope you do well!!!
-
Nikki - :hug: - what sort of maths is it? Maths was my best subject. Let me know if u want a hand. Seriously, either online, or DH's relos are in Melton/Bacchus so we are out that way a lot.
-
Nikki - i hear you on the maths thing, i am hopeless! I hope the girls have als math brain, he is very logical with numbers, it all makes sense to him for some reason, sounds like you are the same rachel!
Well, there is way to much to read up on in here since i have been MIA lately. I do have to say however that i have to pull the plug on the BBQ! I forgot that al has a work do that day and its toris last swimming lesson that sunday! SORRY!!
I will be having one on the 29th of July though for my big 30!! I will give details of time etc when i work it all out! I thyink it will just be come when suits though.
If you like though i am keen to have you all over here one day during the week in the next week or so! Just throw a day out there someone and we can check diaries! WIll probably have to be thursdays though coz of nikki and tracey.
I have a dilema about my doula course, i dont know which one to do, there are so many. I dont know if i should do an aussie one or the american one that seems popular! I just cant make up my mind! I am hopeless when it comes to decision making!
Got to go.. BBL
-
Cindy Good luck with what ever course you decide to do.
Well im trying to get Callum to have a sleep but I dont think he is. I can hear him playing in there. Naughty boy...lol
Well Just found out that my DH friends dad has had a bad turn and there thinking its a heart attack. He was rushed to the hospital but dont know much. Life can change at any time. Its abit scarey isnt it.
Well I getta go
Take care all
LITTLE GUS I HOPE YOUR FEELING BETTER SWEETHEART. Get well soon..xxx

Hi!
Just about to get Dylans immunisations...I'm sick again and Louis is sick as well and I've got to drag them both out in the cold...grrrr.
On another note Dylans slept quite well today and I've made a big pot of minestrone and chicken noodle soup for dinner! The house is tidy as well so I'm happy! hehehe.
Nikki - Big hugs...I'm sure you will do fine - sounds like an idea to have some time out with the kids in creche to work on it all...
Cindy - How exciting to have your 30th soon!!! I'm pretty much free most of the time... would love to come around for a visit! Good luck deciding which course - personally I'd do an aussie one but you need to do what best suits you...
Missy - Louis has been doing that lately as well...I just let him go today and after a while he was quiet so I assume he's sleeping! hehehe. So sorry to hear of your friends dad...it is very scary how quickly things can change...
Chat later!
-
Cindy - If you can afford (and get to) the Rhea Dempsy one, its supposed to be good. I went to the Choices for Childbirth 'labour pain' session that she ran, and she really is awesome, Kelly's not exaggerating :)
Missy - Sorry about your DH's friends dad. I hope he is OK.
ETA: Milo was 10lb 4oz @birth
Kristie - good luck with the immunisations!
Well I just found out the my cousin has to have chemo. He had a lump removed from his underarm a couple of weeks ago, and they told him today that its non-hodgekins lymphoma. He's getting married in August. I dont have any info cos I'm at work, so I hope its all going to be OK.
-
Geez Rachael thats not good...sounds like he must be young as well getting married soon...
-
cindy,will the american one be recognised here in aus,if you are to get work you best be sure that your certificate is accepted here iykwim.no probs about the bbq,cant wait fo9r your 30th though.
thanks for the offer racheal,i will let you know if i need help,i have a program that i bought from uni that helps you do it,so i will try that first.
-
Krisvee I know what you mean. But he did end up going down later. So that was good.
Oh you poor thing having to take all of you out and being sick. I hope you feel better soon. How did things go the poor little thing.
Rach I just want to say HOLLY SH*T how big. 10lb 4oz that is so big. (((huge)) was that natural. If so you poor poor thing...lol.
Im sorry about your cousin and hope all will be ok.
Well we found out tonight that DH friends dad had a massive heart attack and they put some thing in to open his arteries but at the moment there worried about this head. He woke up this morning and said to his wife that he didnt feel well and she drove him to the medical cent. When they got there and he got out of the car he collapse and fell face first. He has head injury, Maybe broken jaw, and a huge cut on his face. He is having MRI tomorrow to check all that out. So the poor thing in a bad way. He is only 56.
-
Hi!
Dylan had his immunisations and had a big scream the poor little munchkin...seemed a bit unsettled tonight so we've just given him some panadol and hopefully he'll sleep ok...Poor Louis was so upset getting woken up from his sleep - gave me the dirtiest look and needed his dummy and blanket in the car...it was sooo cold as well.
Nikki - Hope the program helps you!
Missy - Oh no...geez you wouldn't think you'd have to worry about the fall! Hope everything turns out ok...
I feel like crap..off to bed in a minute...We're getting foxtel tomorrow!!! woohoo!!!
-
Krisite I hope you start to feel better soon. My cold/flu thing only lasted 2 days which was good but was lethal when it was here. Poor Dylan and his needles. Its awful when they cry but it is for their benefit and I guess its soon forgotten. LOL at Louis giving you a dirty look at being woken up. I am sure you will get addicted to all the mother/birth/baby shows on foxtel like me. :) Louis will love the kids channels.
Missy thats awful about your friends dad, I hope he is ok.
Nicole how is Harry? Is his cough better now? I am sure you will master the math work. I guess its hard to get back into it after not doing it for a while.
Rachel I hope your cousin is ok.
Cindy I would make sure whatever course you did was aus recognised as Nikki said. You wouldnt want to waste all that time and money. I will def keep your 30th free sounds great. I am happy to meet up again prob have to be on a thursday for me though.
Kirsty How did everything go with Gus? I hope all is well.
Well I am feeling 100% better today. I asked the docs about my funny AF since stopping BF and he has ordered an u/sound so will have that done once AF leaves the building. I am going to go buy some OPT this month to so I can monitor when and if I am Oing.
Off to work tomorrow, I havent been since Monday. Will have so much work to do :(
We have FIL bday on the weekend. Its gonna be great. So many people coming and we are going to have SO much food. MIL is also trying to get a stripper LOL.
Have a nice night everyone. XX
-
ok so how does next thursday the 28th work for people at my place?
-
oh Krisvee the poor kids. I hate needle times and Id be peeed off too if some one woke me up and took me out in the cold...lol...
Waiting for DH to ring and find out how he is doing today. Havent heard anything yet.
deancey im glad all is ok with you. Good luck with you U/S but im sure all will be fine. YAY on FIL party and lol at stripper...That would be funny to watch.
Has anyone heard how little Gus is going. I hope he is alright!!!
Not much happening here. Just fixing up my resume. Dont like leaving it to long.
-
Missy - I hope your friends dads gonna be okay.
Milo was a VB, I had gas and ended up with a couple of stitches, I think about 4-5.
Cindy - we won't be able to come, I'm working and its right in the time where, if Milo has got CP, he's likely to be contagious.
Kritsie, Poor Dylan, and *lol* at Louis, thats cute, but probably wasn't at the.
Tracey, glad you are feeling better and LOL at the stripper. Its my dads birthday next Saturday, I think if anyone ordered a stripper he'd feint! Mum would definitely not do it, she's too conservative!
-
Wow Rach. Your born to give birth is all I can say. I had Melissa almost 5 weeks early and she was only 5lb 4oz and I had 12 stitches. aarrggg.
-
Hi!
Forced myself to go to the gym this morning even though I feel like crap. At least now I can rest over the weekend without feeling guilty. Dylans a bit grumpy today and I fed him just before 12 and nearly 2 hours later he vomitted it all up all over me...lucky we were home from the shops. Poor little man. He's asleep now and he's going to be super hungry when he wakes up...not sure if he's sick or that it could possible be from the immunisation...
Coudn't help myself at the sales and bought the kids some clothes..from Myer I got them a tracksuit each - it's exactly the same but different colours - they'll look sooo cute! (and little enough not to kill me over it! hehe) Also got a few bonds jumpers and stuff..I'm going to be in so much trouble...
I just got a letter from family assist though and for some reason they're upping my payments again!! woohoo. I think we should be in for a pretty good tax return this year!
Tracey - Sounds like a good idea to have an u/s - at least you'll find out that everythings ok. Hope you haven't worked to hard today. LOL on MIL organising a stripper!! hehe.
Cindy - Suits me!! What time? aroudn 10.30??
MIssy - you're good fixing up a resume. I so feel like I could never work again at the moment. I always seem so busy doing nothing or shopping and gym etc. It makes me a bit nervous when we move because I won't have any outlets - no shops close by or gym...at least 30min to the pools even...no friends and only the PIL who work anyway...hmmm a bit scary really.
Gorgeous piccy by the way!!
Rachael - I would die if my dad got a stripper...hehe. I think I'm more conservative in my family...hehehe.
-
What sales? There are sales? Always when I am trying to pay off my credit card, things I need go on sale :( oh well.
I hear you on the gym Kristie, I am making myself go to the gym tomorrow, I mad a personal training appt so now I have to go. I did manage to go twice this week though so far though, hoping to be back on track soon.
-
Yep - myer's having stocktake sales..30-40 % off some winter gear... I can't believe they're getting all the summer stock in already!! Retail is so crazy...I mean we've really just started our winter weather...
Good on you for going to the gym!! Ooh personal training would be hard!!! Have fun!
-
okay,i took harry to the dr on monday and the same bloody thing happened they said it was viral and sent us home,as i was leaving the dr came out to the car park(he must have realised that he misdiagnosed him)and asked me to come back the next day,i was furious as i had waited in the waiting room for an hour,there was no way i was going back the next day,so i rang the dr who treated him last time and he made an appointment to see him today,i didnt notice but harry had a really nasty red rash all over his torso,it was really hot and spotty,he said he had another virus and that his pneumonia had flared so he put him back on the steroids.poor harry!
grant has 3 days off,woohoo and there is no sport for the kids this weekend,yipee!!!!
i will come next week also cindy.should be there at about 11am.will need to leave at about 2pm.
ok,putting the babies to bed now and doing some more of my assignment.
nikki
-
i cant believe its 7.30 and everyone in this house is sleeping, except for me!!!! I could never fal asleep that early. Al is pretty sick with the flue thing thats going around so he needs his sleep at the moment!
Nikki and Cooper will be coming on thursday and i have asked kim too, i will get onto danni too.
Well i am off to have a long bath while nobody is goingto bug me!
-
Cindy WOW i wish I was in bed at the moment. Enjoy the peace whilst you can. I am up for the thursday aswell. Can I bring Kristen along? She would love to meet you all, she has a May bubba? Poor Al, hopefully the flu bug only stays for 2 days like it did for me. It is nasty though
Nikki hope you get your assignment done. Poor little Harry he certainly has been thru a bit. Take care and have a great weekend with Grant home.
Krisite I love your shopping stories. You crack me up.
Rachel enjoy the gym tomorrow and head off to the sales if you can. :)
Ok well last night was terrible both Jamie and I couldnt sleep. We were in bed at 10.30 and just lay there and couldnt sleep. We ended up BD at 1.30am to try and fall asleep. It did the trick :) We are knackered tonight but have a bit to do for the party tomorrow. I also have to work tomorrow morning will try and get there early so can be home early to get everything sorted. DH has losts of helpers coming over though.
Have a great night and will fill you in on the party at some stage sunday I guess.
Take care XX
-
Tracey - sure bring Kristen along! The more the merrier and by the sounds of it there will be about 8 of us and god knows how many kids!
Kim and danni and their bubs are coming too..
-
Hi!
Nikki - Poor little Harry...geez doesn't leave you must faith in a lot of dr's hey..Enjoy your quiet weekend - sounds great!! Hope you get your work done!
Cindy - Yeah on the quite house - I hope you got to enjoy your bath! Wow sounds like it's going to be a super gathering on Thursday. The kids will have a ball! What would you like us to bring?? Was thinking I could make some scones and bring jam and cream!! Let me know...
Tracey - LOL yep it's official I'm a shopaholic...Good luck with the party!!! Hope you have heaps of fun! We always bd if we can't sleep and sure enough we both fall asleep afterwards easily...at least it's a fun way to get to sleep.
Poor dh is hassling me at the moment and honestly most of the time I just can't be bothered...sometimes it's like the more he hassles the less likely I am to do it anyway....hehe. Just remembered that I've forgotten to take my pill yesterday...I swear I'm going to end up p/g again soon - lOL. I just keep forgetting...
Hope you all have a good weekend...we're off to SIL's 30th dinner tonight...hopefully the kids behave. Actually she's due in 5 weeks so she may be another one to add to our gatherings after her bubbas arrived.
Chat later...
-
Happy Birthday to me! 28 today. It's freezing cold and raining here. We spent most of last night up cleaning up sick from poor little Benjamin. This morning it was coming out the other end. Lot's of nappies and changes of clothes. YUK! Anyhow, had to referee for weightlifting this morning, and I've still got to work tonight, as they are desperate. My work mate can't handle Saturday nights on his own, he's a little bit slow. I hope work will be kind enough to shout me a drink after work.
Anyhow, I hope all babies and toddlers are well or are on the mend?:pray:
Melissa
-
cool, should be a good day,i will bring some hot food for lunch,i will bring some pastizis for us and some mini frankfurts and nuggets for the kids,hope you dont mind me using the oven cindy.
nikki
-
Well its 12.30AM and i cant sleep coz i had a 3 hour sleep with the girls this arvo! BUgger!!! I have done as much of my sewing i can without using the machine so now i am just bored! I am making tori a satin edge blanket but i have no sewing skill so it is taking me forever and i am sure there must be an easier way to do it!
I should probably just go lay down and see what happens but no!
Nikki - i dont mind you using the oven thats fine! I cant believe how many people will be over, its great!
Looks likei have mastitis at the moment and if it doesnt get bettertomorrow then ihave been told to go backt othe drs and get antibiotics! God i hate them but anyway!
Kristie - i just saw an email from Sharon and she was saying that you were going over there thursday morning, what time are you going? i am wondering if i will have time to pop in to see Remy before everyone arrives.
By the way, scones sound great!
I will get some dip and bickies!
Melissa - HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! I hope work wasnt to busy for you and you got spoilt rotten by your boys! What do you do for work again? WEight lifting judging sounds interesting.
OK, i am going to try to sleep now.
HAve great weekends all, we are having a working bee around here tomorrow coz we have hard garbage on monday, time to get rid of all the bits and pieces after the move!
-
Hi!
Happy Birthday Melissa!!! Hope you have a great day!!! Poor little Benjamin being so sick...hope he's better soon!
Nikki - Sounds good! Hope you're having a good weekend!
Cindy - That nap sounds great - bugger you couldn't sleep at night though! Good on you for sewing!!
Oh no! I hope you don't have mastitis...I've never had it but it sounds horrible...
I know - I double booked. I've since emailed her saying I can't go...it will be too much of a rush...I'm seeing if she's free on the Friday instead...
Hope you had a good clearout!
As for us - had dinner out last night which was good. The boys were really good which made things a lot easier. had a glass of wine and a baileys which went down very well...Dylans had the runs a bit today so maybe from that?? whoops.
Having a quiet day today...was meant to go to a baby shower but I'm still really sick and I don't think they'd appreciate me giving them germs...
Bought Dylan a cute pair of jeans yesterday - they have a little belt and everything! hehe. Also finally got Louis a pair of silver sunnies - so cute!! Now Dylan gave have his baby banz...
Louis had his first day sleep in his big bed today!!! Michael had to go in a couple of times to settle him - he threw everything from his bookshelf onto the floor and empties his nappy bag but them went to sleep. hehe. Probably had nearly a 2 hour sleep so thats good!
Chat later...
-
Krisite LOL at Louis empying things from bookshelf and nappy bag before going to sleep. I guess once they are in the big bed its bound to happen. DYlans jeans sound cute. I cant belelive Louis will wear sunnies, I couldnt get Jordan to keep them on. We also have trouble with hats
Cindy I hope you managed to get some sleep. Its terrible when you cant sleep. Have a great time chucking things out, i have set next weekend up for a tip trip. WOW are sewing a blanket, thats talented.
Nikki your food idea sounds great YUMMY How is Harry now? Hope he is better. Did you get your school work done the other night?
Melissa Happy Birthday. Hope you had a great day.
well the party last night went really well. FIL was so surprised and he had a great night. We did a lot of the cleaning up before bed so it wasnt too bad this morning. Jordan did so well. He stayed up till just after 8 and then went to bed. He slept thru the entire party, no probs. He even slept in till 8.30 BONUS. Everyone came back this morning to help clean up and take all borrowed chairs/tables back to their houses.
Now its just DH and I and Jordan is asleep. I am enjoying the quiet.
We couldnt get a stripper in the end, they were all booked out. We only wanted a fatagram one. I was thinking if they are that popular I might chuck on some weight and start my own business LOL NOT!
Hope everyone is having a nice weekend. We are out for tea tonight as its Jamies best friends bday today so I dont have to cook BONUS.
Take care XX
-
Well, my birthday was just another day. My dh didn't even say happy birthday to me...So as much as he thought he'd get a bit from me he was sadly mistaken when he got the cold shoulder. I got a few cards from my aunts and one from my mum but as for presents, they were a no show, including the cake! I had an awful night Friday night with Benjamin, we had to change our bed sheets 3 times, because of the little guy throwing up, then it started out the other end on the saturday morning. Then I had the big guy down with gastro yesterday, and the little guy started the throwing up thing again yesterday arvo. Not a very fun weekend at all!
Cindy - When I work at night I can't get to sleep until after 1am. When I don't work at night I'm in bed before 8:30pm. If I get something on my mind, or I'm nervous about something about to happen the next day, I find I can't sleep.
Melissa
-
Hi!
Louis did really well sleeping in his big bed last night. We didn't have any dramas. He just woke up once for his dummy - seems to be doing this a bit since Dylan arrived home. I'm surprised he only woke once as Dylan woke crying heaps as he's got my cold. Ended up bringing him into bed with me...poor little munchkin.
Tracey - He usually gets fed up after a while and takes them off - at least he did with the baby banz...I'm hoping he'll keep these ones on cos they're the same as mum and dads iykwim.
Glad the party went well! Yeah for Jordan sleeping in. LOL at becoming a stripper!! hehehe.
Melissa - Sorry to hear you've had a rough b'day! Poor little Benjamin...Geez - whats with the blokes this year and birthdays??? I hope he makes it up to you! They just don't have a clue sometimes....
Gotta go....
