Babies Born October - December 2005 #11

Tracey - Goodluck! It's time Benjamin had a little playmate too.

Kristie - I've got problems with my sister atm. I got her a job where I work, and she decided to do the dirty on them, and not turn up. I wasn't going to lie for her, and told them that she wasn't coming back. She is more interested in Sex, drugs, and alcohol. Silly girl! I hope the situation with your mum works out. Mine gets irrational from time to time and I just need a time out from her.

Missy - Congrats on the job! Callum is a brave little bloke:D

Melissa

Kristy I think all mums do our heads in from time to time. Mine had a major spazz the day after our wedding, it was awful. I am sure she will get over it, they always do.
Melissa thats awful about your sister, I hate recommending people for jobs when they do that to you afterwards. I hope they didnt take it out on you. Are you TTC #2? We could become BB partners again.
Missy glad you had a great day at work. I had an ok day yesterday. Glad Callum enjoys school aswell.

Well last night I really noticed EWCM for the 1st time (sorry tmi) so BD for us last night and heres hoping we caught one of those eggs.
Jamie told me off for telling people we were TTC as his mum and our friend have been asking him about it and he cracked it. He told me he didnt want other people to know our business, little does he know you all know :)
I dont really care who knows we are TTC, doesnt make any difference, but I think he feels pressure to perform (man thing i guess).
Gotta clean the floors today they are sticky from juice spilt on the floor this morning and fish food all over the floor from Jordan trying to feed the fish.

Have a great day everyone.

Good luck this month Tracey!
all this TTC and newborn business has me awfully clucky. I can't wait til December when we can start!

im soooo not clucky,had another rotten night last night,it is really getting out of control,chantelle was up twice,refusing to go back to sleep in her own bed and harry was every other hour.we are like zombies.
had my exam this morning,i actually think i did pretty well.i am certain i passed but dont know if i could have reached a high distinction.will let you know when i get my results.now have to start preparing for the calculations exam in august,gggrrr!
melissa and tracey my fingers are crossed for you both this month.missy yay on the job,that is sooo cool,i bet it is just great being able to work with melissa,i didnt think she was old enough to work yet?glad that callum is happy with day care too.
we have a few extra kids staying over the next cuople of days being school holidays.niose,chaos,mess....mmmm i just love it NOT!!!!school tomorrow and then nothing much,anyone want to come visit?
ok off to fold the washing.
nikki

Hey Nikki I was thinking of heading to a playcentre on thursday, wanna come with us? I havent taken Jordan before and seeing as no playgroup for 2 weeks I thought I better take him somewhere.
Sorry to hear you had a bad night. I hope tonight is better for you.

I thought we could all catch up at my place when school goes back. Prob a thursday again if thats ok with everyone else. Rachel I would love it if you could make it aswell.

Floor clean and Jordan asleep Yeah chilling out relaxing.

Me too (hope I can make it). Thursdays are good, I can take Milo out of creche for the day.

Im feeling rotten and exhausted.

TMI
AF is all over the place, having breakthru bleeding.
I think the dosage of the pill I am on isn't high enough, its a 30ED, and before I had Milo I remember being increased from 35ED to 50ED (different pill though). So I think I might have to go back to the GP and have a chat.

Anyway, not up to much, feeling sorry for myself about turning 30, but thats about it.

Rachel - when is your birthday?? Have we missed it? I hope not. I am 30 in a few weeks too!! Its a big number.

Nikki - sorry to hear you had a crappy night again, i am keen to come visit whenever you want me! Well done on the exam.

Racey Tracey - I hope you caught that egg this month! Its so good to hear your u/s went well though, imagine you had twins!!

Iam starting back at work tomorrow so i must make this quick so i can get organised while the girls are sleeping. I am really looking forward to it except for having to get organised in the morning and out the door by 8!

Has everyone done the money for nikki? I just want to let her know, she hasnt asked but thought i would just tell her before she does.

Kristie - see you thursday - what time does it start?

Ive done it Cindy.

My birthday is 8th July. I am not looking forward to it :(
I guess its silly, but I'm just not.

cindy i am sure you will have a good time at work tomorrow. Hope it all goes smoothly in the morning. I have emailed Nikki and am putting the money across on friday.
Rachel dont worry about turning 30. I hope you have a nice bday. Do you have plans?

not really. I'm inviting my brother and his DF, and my parents and MIL, BIL for lunch on Sunday.

I wanted to have a BBQ and invite people but our backyard is too disgraceful, I don't want anyone seeing it *LOL*

30 is not so bad.nothing changes,but you do start to think about 40.i am 34 so will soon be heading towards the later 30s.that is scary.
happy birthday for sunday.
cindy you can come over thur or fri if you want.i am home with lots of kids.
tracey,that would be good,how about next thursday then?
i picked up harry from day care and the poor little man was in terrible pain,.his ear was oozing green puss everywhere,i rushed him straight to the dr and he has a very nasty ear infection again.he actually thought that he had perferated it.he is very concerned about him and has booked him to see a peadiatrician next week to try and work out why he is getting so sick all the time,he is back on meds AGAIN,explains the terrible nights doesnt it.i have dosed him up with panadol and am execting another rough night.cindy,i have payed nikki.good luck with work tomorrow,how long are you there for,bet you will miss the girls very much but also enjoy being something more than a mum and house keeper.
ok off to bed
nikki

Nikki- thats terrible about poor harry! I hope the paed can come up with an answer.
I might come visit on friday - will have to see how buggered i am from tomorrow at work and i am going to new macdonals farm with kristie and louis and dylan on thursday. I will comfirm on thursday! HOw soon will they be able to get harry in with the paed??

Well i am all set for work, other than having no clothes! I so have to lose some weight, i am stagnant at 80kg at the moment which is 9kg heavier than i was when i got pregnant with charlotte so i think its time to get working on it and start eating better!
Work is from 9.30 till 6ish and i am having tea at mums after which will be good. I am so going to miss he girls but i do need some time without them! I am really feeling trapped at the moment by the house cleaning and nappies etc! Back to the working/ earning money world i go! the money will be a help to get rid of some little debts that are hanging around too!

OK, off to bed, i will check in with you all tomorrow night!

Hi!

Had a busy day yesterday - Went and visited a mum from mothers group who has a gorgeous little 6 week old girl - met Cindy there as well! I can't believe how big Charlotte is looking - our bubbas are growing so quickly!! Once again Louis was harrassing Tori for cuddles and kisses - LOL! Then Louis had a quick hour nap and it was off to my brothers - we've picked up his dishwasher which just has a part that needs replacing! Michael's got the day off today so hopefully we can get it going!!! Louis had a ball running around outside with their dog and was super tired last night so I'm not surprised he slept in until 8.30am this morning!

Melissa - Sorry to hear about your sister - it's horrible when you try and help them out and it backfires...

Tracey - I'm hopeless at keeping things secret as well...Hope you had fun last night!! Yep - I'm up for a visit when you organise it!!

Rachael - Yeah at feeling clucky - not long to go if your waiting for December!!! Bugger about your cycle..hope you can get it sorted..Yeah on having a birthday!!! Try not to stress about turning 30 - it's the new 20!!!!

Nikki - I wouldn't imagine you would be clucky with how busy you are! LOL! Sorry to hear the kids aren't sleeping to well...Yeah for doing well on your exam - hope you get the results you want! I don't know how you do it with the extra kids over holidays!! I think I'd go crazy! Probaby won't be up for a visit this week...I'm finding I'm trying to do to much and I'm falling behind on the housework...I really have to slow down a little or I get overwhelmed. I don't know how you guys go out everyday - I just wouldn't get anything done!!! Although I could do it at night I just don't have the energy...I just like to relax after the bubs are in bed...
Poor Harry - omg - The poor little bugger...Hope he's feeling better today. Probably sounds like a good idea trying to suss out if there's a reason he's getting so sick...my nephew was really run down when he was a baby and my sister took him to a naturopath and they gave him somethign to boost his immune system and it really helped...I'll try and find out what it was...

Cindy - Hope youre having a good day at work!!! Tomorrow starts at 10am!! I'm going to have to be super organised and aim to leave here by 9am...I havent' transferred the money yet but will do it Friday at the latest!! I'm with you on losing weight - I've stopped still as well...doesn't help that I haven't been to the gym for a week and a half...a bit hard when we're all sick!

Anyone braving the kmart sale??

Gotta run...

i was in kmart today and there was sooo much stuff i want to get the babies but there is no way i am going to be there in all the rush,it opens at 12.01am tonight so maybe i might go then,mmmm not sure
well i got my exam results today.i wasnt expecting to get it back so soon but i did really well and got 90%,that is a high distinction.OMG!i am very proud of myself.i was also offered a job today working in a hostel,that is low care aged care,i never wanted to go back to aged care cos it is really hard work on your back and crappy work,showering and toileting etc but they have offered me a management role,so i wont be doing any of that stuff,well very limited anyway,i would be in charge of the unit when i am on shift and be doing all the drug and wound rounds.also i will be able to be flexible with my hours.it is in bacchus marsh which is 15 mins away,grant and i are going to sit down and talk about it tonight.it is great pay doing night shift on the weekends,$300 a night.but im not sure if those hours would suit me so we have to work out what shifts would work for us.
oky doky,chat later
nikki

Me! Oh really do they all open at midnight?

I want to get Milo the giraffe toy box, and I just know they will sell out if I don't go early. I might have to brave the masses!

That's fantastic on your score Nikki! Well done! the job sounds great too if you can make the shifts work with your family :)

Nikki thats excellents news on the test score, well done. I hope you rewarded yourself. Yeah on the job offer also. I hope you and Grant work someone out. Poor Harry I hope he feels better soon. I am up for next thursday if you want to go to the play centre.
Cindy How did work go? I hope the girls enjoyed their day with their nanna
Kristie I know what you mean about falling behind in housework. I am back up to date but 1 day out a week is enough for me as otherwise I cant cope and the house looks like a pig sty
Rachel I dont think I could handle shop at midnight.

Well so much wiggles stuff in the bigw catalogue that I want. Better go check it out and put layby on i think.
Just got message from another friend who is pregnant with #4, God everyone I know is pregnant.
Jordan had a great day with his nanna today, he walked home from her house with Jamie which is very cute. Its quite a long walk to but Jamie said he loved it.
He didnt however like the tacos we had for tea. I had to make him toast in the end as he didnt eat much at all. He definatly doesnt like lettuce (like his mum)
Think we will get an early night tonight. Quite tired after today at work.
Night all XX

Hi!

Nikki - Thats fantastic!! Congratulations on such a great mark and a job offer!!!

Tracey - Glad Jordan had a good day. Bugger at the taco's...Louis didn't really like nachos either...

I'm going to the sale after Michael gets home tomorrow...I'm tempted to go through the night but sleeps too important to me at the moment...Big w's sale starts tomorrow as well and Target in a fortnight...I'm just too excited - LOL!

Oh and we got a dishwasher today!! wooohooo! It's just my brothers old one but it got a leak and he bought a new one. I'm so lucky Michael's so clever at fixing things and he got it working today! Yeah!!!

Goodnight! See you tomorrow Cindy!!

Well first day of work over with and it was great! I was greated with hugs and kisses and a new filing cabinet (easily pleased arent i) and then when i got to mums i was greated by a very excited tori who had missed me terribly and was really sooky unless charlotte was around too! I am definately brain fried tonight though.I did miss my girls too!

Nikki CONGRATS!!!! thats fantastic about both the job and your exam score! How proud of you am i!!! How many hours would the job be?

Can you believe its 10 and my girls are just going to sleep now! how slack am i tonight! Best be off to put the big one to bed now that the little one has gone to sleep finally.

Krisite - see you in the morning, dont stress about parking, there is heaps! I will meet you out front about 9.45!

Tracey - tori doesnt eat tacos either the little bugger, coz i love them, lettuce and all!

Night all.. off to clean the kitchen now. ho hum a mums work is never finished!

oh wow.i have just woken to feed harry and it is 11pm,i went to bed at 8,oh dear i must have been tired but i feel like i have just had a full night sleep,i must go to bed early more often.
nikki

Hi!

Nikki - Glad you got a good sleep in!!

Cindy - See you this morning!!

I'm soo excited!!! I hope the kids enjoy it!!

I'm soooo tired.
Dragged myself out to kmart last night, OMG! I had everyting I wanted by 12:30, and stood in the layby queue for 2 hours after that... :doh:

The lady 2 places ahead of me in the queue had brought her 4 kids along, the youngest about Milo's age and the rest not much older, and was feeding them chuppa chups and applu juice at 1am...

But I did get all the stuff I wanted (from Kmart), and have birthday and christmas covered now without going into our Christmas budget, it was so cheap and with no deposit laybuy it will all be paid off. I am so proud that we won't be using our credit card this year! Just some playschool and wiggles DVDs to go now.

Tacos..mmmm...taaaacos...I've not tried Milo with them, he loves cor chips though. I might try him out with a burrito first and see how we go, cos Neil and I both love Mexican.

Housework..DH does most of ours, well he thinks he does. He vaccuums, mops and does the dishes/tidies the kitchen. I do the bathroom and the toilet, and most of the clothes washing (unless I want everything pink), and anything outside the house apart from the lawnmowing, though I have done that too, on occasion.

well we did a make up swimming class today and it was good. We then had lunch and now Jordan in bed and I can chill. Kristen is coming over to watch model this afternoon so that will be nice.

Rachel WOW on braving the sales and OMG I so wouldnt have waited 2 hrs in the layby queue. What was the lady doing with her kids out that late, thats ridiculous. Glad you got everything you wanted though.

Cindy LOL at being excited over a filing cabinet. I am glad you had a great day and thats so nice that Tori was rapted to see you. It makes it all the more special when you get home and they great you with a big smile and hug.

Krisite Yeah on the dishwasher I couldnt live without ours. I hate doing the dishes. Hope you have a good day today.

Nikki An early night is sometimes what the doc ordered. We have done that a bit lately. Glad you felt better for it. How is Harry doing with his ears?

Missy hope you are all well and the job is going well. DO you get any perks? Free rentals??????

gotta go finish the washing i guess. check in with you all later.

Hi!

We went to New Mcdonalds farm show this morning! Was pretty good...got sucked into buying Louis a t-shirt - they're such a rip off! Tori was giving me cuddles which was nice!! Both the kids were tired and while Tori was being gorgeous Louis was being a feral! hehe.
He was running around everywhere and I was being a paranoid mum so I thought I'd let him got a bit and then I lost him!!! I knew he couldn't have left the room but I couldn't see him anywhere. Then Cindy did a walk around and couldn't see him and by then I was starting to get really scared and anxious and then luckily a lady could see Cindy looking and he had climbed up the top of the steps/seating...like to where they do the scoring for basketball and was playing..OMG!!! She brought him down to her and everything was fine. He was just having so much fun running around but gave him Mummy a heart attack!!!!!!!!! So after that experience I'll be getting Dylan babysat when we have the wiggles so I can look after Louis...I wouldn't want to lose him at Rod laver!!!
Anyway, got some chippies on the way home and he crashed and is still asleep. We've just been too busy lately and he's soo tired. Dylan was good though!

Rachael - Yeah for doing all your shopping! I'm heading out later when Michael gets home...I almost can't be bothered now though...I can't believe that lady took all her kids out at that time of night - bet she's paying for it today!!!

Tracey - Sounds like you've got a cruisy arvo planned! Glad you had fun at swimming!!

Chat later...

glad you had fun,did louis enjoy it,he is such a big fan!that would have been scarey,i lost corey for 3 hours when he was 3,the police helicopter and car loads of police were out looking for him.was the worst day of my life.
i have 9 kids today.omg,they are all still asleep though,even the babies.i am waiting for the explosion of noise and mess any moment now.
nikki

Hi!

Did some more shopping today...laybyed a cars 4 wheeler for Louis! I think he'll love it!! Bought them some more winter clothes as well - thought I better hurry up before all the summer stocks in...
Michael's gone out for the night so the house is quiet - at the moment - I so hope it stays that way...would be nice to have some quiet time to myself..I'm sure the quiet will be broken by Dylan very soon though...we're having a bit of trouble getting him to sleep at night at the moment cheeky bugger...

Nikki - OMG!! How scary - I can't imagine how horrible that would be! Wow at the kids having such a big sleep in! Wow at having 9 kids - I don't know how you do it! I'm babysitting my niece and nephew next week - I think 4 will be hard enough for me in our little house!!
Yeah..he enjoyed it but I still think he's a bit little to get the most out of it iykwim??

Hope you're all well - very quiet in here at the moment!

Cindy - Hope everythings ok and you and Al made up! meant to ask last night when I posted...

Chat later!

Nikki OMG you are a supermum to have 9 kids. I cant beleive you do this every holidays. Why do these other mums never offer to do the same for you??? Bonus on the sleep in though
Krisite glad you had a good time at mcdonalds farm. I felt awful for you when i read you lost Louis for a while. Glad he was ok. I too would prob try and have Dylan looked after for wiggles so you can concentrate on Louis although there will be all of us there to help you.

Well today Jordan said BYE BYE. It was so adorable. Now thats about 5 words (slow and steady is Jordans game plan)
Had a nice tea and have been chillin on the couch all night.
MIL asked me if I felt pregnant yet...... so dont need that. I really hope we did it this month but have my reservations. TIme will tell.
Will be working OT tomorrow as just checked the bank balance and its terrible and its pay day. We so need some more cash but dont know where it can come from. Maybe that stripping idea is an option :) NOT

So what does everyone have planned for the weekend? Work and then dinner for friends 30th on our agenda for tomorrow.
Take care everyone.

Hi!

Tracey - Yeah on Jordan saying Bye!! woohoo!! I have my fingers and toes crossed for you this month as well!!! Bugger at the bank balance...I've spent way to much lately as well...whoops. Will have to tone down now until the target sale - LOL!!! Nah...We just got in our gas and electricity bills so will not be able to do any shopping next week...If only there was an easy way to get loads of money!!!
We have a quiet weekend planned...Just got to do food shopping tomorrow and some housework!! I think I'm going to sort out Louis' toys and start putting a few out each day...he's got so many he doesn't play with half of them unless I get it out for him...

i went through all of chantelle and harrys toys today aswell and soughted them all out,i have put them all into boxes so she can easily get to them,doll box,dress up box ,rattles box,noisy toys box,blocks,etc.she played with them all afternoon,they were all thrown into a big box together before and she never went near it as it was too big and overwhelming and too hard to get to a particular toy.
nikki

Nikki - we did that with toris toys a few weeks ago and she plays with them so much more now!

Kristie- he is still giving me the whatevers but is better and he apologised for ebing a turd to me! SO thats a start!

Tracey - jordan is such a super star, as you said, slow and steady! Its a much bette way to go i think.
Unfortunately for me i think i have anothe bub that wants to get going early, she has started giggling already and she shuffles up her cot on her back and is already trying to roll, she can get onto her side but thats it for the moment, i dont think it will be long before its more though!

Best be off to have a shower and tidy my disgusing house up a bit before my sister gets here, she is taking tori for a few hours so i can get a bit of a break, al hasnt been home before 11pm all week this week and i am going crazy! I need some cindy time!!!!

I've been doing the same thing re the toys. They seem to be multiplying exponentially! I actually only got 5 or 6 things at the toy sale (well I've only been to kmart so far) but one of them was a toybox, and I am going back to get three matching, stackable toy tidy boxes. That way I can bring out one cube at a time, and Milo can play with those toys. Hopefully it will stop him getting bored with the too!

There was more chicken pox in Milo's creche room again yesterday, at least he is immunised now. Its not going too well with the new staff roster they have in place, last night he came hom all worked up and cranky. I've never seen him like it before. :(

Nikki - 9!!! OMG, I think I'm run off my feet just with Milo!

Better go do some housework before Milo wakes up from his nap!

Hi!

Having a beautiful quiet day at home...Just went through Louis/Dylans toys...I've put everything into bags with a selection of toys in each bag and I'm just going to pull out one bag at a time...I managed to fill up 14!!! (books included) Even just when I was sorting them he was playing with things he hadn't for ages! It has also cleared out my lounge room and his bedroom heaps (just to make room for xmas toys! LOL!)
Dylans been great, finally having some big sleeps- he's still having his 2nd big one which means he's been going nearly 3 1/2-4 hoursly between feeds - cross fingers we're getting into the beginning of a routine!! It certainly makes life a lot easier!! He's way to big for his bassinette so we're setting up the cot this arvo...not sure how it's all going to work but we don't have a choice... He's getting so big already!!! Very scary...I'll definitely be going back for no.3!!!

Nikki - I had Louis' toys like that as well - cars box, books box etc but I still found he didn't really want to go searching through them...Hopefully my new way will work!!
How's Harry going?? Hope you're coping ok with all the kids!

Cindy - I'm glad things are a little better...hopefully it will be all good soon! Wow at Charlotte nearly rolling..I don't think Dylans anywhere near it yet - he's a lazy boy! LOL! Mind you - like you said - I wouldn't mind if he does things a little slower than Louis - It's much easier when they just lie there!!! Louis didn't roll until he was 4 months + anyway...
Hope you get some time out!

Rachael - I want to get some storage boxes for under the bed...it's about the only room we've got left after having a bed, bookshelf, drawers, cot and change table in a single bedroom!!! LOL! Ooh thats no good with the chicken pox...sounds like things aren't too great at the childcare - maybe you should say something to them???

Chat later - off to do some food shopping...

Well my sister came and instead of her taking tori we allwent for a walk to the playground around the corner with tori and her cousin shae on bikes. Wouldnt you know it we get half way and it starts raining!! It was lots of fun though and the girls had a ball on their bikes and charlotte just slept all the way in the pusher so it was all good. I have started taking the girls out for walks a fair bit lately and tori just loves it. I cant wait untill she can ride without me having to oush her though so we can take her bike out when its just me and the two of them.

I cant blieve everyone is going through toys, Kristie - you scare me talking about neding to clear space before chirstmas pressies.....

Off to get tea ready while the princess's sleep!

Nikki -i keep meaning to ask how you went with the job offer? What did you decide to do?

well its a quiet night here. we were meant to be out for tea for our friends 30th however jamies mate called just after he left our house, he had been here most of the arvo, to tell us he had been robbed. They took his plasma and his laptop. Jamie has gone over there to make sure nothing else has gone and to help with whatever else you do when you get robbed. They would have had to have done it during daylight aswell as he left here at 6 so its really cheeky.
Cindy bugger about it raining whilst you were walking. Thats great you are taking the kids out for a walk. I should really follow that lead and give Jordan more outside time.
Kristy good job on organising all the toys. I wouldnt know where to start. I certainly think you will need to find room for xmas and bday toys. We all know how you shop :)
Rachel not more chicken pox. I hope Milo doesnt get it. Does the vacination mean he wont or would be unlikely? Good on you for organising toys as well.
Nikki how many kids did you have today? LOL HOpe you are having a nice relaxing weekend.

Jamie went to BigW whilst I was at work to get some stuff from the catalogue and everything we wanted was sold out. We wanted the wiggles table and chairs and some other stuff. Bummer.
We want to repaint his room and take down his old wallpaper, whats left of it anyway. We want to make it more a boys room rather than a babies room. Maybe I will wait a bit longer to see if he is going to stay in there. If we hsve another bubs he will prob change rooms.
So home alone on a saturday night, how tragic.
Take care XX

Hi!

Cindy - Sounds like you had a nice walk - bugger about the rain - it was freezing today! I must say I'm not good at taking Louis outside in this weather...hopefully I'll get a moment to take him out for some fresh air tomorrow...they don't seem to feel the cold but I do! hehe.
I know...I'm so bad with toys...Not that they have heaps but it just seems like that cos we have such a little space...After packing them all away while Louis was sleeping I left one bag out and he didn't even look at it - just sat on the couch vegging with Michael watching t.v...and yet I still buy more...LOL! It wouldn't be so bad if I could pack away all the baby ones but of course we're using them! LOL.

Tracey - Oh no for your friend...I can't imagine how horrible that would be...Dodgy buggers. What a pain the toys were sold out at big w! There were a few things I was looking for but couldn't find...I don't think they have the quantity that kmart do...Still Target catalogue starts in a fortnight! So excited - it's already on line but the prices don't get put up until next Fri. There's a really cool Pooh bear art easel that I want to get Louis but I'm not sure how much it is yet. Also a cool outdoor cubby thing...I know those are really dear though so not too sure about that either...

Chat later!

Oh no Tracey, that sux, I hope not too much was taken.

The immunisations makes it a lot less likely that he'd get it. None of the immunisations are 100% though.

quiet one here too.
only my children today,ahhh peacful,well almost.grant and i were going to do the tiling in the bathroom.kitchen and laundry,we spent all day driving around trying to get the tiles but ended up with none as we had to order them in.we did end up buying new curtains for the front windows so we will put them up tomorrow.grant is home until wednesday next week as there next job wont be ready till then.we will try and get some things done around the house.there is so much we want to do outside but it is too damn wet.
cindy why is al getting home so late.that is very late for him to be working back,i hope he is getting payed lots of OT.i dont know the ins and outs of your fight but sounds like he is prob very tired and fed up.
i am not going to the sales,i just cant be bothered with the kews.every other year i have noticed that alot of the things go on sale again with less people looking for them so i think i will wait.
not sure about the job yet,i am going to see the boss next week to find out some more info so we can make a decision.i am looking for a baby sitter for chantelle 25th of august for the night,grant and i want to go to sydney for one night for my foster fathers 50th birthday,it would be too expensive and alot to pack for one night if we take the kids,i have everyone babysat except for her.i am worried that she wont cope without me for that long and i am very choosy about who will have her cos she is at that clingy,routine stage.
james has hijacked my bed tonight,he has fallen asleep with dady in there so it is the couch for me.
nikki

Hi!

Nikki - Hope you get some things done to your house!! You guys sound very busy! I would love to babysit Chantelle - Might be a bit hard space wise here but we could always set just set up the port-a-cot and It would prob be easier getting someone closer but if you get stuck let me know!!
Sounds gorgeous that James fell asleep in your bed! Hope you slept ok!

We had a great day! I got a sleep in and then we just chilled out at home. Louis and I played heaps and he even helped me unload the dishwasher! Was so cute - he stood on his step and put the cutlery away and helped stack the plates and bowls!! He's been so good!
We also set up the cot for Dylan so he's already to go....probably next week.
I've got my niece and nephew having a sleepover tomorrow night which Louis will love!!

Chat tomorrow! It's very quiet in here - hope you're all well!

P.S I've put some photos up in the gallery if you want to have a look! Such a great idea!!

Nikki - yeah, al is just tired but i m the type that doesn put up with the narkyness so it ends up bigger than it needs to be.... Al doiesnt get O/T, at all which sucks but it has been late night coz of end of financial year and they have had awards nights for nissan australia and dinners for people going on maternity leave etc. He has done lots of drinking and eating this past week! Today was great though, got stuff done around the house and then my friend and her son came for tea and luke and tori just had a ball together! I just love watching her run around like a mad thing!
I will put my hand up to have your princess if you like! We would love to have her, if you will let me! Just say the word my love. Sounds like a great idea going to sydney for the night etc. Do you talk to your f/father much? I cant believe how young he is!

Tracey- I cant believ your friend was robbed during the day! I can remember like it was yesterday when my car got broken into and stripped (fancy car, new interior sound system etc) i got rid of it not long after coz it felt so yucky being in it when i knew someone i hadnt invited in to it was in there!

Corry, got to run, tori is still up and i think she has hit exhaustion point, got to grab her while i can.

Hi!

Cindy - Glad things sound better!

How funny is this!! I was getting dressed this morning and Louis looks at me and goes "Doody gone" hehehehe. I couldn't believe that he has picked up on that already! I nearly died. I just said ladies have boobies and boys have doodies! hehehe. Hopefully thats all he needs to know for now! LOL!

Off to the gym this morning - but so can't be bothered - I was heaps with the kids last night...
I think af is on it's way again...although the last few days I've felt really nauseous and been getting really scared...it does seem only when I'm really hungry though or I've had too much sugary food...I would just die if I was p/g again...I've been taking the pill but did forget for a weekend...hmmm...I'm sure everything is fine...I don't think I'd cope with 3 under 3 - LOL!!

Chat later!
