Krisite I am so sorry that your school friends do not show interest in your kids etc. Even though they may not be at that stage of life you would think they would still be interested cause its you??? Like the others said you have us and we love you. I just got in contact with my school friends after 9 years of absense. It was hard at 1st, I was the only mum but 2 others have kids so its easier. I wouldnt write your friends off maybe make the catch up less frequent that way you have more to catch up on. WTF about the stretchmark comments?????? They wouldnt want to see my body as they would die of shock. I guess some poeple are very vain. I wouldnt give up my bubs to have no stretch marks.
Nikki Poor Chantelle I hope she feels better soon. I really hope you can still get away for the weekend you both deserve it. Hope your final exam goes well, I am sure it will.
Cindy Good on you for joining the gym. Hope Charlottes better now after her needles.
Melissa bummer about benjamin being sick again. Hope he gets better soon
Rachel LOL at miloe giggling and saying no to you. They are such characters at this age.
Well we had tea at ILs for BIL and GF going back to perth for a while. Was nice but sad to see them go even if for only a couple of months.
Jamie bought Jordan a new bike/scooter today and he LOVES IT. Its a ride on at the moment and then turns into a scooter later on. He said CAR CAR CAR all night after he got it LOL. He is obsessed with cars at the moment.
Well 7 more days till we go away YEAH the count down is on. Off to work tomorrow though BUMMER
have a great weekend everyone

Hi!
It's such a gorgeous day! I hope you're all enjoying it!! I've finally realised why Louis is waking a few times a night again - he has a new toothy peg!! woohoo!!! It's the one next to his bottom 4. Finally tooth no.13 is through! hehehe. I was beginning to think he didn't have any more!
Michaels working today but coming home tonight so thats great. Louis so didn't want him to go.
Melissa - So sorry to hear poor Benjamins sick again...geez just when you thought he was over it too. it's so awful when they're sick...
Tracey - Thanks! Yeah...we only catch up every 3-4 months as it is! hehe. I agree - a few stretchmarks is nothing when we've got our precious bubbas. I know they're no-where near kids yet but I hope they don't have them - theyr'e attitudes towards it all are so horrible. Or at least I hope they mature a hell of a lot more anyway...
Aww how cute with Jordan and his new little bike!! Omg - you must be getting so excited for your holiday!! How long are you going for again?? (sorry if you already said!)
K - I'm off - actually got washing dry outside today - yeah - I can't wait for the warm weather when I can nearly get it all done in a day!!
-
Kristie - I have PM'd u, my friend wants to book a party :)
-
Kristie Yeah on Louis new toothy peg. I too have washing outside, its so bizzare. We are away for 10 days, cant wait.
Well it is a gorgeous day. Jamie has taken Jordan out for a walk with his best friend to feed the ducks. I am chilling with the tele on the music channel. We have our friends 2nd bday party tomorrow so that will be fun.
Hope everyone is enjoying the fabulous day
-
Hi!
Rachael - Thank you so so so so much!!! I have arranged a party with your friend so we're all ready to go!! (on the 8th Sept!)
Tracey - 10 days away will be great! I was listening to the vma's top 100 performances today! Had some great stuff and Louis didn't complain that the cartoons weren't on as he was too busy playing outside anyway! hehe. Have fun tomorrow!
There's a party on up the road thats sooo noisy but I think I'm too tired to care - off to bed now!!
Chat tomorrow!
-
Hooray! The one weekend I am free both days! Count me and Milo in :)
-

nikki
-
Hi!
Rachael - Woohoo! Will be great to catch up again!
Nikki - Wow nikki - thats great getting so much done!!! Poor little Chantelle - hope she's feeling better today...Bugger you didn't make it to Sydney...
We had a good day...it was sooo nice! It's meant to be 25 tomorrow now! We had to do food shopping this morning though and then I went to a body shop party to watch one so unfortunatley couldn't make the most of weather! It gets me very excited that Summers on it's way though...I must go and get Louis a new pair of thongs...
chat tomorrow!
-
Nikki I hope Chantelle isf eeling better. WOW you did get a lot done in one day. Bugger you didnt make it to sydney, I hope you can manage a weekend with Grant at some point soon. You certainly deserve it. I am glad Chantelle loves her new bed
Krisite Hope you enjoyed the body shop party you went to. I had one earlier this year, it was a make up one. I also went to a foot/hand pamper one. I am sure you will be a great presenter. I hope you manage to get out and about tomorrow in the good weather.
Well we had our friends little girls 2nd bday this afternoon. It was good. Jordan had a good time, he spent most of the time in this car she was given for her birthday LOL he is obsessed with cars at the moment. I think we will end up getting him something similar for his birthday.
Having an early night tonight off to work tomorrow, only 3 working days left..... YEAH
-
Trace - Glad the party went well - LOL on the cars. Louis loves them as well. He has 17 matchbox cars now! hehehe. He know the names of the Mustang, Camaro, Hummer as well as a few others - so funny when we get him to show people what some of them are and he rattles off the names!! He's his fathers son! hehe.
Well, hopefully you'll be able to come to Nikki's if we can organise it! hehe. We'll have to do a facial party since you've already had the others!!
-
Cindy - is it ok if I bring Milo with me to your AP? I don't mind just trying to get organised.
Well we had a fun weekend, Milo redecorated his cot, grobag and himself with sudocream :)
Then I flooded the laundry soaking his stuff cos I got sidetracked and forgot about it.
So, much fun was had at our place!
-
Rachel - thats fine! There will be plenty kids for him to play with!
Well we had a busy weekend- i had my neice for the night friday night and all day sat so because th weather was so lovely we went to the park and all that good stuff, complete with icy poles! Sunday we went to a BBQ which was lovely and the kiddies had a ball playing as usual!
Now the week begins again, its kind of like groud hog day around here! I have decided to not do as much cleaning etc as usual coz i was finding i would get into it and then realise that tori was just sitting watching tv all day which isnt ideal. SO we are going to the park more and just playing more together when charlotte is sleeping, tori loves painting at the moment and drawing so thats heaps of fun, i am trying to teach her colours but she just doesnt get it!looks at me like im an idiot coz its a piece of paper not 'yellow' etc.. She will get it one day!
I took my tupperware catalogues to playgroup today and the girls were like vultures(sp?) which is great, two of them are going to book parties which is fantastic, I'm so glad it just sells itself and i dont have to push it on people!
BEtter get going, the girls are sleeping ang being such a nice day i thought i would go sit out inthe sun with my book, thats after i hang the washing out anyway!
Have a great day everyone!
-
Cindy - I have heaps of tupperware, but I still buy stuff from time to time. When you have young mother's who really want quality products with a lifetime guarantee, they usually swarm.
Well, Benjamin has Gastro badly. He's got to the stage today where he was fine until this arvo, then off he went again out both ends. Dh has come down with the vomits too now. I'm soldiering on still and handing out panadol and water. I hate it when they are sick. Benjamin has been sick most of the weekend. Today was a good day. I think both will be home with me tomorrow.
Melissa
-
all well here.both babies are in good health apart from harry having conjunctivitis,the nights are bad at the moment with chantelle.had a good weekend,did lots around the house and then finished off the weekend with friends over for a bbq which was really nice with the good weather.chantelle counted to 5 a few times yesterday,she is talking really well now.
studying today for the exam tomorrow,have a great day everyone.
nikki
-
Nikki glad the kids are feeling better, Yeah on CHantelle counting to 5. Hope your get some good study in.
Cindy tuppaware does sell itself which is good. Glad you are getting good party bookings. Painting sounds fun. I should really invest in something like that for Jordan.
Krisite LOL at Louis knowing car names, what a little boy.
Melissa I hope you all start to feel better soon
Rachel Bugger about flooding the laundry, I have done that a few times.
Well today we had photo day at playgroup and Jordan wasnt himseld. He was so clingy so we really didnt get any shots of him, Oh well. He was feeling a little hot and when we got home I realised his temp was 38.8 !!!! So I gave him some panadol and stripped him off. I have had to rock him to sleep twice now, he only slept for 40 mins. I am hoping he will sleep better now and feel better tonight.
I think I may stay home with him tomorrow as I want to make sure he is well for our trip. I couldnt handle him sick on the plan and in a strange place. Its so awful for everyone.
Well I have broken the 2 coke rule and already on my 2nd so will be 3 today I think. Oh well once in a blue moon wont hurt.
Got all waxed this morning, Brilliant, all neat and tidy.
Gotta get this house organised before we go away. Take care everyone
-
snap Tracey, I was just about to post that Milo has been off colour today and having temps, mums given him 2 doses of panadol since 7am. He woke up really hot last night and I had to give him some then as stripping him was not helping to cool him down at all.
He's been soaking through his nappies, grobag and through to the sheets at night lately too, so I've just bought some night nappies (cloth) and a stack of other clothies today, and we will try that route again.
ouchy at the waxing. I got a bikini was when I was pg, but thats the only one. DH wants me to get a brazilian, but I'm scared and told him I will if he will LOL.
-
Tracey - are you working? I can't remember. Darlings Downunder (cloth nappy site) want someone near taylors lakes (you're not too far from there are you?) part time a few hours a day, 2-3 days a week.. not sure what its doing..
-
Rachel I hope Milo is feeling better. Good on you for trying cloth nappies. I am working but thanks for letting me know anyway.
I borrowed some cloth nappies off a friend today and when I put the filler in there was no way they would do up, Jordan is too big for them LOL. I think I will stick with disposable. We only have a few more months hopefully in nappies.
I have taken tomorrow of work to look after Jordan I hope he is better tomorrow and we get a good night sleep. He only slept for 40 mins this afternoon, he was quite good considering.
Have a great night everyone
-
I think Milo might have another ear infection.
he seems close to TT for daytime, but night time is potentially years away based on family history. Its a 40% chance he will follow suit, let hope he takes after me!
-
just got back from my exam,it was really hard and i only knew the answers to about a quater of the questions,i am so disapointed,i literally had to guess 27 out of 50 multiple choice questions with absolutly no idea what they were about.it was like playing pin the tail on the donkey,there were alot of short answer questions,i answered them all but very vaigly,they said that if we didnt pass we will get a phone call by this friday to resit it next wednesday,fingers crossed that the phone doesnt ring.
nikki
-
Nikki, if they do call, do they tell you what you got?
Can you remember any of the questions you were not sure on?
-
Nikki I hope the phone doesnt ring also. If it does you atleast have an idea of what you need to revise though. I am sure you did well though.
Well Jordan is better today, he had a really junky eye this morning when he woke up and it was weepy for a while. The girl across the road has conjunctavitis so I think Jordan caught that off her over the weekend. D'OH. He seems better today, lets hope he sleeps better aswell. Last night he slept in summer PJs with only 1 sheet and he still sweat, pott munchkin.
Bought fathers day pressie, 2 dvds for Jamie and then trackie and a jacket for me to take away with us. I so dont own really warm clothes.
Tidied up this morning, will mop tomorrow i think and then pack. Maybe I will do some today???
Hope you all having a nice day
XX
-
I had no idea what to get Neil for fathers day.
So he decided to just buy something for himself (without telling me first) and spent about 3 times what I'd budgeted :(
I hope Jordan is feeling better Tracey. Milo sometimes gets a weepy eye when his ears are playing up.
-
i have decided to get grant a sat nav for his car,very very spoilt not to mention that i also already got him some surf clothes
nikki

Hi!
Had a full on last couple of days with training Mon and Tues night. Got my kit last night so am very excited!!! The products are sooo nice!
Anyway...Dylans screamed for Michael both nights - he's going through a little funny stage at the moment but at least he seems to be sleeping a little better. Louis is good! Such a little character. Had a day at home today which was nice and actually got my housework done! woohoo!! It was soo disgraceful...hehe.
Rachael - Oh no with the cream everywhere! At least you floors would have got a clean with the laundry flooding (got to look at the positive right??
Poor Milo - hope he's feeling better too. Thats no good with the night time nappies - hope the clothe ones help! LOL on the brazilian - wouldn't we love to see a guy get it done - I don't think they have any concept on how much it hurts. In saying that though I used to get it done. I think it's great! Not for him though - just for me! hehe.
Won't it be great when they bubs are toilet trained!!!
Aren't men hopeless??? Michael always gets bigger presents than me - they just seem to like big expensive toys I think!!!
Cindy - I've got quite a few interested people in Tupperware...not sure how many people coming to the party yet though...My aunties not coming but still placing an order though so hopefully we can get some good sales! I'll try my hardest - LOL! It really is great stuff though - most people are excited to buy it which is great!
Sounds like you had a great weekend!! Hehe I gave up on cleaning years ago! hehe. It's overrated! Not that I've got out and done heaps with Louis lately either...I've got so much stuff for him but we don't have the time to play with it half the time!!
Hope you got time to sit out in the sun and relax!
Melissa - you poor thing dealing with the sick boys!! Hope they're on the mend!!
Nikki - Glad you had a good weekend! Wow - what a clever girl counting to 5!!!
Glad the kids are feeling good!!
Big hugs Nikki! I'm sure you'll have done fine!!! At least you can resit it even if you didn't do as well as you hoped. Sorry...here I am texting you today and you were probably all anxious...
Wow - Grants getting super spoiled!!!
Tracey - Poor Jordan...hope he's feeling better. Yeah at getting waxed!! God I really must start to do something like that again!! So slack. I think I'm going to get gel nails as well...I think it will look nice when I'm doing the parties and everyone looks at my hands! hehe.
Ooh how exciting packing for your holiday!!! Glad you're all organised.
I got Michael a couple of Pink dvd's for fathers day but I really want to get him a Wii remote and game....the pack they do seems to have sold out of everywhere I've been though - grrr....
K - gotta go - I'm buggered! Chat later!
-
Hey Cindy - can you PM me the details for the party on Saturday so I can figure out how to get there? :D thanks!
Well, big meeting at creche was tongiht. there were mums crying and everything. the director was there, the CEO of the company, and someone else, not sure who she was. I actually feel sorry for the director now having to work for that woman. ugh my skin crawls just thinking about it.
Not confident anything will come of it but will have to wait and see. they sure got a better turnout than they were anticipating though, we had to swap to a different room.
-
Rachel what was the creche meeting about? Why were people crying, that sounds full on.
Krisite great news on getting your kit. Its great you like the products that will help heaps. Poor Michael having Dylan cry whilst you are out. I guess he is going thru a "mummy" phase at the moment. Jordan went thru a daddy phase for a while and it was awful. I hated it.
Nikki WOW Grant is spoilt.
Well Jamie took today off as he couldnt be bothered LOL He has taken Jordan with him to his mums, they are organising last minute stuff. I am here cleaning the house (well I have finished it now). Hopefully it will stay clean thru out the day and tomorrow (we are both at work) so should be ok.
So excited now, Its really close now.
Just talking to my GF about 3 year old kinder. Are any of you going to send your kids to 3 year old kinder? They cant go till next, next year but I am not sure what I will do.
Hope you are enjoying another glorious day.
-
no phone call yet......
harry had his immuniastion yesterday and so is a bit out of soughts,it was very late because he was always unwell to have it,i was dreading giving it to him simply cos i dont want him to be unwell again but it had to be done,he is not too bad,just a temp and sore legs.
kristie,i can book you in for a party,what day were you hoping for,did you want to do day or evening,week day or weekend,let me know i am pretty flexible
nikki
-
tracey i only did 4 y.o kinder with my boys so will probably do the same again i think.
-
I only did 4yo kinder.
If Milo is at creche when he is 3 he'll do 3yo kinder or same for 4. I will hopefully be on m/l for one of those years though and then he can go to real kindy.
I'm looking at it ATM, becuase as far as I can tell we have no council 3yo kinder program in my area.
Tracey - lots of issues with creche, I have a thread about it in the Childcare/kinder forum. rosters/sleeprooms/continuity of care etc.
I'm going to put his name down at one or 2 other centres unless things pick up, and or he is moved to the next age group room (which should have happened 3 months ago but its full) pretty soon, everywhere has a wait list now in my area.
To add to this, one of his teachers (my fabourite one) resigned this week.
Nikki - good luck I hope you don't get the phone call.
-
well i thought the phone would ring and it DID!!!!!
-
oh no! Did they tell you how you went at all? Do you have an idea of what to revise (i.e. do you remember the types of q's you had to guess?)
-
Hi!
What a beautiful day!! Louis had gymbaroo and had a ball! Didn't want to go to sleep but he is now luckily!
Rachael - Wow at the meeting at creche...sound really full on...I hope they get it all sorted soon...doesn't really sound good enough!! Bugger at the teacher resigning though...I can't believe there are so many waiting lists...it must definitely relate to area though because the one Louis went to last year wasn't full at all!!
Tracey - Not long to go! Sounds like your getting very organised which is great!
Yep - we'll definitely be doing 3yo kinder - Louis doesn't go to childcare or playgroup so I think it will be really good for him!
Nikki - Oh no!!! You poor thing...at least you can resit it - I'm sure you'll blitz it next time... I think you're a superwoman doing all this study and looking after your family!!! Don't be too disappointed - it happens to heaps of people!!
Poor Harry getting his needles...glad he isn't feeling too bad...Yuck - at least there's no more for a while now!
Umm - anytime suits me - just depends on when you think you can get people to come! Preferably by the 26th Sept though as thats the end of the month for TBS! You let me know what suits you...
K - chat later!
-
just went for a beautiful walk with the kids,that is the 3rd one this week,i just love this weather,just found out that i have lice too.....aaarrrgggg! i checked chantelles hair and she still has them aswell,
thought i would let you off the hook now and tell you that uni did ring.......to tell me i PASSED!!!!!!hehehe!im such a joker arnt i.
kristie,how about friday evening on the 21st at about 7.30,i finish my clinical placement that day.
nikki
-
Nikki congrats on passing the test, you are such a practical joker. Bugger about the lice, hope it clears up soon for you both. Hope Harry feels better soon after his needles.
Krisite I think Louis would enjoy 3 yr old kinder aswell. He is such a clever little boy. Glad you had fun at gymbaroo. Jordan also didnt want to go to sleep this arvo, but he has finally fell asleep. When I went in he has pulled more of the border off the wall LOL
Rachel I think you should def try and move Milo to another creche if you can. He certainly should be in the room for this age and not held back. I hope the issues get sorted.
-
Kristie - The boys are well again. :clap: But unfortunately yesterday I came down with the gastro. It hit like a ton of bricks, and much worse than the boys.
Nikki - Congrats on passing :clap:
Tracey - When are you leaving on your holiday?
Melissa
-
Hi!
Nikki -You're in such big trouble!!! LOL. You and your pranks!!! Congratulations!!! Yeah on the walks - perfect weather for it!! Bugger at the lice...
Yep - the 21st suits me! I'll leave Louis at home but will have to bring Dylan as I'll have to leave pretty early to get over in time!
Trace - Hope your getting all ready and packed!!
Melissa - Oh no....you poor thing! I hope you feel better really soon!
Chat later - I'm off for an 1 hour massage soon!! Aaahhh bliss!
-
Nikki - congrats!! I cant believe you have palyed a joke on here again, your such a bugger with that! Bugger on the lice, we seemed to have missed it so far.
Rachel i will PM you my address for saturday! The creche business sounds pretty full on!
Tracey - have a ball!!!! I know you will though, take a heap of pics for us and i am not shy about receiving gifts I should warn you now!
I went to the gym today and signed up! I am going back again tomorrow to get my programme etc! The girls wil be going into creche there for the very first time ever! I hope tori is ok with them, charlottoe will be fine, she smiles for anyone!
BEst be off, time to get some house work done!!
-
Hi!
Cindy - Yeah at joining the gym - good for you!! and here's me giving it up! LOL! I signed over the rest of my membership to my Mum!!
