me first,seeya tomorrow girls,hope you can make it kristie,i am bringing sandiches.

[Krisvee]

Hi!

Hmm...I won't get there until at least 1pm??? Maybe I should come over on another day...I'd miss kinder but we haven't been for the last 2 weeks...

Will post properly tomorrow...at some point?? Things have been busy! Reno'd the shower and built the fence on the weekend - well Michael and his dad did...looks good...

Had a drive out to Narre Warren today and looks like a winner! Hopefully we'll sell here soon so we can go and buy over there....everything looked so nice (from the outside - LOL)

Boys are well...I'm tired - off to bed in a minute - I was up to 2am finalising paperwork and clearing up crap in my room...so stupid and I've paid for it all day by being super grumpy - LOL! Lucky Michael was home and we took the kids to swimming together - which they just absolutely loved!!

OK - sweet dreams everyone!

[cindyb]

Yay Kristie! Become a narre warren chick with me!

[deancey]

Kristie sorry you couldnt make it but would love to catch up soon. I should be ok to drive in about 3 weeks (thank goodness) I hope you do find a house you like and it would be nice to live so close to Cindy. I cant believe you are nearly half way thru preg, it has gone so quickly this time. Good to hear the boys enjoyed you both taking them swimming. I think Jordan liked it when Liam and I went also, he was a real show off.

Well thanks ladies for a lovely morning and thanks for the food. The kids had a ball I think and Jordan was knackered by the time you all left, he went to bed no hassle. Liam did a massive projectile vomit after you all left so I now smell like BM so really need to have a shower again I think.
I am so impressed that the kids get along ( even with the tantis they have with eachother) I am rapted that Jordan has some nice friends and hopefully will remain friends for ever.

Nikki Chantelle is just so cute with Liam I love the way she loves him and tries to do everything for him. Harry is just a spunk and I think Jordan enjoys playing cars with him.

Cindy your girls were gorgeous as usual and I cant get over how grown up Charlotte is. I hope they had a good sleep on the way home as they certainly looked as though they would.

Alex it was awesome to meet you and Toby. I cant wait to meet Jack aswell. Toby is a real stunner and such a good little boy. OH and the cupcakes were devine, so not sharing those with Jamie LOL

Well so glad the internet is now fixed so I can get my BB fix for the day.
take care, only an hour will the milk bar is meant to open again so better get some stuff done before Jamie gets home.

Anyway better go and hang out my washing..
Again...lovely to see u all today!!

[deancey]

Alex I got both cupcakes YUMMY thanks again they were delish

Well today playgroup was at playcentre and it was awesome. It was a smaller one but had great facilities and it meant I could see Jordan from the tables. He had an absolute ball and even went to the toilet twice so NO accidents SO PROUD.
I did my 1st BF in public with Liam. He was so good sleeping most of the time there I was a little nervous about chasing Jordan around if he was unsettled but he did wonderful. He did a massive projectile vomit though just as I put him into his car seat, he was soaked and so was the car seat. He has done this 3 times now,vomits up what looks like an entire feed but will settle and sleep so mustn't be hungry still? Maybe he drinks too much and gets rid of excess? Might ask MHN when we go on monday

Nikki we are going to this playcentre every 2nd wednesday if you want to bring the kids along. It will be me, nadine, her sister and one of her friends. I think the kids would love it. Its jungle mania on keilor melton hwy. Let me know if you want to come along.

Off to hang some washing out. take care

HI Ladies

Just thought I would let you know Kirsty had little Toby. She has pics of him on facebook, he is a cutie and Kirsty looks fantastic.
WELCOME TOBY

MAN it is pouring rain here, guess the washing wont be dry

[Pandora]

oh yay! welcome to Toby

We have a busy weekend. Our land finally settled on wednesday (hooray) so noe the real dramas can start! yipee!

Milo has a first birthday party to go to on Sunday, and the rest of our time will be spent cleaning and making lists of things we can pack away to put into storage.

Nikki - does grant do rendering?

[nicole mckay]

congrats to kirsty and welcome tobe,i bet she is thrilled she has a healthy little cherub to add to the family.
racheal,grant does render if you want to have a chat with him give us a call.9743 9196.
nikki

[Pandora]

Nikki - thanks for that I think I will. I want to get our sunroom rendered before we sell the house.

Having a time of it with getting Milo to sleep. He wont go to sleep in the day for me or Neil, but is fine for mum, MIL and daycare.

At the moment he is punching and kicking the door in his bedroom saying its playtime and that he isnt going to sleep *sigh* He's really tired too poor little guy.

Im going to do osmehting in the slow cooker for dinner tonight, depending if Milo sleeps and what time he wakes up cos I've just discovered I'm missing some major ingredients. So it will either be beef burgendy or beef and barley casserole depening how little bikus crankus goes.

[deancey]

Rachel I am sorry to hear you are having a tough time with Milos naps. It can be really hard to keep your cool when they are playing up I am sure you are doing fine though. I hope its just a phase and it sorts itself for you soon

well today we have had an unsettled day with Liam. We were out shoppingand he didnt sleep in between feeds took ages to get him settled. We are going out for tea tonight so I am hoping he will be ok in the pram.
take care
