Babies Born October - November 2005 #21

[Krisvee]

Hi!

LOL at Charlottes tantrum...well you know what I mean...I wouldn't dare have Dylan out of the pram or trolley while we're out! You know how quick he is getting away!
Bugger at having open for inspection tomorrow - at least it doesn't really matter cos it's not your place!!!!
Was meant to have people through yesterday and they cancelled - grrr - so no. Having Ofi tomorrow at 12pm but then they called up to bring someone through at 10.30am - what a pain in the butt. I was going to get all the housework done in the morning...Oh well - if it's not done when they get through too bad.
Oh no at your bath! What a confidence boost! When I had a bath with the boys the other week I could see Louis having a good look at everything but he didn't say anything!! LOL!

I think I'm going to tidy the kitchen and curl up in bed with a magazine! Haven't done that in ages!

nikki I can get rid of the 3 tickets for you I dont think they will mind if 1 is infront of the other. If you want me to ask them if they still want them let me know. I also put the money into your account for you tonight.

Well Liam did exceptionally well today with his feeds. He went 5.5 hrs from 4-9.30 I am hoping he might repeat this for the next feed so I am not up at 1.30 (although I am not minding tv in the middle of the night, thanks to foxtel)
Jordan also went the entire day with no accidents and we were at the shps for most of it. He went to the toilet at the shops and didnt go again till we got home. I was so proud.
We went on shopping spre for the boys. We bought SO much stuff (all clothes) We spent $130 in target and about $100 in best and less. We got some gorgeous outfits.

CIndy LOL at the girls commenting on your bits.....its a little funny. Oops over the tanti though I am sure you can laugh about it now though. Its never funny whilst its happening.

OKoff to bed have my brothers wedding tomorrow so better get some rest so I dont havebags under my eyes.

I finished my level 2 first aid course today! yay. It was today and yesterday, and work paid which was a bonus.
I reckon my work has an unsually hight percentage of qualified first aiders, there would be at least 40% of the employees if not more.

Cindy - they poured the slab this morning and we are meeting with our site manager (who we've nicknamed XXX the dodgy site manager based on a friends experience) on Tuesday morning to go over the plans, timelines etc.
Also dads friend does site inspections on large projects, and has offered to come along to all of our stage inspections. He said if anything is outside the guidelines he should be able to spot it, and we shouldnt make our stage payments until the problems have been fixed (This is wher the 'dodgy site manager ' comes in. Someone I know had the same guy as us and still had unresolved problems that had been identifed months earlier, when they got the keys!)

So thats a huge relief that there will be someone who knows what to look for!

A valuer is coming over on 1st July to look at the house. I want it on the market and to be sold, and us renting ASAP as is will be a lot easier on the finances, but am worried about being able to get a short term rental, so might have to look at a 6 month settlement or something like that - I guess I will talk to the RE guy about it when he comes.

Milo has been watching a tv show called 'in the night garden' and is a bit obsessed. MIL said he is mesmorised by it (normally he just lets it go on in the background except the wiggles) so I got him some of the books and he loves them.

Kristie, I think I need some letter/alphabet books where the kids can trace letters, do you have anything like that in the range (Im thinking DK probably). Milo knows most of his letter and can pick out the right one if we ask him, and tells us words that start with that sound, so I figure I should be encouraging him.

Dora - Im getting tix to that tomorrow morning, SIL wants to take her nephew so we will go together cos the kids are the same age and get along really well, well as much as kids do!

okay, sore neck..its still not 100%. off to have my scrabulous move then bed.

does anyone know about what happened to the 2 toddlers on the news and the mother being a bb member,what happened who was she?

[Pandora]

no? I havent heard anything about it? What was it?

[Krisvee]

Hi!

Well, we only had 2 people through our OFI today but 1 of them came back a couple of hours later for a second look so I assume thats a good sign...I so hope they put an offer in!

Tracey - Glad you had a good day with the boys! Ooh I hope your brothers wedding went well! How fun! I haven't been to a wedding in ages! Yeah at shopping as well!

Rachael - Thats great your work paid for first aid training! I really should do something like that...I have no clue...
Yeah at your slab being poured - how exciting! Thats so nice you've got someone to go over it with you - an expert eye is always as good thing in that situation! I hope it all goes smoothly for you though!
With regard to renting - I wouldn't tell them you want a short term rental...there's such a demand for them at the moment I would be surprised if you'd find something...It's easy to get out of rental contracts - you usually just have to pay a week or 2 extra to give them time to find someone else...check with your real estate agent of course but we did it when we were renting in Bayswater and we finished it early...
LOL - I'm so not a fan of in the night garden! I think it's crap but my boys like it as well...I always turn it over (does that make me a bad mum? LOL)
Yep - we do have some great books - they can use like a whiteboard marker and then wipe it off and do it again! Louis loves it and does some really good letters now! Did you have a catalogue still? Do you want me to send one so you can have a look?
Yeah at going to Dora...I'll just have to see how the finances go at the moment...

Nikki - Yes, I stayed up last night reading the thread on it...yep - it used to be a mum on BB but that was when she was a nice mum if that makes sense...It's soooo sad and heartbreaking....the details are awful. Kelly has removed all her posts and links to baby photos etc now...too many people were doing searches apparently...
I know they've been charged with counts of torture and murder I think???? Something like that...There's a thread in the news/current affairs section...
It is just so sad and awful...the poor babies...how could anyone do that to their kids...Apparently they weighed only 3.5/4kg when they were found...urgghh...the suffering they must have gone through is to hard to think about...
I do find it odd though that no-one realised something was wrong...The dad - living in the same house - said he hadn't seen them for 6 months - WTF?????
Anyway...I'm going to stop now as I'll just rant and rave about it....

Having a quiet night tonight....Chat later!

[nicole mckay]

yes i found the thread her name was cheeki28 did any of you chat with her,i cant recall ever posting with her but she was active when we were all prg with our last babies,she was also prg with her twins.
i am having a very hard time emotionally after reading about it all.nikki

[Krisvee]

No Nikki, I never chatted with her I don't think...

I just find it all so hard to comprehend...there seems to be so many unanswered questions as to how it could happen...
Those poor babies...
