Babies Born October - November 2005 #21

Well Chacha got her needles and was a sook! She is over it now though so its all good!
Tori decided today not to have a sleep which is doing my head in coz we had a bad night with her last night (always do thursday nights after child care) and she ended up in bed with me and al slept in her bed!

Rachael - i see on another thread that you have your glasses- are you getting used to them? It took me a while to get used to mine and even now (coz im slack aat wearing them) when i wear them it takes an hour or so for my eyes to work out whats happening.

I dont know what to say about the pepper thing - I have never heard of it and am thinking its not the best thing for the kids mouthes or gums (dental nurse is coming out in me ) but hey, each to their own! It wouldnt work with my girls anyway -they love all things peppery and spicy!

Whats everyone got on this weekend?

We have no plans, I dont have any parties this weekend, did one the other night which was great got 3 bookings from it! I should take a holiday from tupperware more often!

Better go cook tea - have just had people looking through the house again so didnt want to cook with them here!

Kristie- did the interested people come back with the other 5k?

Cindy - Nup...at this stage they're not going to budge the real estate agent said...Lousy buggers - LOL! We had someone else come through today and we have another ofi tomorrow so we'll just keep waiting...
Hope Tori wasn't too feral for you this afternoon! I ended up putting Louis down for a sleep cos he was being horrible and then Dylan wouldn't sleep - I can't win! LOL!
Louis helped me make pizza tonight - it was so cute and he was so proud of himself...he sets the table everynight now as well and when we all thanked him for dinner he just sat smiling and goes - your welcome! So cute...
Yeah on a great party the other day....I've got no work at the moment which means it's been quite peaceful - although I've still been placing orders - just not doing parties...We've got a pretty quiet weekend other than the ofi tomorrow and then Lea's b'day coffee and cake on Sunday...Probably good that we don't have too much on now with Dylan being sick...Michael's working tomorrow...ummm thats about it!
I know it's really sad to say but I'm actually enjoying not having much on - even socially - It's just been a drain keeping the house so clean etc that I just don't feel like I have much energy for anything else...Gosh...I sound like an old woman...LOL!

Tracey - pepper would have to be better than tabasco sauce. I know of 2 families that dot it on kids tongues as a way to curb bad behaviour. I freaked out when I was told that's what they do.

Thanks for the advice on the electric blanket thing. Benjamin actually slept in his bed the whole night last night for a change. He has a knack for working things out. He already knows how to plug things in and turn them on without being shown. Scary stuff. I think I might take the greener option and just keep him dressed warm and maybe add another blanket.

Good idea Melissa...

Gosh it's so frustrating - the last 2 times I've tried to have a nap the phone rings or the kids don't sleep much etc etc...it ends up putting me in such a grumpy mood that I wish I didn't try to sleep at all...Sorry for the vent! I just feel soooo tired...I bought some iron tablets as I'm wondering if thats part of it...
Had Ofi - 3 couples through, 1 being a second look and we also have people coming through at 5pm for a second inspection from a couple of weeks ago...I'm so over it I just want it to sell!!!
Louis has been so super feral at the moment and I think my stress over keeping the house tidy is freaking him out...I feel really awful...
Looks like I'm coming down with the cold Dylan has...grrr...poor little thing fell asleep on the couch this morning cos I couldn't put him to bed so I then had to wake him to so we could get out of here for ofi...he fell asleep again on our way home and had a big sleep and then woke up and fell back asleep in my arms...poor little munchkin - he can't even get a proper sleep at home at the moment...

Sorry for venting big time...I wish I could have a glass of wine - LOL! Hope you're all enjoying your weekend!

OMG!!! Congratulations!! Did you get the asking price?

Now the search for your new castle! I have been watching Narre the last few weeks on realestate.com and there are a few nice ones out there!

[Krisvee]

Thanks Cindy!!!!

Obviously they have a 3 day cooling off and they're getting a building inspection and then 14 days for finance but they've bought it!!

And the best part - For basically top dollar!!! Woohooo!!!!!

That means we'll have the money when we buy to get our new house painted and new flooring before we move in! Wooohooo!!!!

Yep - we'll head out to Narre next weekend and start our search!! Very exciting!!

WOW!!! CONGRATS Kristie!! That must be a huge weight off your shoulders!! And not having to keep the house spotless all the time too!!
Now the fun starts, looking for a new house!

Melissa, Hi.. I'm pretty new here so you're prob thinkin who am I?? Anyway, I'm sure I'll get to know you soon.. And I think that rugging them up warmer is a better idea..

Nikki, OMG.. what bad luck!! Lucky you took it in for a service hey!! I hope you and Grant managed to find a car today!

Cindy, Glad you've had a quiet weekend with no parties, but thats great to have booked in 3 from 1 party!!

Well, I've just got home from dinner out at a thai rest and then we went across the road to our local club.. The dinner was lovely, although I'm still hungry and have just had a cuppa, 2 saladas and a choc spider!
The club started off ok, but as it got busier and busier, it took us almost 1/2 an hour to get a drink and we all felt like sardines!! They just let too many people in and they are all like 14 I swear!! I felt so old!!Hehehehe
Anyway was nice to get out and I'm now feeling mighty tired so I'd better get to bed..
Chat soon ladies..xoxo
