Nikki, sure you can bring whomever you like! The more the merrier.
We arent moving this weekend, but a lot of our furniture will be going into storage, or to my parents place (its soo nice that they are on holidays and will come home to that lovely surprise!) and some to the op shop.
We are moving Grand Final weekend, in to my Aunty's place until our house is finished, which is currently on track for Milos b'day 21/11.
i had a peek last week, its all locked up but all the plastering, kitchen etc are done i think its mainky flooring, cleaning and painting left to go. And putting in appliances but thats always last.
Kristie aw I hope Dylan is feeling better soon.
Milos had a runny nose but thats it so far. They had pyjama day at creche today! woohoo he was so excited about that!
-
Rachel - I spoke to kim today (Linen chick) she is having some dramas with her pregnancy and has asked her manager to do you party - have you been told that yet?? SHe is really nice kim says!
I wont be able to make it sorry- totally forgot about one of the parties being first thing and about 2 hours drive so i dont want a late night. I was hoping to come so i could order some towels but i wanted to have a feel of them... hopefully someone else will have a party - i missed out on Sallys one too!
-
Rachael - i spoke to sally and she didnt order my apron so i will give you a call tomorrow! Actually i dont think i have you number - am using an old phone while mine gets fixed and stupidly i had everyones numbers on the old phone! Driving me crazy!
It is a pink apron - very mrs cleaver! Halterneck - pink and comes in munchkin sizes too, i have ordered the munchkin size for the girls but i think tori would get a kick out of it of her and i could match too!
My linen order is arriving wed/thurs this week so i will let you know when i get it and we can catch up at some stage!

Hi!
Well, we're officially starting our move! We had our final inspection this morning and other than them being in a mess as they've still got boxes everywhere, everything looks pretty good...oh they've also taken the wall brackets for the plasma which I'm not sure they're allowed to take so we just have to look into that...
The boys loved running around the house and the backyard and even had tantrums when we had to leave so I'll take that as a good sign! It's all pretty much as I remember although I probably had remembered the back yard as being a bit bigger than it is...it's pretty small!
So Michael has taken the first load in the truck over there now and he'll spend tomorrow doing hopefully 2 or 3 more...should get the bulk of everything out of the house and then he'll just do ute loads through the week...I didn't realise he was taking Thursday as well as Friday off so thats a bit of a relief!
Rachael - I hope your linen party goes well tonight! Oooh not long until your new house is ready then! How exciting! It's going to be sooo nice moving into a brand new house I'm sure!
Cindy - Sorry I didn't drop in...It was pouring with rain when we left to come home and I got sidetracked! LOL! I will soon for sure! Wow at having 2 parties tomorrow - I hope they go well...gosh 2 hours away is a long drive - I hope you get big sales!
Alex - Happy Birthday to Jack! Woohoo!
Ok...might chill out for a bit - Dylan's finally gone down for a nap and Louis is absorbed in the tv...I'm so tired at the moment it's really starting to annoy me...take away for dinner tonight I think!
-
Kristie, unless the wall brackets were specifically listed under the chattels in your contract, they can take them.
I am sure the people who bought our place will think they are getting the freestanding island bench in the kitchen, but its not part of the house and its not staying.
Usually whats covered is curtains or window coverings, internal and external, air con. water service, heating, light fittings, plants unless they are freestanding potplants, stove, oven, exhaust fans etc.
Well, Neil moved some stuff today eith my brother, but his cousin calcelled, which meant no van, so they could only move what would fit int he back of our station wagon. I am so not impressed. :(
Neil has thursday and Friday off and his cousin has said he will come with the van then, but who knows? Im not holding my breath, incase he gets a better offer :(
In that case I can hire a 3tonne furniture van and do it all in one go but its just getting someone to help with the lifting that will be the issue. We'll see what happens, maybe his cus. will come through.
-
well OMG what a full on weekend. Jamies party was awesome, we didnt finish u till 5am this morning and were up again at 9am to babies and a house that desperatly needed cleaning. We then went to Jamies cousins 1st bday and have just had a snooze on the couch whilst the boys are in bed. We are all knackered. I will post some pics on facebook for you all the look at
Nikki Thats so exciting your boys get to go into the mosh pit, I am rapted and it was my pleasure really. I cant wait to hear all about it.
Sorry this is short its time to arange tea and then off to bed i think I am buggered.
-
Hi!
What a gorgeous day it was yesterday! We had mum b'day bbq and the kids played outside which was nice..although Michael was moving all day! He got heaps done but there is still so much left to go...he'll be doing a ute load each night this week as well and then finish everything on Thursday...
Rachael - Thanks for that...it was only that the real estate agent told us they would be staying that we were a bit annoyed about it...we're not going to make a fuss though - it's not that big a deal. They're leaving shelves and workbench in the garage so Michaels happy with that! It's just a pain that we'll have to patch up the wall I suppose...
What a bugger that his cousin cancelled - you don't need that at this late stage! Hopefully he helps out on Thur/Fri!
Tracey - So glad the party went so well - omg at being up to 5am in the morning!!! I can't remember the last time I stayed up so late! (oh...hang on...maybe a certain toy sale - hehe) You must be so buggered! I hope you managed to get some decent sleep to catch up!
Off to do some food shopping to day that doesn't involve using an oven for the rest of the week and allows me to pack most of the kitchen...I can see it being really healthy stuff- LOL! I think this week will definitely end up being a bit of an adventure as we start to dwindle down the furniture! LOL! Not sure how we'll sleep when we get to the house as we've got to get the carpets cleaned on the Friday arvo..might be camping out in the family room while they dry! LOL!
While we're out today I'm going to try and tempt Louis into getting a present with his dummy...he's excited about the present aspect but definitely not happy about getting rid of his dummy...I told him though that the dummy fairies will either come when he turns 3 or he can trade it in for a pressie now...I'm sure he'll get caught up in buying something but not sure how he'll go at bedtime...I just think it's time for him to get rid of it though...I'm such a mean mum! LOL!
ok...chat later!
-
kristie,i hear ya on the dummy,chantelle has just moved up to the kinder room at creche and they have been encouraging her to sleep without her dummy and i belive they have had some success.
im not proud to say it but c is going into the residential sleep program again next month with me for a week.i am going to use this time to get rid of her dummy also.we r still having huge dramas with her at night and grant cant cope with it anymore,she targets him every night.i already know what to do to break her naughty night time habits but dont think it will be fun for anyone else in the house to have to hear her crying at night,plus i need the support as i am a sook and give in too easily.
we just came back from kmart,we went down and bought the new wiggles dvd and a baby pool,poor harry fell out of the trolley straight onto his head while i was paying for our items,he has a huge egg and bruising,i had a freaking heart attack.he was upset for quit some time.i gave him some nurofen and did some obs,he is asleep now but i will be watching him closely.
james has gone to the show today and has a list of showbags to bring home for the other kids,they r going to be sooooooooooooo excited.
ok i have a question,i have decided that i would like to do a kids birthday party for c.she wants to do it at the waves pool here in melton but i can only do it on a week day.they set up the toddler pool with lots of toys and a lady goes in with them and they play games and have a dico in there with hi 5 songs and wiggles songs etc and is fully catered..she has been invited to so many bday parties from her friends at crech so i thought it would be nice to invite them to hers but i want as many of u guys to come also cos i think they would love it.i was hoping for monday the 13th or wednesday the 15th oct.r any of u free for either of those days.
we spent the day installing new lights over the kitchen bench and in the pool area,they look fab.
tracey im glad the party went well,omg 5 am i would die,how did the kids go with all the noise were they able to sleep.
nikki
-
Nikki - you poor thing witht the sleeping being such a stess for everyone!
We still have dramas with tori but have resigned ourselves to that just being her -we usually end up with one or the other in bed with us at some stage of the night!
I can ot do the 13th - i have MCHN appts for both the girls that day, sounds like qa gret set up though!
We had a great weekend - got the back yard tidies up again - went to bunnings and bought some plants and goreous pots for inside next to the fire.
today though we are having dramas with our washing machine not working at all - it was just a cheap one so we have decided to get a new one but geepers - when does the spending end? We are going to have to work out a budget soon! WE have NEVER lived by a budget but we are geting really bad with spending at the moment so i think its time to slow it down a bit! Tighten those purse strigs as the saying goes!
-
can u do the monday the 13th cindy?
-
Nikki, How's Harry man? I hope he is ok. Jack did that to me when he was Harry's age and I had a heart attack too!!
I'm free for monday the 13th... What time would it be approx?? Does sound like a great idea luv...
Rach, thanks for a nice night on Sat...It is lovely stuff isn't it!! And sorry I kept you up so late chatting..next time just tell me to shut up!
Cindy, no wonder you're in the garden lately..with all this nice weather!
Trace, so glad to hear the party was a success!! And I hope you caught up on your sleep too!!
We'll prob be at Liam's christening on Sun, depending on how much packing we've done!!hehehe..but I'll def let u know on Sat ok..
Kris, good luck with the dummy..I'm going to get rid of Jack's too when we get back from QLD..
-
Hi!
Nikki - What a bugger you're still having sleep dramas...sounds like a good idea to do the sleep program again...
Ouch - poor Harry, I hope he's ok! Louis fell out of the toddler seat of the pram once and that was awful...
Yeah at showbags - my mums going to the show with her new boyfriend tomorrow (Gosh - makes them sound like they're 16 not 60!) and so I'm getting her to get a few for me as well...Ethans going to give them one each when he arrives and the other I'll use for stocking fillers...I hope James had fun - the weather was shocking today!
I'm pretty sure I would be free for those dates but I'll just have to play it by ear a bit...I'm finding it more of a challenge taking the boys out at the moment and the pools would be full on I'm sure...Just walking around the shops today I had heaps of sharp pains on my cervix and braxton hicks...I can't believe how early it's all started this time around...It sounds like lots of fun though!
Cindy - Yeah at working in the backyard! Bugger about your washing machine though...Budgets are never fun but necessary sometimes...
Alex - How exciting getting ready for your holiday!
Well, we had a great but busy day...I forgot it was school holidays and the shops were soooo busy! They had Angelica from rugrats there and the boys were so excited! She came over and shook Louis hand and played peek a boo with them and they were laughing...she was very cheeky to other people too which was quite amusing.
We looked everywhere for In the night garden toys for Louis but all the shops seem to have sold out so he hasn't redeemed his dummy yet BUT....
HE WENT TO SLEEP WITHOUT HIS DUMMY! OMG!!!!!
I nearly died...it got to bed time and I just said maybe he'd like to try without his dummy and if he couldn't get to sleep he could come and get it...10min went by, 20min, 30min - he hasn't woken up yet! Maybe it won't be so easy tomorrow but I just nearly died that I didn't even have a battle - no tears, nothing! and he's so addicted to it at the moment, well more in the mornings I have to remind him to take it out cos he's awake now and not asleep...Anyway, I'm very proud of him...I might have to take him to the abc shop on Wed to see if they have anything...
As for me...I'm off to bed...I have bad sciatic pain and my back is killing let alone this cheeky bubs headbutting my cervix...he gives me heartburn overnight cos he floats up higher but if I spend much time walking around he must drop right down low...
The packing is not helping and Michael is doing extra trips each night so I'm doing the bath and bed thing to...it's just the lifting of everything that gets me...
Ok...I"m rambling now...sweet dreams everyone!
-
OH, i just saw how bad my speed typing was earlier- no i cant do the monday sorry!
-
Morning!
Well, Louis slept through the whole night without his dummy! Woohoo! Although he woke up at 6am but stayed in bed for another 30min and then went to watch some tv so not too bad...
A day of packing for us ahead...
Cindy - Love the madagascar stuff - can't wait!
Chat later!
-
Alex - Happy belated birthday wishes to Jack...:clap:
Nikki - That's sounds like a great setup at the pool for a birthday party. I'd love to do something like that for Benjamin's birthday. None of them offer that sort of thing here though.
Anyhow, we've got my sister's 21st birthday this week with the party on the wk/end with the family. The following wk/end on saturday the 4th of October it will be Benjamin's
3rd birthday.

Hi Guys
well as some of you know I passed my entrance test to the nursing course, now I have to sit oral test session on the 9th oct ( i got the date wrong before ). I am excited but wish it was earlier as this process seems to be dragging, I just want to know whether I will be getting in or not.
Kristie Yeah on Louis sleeping without the dummy thats an awesome step.
Melissa sounds as though you have a few busy weekends Cant beleive Benjamin will be 3 in 2 weeks.
Cindy I hope you find the practice test good. I know I did.
Alex I would love for you guys to make it sunday but understand if you cant so dont stress to much.
OK well i am off to get ready for all saints. take care everyone
-
Hi!
Melissa - Yeah, it's party time! How are you feeling?
Tracey - Congratulations again! Thats so great - I'm sure you'll do fine on the next test as well!
Lots of packing today...got the boys room done so they just have beds in there and a few clothes and mums coming around tomorrow and we're going to pack the kitchen...I'm not officially not doing anything as my sciatic pain is killing me! The boys have been trying with tantrums and Louis is doing so much backchatting...I'm really hoping it's just all the commotion and when we settle into the new house hopefully they will calm down...
Louis has gone to sleep again tonight without his dummy! Woohoo! He mentioned it before bed but I just said it's gone now and changed the subject and he didn't fuss...
Otherwise not much from me...
Chat later!
-
well grant is on cloud nine,he has finally found the house he wants to renovate,we put an offer in last night that they accepted,it is in melton,he will have to spend a lot of hours and about 30k on it and then we will put it back on the market and make some dollars ,he will just use that money to do the next and the next.so i am pleased for him and say...congrats grant on your new found hobby!!!
-
cool Nikki! i hope it goes well & he makes some $$ on it!
Kristie sorry about the sciatica, i hope it stops for you soon. I;ve had it once, but not while pg, i fell to the ground quite suddenly, crossing the road in the city! very embarrassing!
Melissa sounds busy busy busy at your place, all these birthdays and things! I hope Benjamin has a great 3rd birthday!
Tracey I'm still hoping to come on Sunday, it will depend a bit on how much moving and things we have got left to do cos I'm aiming to be all moved out by Sunday night.
Well not much news here, feeling queasy. I got a letter in the mail today with my appts for the pg, it hink they're ve booked me in tot he wrong program so Im going to have to ring them again tomorrow to confirm (for the third time!) that they have put me down for the caseload program.
-
Hi!
Louis got his pressie today for his dummy - he chose the figurines from In the night garden and a book and the boys have been playing all afternoon with them...very cute and perfect timing to keep them occupied while I've been busy! Got heaps packed - our room done and most of the kitchen - which mum mostly did...
I had my chiro appt today and while my lower back and neck feel great unfortunately there's nothing much she can do for my sciatica...I'm sure it's just that bubs is head down that it's causing so much pressure...I'm finished packing for the night now as it's absolutely killing me...I've obviously been lifting too much stuff but there's not much I can do about that at the moment...
Nikki - Yeah on Grant starting his new hobby!
Rachael - Omg at falling over with it once...how scary! Hope you get the midwife stuff sorted. Bugger at feeling queasy...Hope it doesn't get any worse for you!
Chat later!
-
Kristie thats awesome Louis had gotten rid of his dummy well done. Try and take is easy even though its easier said than done I am sure.
Cindy Did you do those practice tests? I hope you find them helpful, I sure did.
Well still no results in the mail, I want to know my score, I am getting might impatient. I just found out I wont know if I have gotten a place till late nov early dec, seems ages away. So better think of other things I guess.
My brothers wife was induced today, last I heard she was in 2nd stage labour at around 7 so we will see what happens. I should be going to visit my neice or nephew tomorrow night after work. They are naming bubs either Edward or Sophie.
Off to bed for a day at work tomorrow.
-
Hi!
We're all moved! Well...there's crap everywhere and I can't unpack much because the house needs a good clean...it was left quite dirty...
The people left quite a bit of stuff here including a swing set, outside table and patio heater (don't know if it works yet!)
We got out of our house on time but settlement was meant to be at 12pm and we got the call at 12.30 saying the comm bank didn't turn up and they had a big drama and luckily rescheduled to 2.30pm...didn't end up being too much of a hassle, just time wasted, we got the keys around 3pm...
The kids had a super late night but have gone to sleep without too much of a hassle so hopefully they sleep ok in their new bedroom!
It's so exciting having our new place! I haven't hardly been in half of it as it's so much bigger! I'm sure it won't take me to long to get used to though!
Tracey - Gosh it's hard having to wait so long for your results! Ooh how exciting have a new bubs in the family! How did she go?
Heading to bed soon! Going to have a big day tomorrow trying to get stuff sorted out and I desperately have to do food shopping as we have none! LOL! Chat later!
-
Krisite congrats on the move going relativly smoothly and bonus on the swing set, table and patio heater, thats is they are in good working order that is.
Well I am an aunty :) Sophie was born last night via c section as labour didnt progress I would say. My brother is so vague with all the details so I am assuming she wasnt dialating. I am going to see her tonight as I have to work all day today. I asked mum for a photo but she hasnt answered her mobile ARGH why have one if you dont answer it. So frustrating.
We are getting ready for christening tomorrow, all food bought so now just have to clean the house again for everyone to come over.
Better do some work I Guess
-
congratulations to tracey on the new arrival,kristie,on the move and to hawthorn on a great win,i think i have a premature hangover.drank all day and have just got home,kids in bed and me too soon.

Hi!
Had a great day! Mum pretty much cleaned the whole house and we got it all tidy and everything in it's place. We still have a garage full of stuff but we're just going to unpack a box at a time now. it's making it a bit hard though cos I don't have much kitchen stuff yet!
Was beautiful weather and I was able to really start getting excited about the house and enjoy it! The kids got puffed running around the lounge and family room! LOL!
Tracey - Yeah on the arrival of your niece! Hope you got some nice cuddles! I hope you enjoy your day tomorrow - sorry I can't be there!
Nikki - Glad you had a great day! LOL at being hungover - I hope you pull up ok tomorrow!
Cindy - Hope your enjo party goes well tomorrow! Did you get my email order? Give me a call if you need to while the ladies there and I'll book a party!
Ok...better go and unpack a bit more stuff before I fall into bed...

Congrats Tracey on your new niece Sophie..Hope u got big cuddles tonite!! And Nick now has to work tomorrow till about 2pm, so depending on how I go packing and cleaning, the boys and I might make it 2 Liams christening.. I've sorted out the boys clothes they need to take so just mine and every thing else that we need!! Oh I so hate packing..cause I just always have the feeling I'm gonna forget the most important stuff!!
Kristie..so glad you guys are all moved now and you must be so happy with all the room!! And in no time, I bet it will really feel like home too!
Nikki, yeah I had a bit today too but kept up the water too so I don't feel too bad... It was a good game hey! And the weather was just awesome too!!
Well, I'd better get to bed cause late night last night after watching boxing in Reservoir..

hi guys,
cindy i think your dog will love having a friend to play with.i know my two dogs would be lost without each other thats for sure.
tracey i hope your day went well.grant came home with some good news this afternoon,his mum didnt have a stroke thank god but has an infection in the brain that causes all the muscles in the face to lose there ability and strength,they said she should be back to normal within 6 months and will have no perminant effect on her at all,she has been feeling unwell for a few days and now we know why,everyone thought the worst and we really thought she had a massive stroke,it is very hard to understand her when she talks but only because her face has dropped,she is back home and they have no concerns,it was a very long day for grant though at the hospital,he was there from 4 am this morning until 3 this arvo.plus he was still drunk when we got the call.
i am sorry we missed liams day.chantelle was not impressed!!!!!!
-
Nikki I am glad your MIL isnt too bad and dont worry about missing the day. We will have to catch up another time next week or so so the kids can play again. I hope you both get some rest tonight
Kristie goos work on getting your mum to do the cleaning
Alex have agreat holiday, I hope you got all the packing done,
Cindy congrats on the new dog, you will have a great excuse to go for walks with a dog full of engery. I am sure the girls love having a new dog to play with.
Well today was great. the priest was what appeared to be intoxicated AGAIN, he was for Jordans christening. He is a laugh, made it quick and painless. We had a great afternoon back at the house, the food went really well which was good. Went back to hospital tonight to see Sophie, she is cute as. My brother and his wife seem more relaxed whichis good. we were all worried after last night.
Liam has now graduated into his cot, no more cradle, he is too big for it now. OH MY he is growing up.
Ok off to bed as work tomorrow.
take care

congrats Tracey!
Nikki i have pm'd u
havent got a lot of time, will be intermittent on here til we move to the new place and even thern theres no guarantee of ADSL :(
on the plus side my firend \whos a building inspector had a quick look at the place on the weekend and reckons its only about a month off completion!
-
Well this house is now full of germs. Jordan has been sick with high temp and yucky cough for 2 days and now I have come down with it and Jamie is getting the beginnings. Its germapoloosa in here at the moment. Mum took the boys this morning so I could sleep in, I slept till 10am WOOHOO and then Jamie and I cleaned the house from the christening as we hadnt done it all yet. He is picking the boys up now.
I hope everyone else is well.
-
Tracey - sounds like fun at your house! - Quick question about the vet test - what sort of maths was on it? Was it logic and sequences or more fractions and percentages????
The girls andi went and visited Kristie and the boys yesterday and the house is fantastic! Soo much room - Kristie looks fab too! Nice little belly there..... Tori has been talking about louis cinstantly since then though, so i am thinking we have to catch up more often - they had a ball!!
I a meant o be working today but have nOOOO motivation..... phon is ringing- shoulf probably answer it for a change!
-
Cindy the maths component was really mixed. there was a lot of multiplication, divisions and subtractions. Then the patterns in numbers ie 2 4 - 6 8 - and you have to advise what the missing numbers are. Then a few percentage questions. You get one sheet to do all your workings out on. If you have done that maths test that I sent you you should be ok. Non of the graphs stuff is on the test so you can disregard all that.
I am glad you had a good time catching up with Krisite and the kids. I cant wait to see her preg belly and new house.
So I am feeling a bit better. Now I have a runny nose and sneeze. Jordan is doing better but still has the horsy cough. Liam has been a bit off today so I am hoping he isnt coming down with it. Poor mum called today and now she has it OOPS she prob caught it off the kids when I was sleeping in LOL
I am considering taking time off work sick for the rest of the week??? not sure
Nikki we got your invite for Chantelles bday I am thinking I will take a sicky that day also HMMM Jamie said he would take the boys however I would love to come along also. Will see how much sick leave I have up my sleeve.
OK well I am going to get ready for a night in the couch. Hopefully Liam will settle into a good sleep as he hasnt much today
OHHH and Liam rolled from his tummy to his back today 1st time HOW CLEVER!!!!
-

well i should go.

Hi!
What a week! We're settling in quite well although still have so much to unpack...Michael only brings me in about 5 boxes each day to unpack so it's all happening slowly...in saying that it's probably better that way...
Cindy came around with the girls on Wed which was great! We don't have a big backyard at all but they had fun running around so that was good! It was beautiful sitting out in the sunshine as well! Cindy will vouch for how lazy I am at the moment - LOL - I pretty much plonked myself out there and didn't move! hehehe.
We sussed out the local shops yesterday and the boys got haircuts...if I wait for my sister they'll have hair down to their waist! So they look all spunky now and they did really well actually!
Heading off to Fountain gate later with Michael to pick up Louis' B'day layby - I'm so excited! I can't believe it's his b'day next week! I ordered Diego party stuff off the internet so I hope it gets here in time...cost me a fortune but nowhere else seems to have it - no doubt it will be in all the shops straight after his b'day!
Must pick up huggies from safeway as well- they're on special - I'm going to get a few boxes of newborns as well as some for the boys...I really need to get on to Louis in the morning - he's just doing wee's in there out of laziness so I'm not sure if he's dry when we wakes up - probably not but something to look in to...
I've got absolutely nothing ready for Ethan yet...his room only has a change table in it so far! My bags in there unpacked so I need to get a wriggle on! I'm sure I've got plenty of time but I'll feel better when it's done. I'm feeling good though - No major complaints...he's doing big wriggles now which is so strange but I love it! I can't believe we're going to meet him soon! So exciting, although I'm not sure I'm quite ready for all the sleep deprivation just yet (although when is anyone?)
Alex - Hope your having a great holiday!
Cindy - So great to see you on Wed and have a good chat! I will have to pop over to your place soon! It's so nice to know your so close by! Your girls really are gorgeous - and cheeky too!! I can't believe how good they are when they have little accidents and just laugh...makes Louis look like a basket case! LOL!
Your so good for getting a dog at the pound! I know I should but I can't resist a gorgeous little puppy and we haven't had one ever! I think we'll look at getting one next year when Ethans a bit bigger...I'd get one tomorrow really but probably not the most practical thing to do right now!
Oh, and I ordered a multi-purpose cloth thing for the kitchen when the enjo lady called me - can you let me know how much it is so I can get the money to you? Thanks! I've got to call her and book a party but I have no idea when to do it...
LOL at not wanting to answer the phone at work - your a crack up!
Nikki - Omg at Grants mum - so glad it wasn't a stroke but how scary all the same!!!! What a scare! We got your invitiation (which Louis was very excited about!!) and would love to come...I'm just concerned how the boys will go in the water for the party...well Dylan really...I'm probably just being a overprotective as per usual...everytime I have these feelings though something usually goes wrong - LOL!
Yep, I can't believe he's going to be here soon either - this has to be the worlds fastest p/g I'm sure! Just because we've had so much on and so many other things to think about! Crazy stuff...
Poor James with his ear infection...hope it gets better soon! Yeah at getting your hair cut! Aww...I love having those ooey gooey moments with the kids - hasn't been much of it here the last week - LOL! I've got Dylan who is the cheekiest boy ever and Louis has such an attitude at the moment - everything is opposite to what I say and he just likes to argue (would never know where he got that from - LOL!)
Hey - don't stress about the party! We can have a weekday catch up instead with everyone! There's no point doing too much in a day and stressing out - just enjoy the time with the boys at the concert!
Hope the stay with Chantelle goes well!
Tracey - So glad Liams christening went well! I'm so sorry we missed it! Wow at him moving to the cot - gosh they grow so fast! Sorry to hear your all sick - hope your on the mend now! Yeah at your mum coming over to let you have a sleep though! Much needed I'm sure! I think you should definitely take time off work -your better off getting over it rather than it lingering cos your not getting rest...
Yeah at Liam rolling - what a clever little munchkin!
Rachael - Try and keep in touch! Yeah at the house only looking a month of completion! How exciting!
My Gosh...I've written an epic - thats what you get when I don't post more often - LOL! Gosh I can ramble - can't half tell I'm a gemini can you? LOL...Chat later!
-
Oh, just had a thought...don't know whether it would work or whether you think I'm a bit dodgy for thinking it but if you guys come over on a weekday maybe I'll arrange an enjo party for the day as well?
Just tell me if thats inappropriate and I'll arrange to have the enjo party another day...I'm just running out of weekends - LOL!
But...thinking of dates - Wednesdays were mostly good for everyone weren't they? I'm so excited for you guys to see the new house!!
What about 22nd Oct??
-
Im off work on 22nd, but Im all booked up :(
I do need to get some enjo though Kristie, after deciding I want the new house to be as chemical free as possible, so I'd put in an order.
what are people doing for Melb cup day?
