    Tracey - Benjamin had his birthday on the 4th of October.

    Nikki - Benjamin had a great day on his birthday. We had a few friends of his over at lunch time and they all had a ball. I made a train cake. Of course the lollies all went first....hmmmm. Been having appointments with the hospital each week for the past 3 weeks. First to see the surgeon, who said that everything is going great but still no heavy lifting for 6 months including my son. 2nd week was to see the gyno, who's organising IVF for Jan/Feb next year. And reminded me to go get Dh's swimmer's checked out by our local gp b4 we go back to see him. My 3rd appointment is tomorrow morning with the diabetic clinic doctor. My sugar levels are horrible! Well, I've had to deal with an infection from the surgery and I'm stacking on weight again, not to mention AF I think is still on her way, though she is a week and a bit late. If only the doctors were wrong and I still have a tube, it would make life so much easier.

    to everyone's littlies I may have missed.

    Anyhow, we are in moving mode. Organising to shift in Late November further up the coast between Gympie and Maryborough to a small country town called Bauple. Call it a tree change...

    Happy Birthday Benjamin I am so slack sorry I missed it. It seems you are really busy with all Melissa I hope it all goes well for you with the IVF in the new year. I will be thinking positive for you.

    Krisite I am glad you had nice cuddles with Liam. He would have loved it I am sure, he is such a sociable little bug. How cute is Louis to like going over the bridge and the tunnel.

    SO.... should I bring salads? Potatoe, pasta and coleslaw, maybe a green salad aswell.

    Well tomorrow I am hanging out by the letterbox as my letter should be arriving to advise that i got into the course, not that I am feeling confident or anything. I will be devasted if its a NO......

    Nikki Can you send me you bank details again so I can put the money in. Did we pay $8.50 for the kids or full price?

Kids were up late as well and didn't even end up having a bath...they were good though considering...I think I need an early night again...

    Hi!

    Tracey - what a bugger it's dragging out! I hate it when that happens!

    I'm super excited for Sunday as well - should be lots of fun...had a look on the website though and apparently you can only take strollers on the train not prams so that will be interesting!! We don't have a stroller so the boys will just have to walk - at least Michael will be there though so not such a big deal!

    Found out that Louis should get into kinder - they were sending out 2nd round offers this week apparently and because it's been in such demand they're only offering one session so a lot of people pulled out...I'll be happy with that and then we're going to book in for playgroup at the same venue...I spoke to the lady today about it and it sounds really good - I can't believe how cheap it is - and per family - so it will be great for me to drag along all the boys next year. She was saying how the kinder down there has great teachers and has just had a lot of money injected into it so new paint, toys, outdoor equipment etc...I'm so excited! I think he's going to love it! We passed the primary school the other day and he goes - when I'm 5 I'm going to go there and you and Dylan and Dad will go home and miss me - LOL!

    We're off to the p/g, baby and childrens expo tomorrow - meeting my SIL Lea in there with Lachlan...I've never been to one would you believe so will be interested to see what they have there...I've got a free ticket which is a bonus as well as I think parkings going to cost a fortune!!

    Better go and put my shopping away - got home 2 hours ago and it's still sitting on the floor after the rush of getting dinner and the kids to bed (although we had a nice roast I had prepared earlier - LOL!)

    Chat later!

    Well the exam is over!! It was not all that bad but i am not real confident. I choked on the written part - had an absolute mental blank at the wrong time!!

    OH, well, I am off to bed to wind my mind down

    Talk tomorrow!

    Hi!

    Omg...had a huge day today at the expo - got there at 10 and didn't leave til 4 - needless to say I'm buggered!! Was great though and the kids did really well considering! Louis got his face painted like a doggy and at the end there was an animal thing so the boys got to pat the animals and even patted a baby crocodile! I got heaps of samples and stuff and bought a pillow to b/f with and for bubs to use and a baby sling thing which may come in handy as my hands will be very full when Ethan arrives - LOL! Well worth going I think...Such a big day though!

    Not sure about extra food Cindy - sounds like there's going to be a fair bit! Was going to tell you as well that they had a tupperware stand there today and I saw the Madagascar stuff - very cute!

    We're chilling out tomorrow thats for sure so we're ready for our big day on Sunday! Chat later!

    kristie - I bet you'll be happy to put your feet up after a day like you had at the expo?

    tracey - I hate waiting for mail too. I'm sure our postie makes us wait and hangs onto them for an extra day or 2.

    cindy - I'm sure the test went well for you. Waiting for the results to anything is always nerve racking. So here's hoping with fingers crossed that everything went well. Lots of happy thoughts from here to you.

    Didn't get my diabetic app on Wednesday, the doctor called in sick, just as I got to the hospital for my app. They couldn't fit me in anywhere so I had to go home. Was very miffed about it too. I really needed to see her. They can't even book me in yet for another app because it's "too far into the future" 3+ months and they said the doctor needs to open another clinic to cater for her existing clients and new ones. She seems very popular at present.

    Melissa, geez thats awful...I would be so annoyed! I can't believe they're just going to make you wait like that again - and to not find out until you got there - what a pain!

    Yep...enjoying a very lazy day - still in my pj's! LOL!
