God it is late,,I've gotta get off to bed..got playgroup in the morn then a girlfriend and kids poppin over for a visit... Better wake up early for a quick cleanup!!
Night all.........xoxoxo
Hi!
Had my hospital appt today...all is good with bubs and me so hopefully he'll be happy in there for another few weeks!!!
Cindy - Thanks for having the kids - they both fell asleep on the way home!! LOL! How's Charlottes finger?
Tracey - Cross fingers on your letter arriving tomorrow!
Alex - Have a nice day tomorrow! The weathers meant to be gorgeous!
I'm up too late as well...nighty night!
Krisite I am glad all is looking well for you and Ethan. I cant wait to meet him but like you said he can stay put for a few more weeks.
Well no letter today, rang tafe and they said they couldnt give results on phone but that they posted the letters today so hopefully in tomorrows mail or mondays. BUMMER HEY
Cindy I hope your test went well. I am sure you did fine.
Cant wait to see you all sunday. I am really looking forward to it
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!
Cindy, I'm sure you will have done well! Sending you lots of luck anyway - when do you find out the results?
cindy,i have evrything crossed for you
my sister is coming and is bringing 2 chooks,tea towels wipes and gladwrap.
cindy is bringing a fruit platter.seems the weather is going to be nice too.
nikki
I should bring something else too.... someone tell me what! I will have my picnic bag so we can put chooks and things that need to be kept cold in that! I will make sure there is ice thingos in it.
Should i make a pasta or potato salad perhaps???? Or maybe some lollies???
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
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!
I'm still in my pjs too Kristie!! Probably cause I want my tanning moisturiser on my legs to totally dry first...
Oh well lots of time to get dressed!
I'm about to make the cake for 2moro, when my crazy boys decide to go for a nap!! Not sure if I'll make a 3, might be different but it will be cute and yummy..
So i'll be bringing the following 2moro: oh and Nick has to work so my sis in law is coming instead..she's great.
*cake
*extra pop top drinks for the kiddies
*mini quiches
*zucchini slice
*muffins(not too sure what kind yet)
*popcorn( as requested by Jack!)
No pjs for me today! But i did get a nap on the couch!
Melissa- nice to hear from you! Wha ta PITA not getting to see the specialist!
ON tomorrow- Tori is driving us crazy she is so keen to see thomas!
I am going to bring some fruit - i have some little packs of lollies, some chips, i have some disposable cutlery etc hanging around so i will chuck that in too! I am sure that as usual we will end up with way to much food but no complaints! I will bring sunscreen too! Slip Slop Slap!
I will have your enjo kristie and rachael i will have your linen!
Hi!
What a beautiful day...I've had quite feral children after such a big day yesterday...Louis out of character fully jumped on my tummy before which wasn't nice..gave me the fright of my life as I was just not expecting it...about 5min later he fell asleep sitting up on the couch so explains a bit...that was right at dinner time though so we had to get him up...He's about to have his bath and straight to bed...hopefully they will behave tomorrow! LOL!
Alex - Can't wait to see your cake! LOl at letting your tanner dry!
Cindy - Yeah at getting a nap - I wish! Thanks for bringing the enjo!
See you all in the morning! I'm aiming to get there by no later than 9.45am...and seeing I'm one of the closest I have no excuses for being late - LOL!
Kristie - OMG Louis! These boys have a mind of their own. Benjamin forgets that I had an operation only about 2 months ago and that things still hurt. I hope you are ok?
Have a wonderful day with the kids 2morrow ladies. Hope they enjoy every minute :dance:
Melissa
hhhmmm ive heard that the weather has changed for 2morrow....19 and rain
tracey and family wont be able to make it as jordan is sick
my sister and hubby also cant come as they have both been called in to work
i also over booked and now have 2 kids tickets that i cant use,i obviously wasnt thinking very clearly and didnt realise that i cant fit that many people into my car....der!!!
can anyone grab a chook?
Guys I am spweing Jordan isnt well as he was really looking forward to going and so were we. I am not sure he would handle the day out being not well.
Nikki If I cant get rid of the tickets I will put the money in your account tomorrow. I am SO sorry I have been slack with it. I cant do it from my internet banking and so I have to get Jamie to do it.
Alex if you can give Jordans present to Louis instead as he was my KK so he doesnt miss out.
I hope you guys have an awesome day tomorrow. Take lots of photos.
Hi!
Oh no Tracey - what a bummer! Maybe he'll wake up feeling a bit better??? I so don't want you guys to miss out!
Nikki - bugger at buying too many tickets...
Hopefully the weather holds out - I'm sure it will be fine!!
Melissa - Yeah, I'm fine...bubs had a good jump around after that wondering what shocked him out of his slumber but all seems fine...having a few aches and pains but then thats not unusual!
OK change of plans..... we are going to try and make it. I am packing for tomorrow as if we intend on going and will see how Jordan is in the morning. He doesnt seem to have a temp anymore so he may be ok
I hope to see you guys there
If chooks are cooked when we go to the shops in the morning I will grab one!
Tracey- hope jordy is ok and you make it!
See you bright and early... Kristie- I think you should just sleep in the car tonight so you cant be late hehehe
Hi!
What a great day!! The kids were so excited to see Thomas and ride the train!! Louis crashed on the way home and they both only woke up about 4.30pm so that was great - I even got an afternoon sleep as well! I can't remember the last time that happened! I hope Louis goes to sleep tonight though. Was so great to see you all...
Nikki - Thanks for organising everything! Your amazing how your so on top of everything when your so busy and have the clan to run after! and I know you've done something to yourself - just couldn't work out what!! LOL! Your kids are so gorgeous - so easy going and relaxed!
Cindy - Seeing Tori running down the hill was a crack up but made me so nervous!! It's so cute to see her and Chantelle such good little friends...apparently they both went up to Michael at the park saying that they liked him now or something...very funny! Hope they both had a good sleep this arvo!
Alex - LOL - Thanks for not making me look like the only silly one going to Belgrave - LOL! Thanks for making a great cake as well!
Tracey - How good was Liam?? He seems like such a happy bubba - even though he's tired he's so content! Jordan and Louis were funny on the train ride home - LOL! Thanks for the pressie - Louis hasn't let it go since he woke up - of course they're fighting over it so Barney's gone the tv to keep Dylan occupied!!
Rachael - Glad your feeling well!! How exciting your going to have another bubba soon (well soon enough!) I hope Neil enjoyed himself! Milo's such a gorgeous little boy with all that blonde hair!
Well..I suppose I better go and organise dinner - leftover veg lasagne, frozen chips and frozen fish fillets! There was no way I was going to cook tonight - for once I'm organised - LOL!
Was looking forward to a veg day tomorrow but just remembered I've got Dylan booked in for his immunisations over at Kilsyth...oh well...shouldn't take too long!
Hope you all got a rest in this arvo! Chat later...
We had a great time today too.
Alex, i couldnt find you at the park, so i have got your linen, i will PM u and organise to bring it around for you :)
Well we stopped on the way home for Milo to go to the loo, and then the car died (again, same as happend around my birthday) so the RACV had to come jump start us,. and im now waiting for them to come and do a battery replacement, so hopefully it doesnt happen again any time soon!
Oh no Rachael! Just what you needed at the end of a big day! I hope it gets all fixed quickly for you!
we had sooo much fun today,im so glad that evryone came.both my little ones are watching the thomas movie has anyone seen it,its called thomas and the magic railroad.i recommend you get it,after today the kids will really enjoy it cos it has a big steam train in it just like the one we went on and the exact same thomas that was in the show.
racheal thanx for the linen,i hope niel enjoyed himself more than he thought he would ,you guys looked so cute walking together back to the train.
alex AWSOME cake mate.i think chantelle has found a new boyfriend,she keeps talking about holding hands with jack on the train
kristie grant thought that louis was the citest thing he had ever seen.you are right i have done something to myself,i had botox around my eyes and chin and had my lips done too.funny huh! im so freakin vain arnt i.hehehe! im older than you guys so gotta do whatever i can to keep l;ooking as good as all of you.
tracey and jamie,grant really enjoyed getting to know you guys and thought that jamies was such a funny bugger.jordan is so smitten with me,i just love it,i have to pop over and pick him up for a drive in NIKKIS CAR!
cindy,cant wait for my tupperware,i hope al had a good day and i can see that the girls certainly did.
thanx again everyone for a great day and thanks cindy for chantelles pressie.
nikki
Nikki, you're such a dag - I think you're gorgeous without all that stuff - but whatever makes you feel good!
Nikki, i am so jealous, i need to get my frown lines done! I'll have to talk to you about it...
Milo keeps asking me about all the big boys, and what there names are, and the only one i could think of was Corey..did any of them have whit on cos he keeps asking who the white one was.
Well I agree, what an awesome day today was and I am so glad Jordan pulled up ok and we got to come out. Both boys crashed on the way home. I had to wake Jordan at 6.30 and he has just gone to bed. Liam was a little feral, would only sleep for 45 mins and then wake screaming. He has now had his solids and boobs and is in bed and has been quiet for over hour and half so think he should be down for the night now.
Nikki You so dont need botox, you look younger than I do, you are certainly a MILF but do what makes you feel good hunny. I had a great time chatting with Grant today, so did Jamie. You guys certainly work well together looking after the clan and the extra kids. Jordan certainly is IN LOVE with you. Although I think Harry is about to pip you at the post cause he was crying that he didnt give Harry BIG HUGS when we left today. SO CUTE
Krisite I love how friendly and cute your boys are. Louis is such a dream, you certainly should be proud for raising such lovely boys. Jordan certainly did have a great time with Louis on the train. You look fantastic too and good on you for having a rest.
Cindy Poor Charlotte, she certainly is a clutz. I hope she pulled up ok from all the falls. Tori is just a cutie, she is a real dare devil aswell.
Alex thanks for Jordans presents, he had to take the books to the toilet with him LOL (what ever I can to get him to go). Jack is a gorgeous boy, he was so sweet chatting to Jordan and I when we went to the toilet. How is Tobys head, what a laugh him head butting the rail and laughing. TOO FUNNY
Rach It was nice to meet Neil and I hope he had a good time. Milo certainly enjoyed the thomas show, what a sweetheart calling out to him and the fat controller.
It so was a great day, Its so nice that we can catch up and the kids all play well together.
Off to bed early I think, I am knackered
i think it was jamie my nephew
Like you all said!! WHAT A DAY!
when we got home the girls only slept for abut half an hour and so we all went out the frint and did some gardening then i went to my friends house for her birthday dinner, just got home, put my tupeprware order through and OH did i mention that at some stage today my stupid new dog has dug under the fence and got out again????
We cant afford the pound fees if we end up having him put in there again(rather broke this week) so we are going to actual talk to them about rehoming him, we cant have a dog one day and not the next, tori gets so upset and we have a wonderful loyal dog in Bassie already that we really dont need the extra stress of freaking out that the dog is going to get out! Will have to see hat happens....
All the kids were so good today, i am so glad they are all such good friends.
Nikki- your a dag! I noticed the lips (wouldnt have if i didnt know you though- look good!) but didnt say anything incase grant didnt know about this lot!
Nikki gave me the task of organising our xmas get together so what about the werribee zoo??? is that analright idea? I have never been there but Al wants to check it out! MAybe we shold brain storm it at Kristies next week?? Bring the diaries and try to find a date we are all free??
OK, ihave to go to bed
Night all, thank you for today, love you all!!
the werribee zoo is great,we went a few months ago.it is really good cos it isnt too big and the bus ride around the zoo is something different,they have a beautiful lawn to set up for picnic,they also have live entertainment on the lawn,last time they had a wonderful african dance show and chantelle and i were so into it dancing and having fun,we should try to go when they have something like that on again cos it really was lovely.
Hi!
Dylan had his immunisations today - was such a brave boy - hardly cried at all! Then they had a play with their cousin since we were over that way! I'm so spending the day at home tomorrow - LOL!
Tracey - So glad that you all managed to make it as well - wouldn't have been the same without you!
Cindy - Where do you get your energy from??? Honestly! Gardening??? and a party??? I can't believe your dog got out again...what a bugger...I don't blame you re the pound fees...not what you need at the moment thats for sure!
We took the kids to werribee zoo earlier this year and they loved it! We would be happy to go again - Not sure how we'll go with 3 but we'll be right! LOL! I looked it up on the website though and the rhythm of africa doesn't start to the new year - I agree it would be great though!
how about adventure park in geelong
Hi!
Had the laziest day today! Was so nice...got heaps of stuff sorted out of boxes etc but still have a bit more to go! Boys did well considering they were just playing around the house and amusing themselves - they already have some good spats over toys though!
I'm happy to go wherever - Werribee zoo would be great even without the rhythm of africa I think as it is such a big day by the time you see all the animals and eat etc anyway but Geelong adventure park is great as well...Probably aimed for kids that are a bit older though, although the new toddler pool might make a bit of a difference to that...
Whatever everyone wants to do will be fine by me...I think we should suss out a date pretty quickly though as I'm sure we're all going to get xmas stuff happening soon...
Oh and forgot to say (I think!) that Louis got a place at 3yok! Woohoo! I don't find out the session time until the 2nd dec though at an orientation day - grrr!! Makes it hard to get things organised for next year when we don't find out until so late but never mind! I'm just happy he's going to be going - he's so excited as well!
Chat later!
Heeelllloooo???
Hope you're all well! Not much happening here...just had lazy days at home and have to do food shopping today...Michael brought the last of the boxes in last night so have those to unpack and I'm done! Although not everythings sorted properly - we need to invest in some storage furniture desperately! And why don't they put shelving in wardrobes standard? Seems so strange...
Saw my dream bed in the Harvey Norman catalogue - a big King size (to fit all the kids- LOL!) and it's just gorgeous...expensive though but I figure it will last forever!
Hope you're all well!
Chat later!
well hi everyone.
We are all good here, just getting ready for the holiday, we leave on saturday I can just feel the hawaii sun on me already :) I am so not looking forward to the plane flight though, 11 hours, 2 kids HMMMM will be interesting.
Jordans kinder times have been confirmed, its tues and wednesday which is good. Tues will be my day off and wed he is at mums so she will take him to kinder and pick him up. That will give mum a few hours with Liam on his own also.
Krisite Yeah on Louis getting into 3 yr old kinder, I am sure he is going to love it. I know what you mean about shelving in wardrobes, I got Liams done before he was born, need to do the others when I have some spare cash. You can get do it yourself stuff at Ikea which isnt bad, if Michael is handy??
Nikki I just laughed at Chantelle and Jordan chatting on the phone. He just talks about you, Chantelle and Harry all the time.
CIndy YOu will prob get your test results which I am away so I fingers crossed for you. I have every confidence in you though.
Got all my waxing done today so already to hit the beach in my bathers. Will chat tomorrow before we go.
take care

Hi!
Trace - How exciting getting ready for your holiday - I'm so super jealous! How long are you going for?
Yeah at Jordan getting his kinder times - thats great he'll have 2 sessions...
Yep - I'm sure Michael will do the shelving himself...It's very handy having so good with stuff like that - saves us soooo much money!
Hi to everyone else!
Hey guys.
i feel like i havent been online for ages! with no internet at work and very little at home its hard.
i think work has stuffed up my pay i should have got it tonight but not there yet. if its not there tomorrow i'll scream, i've got overdue things to pay.
Alex - i emailed you cos im barely on line this week, i can bring your stuff over whenever, i'll PM u my mobile number and we can sort something out :)
Hi guys!
Not much to report here, been working and all that usual jazz! The girls are feral tonight cos they are over tired but hey they will survive! No plans tomorrow other than going to the warehouse to pick up my tupperware order and thats it, i need a day to get some house stuff done!
Tracey - have a ball on your holiday! I wish we could go on holidays, you guys seem to always have something planned which is great! Thanks for the good wishes on my test results etc, i am really not sure i have got in though, if not then there is always the following year anyway or i might try for full time at mid year intake?
I think i am going to go to bed soon, my SIL is having her bub tomorrow which is very exciting, she has to have a c/section coz it is breech and in NSW they dont do natural breech births which she is devistated about especially coz ts her first! I cant wait to hear what they have though.....
my BIL rang me today to tell me he has had a feeling my sister kim has been having an affair so he hired a private investigator for the past 3 weeks and his worst night mare came true,she has been seeing a guy called carl who lives here in melton,i feel so sorry for him.
