Hi!
Tracey - would have been a great day for a bbq!!
The boys played outside heaps today which was good!! Not much happening here...Michaels worked the weekend and I just found out he's working next weekend as well - both days - and then he's away for 4 days with work the week after that - I think I'll lose my mind in the meantime...I need a holiday!! LOL!
Still managed to get the house organised today which was good - we're having Louis' b'day party on Sat with family so I'm going to try and get the housework done tomorrow so its not all a rush later in the week as we get busier...
I have no idea what to get him really - he doesn't really want much - we're going to get him a scooter and he's getting some toy story toys, Dylan's getting him a dvd - probably incredibles or something and Ethan's getting him a Pink my little pony (it's what he really wants apparently! LOL!!) Other than that obviously he's too spoilt because he doesn't want anything else!! I'm going shopping wed arvo on my own to pick up some bits and pieces...
What are you guys getting your kiddies??
It's late, off to bed - chat later!!
-
no idea what to get DS1
I want to get him a vtech camera, but havig trouble finding one anywhere.
-
we are getting Jordan WII games, Diego and Dora. He is getting Ben 10 WII game from his aunty and uncle. Ben 10 seems to be popular in this house, taking over from Diego.
-
we are not getting anything exciting for tori, just some bits and pieces - she is all about barbie at the moment though, the lovely Kristie is having the girls for an hour or so tomorrow for me so i can go get something for char to give to tori

All of us have colds.

-
happy birthday loius and tori<i love you both very very much!
-
Hey Kristie how many weeks are you now?
-
Hi!
Happy belated Birthday to Tori! I hope she had a great birthday and has a great party!!!
and a big Happy Birthday to Channy - I'm not entirely sure of the date (I'm a shocker) but I hope she has a fantastic party today as well!
Sorry we're not there...after Louis having his birthday on Fri and party yesterday they are all just wrecked...
We're all looking forward to catching up at Fairy Park in a couple of weeks though - will be so great!!
Rachael - Poor oscar - hope he's on the mend!! I'm 16 weeks now! Time's flying along...feeling much better in 2nd tri...
Nikki - I'm loving the paul sadler swimming...it's great - it's a big day for all of us but very worth it!! Chantelles' party sounds like it will be amazing - the kids will love it!! How did the kids go at swimming - LOL at putting a bikini on - I don't even think I own one anymore!!! OMG on the dentist's bill!! God, I'm going to need to take a loan when my kids all need fixing - I'm praying they have my tooth strength and Michaels straightness but knowing our luck it will be vice versa - LOL!!
So yeah, Louis had his party yesterday with family and a few friends (our friends - LOL) and he had a ball - it was a beautiful day and he loved every minute of it! He had a great birthday as well - loved all his pressies...(I haven't sorted the toy room out yet - god help me once Ethans had a b'day and it's been xmas!!) It's so much fun though!! I only got him bits and pieces as well really - he got a scooter and helmet (although he's a bit sceptical) and the rest of his toy story friends - jessie, bullseye and buzz, some finley stuff and a wot wot toy - It was funny - he wanted a lot of younger toys than I expected but I think that's nice...I don't want him to grow up too fast!! LOL!! He got a great slot car thing from his uncles so that's going to be interesting!!! We haven't set it up yet- Michaels working AGAIN today so it will have to wait until later...
I can't believe he's 4 though!! I guess in the blink of an eye I'll be saying I can't believe he's 14! LOL!
So, I'll have invites soon for everyone for Ethans 1st b'day - I'm going to make it a big one but just for a couple of hours with lots of party food!! Actually - I'll give them to you when we are at fairy park!!
OK...better go...having a quiet day today...I'm putting a movie on for the boys in a minute and hoping that they fall asleep...
Chat later!!
-
Thanks for a great time on Sunday Nikki, we had an absolute ball :)
On a less happy note, it looks like we arent going to be able to make it to Fairy Park.
It sux on the timing :(
Well, we are still all not well in my house, though everyone is a little better, ds1 is the only one whos really 100%
Hopefully we get better soon though!
Hope you guys are all doing well
-
Hi!!
Hope everyone's well!!
Rachael - Bugger you can't make it on Sunday!! Hope everyones on the mend now!!
Is everyone else still right for Fairy Park?? I"m so looking forward to catching up - it feels like it's been ages!!!!!!
Not much news here...Michael's away - back tomorrow - so it's been quiet and lonely...
Ethan's nearly walking!! He can walk a few steps to us now but I'm sure it won't be long! Had a scare today - the boys were all on the trampoline outside and I came in for a few minutes - the boys know usually to keep it zipped up when Ethans on there - and the next minute Louis is yelling at me to come quick - they left it unzipped and Ethan was standing on the little slide that we use as a step on his way down!! OMG - lucky he went toes first, because if he's have just crawled off head first he would have really hurt himself!!
Louis and Dylan are well...funny little buggers they are - they fight over helping me at the moment which I'm certainly not complaining about - got to take it while it's there! LOL! All 3 of them can be quite competitive for my attention lately but I think it's more because Michael hasn't been around so much...
Hope you all had a great weekend - chat later!
-
Krisite certainly sounds like you have your hands full. Lucky Ethan didnt hurt himself, why is it always when we turnour backs for a moment something like that happens????
We are still up for fairy park on the weekend, we cant wait to catch up with everyone, it has been ages. I think Jordan and Liam will love it, we have never been. I remember vague things from when I was a kid.
We are going well. Just looking forward to our holiday now, not long to go. We have Jordans bday in a forntnight, then Jamies cousins wedding the next day and then on the wed we are off to Thailand YEAH. Jordan is getting so much Ben10 stuff. It appears Diego is now taking a back seat to the Ben10
Cindy how are things? Hope your placement is going well. We arr going back to aged care at end November. They couldnt find us arehab placement, not sure how hard they checked. Oh well could be worse
Rach hope everyone is getting better
Nikki hope you get some sleep darl over the next week whilst you are working so much
Alex hope all is well with you. not long now till we hit the skies
take care everyone

hi every one,
all is well here,harry was a bit sick over the weekend,not sure what it was but a temp and very grumpy,actually creche asked me if he has been naughty at home because he has been a bugger there,it is probably cos he had 4 days there last week,he is tired and isn't used to it.i have had to take on extra shifts to try and get some more cash for our holiday,it has crept up and we don't have a lot at the moment.it is so hard working 5 days a week and most of them nights.i am doing another 5 afternoons this week and 1 night shift,after our holiday i will only do my set shifts so the kids will only be in creche 2 days a week.
i cant believe that when we get back it will only be 5 weeks till xmas,OMG!!!!!
chantelle had a fantastic birthday,her party was a huge success,i have put the photos on FB. she got so many pressies. Coreys birthday is in 2 weeks also he will be 11,we have already given him his big present,he got a $700 scooter,WOW i know that is alot of money but he is such a good rider and is on it everyday so we didnt mind getting him a good model,he is a freak at the skate park,yesterday he did a back somersault on it.**** i nearly had a heart attack.he is also getting a new phone but wont get that till his bday,probably after we land in Malaysia.
this weather is divine!!!!!
i have swapped all my shifts for the weekend.we are going to john farnham on sat night and the lovely jamie and tracey are having the kids and then we are really looking farward to fairy park.
i have an idea,does everyone want to by a book for there child and we will wrap and give them to the kids for there birthday/ xmas.we can get one for all of them and give it to someone else to give to your child,that way they will get the book that we know that they like.does that make scene. it will keep the cost down also cos you can determine how much you want to spend on your own child. hey Alex are you going to be in charge of a cake again this year? i think every one should bring there own lunch and own drinks but everyone also bring a snack to share with the group.
is 10.30 a good time to meet.i hope the weather is kind to us.
-
Hi!
Tracey - How exciting for your holidays - will be so much fun all of you together!!
Nikki - So glad Channy's b'day went well! Poor Harry being sick and playing up a bit...hopefully he settles down - will be nice to have all that time with them on holidays!! You poor thing working so much - I hope your taking some multivitamins or something!!!
OMG at such an expensive scooter!!! That's great that he's so good at it though!!
Sounds like a great weekend planned - the weather isn't meant to be all that great on Sunday but hopefully the rain will hold off!
Happy to bring snacks to share but to otherwise look after ourselves...I don't know what everyone else wants to do but to be honest - my boys really don't need any more books (or toys for that matter!!) with Ethans birthday around the corner and christmas it's just all too much - not cost wise but just with all the presents they get - I know with my kids they'll probably be more excited to just be going out and the book will get thrown straight back in the pram and off they'll run!! I think they'll also be very excited about just seeing everyone and having a cake...
Alex - if you can't do it we can always just pick up a few mud cakes from the supermarket!! Hope your going well - you've been quiet in here - I take it your super busy!!
Cindy - Hope your placeement is going well - sounds like it by your facebook updates!!
We had a great morning at the park but Ethan doesn't want to sleep today - driving me crazy!! He had 5min on the way home and it seems to have really mucked him up...he's in his cot now but just chattering and grizzling..little bugger! We're very excited to have Michael home today - I've really missed him this time - I mean I usually do but this time even more so!! Maybe it's because practicially I cope fine with the kids on my own now so just really miss his company - in th earlier days it would be like I needed him to help manage everyone! Don't know if that makes sense...
Anyway...got googy eggs boiling on the stove - going to have a curried egg sandwich - YUM!!!!!!! Been eating atrociously so trying to pick it up a bit...Bubs hasn't really been very active yet which of course has me worried...I have a hospital appt on Thursday so looking forward to hearing a little heartbeat...heard it last Monday and everything was fine but I'm such a worrywart with this p/g...18 days until my scan!!! I'm so excited!! Chat later!
-
good point kristie,i am fine with that!!!!!
-
Ok...sorry I haven't been in here lately gals.....
Been sooooo busy working and Nick has been ****ing me off!!!..but what is new!!
I've been reading but haven't had time to write!!!..slack I know!!
Can't wait till 2moro!!! I hope it doesn't rain at all for us!!! The kiddies will have a ball!!
I am making some cupcakes for the kids...easier for them to eat than a big cake..and Ill decorate them with m&m number 4's..is that ok??
Anyway..I'd better get my butt into gear and make these cupcakes hey!!! and the rest of my housework that got pushed aside cause of this yummy weather today!!
See you lovely people at 10.30am tomorrow morning!!! YAYAYAYAAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!
-
Hi!
See you all tomorrow - No doubt I'll be running late - LOL!!
Alex - Cupcakes sound fantastic - thanks heaps for making them!!! Sounds like things have been hectic for you lately - look forward to having a chat tomorrow!
We've had a huge week - went to the botanic gardens yesterday with the kids for a catch up and then mothers group at the park today and out tomorrow!! I'm so having a veg day on Monday!
Had a chill out this afternoon while Michael watched the kids and around 4pm started to feel really sick...seems like an upset tummy...who knows why!! I'm sure I'll be ok in the morning cross fingers!!
Ok, see you tomorrow!!
-
Hi!
I wanted to say a huge thanks for Sunday - we all had so much fun!! (although I've been paying for such a big day with feral kids all week - LOL)
We've had a pretty big week this week as well really...I think it will be like this until xmas now!!
Speaking of which - I thought I'd get the ball rolling with our night away...I think it's going to be difficult to co-ordinate so thought I'd get in early...
So far for me the best weekend in Dec is 11-13th dec - any day, other than that I'd be better off going Sat Nov 21st...Other than those dates I'm going to be pushing it a bit...
Had fun at your undercoverwear party last night Cindy!!! I was actually suprised at how much stuff I liked...(now I'm in big trouble for spending too much money - LOL!)
I meant to say to you that I'm off to the dentist with the boys on Friday - I've booked them in back with your old boss...
Mums meant to be coming around some time this arvo and Michael and I are heading out for dinner and a movie just the two of us which will be nice!!!!
I'm getting super excited for halloween on Saturday - boys got their incredibles costumes in the mail today...so just have to pick up some lollies on Fri and we're set..although I would love to get like a glowing pumpkin light for outside though....will have to see what's left in the shops!
Then we're off to Bonnie doon for a few days which will be nice...the boys will get to swim in the new pool and apparently they've got chickens now as well so they'll love that as well. I just hope they've got the pool fence up or it won't be a very relaxing weekend!!!!
Hope you're all well! Chat later!
