[Nelle]

Lol Jodi, I'm STILL in my jim jams, and of course the housework will still be there tomorrow (and in my case, the day after that, and the day after that :P). Riv's going through a phase of tipping things over and he works much faster than I can!

Exciting news for me though (as in, very boring for everyone else) - mum's coming to watch Riv tomorrow after work while I properly River proof his room! And prepare his room for his big boy bed before he breaks the cot for good! AND mum and dad have said that they've got room to store Ran's drums, so they'll be OUT of Riv's room! AND I'll go do the shopping while mum's here so I don't have to take kids. I am ONE happy Nelle. :P

Caddie, some of your stuff looks awesome mate. Good work! Lurve that dino one.

I probably should get onto dinner hey. Hope I don't get food on Ran's dressing gown (it's much cosier than mine :P).

AnnaT- Yep that must be the Div 1 course, you'll be fine. Lots biology, you have to learn every single thing bout body and how it works, not all that much maths you only really have to learn a few formulas and you get to use calculator. I'm gonna have to wait til kids are at school to do midwifery. With mortagage and planning another child just not affordable at moment.
And that hubby of yours, does he not realise at the moment what you are doing is work?! You have toddler and newborn what are you supposed to do with them?

Caddie, once I get Ashleigh's room painted and done up I'm going to have to have a good look at your store what I'm gonna buy for her room.

Jodi- Glad your day went well. Sounds like you're doing great. Just waiting for Af then we can start our ttc. I'm getting very excited.

Annie- That sounds really good, its great those things are around to help people get back into things, you could go uni with Anna, well I guess gold coast bit far from townsville isn't it.

Nelle- How is poor Rans going to play his drums if they're not at home! My housework still here day after day, this week so not motivated!

Now girls I have question for all you with new bubs, do you feel more confident 2nd time around? Do you find its a little easier cause you know what you're doing?

[Beatrix]

Shell- i def feel more confident third time round and second time round it was much easier too.

Well all this talk on uni!! I decided a couple of weeks ago that in about 2 years i am going to uni to do the midwife course.

Jodi- you sound like you did really really well today. Please dont over do yourself and do house work tomorrow. you really do need to relax. Get a peice of paper as a sign and write on it for all visitors to see " the house was clea last week, sorry you missed it"

Nelle- some days i dont get out of my jammies all day

[Visitor7]

Love that sign idea beatrix!!!!!

shell - I'm definitely more confident 2nd time round. I feel I can settle her easier and quicker than with Nina. I'm not too worried about the place having to be super quiet so she can sleep. But I know for me it's still early days. I'll report back in a month!

nelle - that's great news! Have you got Riv's bed ready to go, or do you need to buy one? Do you reckon he's ready now?

Just got little Miss Emily tucked in bed, so I'm off for a long hot shower (yes, I'll bloat, we don't have water restrictions so it can very long ) and then bed. It's actually been getting quite cold here at night, getting down to around 12-13. Which for us is freezing! Last week during the night it was 19-20.

Hey girls

Just checking in quickly, have been a bit AWOL recently. Well done to all the girls going to uni, I have got my last subject to do starting in July and I will have my Bachelor of Commerce, I started in 2000, so it will be a long time coming.

Shell - Good luck on your TTC journey, how exciting.

Jodi - you did great today ! Woo hoo to you.

We are fine, as usual Rylee's sleeping is *****ing me she is waking up about 3 am and won't go back down till about 5 am, I have rung up a sleep centre to try and get her in, so fed up.

Okay bbl tomorrow.

Enjoy your shower Jodi - I'm killing time waiting for our hot water to heat up - grrrrrrr!!! Bloody kids and DH using all the hot water. I think our next big purchase will be a bigger hot water system. I know what you mean about the weather - we were down below 10 degrees overnight - and guess what just got put in today!! The girls are eager to get in (Thursday it'll be ready to go) - I'll be waiting a few months I think.

Good luck to all the girls studying - it can be hard work with little ones, but worth it. And I managed to do Year 11 and 12 then a 4-year Bachelor in 2 1/2 years with 2 little ones (plus being a single parent for some of that time) - so definitely do-able. Just make sure you take care of yourselves and don't get too stressed out.

Laurin - Hope Rylee's sleeping improves for you, must be so frustrating being alone with her a lot and being pregnant as well

ETA - Oh and Jodi - loved the photos of all of you!! She's such a little darling - and she really has Heath's eyes doesn't she??

[Freya]

Just want to say - wide awake 4mth old free to home, doesnt have to be good.

(joking, Id only send him to the best )

[caddie]

I have that sign beatrix!!
Millana has been couging until she spews.I suppose the good thing is she is getting the gunk up but the phelgm is not green so it must be a viral thing? She gets bored being home but if i take her out she sounds horrid.Im suppose to meeting a friend at the funstation.
Ok going back to see the pic of little emily!
