Happy birthday Miss Ainsleigh!! Hope you have a great day.
Ambah's party went well, thanks everyone for the birthday wishes.
Jodi - I'm thinking we might go for a swim today, it's warming up here as well (enough that yesterday we had to take the b'day cake to mum and dad's to keep in the fridge during the party because the icing was melting - thank god they live a 2 minute drive from the zoo).
Meg - Oh hun, hope the MS gives you a break soon.
Oh and dad's pulling up quite well considering. He's in a bit of pain, but is only having to take panadol for pain relief. He's arm will be in a sling for awhile and he has a minimum of 3 weeks off work (gonna be interesting - he's a bit of a workaholic). Hopefully he'll be able to enjoy this time - and mum can't make him do work around the house like she usually would on his holidays
Caddie - so you are not a millionnaire? Bummer. But at least you didn't lose money.
Shar - did your dad make it to the party like he wanted to?
All you girls talking about the heat. I just turned the heater on here as it was only 14 inside.
Nelle - I don't know how you can do it getting to bed so late. don't the boys get you up in the morning?
James is current;y sleeping 9pm to 7am. But he has been having nightmares, and crying in his sleep. Sometimes he wakes himself up crying, but some of the time he just cries, and when I go in there he is still sound asleep.
Meg- Poor J, does he settle easily once you go in?
Shar- Glad to hear your dad is doing well.
Bea- Like you said be good if the 2 of you can be friends for the sake of the girls. Will be so much easier for them. I guess its nice he bought you the flowers. Hopefully it is his way of saying he knows he's stuffed up and wants to do the right thing by you all.
Well my excitement at the moment is footy, being September and the fact my team made it to 4th place on the ladder I am overjoyed! I know most of you in here aren't footy mad so won't understand my excitement, lol.
bummer you didn't win a few million $$ caddie, you could have taken us all on a holiday
shar - I'm glad Ambah's party went well. What a trooper your dad is, only panadol for pain relief! I hope he doesn't drive your mum crazy while he's at home!
Pool sounds lovely ... I think Ambah's present is going to arrive just in time for her
It's soooo hot here today. I know I said that yesterday, but it's hotter today Got the air con on the girls room while they sleep.
Just been car shopping, again. This time looking at a Rav 4. Decisions, decisions.
ETA: shell, I'm footy mad, but only for nrl. But woohoo on your team making 4th place!!
Atually shell i watch most games of footy! not just my team. I go for hawks!!! and uddy kicked his 100th because he is such a legend!!!!
Meg i know boys tend to get night terrors starting at this age. Have you thought of that? My friends boy use to get them bad and even with parents there comforting he was off in a different land.
I have heard about night terrors too. I was watching Sunrise one morning and they were talking about it. Apparently Nat's little boy has night terrors. They were saying how it's best not to wake them, but to comfort them while they're still alseep. And they will grow out of it in time.
I ditto you on the hot Jodi, its 30deg here according to the car temping system! Im trying real hard not to put the a/c on except when the boys nap in their rooms. I still say go the Kluger if you can afford it. I love love love it, we can fit oodles of stuff in it and the back seats fold right down flat so Ry has already done some rubbish trips to the dump. Its even got climate control which is awesome, no guessing how far to turn the dial to be cool in the car. Drives like a dream too. If we lived closer Id let you have a drive to test it out.
Meg, Jett does the same thing, has done since he was about 9mths old. Sometimes he even "wakes up" in a night terror and fights us physically. We've had a few bruises and cuts from trying to calm him down. Not alot you can do except comfort him in some way. I usually just sit on the side of his bed and pat his head or back til he quiets down, usually doesnt take long. I also find he does it more when hes lost his blankie or is hot. Caddie, poo you didnt win a million, maybe next time! Shell, yay for your team making the semi's but I dont follow any kind of footy anymore. Ry follows AFL but Freo has sucked big time this year (bit like the cowboys eh Jodi ) so he's stopped watching
OMG I had the best night out on Saturday. I left at 5pm and didnt get home til nearly 2am!! We had dinner at a mexican restaurant called Cactus Jacks, omg so yummy. We had chocolate nacho's for dessert, yes you read right, choc nacho's! I think I gained 10kgs just by looking at them. Then we danced the night away in the city. Theyre great girls, super fun, so maybe I might not be a loner anymore
Yeah well, lets not go there with the Cowboys.
That's great you had a good night out Anna. Is Ry into motorcross at all? Heath and I are going to the Supercross in Townsville in November. We'll be heading down there Saturday morning, coming home Sunday some time.
So far we've tested driven the Prado, Kluger & Rav4. They're all fantastic cars, but I think the Rav4 suits us better. We think we'll just stick with the 2 girls, and it's a perfect size for that. And it's quite roomy, even the boot. We've just got to talk Toyota down in price, which we know we can. We've been there done that with Heath's ute a few years ago.
Cool we looked at Rav4's too but the Kluger was the right price. Good luck with talking them down. Um I dont think he's into Motorcross. He's got to be the only soldier that isnt into some sort of motor sport lol
Happy birthday Ainsley, hope that you had a great day !
Well i thought Alexander was recovering from surgery ok, however he has been having fevers and has screamed the house down the last 2 nights, so off to the DR today and looks like the grommet in his right ear has fallen out! it was just put in.. grrrr
he also has really bad breathe which is from an infection in his throat, so on AB and we see the surgeon on Thurs..
hope that everyone else is well.. have not had a chance to read personals, have just snuck on here for 5mins while hubby is looking after the kids.
Hope you are all well!
we have all been sick over here last couple weeks

Tiarna has been crawling for a couple weeks now
she is soooo fast and is all over the place!! cheeky bum is even learning to sit up by herself too!
still not sleeping through though i dont know what to do or try but she still gets up every three hours.. and is only drinking 120mls each feed and if im lucky might do 180 rarely.
savanna has started taking her nappy off whenever she wants me to change her.. slacking on the TT atm cause we are all sick..
