oh bummer meg. I hope everything goes alright tomorrow.
nelle - I thought it'd take that long. I might pop in to the mail centre and see if I can some how make it cheaper to send. I refuse to pay $55 in postage. I might as well fly down there and give it to her myself.
belle, kel, ness, and all the other lurkers, how are you all? How are all the little bubbas going?
That sucks Meg but exactly the reason why I do the long one in the first place. We have family history of diabetes so we get the 2hr test done and dusted without wasting time on the 1hr one. I certainly hope you pass it this time!
Ooh looking forward to seeing new name you've picked AnnaT.
Meg- that sucks hopefully it'll come back ok. Mine came at 7 so was at higher end of ok so lucky didn't have to redo but I reakon its cause I ate hr prior and then got told at pathology no its meant to be 2 hrs prior fasting. Anyways hope you survived sitting around.
Chrissy- That sounds like great idea, perfect send off for Craig I bet he would love it.
Not much here, Matts ****box car broke down yesterday, $440 later its fixed (I don't even think the car is worth that much but can't afford new one just yet). Plus he needs 2 new tyres, thats our xmas present to each other!
Ah dont worry Shell I will probably end up sharing it, I kinda borrowed inspiration from someone else Thankgod Dh agreed to changing it cause I adore the new name now, feel like its 110% right for us.
Sucks about the car, and right before christmas too! Congrats on 30wks btw, Im so jealous your closer to popping than I am, starting to get antsy and very over being huge and tired. Thankgod for nana naps!
The test today was HORRIBLE. I was starving by the end, as I had to wait about an hour before they even started, so was there for 3 hours all up. Took the laptop with me and edited some pictures, so that took up a lot of the time.
Shell- Bummer about the car.
Anna - Spill! I saw your status on Facebook, and now you have me wondering what bub's name will be.
I can't remember what anyone said as I am on a new page, so hello all!
I am going to try and catch an early night tonight.
Just a Q, does anyone else find that their kiddies get untucked in the night, then wake because they are cold? It has been happening a bit to J lately. Thinking of putting him in one of his sleeping bags in his bed so he can keep warm.
Ah I gave a hint on what the name is in my previous post, Im betting atleast two of you clue in to whom Im referring too. Just got to hope Ry doesnt suddenly have a tanty about it cause I am set on using it no matter what. And I truly appreciate being allowed to "steal" it
im thinking River or Rans and Silas as well ..... I still like Gage though
Chrissy - Im over the moon for you babe...that is jsut the best news. I wanna see lots of pics when the time comes.
Meg - ah you poor thing...that stuff is the pits! BLAH
Hello everyone else...having a bad week here!!! Vy is horrible lately. I took all 4 kids to end of school mass last night and she screamed the whole time. I was so embarrassed. Some of the mum's tried to help me but it made her worse. I am so over a screaming kid...I know Wilhelm was bad but god not like this!
We also had the physio here yesterday and we both noticed that Mateauz has gone a bit backwards due to being sick with a virus. Sooooo we have to start more work with him and possible even get a brace for his leg to help soon (so it doesnt turn outwards) ah the joys!!!
Shell- ahh pooey about the car! i just spent $300 on my car too for new shockers and brakes..
Jodi- did you get it cheaper?
AnnaT- well im going to go with River and i like, (have been known personaly to 'borrow' a name from a sept lady!!
Maz- hmm maybe its a girl thing cause Annika sometimes has a week where she will just hing all the tiem, through the night and yep drives even the most saintly bonkers. Hop it improves soon
Meg- ahh pooies abot the GTT, did you get your results yet? (sorry have no idea never ever took any of the GTT tests)
so as for me , well apart form my house selling quicker the we though and now having to live with mm for about 10 weeks nothing much going on
I have weaned Mj now and she will start spending a night a f/n with Ex in the new years. so looking forward to a night completly off. Think im ready t get out and meet new people (men )
Teleahs head is healing well.
Annat!! i hate secrets but cant wait to find out!
Meg, i hope your results come back good for you! Starving a pregnant woman for 3hrs! how dare they.
Maz,i hope mateauz gets better soon. Does he need more physio. Stupid virus! How you feeling? Hows your cold. And i have screaming matches here with both girls at each other.I need a referee whistle.lol
My sister came home sun as a bday suprise for mum.I picked her up from the airport. Mum and dad were very shocked and suprrised! My sis and her boyfriend took the girls to the zoo on tues so i had all day to myself!!! Was great and did lots of sewing. Was good to whip stuff up without feeling guilty! Then my bro came home wed! So our xmas will be so huge this year as we also have others coming who are on there own this year.
Belle,you havnt popped on lately? Just had a thought of you and hope you are ok?
Ness - that's great you're ready to get out there and start meeting some new guys. The first couple of times you have no kids overnight you'll walk around the house lost
maz - oh that sucks about Meateauz going backwards. Here's hoping when he fully recovers from being sick, he'll have enough strength to catch up to where he should be. He's a fighter remember.
What a shame about last night. Did the boys have a good time? Do you think she was tired and that's why she was playing up?
anna - close, but not close enough hey Can you give us a hint? You know we won't let you keep it a secret till he's born
Took Nina to see some Christmas lights last night. She's was so excited as there were a heap of kids running around. I had a lady come up to me and ask how old she is, and when I told her, she couldn't believe how well she's talking. I thought her vocabularly was normal, but she reckons she's advanced But YAY anyway!!
I hurt my neck last night in bed, and it's killing me this morning. Might have to raid the medicine cabinet for something to fix it.
Maz - You sound like you need one as well! Isnt it funny that as a kid we are so excited about school holidays but as parents we could probably be happy if they didnt exist Im just lucky that Dh has a majority of the big school holiday break off so I can run away if need be in a few years time, or atleast delegate some of the whining to him.
Cads - what an awesome surprise for your parents and YAY for some you time!
Meg - have fun at swimming today! Glad your enjoying the rain!
Ok so the new name we decided on is.....................
.
.
.
.
.

.................River Stellan James!
I thought on it for a few days and we had a list of about 5 first names that I liked way better than Gage, and the more I looked at River the more it 'fit' for us as a family. Dh just gave in cause he knows I always get my way. Dubious at first about two R firstnames but I get everyone's names mixed up already so decided it didnt matter I would have used Stellan as the fn but Ry says its too 'out there' (puzzles me that, seeing as Ripley certainly isnt mainstream). River fits our unique style, it isnt in the Top 100 and never has been, easy to spell, sounds great with the boys names and our lastname and I wont mind yelling it 200x a day in a years time haha
And its also very cute that he will be born in water with a water-related first name (Im a dork to think of that arent I!)
So we'll have two Sept siblings sharing names with a Sept 06 kiddo
Anywho should hop off and do things, might take the boyo's swimming this arvo after they wake up from their naps.
I got the River part right I think it's a great name Anna! And most importantly, you and Ryan love it.
meg - woohoo on green grass! How was swimming? Nina's swimming lessons finished last week.
caddie - what a great surprise for your parents!
How are all the kids reacting to Christmas coming, do they sort of understand what's going on?
Nina is very excited, she keeps saying 'santa coming soon. Santa in sky, bring presents for Nina and Emily, sooooon'
So far she's been really good with the presents under the tree. She hasn't opened any of them. She knows who's is who's, and I reckon it'll be her giving them out on Christmas Day!
