Renee, are you o.k? Hope you can sort it out. I have been on the brink of ending it a couple of times since W was born, it isn't a very nice situation to be in. How is your aunt?
MD, hope you got a decent nap while E was sleeping. Noni could be on the right track with teeth, maybe they are on their way? Maybe a dose of nurofen is a good idea anyways, won't hurt her but might buy you a bit more sleep?

Art - That helps to know someone has gone through it. Its the first time I have told anyone that things are not 'perfect'. Im trying to cover up the fact that things arent great to everyone else. I dont want anyone to think im a failure. When its good its great, when its bad its horrible. We werent like this before Rory was born and yet he was the best thing to happen to both of us...
My Aunty is still waiting on her results! They were meant to be in by Monday, JESUS you think they would put a rush on a test like that!!
MD- I hope once AF p!sses off you will be feeling a bit better. Ever watch Futurama? (If you havent stop reading coz ill sound nutty) I soooo wish every mother had one of those brain reader hats that the professor put on Gunta the monkey hehe. If DH complains again tell him you will go on the tour of Turkey while he stays home with the girlsBut seriously, I hope things settle down for you on the E front. Oh and she sounds like she is really getting around now. What a clever champ!

hey renee - big hugs - you are having an awful time at the moment... i hope you can sort things out with DH. are you guys getting any time alone? it is such an adjustment having a bub isnt it and all the pressures it brings - not to mention all the additional stress you guys are under with your aunt and dwayne's uncle (??) etc. Thinking of you - can always vent to us here you know (the benefits of online friendships)
MD - you sound a bit happier - i didnt realise DH was away (again) right now, we are like the single married women of canberra! i think my Dh knows if he DARED to complain aboiut working hard... the locks would be changed...clever miss E!!!
Noni - hope Asha is doing ok with her teeth, N is having a bad day bc of them.
hi to everyone else.

big big hugs to md, noni, renee and everyone else who can use them!
renee, you're not alone. didn't voice it out to anyone either but was actually having second thoughts about the vegas wedding just before we went on holidays. i know that it doesn't really make much of a difference since we're in a de facto relationship for 8 years now but with all the stress and dh p!ssing me off heaps just before and while we were on holidays, i was doubting that getting married was the right move. kept it to myself though and just went with the flow (largely coz' i knew that a lot of people had made plans to go to our wedding already). now, no regrets....not at this particular moment anyway....ask me in 24 hours....lol.
md, congratulations on e crawling.

Renee hun, I'm so sorry that things aren't great at home for you ATM - you have so many external pressures happening too with your family being ill. it's no wonder things are so tense. I hope you and Dwayne can sort things out
Noni, if you google them, you will come up with a few sites taht sell them. They are really exxie though - I couldn't justify it JIC it didn't work LOL - such a scrooge I am. Don't worry about the amount Asha is having now - when you think about all the solids she is having and what milk she does have - thats a lot for a little girl to have in a day. She is taking as much as she needs to.
Marydean! How exciting that Miss E is on the move now. I really wish I could come and give you a hand so you can get some sleep
Pregpan, how do you feel after your first week back? Did you get all your errands done too?
Cally, have you tried some infants friend with Miss K? I use it for Alister because he can get really constipated sometimes and it really does work well. I give it to him just before bed every night.
Yesterday was lovely. Leiah has grown SO much since I saw her last and she is a real little girl now. Katie was really happy to finally see Alister too and there were no *problems* at all either. I got a heap of photos of Leiah, but DH took the camera to work tonight so I can't upload them yet.
And I am STILL cleaning up after mice. My house reeks something shocking and smells like a giant mintie threw up in here from all the peppermint oil everywhere, which is supposed to deter mice (and is working at ALL I might add), and the smell of mice. I woke up this morning to the familiar smell of dead mouse in the bathroom, in particular the linen cupboard, so I have had to take everything out of the bottom of the cupboard and wash it - the the bit that breaks my heart is that a fair bit of it I have only just washed and put back in there. And it is a big cupboard too so there is about 6 loads of washing to do. So the tally is now 11 and there is another one inside that I know of. I am so over it - I have cleaned this house from top to bottom trying to make sure there is no food about and just cleaning up mouse poo etc. Oh, and to cap it off - yesterday morning I realised that they had been in the trug-tub where I keep Alisters toys - so they have all been washed in dettol and I borrowed MIL's steam cleaner to do everything that couldn't be washed. Who in their right mind would live on a blooming farm?
