i'm baaaaaaaak!!!!!
had a few dramas re connecting the internet grr the company we were with wanted to charge us $145 to relocate the service and $40 to disconnect lol so i signed up with a new company.. didnt like the old one anyway made sure when i signed up there was no rediculous fees like that for if we moved lol..
well weve had all the usual moving house dramas lol my dad hit the fence with the moving truck so theres a bit of aa gouge out of the wood there that we needa fix lol the fridge died and we are borrowing my mums second fridge and the crappy old washing machine someone gave us dosnt wash properly lol that and the rediculous amount companies charge you to get things like electricity set up lol.. all in all though its really nice to finally be in our own space and not worry about anyone else.. Asha is loving it crawling around as she pleases shes got 3 teeth now and the 4th one is coming and the teething poos are like nothing i could have imagined!! the rash that goes with it is pretty awful too!! ummmm what else asha is pulling herself to her feet now instead of just her knees which is pretty exciting!!
hope everyone is going well havnt had a chance to catch up on everything yet as the postman literally just delivered my modem and i was so excited i had to come straight on and post coz i felt so isolated without the net!! good to be back hehehehehe
YAY! Noni's back! We've missed you hun, everyone's been wondering how you're going in your new house! Sounds like all the regular moving dramas (I don't think I have *ever* had a move without at least one appliance dying) and how funny is your Dad hitting the fence with the truck! Sorry shouldn't laugh but a fence-hitting story is always good value! I KWYM about those teething poos, aaaaah pure acid I think. WTG Asha pulling up onto her feet (gotta move everything another foot or two higher LOL)!
Well Maddie finally woke up, eyes filled with gunk. The poor thing is so sad, I've been hand washing like crazy and linen/clothing washing in warm water. I've heard its very contagious though so hopefully DP & I can keep away from it. Poor Mads.
Yay Noni I am so happy & excited for you!! Now you can walk around the house nakie whenever you want hehe. Yes moving is fun but there are always dramas attached! I also had a little laugh at your dad backing into the fence sorry lol.
MD - THANKS SO MUCH! I will give MD's sinus headache remedy a go. Bum I've just been at the chemist I should have bought some fess. Hang on I just checked & we have some WOO HO! Thanks MD. I also stocked up on vitamin c & echenacea? tablets, I hate feeling like this. Does your DH make little clips of the girls? I worry because we have so much of Maddie on camera but I havent even uploaded the videos, which I should seeing as if we had a break in the video camera would probably go. I must check out that program thanks for the recommendation.
Leemar - Thanks I got some over the counter stuff, so I'll give that a go along with salt water and camomile tea. If it doesnt improve off to the doc I go!
I'm still alive everyone LMAO. Just so unbelievably busy. Paige's birthday today - my baby girl is 4!!!!!! She loved her bulldozer LOL, now Lindsay is narked because she wont let him play with it and he keeps ranting about it being a stupid idea to get a girl a boy's toy. made this obscenely fiddly Strawberry Shortcake cake to have at preschool today - will post a pic later.
Will be out nearly all weekend too - Auskick and Netball tomorrow morning and then there is an Auskick carnival on Sunday. Then Monday we are off to wagga to pick up Lindsay's new specks.
To all those mummy's with sickly babes, I hope they are all on the mend soon, it near breaks your heart to see them feeling so poorly.
MD just popped on to say I am so silly, why on earth didnt I use the Fess before!? I am already feeling much better all the pressure seems to have eased!
Sherie - Yay Happy bday to Paige! Thats so funny of Lindsay! I cant imagine having a 4 year old....
Happy Birthday to Paige! I would have loved a digger when i was a kid, i always wanted what my brothers had. Can't wait to see s'berry shortcake. Take me back to me childhood.
Lu has developed a rash on her torso. Have stopped AB's and will get it checked in the morning. Man i feel like i live at the freaking Dr's ATM! Wonder if they have frequent flyers?
MM- You seem to be having a bad run too! Hopefully next week is better for us all.
MD- Those bonds suits sound awsome, wish they still had them. Might check out the bonds factory outlet, ya never know.
Hi Girls! am admitting to scanning but not posting!! have been trying to get busy on one of my chapters...12,000 words so far....
MD: yeah i need one of those grippy feet wondersuits too!! not for me obviously....lol! although...
yeah, i think looking back on it that i did have pretty bad PND. at the time i just kept on truckin', as i thought that it was what and how most mums felt. oh and teensy bit of denial can go a looonggg way! i think things though are getting better. lots of good support around for it these days. it does concern me though that it might come back if we have another baby so that is stopping me from wanting to TTC for no.2. bit bummed but Leila is the BEST (unbiased LOL!) bub in the world, and we were told we probably wouldnt be able to make babies, so she is extra precious!
what is the parents as teachers thing?? sounds interesting!! IKWYM about the bubs loving the bling bling shiny stuff! we have a whole dinner set in stainless steel from our Fiji days and leila cuts loose on them in the kitchen, banging them everywhere thinking she is a rock god or something.
Sherie: oh i soo needed you to be my mum when i was about 5/6 years old! i really really wanted a tonka truck!!
Noni: welcome back sista!! wow you are fast in getting the Internet back on! takes me ages to get my A into G!
Ange: jeepers! that rash sounds scary. hope it can get sorted out asap. poor wee bubs ATM so many are sick!
Leanne: Good luck for the festivities this weekend! how exciting for the boys! i still remember my 4th birthday...we ran feral all through the backyard high as kites on red cordial and fairy bread....
Cally: we are also out of bread and milk!! yippeee know what i am doing tomorrow!! LOL! i love a good excuse for eating the goodies!
Pregpan: SNAP!! we do the same with Leila at childcare. every second friday DH and I have a 'date' day. we both take time off and go and have us time. usually to the movies and a cafe/restaurant that we cant take leila to! it is great for us as we dont have family around to help out, so this is our bit of R and R! highly recommend it to anyone!
AFM: well leila is definitely not a healthy little chooky ATM. she has no voice and her nose is running like niagra. she has temps, but managed to spurt most of the panadol down her front, so now i have to wait the 6 hours before i try again...egad. i am also sick, so head feels a bit like jelly...may have to take MD sinus relief regime! LOL!
My granduncle just found out that my Opa is coming and is over the moon. my Opa hasnt been back to Holland in almost 20 years. (Bill my uncle has always had to come here!). so now he is upgrading my Opa to business class!!! they are very close as they lost their mum during WW2 when they were 9 and 12 years old and had to live on the streets for 3 years in indonesia before being captured by the Japanese forces (then spent the rest of the war in a camp). they were sent back to holland after the war, but neither really spoke Dutch and neither had ever seen holland! so they really relied on eachother during this time. must have been pretty terrifying. so yeah, it's a big moment for both of them.
anyway, best dash as i had told myself that i was coming out here to do work!! (yeah right!)
good to be back hehehehehe
