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!)
