Hi Girls!

Noni: ah the wonderful smells of those that walked before us!! LOL!! i remember when we moved in here that the place just reeked. the whole bathroom was black with mould and lets not even start on the stove!! this was AFTER the real estate made them come back and clean it up 'properly', eeeeww gross!

Cally: yeah the tugging on the ear doesnt sound too great. does it look red? maybe get a pharmacist to check it out (saves waiting for a DR sometimes!)...oh i can be impatient!

MD: to you babe! that really sucks that he is going for so long. and bummer that you guys cant go with him! Well when i FINALLY get to canberra we'll definitly have to catch up!!
we are soo buying Big Love 1!! we are addicted!
oh there's a kindergym here! but i thought they were for older kids??
do you think the gymbaroo book is any good?? i wanna buy it, but if in practice it's not that great, then i wont bother.
yeah, we are pretty devastated about our dog stella. it came out from the blue. so hopefully the guy will be able to tell us what we can (if anything) do. she has epilepsy, which i think has added to her anxiousness. but still, i dont think that i could ever trust her around kids again, and that doesnt bode well for her and Leila.
but, i will keep an open mind and see what he reckons...

Leanne: glad to hear that the party was a blast! did you get any good ideas?? i have been trawling the magazine aisles for any party issues...i want to really keep it simple, yet memorable. that said i did see the COOLEST little party dress by collette dinnigan enfant...it has "fairy" written on the front and has a gorgeous little ra ra tutu type thing on the bottom...but the $$ were too scary to contemplate!!

hello to everyone else! i had better dash..

P.S. does anyone have good recommendations on pushbar trikes?? i have been looking for them for leila's 1st birthday and there doesnt seem to be a great deal around...
