talking about windy!
we've just had a tree fall down on the roof of our 2 garages. has gone through the roof of one.
made the most almighty noise. scared the sh$t out of me. i ran into the bedroom and grabbed lewis out of bed cos i was so frightened.
all is ok now, dp came home from work and is sorting it out now...

OM*G Rainforest! It sure is windy here too. Was there anything in the garage that is no longer? Are there any other trees that could fall on the house? I would have had to change Lu's nappy and MY undies after that! Glad all is ok with you and the little man.
Not long ago your user name was Blair, now it's back to Rainforest?!

everything in the garage is ok.- just the roof has been damaged.
there are trees everywhere around here. we might have to look at getting someone in to do some maintainence.
seems there was a bit of a mix up with my username. i think it's all sorted now.

gosh Rainy how scary! hope u dont mind me calling you rainy!!!
meant to tell you all - Noah's latest fave food is pasta (risoni) with cheese, tomato and tuna sauce... v easy and he wolfs it down. i found he slept really well after eating it too...
i make the basic cheese sauce which i posted a while back (for the fish dish), stir in some passata or pureed tomato and then a tin of sirena tuna in spring water (flaked). easy. you can make up a huge batch of the sauce and freeze it. i give it to him with lots of sauce and he eats HEAPS of it. yummy for adults too!! other things he has been trying - veal and mushroom ragu (he also loved this), baked zucchini and tomato risotto - both of thesewere our dinner mashed for him...

Rain - Jesus!! Im glad everyone is okay! I remember you were worried about the trees last time there was a storm. Is it a storm or just wind??
Pregpan - Your making me hungry woman!! I bought some tinned samon, do you have any ideas one what I could make Rory with this?? Your poor little guy, he hasnt had a good run has he? I hope he gets better soon hon.
oh my lord, that sounds amazing! Im still addicted to Callys jaffa muffins haha.Blair- i'm making a chunky dark choc and banana cake, it's my fave!
Noni - How is your new house going??? Bummer about the smell! Maybe burn some candles or buy a couple of those glade plug-ins. I still remember the smell of our house when we bought it, it wasnt smelly it was just someone elses smell iykwim.. Sorry to hear you DP is being a pain in the backside, men are good at that haha!
Just got back from the chemist. It seems to be Rory's sinus, you can see it under his eyes too. They gave me Dimetapp and told me to use it with baby panadole. Silly me didnt ask how though. Do I give him a dose of panadole and dimetapp at the same time?? Seems like alot of medicine for a little baby!
Saw a great CAT truck set on sale at k-mart. Must grab it for Rory for his birthday. Everything in his room is truck themed because his daddy fixes them!

Pregpan - that sounds yummy, have noted it down and will whip it up for K one day.
Falguni - thanks so much for the recipe. I was sure I photocopied it but it must have been 'tidied up' by DH
Rainforest - we had a little branch (more a twig) fall on our deck this afternoon and I hit the roof, I can't imagine how much noise there would have been at your place! Gum trees are nice - but not when it's windy! Glad you're all OK

Renee - you could do a salmon mornay. Make a white sauce, add a bit of steamed onion, carrot, peas and stir through the salmon. You could also put some risoni in to bulk it up a bit or serve it over pasta spirals.

Hi Girls!!
mmm all this talk of food is making me HUNGRY!!! unfortnately i just couldnt be bothered cooking for myself tonight. i cooked leila up a feast of fried haluomi fingers, chicken broth with pasta and vegemite on toast with puree apple and banana chaser...I hear you rain...these bubs eat well!! that said i pilfered some haloumi that she had left over...
Rain: i am going to speculate on the name change...cause it is driving me insane!!...are you moving to some gorgeous exotic tropical locale???? please say yes so that i can live vicariously through you...
Stella seems more like herself today. although still very meek. i am wondering if something is not right with her as she does have epilepsy from a small bleed that happened on her brain a few weeks after leila was born...hmmm. also, she is pretty scared of schoolkids as a couple of boys really hurt her 2 weeks ago by stomping on her leg while she was sleeping. but hopefully the behaviouralist can work with us on that one. i havent called him yet as i want DH to be there as well...
Renee: yeah i can also vouch for the salmon mornay. the kiddlywinks love it and it is something the whole family can eat. or you could make salmon and potato patties...mmmm
Noni: yeah i reckon wait for a quiet time to have a good D&M with DP. you both probably need it. and yeah, if you are not getting a good sleep, then you might as well put asha in a cot and have a few nights of disruption until she gets used to it. that way, you can get a good sleep under your wings in the not too distant future.
Renee: Hello!! long time no hear! i was just thinking this morning that its been awhile!! and i also saw the CAT trucks at kmart. they look awesome!
Pregpan: eeekk! what a big weekend! glad that it appears to not be too serious with the little man. Leila also had a viral rash that totally freaked me out and we also headed straight to the hospy. i dont like to muck about with that kind of stuff.
Cally: i found two kinds of trike that seem interesting...the first is the eurotrike. and the other is one that i found in target. they both seem awesome so now i need to decide...
Where's Sherie?!
AFM: well things have been pretty hectic not having DH around and 4 hungry mouths to feed (DD, Stella and the two Kats). also tuesday is mums group day and that always rages out of control.
we were woken up last night by the gale storm. we live opposite a massive reserve and all the gum trees were making horrible cracking noises. a few have lost branches. and my backyard looks like a bomb hit it. not to mention my roses.
they reckon we are in for another bout tomorrow morning...eeekkk!
Leila is getting better. it has been taking a really long time this time. not too happy about it as i hate to see and her cough so much.
anyway best head off and raid the fridge/pantry as i am officially hungry.
