    Falguni, I know the feeling. Somedays I manage to get on BB quite a bit, while others I cant & fall behind!

    I just ordered our wedding invitations...I got an absolute bargain and I'm so excited! Thank gosh because I was so close to going down to Myer and just buying a pad of simple invites lol.

    Nella, I just saw Kmart has the clam shells on p 7 of their catalogue for $24.99. Sale starts tmrw. Get in there!!

    MM - well done on your invitation bargain.

    Rainy's 27 weeks???!!! That can't be right!! I feel like I've lost a couple of months in there somewhere. Show us a piccky of the big boy bed once you've got it up.

    Clare my mouth was hanging open at your crazy lady story. Some days I think I'm a crazy lady but then I read that and I realise I ain't scritchin the surface! Glad your DH set her straight. Hope she gets conjunctivitis karma. LOL

    Cally - oh no at DH's work disaster! Hope he can wangle things right in less time.

    Arte - well those reunion shows - when it's a mum and child they've given away at birth - you can't say they don't know each other. The memory of "mother" is really deeply ingrained into people, it's like a primal yearning. Anyway, What's wrong with Oprah? HMMMMMM??? LOL

    Katie, DD1 has a cabin bed (like a captain bed I think). She loves it even tho she's nearly old enough to move on to something else.

    Caught up with another friend today. Starting to have to say my goodbyes which is a bit weird. It's creeping up but I'm still in denial about how short 2 1/2 weeks can be! LOL. Better get my A into G.

    hi girls!

    MM: oohhh the invites!! now things are really starting to get ready! my wedding story for the day is a friend of mine had a dress disaster where the designer (prominent in melb) made her dress in bright apricot instead of the rose cream that she had ordered!! all i can say is that i am happy that i was able to buy straight from the rack. that way you know what you are getting!
    Can i come to your op shops!! here they are always stripped bare by the fashion students from the uni close by... although i picked up an amazing dress for $7. and L gets loads of designer stuff from there. just me that usually misses out. in fiji it was amazing. their op shops are basically stores where fashion houses dump their overstock so you can pick up ALL the big names like DKNY, D&G, prada etc etc for absolute bargains. i got an armani silk skirt there for $2!!! it still had tags!

    MD: WHAT?!! only 2 1/2 weeks!! ARGHHHH! we will be in 'the heart of the nation' around the 10th of Dec, but i guess youse will be busy bees packing

    talking of Oprah did anyone see it yesterday?! OMG I was a bawling mess (i think i need some of arte's stoicism!). i can see just how that kind of stuff happens (it was about a mum who accidently left her 2 year old in a hot car) and makes you really wake up to the impact that tiredness and stress can play in our lives. gave me the heeby-jeebies.

    Rainy: OMG 27 weeks!! congrats girl! that means that ange is also heading into 3rd trimester...wow. ahhh i remember when i was that far along we were heading O/S to see the rellos in italy. never again! LOL! I was too big and uncomfy for economy travel.
    when will L go in the big bed? this is our little issue ATM too.
    oooh i didnt know Pum Patch did organics! i am addicted to targets range, ahh well something else to blow the budget on before DH comes home LOL!

    Katie: checked out the pics! amazing! we really need to get new photos done. we thought we were in a couple of weeks, but the guys we go through have a minimum spend of almost $400. so that will only get us 2-3 photos going by their prices. so had to get DH to cancel. pretty bummed, but maybe in the new year.

    Cally: sorry for your DH. that does sound really stressful. hope he manages ok.

    AFM: well we are ok here. L STILL has a temp. but not as high. around 37.4. so better than yesterday. pretty bummed about it though as it is kindy day (ie work day for me) but now i cant go. DH is still away so i can see my work for the week slipping behind. at least i can try to catch up next week i guess.
    we had a funny day yesterday where we were with my friend sorting out her wedding dress problems and L was running around the dressing room area. she kept peeking through the curtains to get a squiz of girls in their pretty dresses! LOL! my gals a peeking tom! egad...

Hahahah, At swimming yesterday, Lu was sticking her head uner the wall checking out the lady and her kids in the next cubicle getting dressed! These girls are sticky beaks. lol

    If anyone is after a square sandpit like the clam shell but sqaure, They were adversticing them on Lasoo as being on sale in Toys are Us for $29.00.

    MD- i really dont envy you moving at this time of year...... How close to packed are you?
