Hey Girls,

Nicky sorry to hear you guys are so sick, hope poor Lachie has a great birthday regardless of sickness, good thing you have a bit more time for everyone to recover before the party. You should reschedule your birthday too, I’m thinking August 5th can be your Bday this year – have a great day, it’s my RDO so I’ll take Bailz out for coffee (me) and cake (him AND me) to celebrate on your behalf

Jacinta – Totally know what you mean about taking a sick, yet momentarily happy and smiley baby to the Dr – LOL, it usually results in a return visit the following day. My Dr’s not overly keen on prescribing AB’s for little ones unless absolutely necessary which is fine by me. Bailz has only had them twice, but has had numerous colds, coughs etc, but mostly he shrugs them off, he’s only gotten more of chesty type infection twice which the AB’s helped with.

Krystie – Totally know what you mean about sending the sick kids (or DHs in my case) back to school / work! Sean was home sick on my work from home day last week, although he wasn’t under my feet at all, still would have been nice to pack him off to work teheheheheheheh Glad to hear DSS is on the mend!

Amy – I got too much, in reflection I’ve gone a bit overboard (surprise surprise) so I might actually keep a couple of presents for Bailz birthday instead. And although I got him one of those clam pool things to fill up with sand for Christmas, I am actually planning on filling it up in Spring as I want him to start getting outside more, we always seem to be locked up inside out of the cold and rain. At Childcare he LOVES it outside, they just got new turf (fake) over the weekend so the play areas are fab now, and we had a nice day here today so they were outside all day having fun. I got a music set, a jack in the box, a big truck for the sand pit and a potty (sesame street of course LOL). I got Uno Attack for me and Sean (we are big kids) and some presents for my godson so have Christmas well sorted as far as all the kids go!

Well I’m off to Sydney for work next week, I am already on the verge of an anxiety attack regarding leaving Bailz overnight. Unfortunately I won’t even have time to hook up with Amy or Nic as I fly in at about 1030 Tues night, have Work Event all day Wednesday and then fly home about 8pm that night – DOH. Previously I would have been excited about having a work trip, but now it’s just precious time taken from me with regards to my child, my how quickly things change. Fortunately I am working from home the day before (tues) and have the day off after (thurs) so will have plenty of cuddles on those days.

Might head off for an early night, I put Bailz and Sean to bed together a few hours ago (Sean had a headache) and Bailz had a bit of a temp at Child Care today, but seems fine now, he still hasn’t quite ditched his cough yet, but between the three of us, there is always someone sick today, getting back to full health just seems too hard at the moment, I think we all need some rest and relaxation

Nay
