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 tehehehehehehehGlad 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

Oh gosh, it sounds like a lot of us aren't doing too well on the health side of things! I ended up having to pick up the other DSS from school today because he was sick with a fever. Now there is 4/5 of us sick in the house. DH is the only one germ-free. Looks like tomorrow I'll be running an infirmary haha!
Sending out huge amounts of "Get well" vibes!!!

Hubs is home today. The joys! lol We never really used to get sick, even with kids but the last few months haven't been kind.
We're all a bit out of sorts but very glad that I hadn't organised Lachie's party to be for another 2 weeks. At least we will all be over it by then.

Just popping in to say I hope everyone is feeling a little bit better - I dont want to jinx my family but it seems we are on our way to full health - Yay

Hey everyone! Just letting you know we are still alive here! I have been mega busy lately, and haven't been on the computer much.
I hope everyone gets better quickly.
I've started walking with one of the mums from school, and have been losing a bit of weight, so feeling a bit better about myself. Jake, Zac, and Logan are all well. Logan is walking really well now.
I will be back tomorrow to do a better post, but wanted to let you all know that I have been thinking about all of you.

hi ladies
just started another FB event - i know some of you can't make the zoo trip, and there was talk of doing a kris kringle type thing for the kidlets then - rather than some of the kidlets missing out cos they can't be there, i started a seperate KK event - if anyone wants to participate, i'm happy to coordinate it (i get the joy of coordinating the family one each year and love it - so i'm happy to do this one!)
Registered User
Still planning to come to the zoo but am in on the KK event too - I have an interview tomorrow so need to do research for that - hopefully will get a job soon then I can do a massive post!!!
Registered User
We're in for the KK - AND coming to Melb for 5-6 days, going to our Zoo Day, the aquarium, the Titanic Exhibition and a bit of shopping
We'll have an apartment (yet to book) but plan to book one in the city somewhere so that can be our wet weather option
Gotta submit my coles order, back later,
Nay

hi again
figure i've been a slacker lately - reading but not posting. i guess it's partially laziness, mostly to save you all hearing the woe is me that is my life atm. E's sleep is up the creek cos of teeth, mine is up the sleep cos of her teeth and stress. life is just full on and i am sick of feeling like i have nothing positive to say! i read, i want to post persies but i just - i dunno - energy gets used for other stuff and i end up closing the tab before bed, unanswered again. sigh
so, on that note - time to share some positives now - yes, this will be a full on gush about my poppet so skip over this bit if you don't want to hear happy in love proud mummy gush!
i can't believe how much E is coming ahead in leaps and bounds. she is so switched on, and every single day she is doing something new to surprise and enthrall me. i am so in love!! she walks everywhere, actually, she walks almost everywhere, runs when she can (which is scary - she is gonna be a runner!). she is talking up a storm and constantly amazes me with what she comes out with. her game of the moment is grabbing her remote (yes, she has her own remote - so she doesn't steal ours lol) - and using it as a phone. we get 'allooooooooo allo' until we reply - but it has to be with a phone or remote to our ear - just replying isn't enough! if we don't, we get "ALLOOOOOOOOOO MUM!". she will giggle and reply to whatever we say, and replies to "i love you" with "yuvooo mummy" (or daddy - whichever of us she can coerce into playing).
she is a rather smart poppet (yeah i know, proud mummy much? lol) - when she is tired, she grabs her wrap and lays on her little couch for a minute. if we don't get to her, she comes over and gets our attention and goes back. if she needs a nappy change, she will grab a nappy from her nappy bag and put it on her couch. she will even grab a full outfit (nappy, jim jams, slippers) when we get home from being out, and lay them, and herself, on her couch! i didn't think it was a big deal - it's just what she does - but a BB'er with a bubba born earlier in May said he wasn't doing that sort of thing and she was surprised, so maybe she is advanced more than i thought.. i dunno!
this afternoon, she decided it was bed time - came up to me and tried and undo my shirt. when i told her that wasn't what you do cos it's rude, she reached down beside me, grabbed the pillow we use at feed time, dragged it up on my lap with her and started pulling at my shirt again, going taaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa the whole time. she was asleep within minutes. she is so cute!
she knows how to knock on the door to wake granpa and only to do it when granma's alarm goes off.... ahhhhhhhhhhh i could gush all day - i'm just so damn in love with her - all the other stuff going on fades to nothing - where we live doesn't matter - it's just a house. it will be a home becuase it's where our family will live. we will be content because family is worth infinitely more than the walls in which it lives.
