Babies Born ~ September 2007 #63

Cass, it can't hurt to take her to the Dr. It could be normal but if it is something then it is better to deal with it sooner.

We went to a birthday party yesterday and W had a great time. They had a big collapsible pool and W absolutely loved it so we stopped and got ourselves one on the way home. It is 12 foot and a reasonable depth so that should be fun for the rest of summer.

Cass - if you are worried, take her. Although I look at the pictures of you and DH and you are both on the slim side too.

Arte - jealous of your pool!

MD - yep, we made it to the beach. Was lovely down there. We got DD out past the (little) breaking waves for a good swim. Today I have my cardy and tracky pants on, it's 15 degrees less than yesterday.

Hi everyone

Sorry I've been slack.
Congrats Art!!!! Thats great news and I love the Sept birthday month theme going. Will make picking up bargains from the mid year toy sales perfect lol
I hope everyone is doing well...way too much to catch up on but saw Artes sig and had to pop on.

**Artechim** · February 6th, 2011, 06:03 PM

Kate, thanks. I am glad they come after the toy sales - DH's cousin just had her baby at the end of June (sales in July) and I was thinking why the heck did you have him three days before the sales!! (cos she had a choice in the matter lol)

Cass, we are getting stupidly hot muggy weather here, apparently fallout from the cyclone. One place in the South Island got 40 degrees today!

O.K, so I started a bit of a slinging match this morning. I hope that I didn't upset anyone in here. It probably isn't any of my business, but then again this is my community and I don't like the idea of hushing up unsavory acts, just going along to get along. If for example I heard of people being bullied off my kindy's committee I would sure as hell say something and I don't see how BB is any different. As Inanna herself once said, ignorance is just ignorance.

**Cassius2** · February 6th, 2011, 07:12 PM

yeah i saw that thread Arte...eeeep! but again we do see this from time to time on BB, storm in a teacup and it will blow over...well that's what i am telling myself

Cally, it was pretty cool today here - bit of relief since it's been quite hot all week and you know i"m not a summer-lover! Not exactly cardy weather but not far off it. Your beach visit sounds lovely.

Kate - good to hear from you sweetie - understand if you don't post very often, I imagine you are a pretty busy lady these days!

Arte - I would hope that no matter what our opinions are on the situation, either it's origins or how it has been handled, that we all have enough respect and enough of a bond in here to not let it get in the way of our September mummies groove, kwim?

Had a very boring weekend, the most exciting highlight was picking weeds out of the lawn this arvo (it's in the same category of entertainment as squeezing your blackheads and alphabetising your CD collection). ho hum

**AnyDream** · February 6th, 2011, 09:15 PM

LOL...did he not realise he was coming today or just at 7 pm?

Does this mean you are in for IL-orama for the next few weeks?

**Cassius2** · February 6th, 2011, 09:24 PM

he totally forgot what day he was coming

...it's not often that i say this BUT.... men.

lol.

Again I hope I haven't upset anyone in here. This group is very important to me and I would hate to think that I had marred it. I won't mention it again, if there are any problems we might just need to agree to disagree on this one.

**Junglemum** · February 7th, 2011, 05:34 AM

Oz- I'll be here in May.

LOVE to see you.

Cally- I have definite blonde tendencies regularly

I was thinking i might try and get Lu into Kinder when we are back for a few months. Not sure how i'll go at this late stage, but no harm in looking around.

Hi Kate.

MD- No excuses for May ok?

Cass- At least he did remember! I don't think Leila looks ill, or too skinny. She is a slight little thing compared to my big whoompa. But as always, i think peace of mind is a wonderful thing and there is no harm in getting her checked. I think as long as her input and output are good though there isn't too much reason for concern.

Arte- I don't think you started anything love. Whatever the hell happened was going to happen anyway, i do think it's a shame it sometimes gets to that around here, nature of the beast i guess. I don't always agree with everything my friends post, doesn't mean i think any less of them. It would be a boring world if we all agreed on everything.

Having said that i don't have a problem with anything you posted, and i'm certainly not upset about anything.

**Artechim** · February 7th, 2011, 07:46 AM

Thanks JM

Guys, I have a problem. I am not sure what to do. This morning DH's truck had some mystery oil leak and now there is a huge oil patch in our driveway - in the shape of male genitalia! How do I get it off?? I am looking at it now and it is disturbingly accurate! Why can't we just get a picture of Jesus like normal people?

**Trillian** · February 7th, 2011, 08:00 AM

hot soapy water Arte, and if it doesn't completely clean it, it may not look like a penis anymore. Oh and can you please take a pic of it before you do it?
