    Holy cow...didnt we just start that other thread....doesnt seem like long ago...so much chatting!

    Kaz, my issue is getting on the scales daily! I should just do it once a week but cant help myself! Youre good on the exercise! How cute with pips kissing and also sharing with the dog. Liv does not like to share anything with our dog....its Bibbys! She wants it all to herself!

    Mel- I just googled childcare in our area...good luck

    Kel- doh i thought i was first!

    Just a quick one to say hi and I hope everyone that has sick bubbas are feeling a bit better now
    We have been out at an "at home" playgroup today at one of the ladies houses as playgroup is off for the holidays - it was really fun! DH has come home sick from work so I better go and look after the big bubba xxx

    HEy Jen...have fun looking after your big bubba....they really are big bubbas when they are sick, arent they?!?!?!?

    Well I am pretty much organised for Adams big bash on Saturday. I managed to out source all the desserts and salads...so no cooking for me!!!! Yay. So all I need to do is get it all together and BAM! My little brother (well hes not so little at 31) and his wife are going to bring the girls home to bed and stay with them til we come home. We have hired a hall til 1am so not a hugely late night. Then on Tuesday I take Adam out for his suprise birthday present....diving with the sharks. he still has no idea and has been really good not to snoop!!! I will be diving too, so am getting a little nervous and excited!

    Girls are much better. Olivia has been waking up with nightmares lately. Last night I heard her sleep talking about iggle piggle and upsey daisy....they would freak me out too. Then she screamed for a while but was still sleeping. i jusyt cuddled her til she woke up and she said something about a big dolly! She managed to get back to sleep ok.

    Anyway hope you are all well.

    Hi girls,

    Well, tonight I feel pretty crappy! AF is here and my back is killing me, I have a headache and my tummy hurts... Poor me, lol! Oh and I'm T-I-R-E-D! But that is nothing new.

    Kaz, good job doing wii fit! I so want one...I am so not losing any weight this week, lol. As I said AF is here and I am eating all the crap I can get my hands on. Piggy I am.

    Jen, Hope your DH is over his man flu. I just looked after mine for a few days with a man flu. Big sooky lala he is when he's 'sick'.

    Mel, your weekend sounds like lots of fun! Hope you both have a great time
    How horrible for O with her dreams. Lily talks in her sleep sometimes and wakes really distressed somenights too. I'm not sure if it's dreams or just cause she's in her own bed alone, and not with DH or me. But we are still getting some nights with her in her onw bed all night, yay! I think she's finally getting it! Some nights she even wakes and goes back to sleep in her own bed too. Some nights she still comes in for snuggles.
    Glad to hear the girls are better

    Well we are mostly better too. Liam is still having bad night's though, but I'm not sure why. Took him to the dr today for a really bad nappy rash and had him checked out, but all is well which is great, but not, cause now I don't know why he's so unsettled. I think he must actually be teething, or maybe just a growth spurt...who knows?? Not me!! Second time round you'd think I'd know more huh?!
    DH is working tomorrow and Sat nights, so no exciting weekend for us, again. Actually he's workjing the next 4 or so Saturdays, then stupid soccer on Sundays...Have I mentioned how much I HATE soccer. I'll tell you all again...I HATE soccer season! I have such limited time with DH as it is, and this just f***s up the only 2 days we have a chance of possibly doing stuff together, if he's not working. Ugh!!! I know he needs this time out and he really loves it but I'm so uninterested in it and now that it stuffs up our time, well it just adds to my hatred of the stupid game! (Sorry to anyone who loves it).
    Ok that's enough whining...again
    I hope everyone is well and has a great weekend
