Thats great news Bath, sending though loads of Give D the job vibes , the house sound purfect for you all, a pool is always a plus...
thats the best thing about BB and FB it doesnt matter where we live we still all get to catch up and know everyones goss...
Mel its nice to know that you GF got though having a baby with MS its such a unknown for us all, doesnt help that she lives in country Vic, so will be a far away from us if anything does go wrong... but she will have her son and her DP would have hopefully moved in by then so will be able to help her out too...
Bath, great news on the house, and bestest 'get the job' vibes for DH!!
You know, I was thinking you wouldn't have to go visitless...I HAVE always wanted to go to at least one of the festivals there, so I could always make a dual-purpose trip Of course, if you ever get the mad itch to attend the Korumburra Buskers Festival, there's a big patch of farm nearby
The Kluger isn't necessarily a 4WD, but maybe the Grande is? I thought it was an all wheel drive, but I may be wrong for this model.
Mel, so great about your foot now!
Oscar is now understanding about joking and pretending, it's so funny. He has some pretty high octane days and then days full of activities that have him exhausted by 7pm.
I'm looking forward to the BB meet!
I'm typing one handed - with the hand that has tendonitis, the other holding girl. Today was going ok till I rearended a lady who stopped after the give way line to give way to a u-turn...I wasn't expecting it and I bumped her Damn, damn, damn! Technically she's at fault for stopping for a u-turner, but I'm liable. Dammit.Girl needs rocking to sleep, I'll keep kurking!
Oooh Bath, so exciting If the job comes off, how soon would you be heading north? So bummed that it will probably be before I am no mat leave though
It will be so great to have family support, though.
Glad everyone seems well We are all good here - 18 weeks today and feeling little kicks now and then. Looking forward to going on mat leave and my midwife is lovely (homebirth here I come).
ciao bellas - Bath see you at the dinner in May
ETA girls if you could give me some advice on this thread of mine it would be appreciated!
not sure all of you know, but my pg turned out to be a blighted ovum...so it's been just over a month since I had my D&C and I'm feeling not to bad.
Other news Cody broke his elbow nearly two weeks ago, he's in a full cast we had our first check up today at the hospital.....two and a half hours later a quick 5min consult and we have to go back in two weeks for the same. Boy I had have to try and entertain two children in a tiny hallway with heaps of people all with a broken limb or something...not fun I can tell you.
We went camping over the weekend just gone, went well......had a few drinks which is out of the ordinary, but was nice to be able to do. Lauchlan was riding his bike down the hill and hit a tree root and lost it, face first into the ground....loosened his two teeth beside his top adult front...lucky the dental van is at the school, went there yesterday and all is well. Lucky he was wearing his helmet too would hate to know what would have happened if he fell differently.
Amanda. D&C's are never easy. You might recall i had a Blighted Ovum too three months before conceiving Wade. Hope all is well with Cody and Lauchlan too! Isn't it strange how accidents and ill health all seem to hit at the same time... let's hope that you've had your 3 events and now it's over for a while! How did Cody break his elbow?
I'm trying to be disciplined and focus on house work but geeze it's exhausting trying to keep going. DH hopefully hears tomorrow whether he has the job... I'm being optimistic and have started packing... so far just things we don't need on a daily basis like Christmas Decorations and jigsaw puzzles (we have sooo many of these!). So even if DH misses out on this job it won't matter if that stuff is in boxes. If DH gets the job he might start in 6 or 8 weeks... often hard to say... his current boss might not release him until the end of the financial year. I hope it's sooner rather than later so that we can rent the house that's available ATM! But not before the Big May Meetup!
yes i have a big 4yr old now! and he had his 4yr immunisation needels today.
OMG i was dreading it but i think he prooved me wrong big time! the first needle he gave a little frown and said "owe" the second needle i dont think he even felt it, i had to look to see if it had already been done!!
Nixon doesnt have to have any more speech therapy!! which is a big milestone, hes been going for 10months, so he has come a long way and much much clearer in speech and his articulation!
I'm attending a support thingo next week called "Parents as case co-ordinators) its once a week for 7wks and they have a chreche for the kids. so hoping to get some advice and ideas on how to cope with certain situations and also hear from other parents going through similar.
He is still going to OT ocne a week, his sensory thing is very up and down....he has gone back to biting and bit Tyron twice last week once on the back and arm, poor thing it must have hurt so much... we are also doing some "Theraputic Listening" we have special headphones and he has to listen to it twice a day. he can play games/puzzles etc just no tv or vid games when its on.
Rory- wow almost half way, do u have your scan coming up? Bath - so where abouts are u moving to? fingers crossed for tomorrow i hope dh gets the job!! Amanda- your boys ahve been in the wars haven't they, poor Cody. and im very sorry to hear your news, must be a hard time for you.
Just a quick one to let all my lovely Junies know that we are UTD... I got a lovely BFP last week, took awhile to sink in, then I wasnt going to say anything until 12 weeks, but thought if anything does happen to this little one I will need the support from BB more than ever so I might as well tell everyone....
I am 5weeks today, so far so good without any MS, but that in its self is enough to worry me lol, but I a sure it will kick in, in the next week or so...
Yay Tali! Such a much wanted little bub you have growing there!
Just quickly yet again!
Rory: Have resent your avvy update... hope they upload it soon!
Maya: Hope you are hanging in there!
Plonkee: Great to see you!
Mel: miss your newsy updates!
Me: Well DH missed out on this first job application... they gave it to a local man... typical country mentality of this particular town. Oh well... it would have been a backward step for DH career-wise. He was doing that type of lending 10 years ago. He was probably over qualified. Doesn't matter... there are a few more roles available with other banks. The only thing that stopped him feeling totally crap yesterday was that soon after he found about the job he also found out that our car loan was approved. This was actually in doubt for a while... stupidly because we have no debt!!! The people processing the loan didn't understand why DH didn't have a mortgage and material assets... of course using our money to be able to let me be a SAHM for 9 years, completing my degree and to put our DD through a good school aren't assets in their eyes. Buuut we got it. Just as bloody well.
I'm going to fly in the face of pessimism and keep packing! So far I have done the Christmas decorations, the special event kitchen items, the Ravensburger jigsaw puzzles (2 tea-chests full!) and today I'm doing the vases and ornaments. Gotta think positive!!!
Rory: Just got the heads up that the usual avatars@bellybelly.com.au email address hasn't been working... so have just forwarded your avvy to Sarah direct.
The boys and I are home with colds for the second day running... thank heavens for BB and DVD players!
Good work on the optimism front - there will be a way North soon
Thanks for the avvy update - can't wait to see your newest creation!
You might have seen I had my 18 week scan - all is perfect Now I am just stressing about saving money for mat leave - I set a goal of $20,000 by September but sadly I think we will be a few k short LOL! Still, I too am optimistic LOL!
Yes it's here! I have to admit I made it MONTHS ago! LOL I miss you in your power suit already but I'm also very happy with this version of you and the boys... and your house where hopefully you'll be spending LOTS of time after number 3 arrives! You'll get there matey Funny how the money usually just kinda stretches...
