I have done full chickens, lamb shanks, silverside (have an awesome recipe for silverside) chicken curry, spag bol, taco mince, beef stew they all turned out awesome the only pro ive had is that the meat (mainly chicken and lamb shanks) have been hard to get out cos they fell apart when i tried to lift them out.
Summer is having really bad tantys at the moment she screams and carries on when she doesn't get her way and she isn't eating very well either Chris obviously is feeding her hot chips and whatever takeaway he is feeding the girls and she keeps saying "chip" im going to have to talk to him about it. It is so hard when you split with their Dad you are caught in such a horrible place of feeling like you need to keep up with the "fun" parent but the eating thing is hard we are going to have to come to some sort of arrangement i think
Summer is so not ready for TT so I haven't really been trying too much I have been through it a few times now and Tahnie was fully done just after she was 2. And from being in the brace etc for the last few months no point making extra work, ive started making her aware of it and nappy off time is good for that but I'm not in a rush being my last baby i want to do it when she is ready. It's going to be hard when we do esp if the two homes aren't in sync ah this separation thing sux sometimes.
Ah skye just people crapping on me as usual, i let someone in and they think its ok to tell me that i spoil my kids (which i don't!! I can't afford to and even if i did wtf is it to them!!!) so bye bye to them. No wonder i keep to myself and don't get too close to people
Codie started a trial for a new treatment for CF patients she might get the placebo and it's a major commitment but if it is successful it could help prevent kids and adults from getting lung damage and therefore not needing lung transplants..... She has to go on a nebuliser 3 times a day for a year hmmmmm just what i need more work but its all for a good cause.
Anyhoo hope all the little bubbas are good and healthy
Tonight we had our first poo in the bath incident. Jazz stood up with a concerned look on her face. I told her to sit down so she sat down carefully and then I noticed her surprise. Got her out of the bath straight away. I'm glad that we managed to go 19.5 months without any poo incidents!
Its ok Trina I spoil mine too...its called love? It involves cuddles & niceness...some people just don't understand it! Lol!
I'm baby free. & nervouse as all hell! Kids haven't seen Anth for near 6 weeks, so I'm driving a lonely 8 hours out there to pick him up. Gee, fun, lol.
Anyway, mum decided she'd have them all. Much as I would've happily taken boof with me. So I go out there tonight to settle them down & make sure Jesse is ok. He gets ready for boo, we have a little chat, again, about mummy going to get daddy. We decide he's going to stay here & look after poppy's motor bikes & fix them, then I'm kinda ok to go.
He settles down with me, then ditches me!! By himself he chooses to go lay in mum & dad's bed & just dozes off with mum!!! No boo, no winging, nothing!
I'm still in shock! Not sure if his amber teething necklace had anything to do with it, but it turned up today & I put it on him not long before.
Lonely, but happy (for now!)
Spose I best get my music sorted for tomorrow.
Night

I got an interview for a continuing position I applied for at the Uni a few weeks ago. Interview is on Tuesday.
I've also applied for a position 2 levels higher than the one I'm currently in. It's another fixed-term one until August 2012.
And, it looks like at the very least my contract in my current position will be extended for another 12 months. The boss is just sorting that out, but he's happy for me to apply for any positions I want and is still fully supportive and congratulated me on getting short listed for the continuing one.
bron - thanks! we had a fantastic time.. it was so nice celebrating a special holiday w family. it was a really really good holiday. poopy got so spoilt, hehe. he loved all the cuddles and attention he got. it felt like being back home for diwali.
how are you going?
crappy weather in sydney.. gosh it feels like winter again.. yuk./..
The weather's crap here too. We're on out 3rd thunderstorm since last night. Better turn this off again soon.
I have no car again. Anth came home for a week, but we couldn't afford for me to drive him all the way out there again, so he took the car. Wouldn't mind if it wasn't raining. Sposed to send some stuff for mum at the PO, but its too far with out the rain. There's no way I'm going in the rain.
Can't even get as far as my mates place for pilates coz its heavy rain. She's only about 10 houses down from me.
Jesse did 3 potty wee's yesterday So proud! He started on the floor, realised what he was doing & ran for the potty to finish, lol.
Weaning is going ok. He's sleeping through now, so thats good. I'm still allowing the bed time feed. Probably won't stop that one til he's ready. He hasn't been going to sleep on it though. Usually gets a second wind after it & eventually goes to sleep himself. Last night I left him in my bed playing with his truck & 10 minutes later he was out.
Anth had the lawn mower going the other day & Jesse was screaming coz he wanted to be out there with it! I can't believe how much he loves those sort of noises!
We got a new lounge & outdoor setting the other day! I've been wanting both for years & I finally got them! So happy!! Lounge is a 4 seater with chaise, all up about a 6 or 7 seater corner type & was only $700. Loving it!
Oh, the boy has a motor bike obsession, lol. I bought him a toy dirt bike & he didn't let go of it for 2 weeks. The only reason he hasn't got it now is coz we left it at mum & dad's. He'll run to the window if he hears one, stare at the TV if there's one on there & point them out in the car when we're driving. Loves them!
Oh well, best get him dressed. He's streaking & its freezing!
