Hmmmmm what colour Marilyn dress to buy?????

Noni sending you loads and loads of labour vibes!!!

What a shame we cant all have a girly day and go and see my sisters keeper together.

MD woo hooo on the dress.

Trillian lucky A, its great when all their presents are done though isn't it. I love that their birthdays are just after the toy sales lol.

Mm no idea on the prams, I have seen the Quinny one around, maybe try M in one if you can. Not that M is big but they look rather small so you might not get lots out of it??? I have no clue though lol.

Rainy your so bad, if this baby is a girl DH is going to need a second job!!! LMAO

MArilyn dress eh? Is it too 'girly' for my girls rainy???

PAP- I think i would be be really excited about PNG. It would be a massive change and our lifestyle would certainly be different, but i think it would also be a wonderful life experience. I said to Hubby the other day, "We're not going to be lying on our death beds talking about the cushy farm job we had, but i might be telling stories of the trials and tribulations of living in a developing country". If we didn't have kids, i would have been there yesterday, no hesitation, because of the kids i have been thinking more about it and what would happen if they got sick etc. But doing a bit of reading the medical facilities seem good, and it is only about an hours flight to Australia.
Yes it is a more dangerous place to live than here, but i have lived in the Caribbean where safety was a massive issue too. I used to catch a taxi the 100m from the bar to the boat if it was dark. So it is not totally new to me.
Dunno...... what do you girls think. Are we mad??? We'd be back in 2-3 years, so before Lu started school..... They have two international school in the compound with a kinda, so she wont miss out.

Trill- i can't believe you have the pressies all sorted!! i want a ride on tractor, how cool!

Nonie- i'll be sending the eviction notice soon. I really think the acupuncture helped me.....

MM- i have the Mclaren too, sorry never seen the others. We took the maclaren to Fiji. I love it. It reclines, is so easy to maneuver. highly recommend them.

I need to go to bed! night all xxx

Oh and btw, Lu's counting wasn't a fluke (as i suspected it might be. ), she does it often now, but she misses 7 most of the time?! What's that all about?? She wont do it if a ask her, but she'll do it when she is playing on her own. At least hubby has heard her, so someone believes me.

Hmmm Ange, it's a dilemma alright! You're right about it being such a different experience over there and that it is something you will talk about for years, not to mention how great it would be for the girls to grow up in another culture for a few years. I think that because you would be earning a living etc that health services would be quite good and you would be able to pay for better care kwim? The counting thing is a normal stage for them to miss a number or two when they say it. Alister counts when watching sesame street, mainly because he's just a parrot LOL and copies, but he gets so far then it's 'nine nine nine' ROFL. And nighty night - don't let the bed bugs bite!

And yep Oz, great having his birthday present sorted, but I did take advantage of sales and I needed to get it out of the road cause of the wedding coming around super fast now and all that.

Hi girls!

wowsers! a whole week of posts to catch up on...

PP: glad to hear that N is on the mend and how amazing that he can count so much?!!!

Rainy: oohhh i wish we had the room for a cool trampoline. Leila loves them!

MD: but you must go and see public enemies. even if it is a good ol' shoot em up film and not really happy, it DOES have johnny depp in it. and that makes anyone's day. i am so not up for tear jerkers either ATM. My sisters keeper sounds a bit too intense for me!

Ange: ooh lots of exciting things! i would be a bit more cautious with PNG than other places in the pacific. we used to run programs/conferences there and it was always a bit hairy in terms of safety. and the malaria is a bit tricky. BUT, if given the chance, i would go! ha ha! so hows that for mixed messages LOL! i guess just check it out, go for a short trip and see where you would live etc and try to imagine yourself there. and you're right, Aus is not too far and you can always jump ship.

MM: i'm with the others on this one. i reckon your DH is just going through his own kind of process with dealing with the loss and is *maybe* having moments of guilt regarding what you went through. he may need some guidance ( ) from you to show him that all is AOK ITMS...
not sure about the prams babe. i always see the quinny zapp at airports though....

Noni: hope you are well and labour vibes are in action LOL!

AFM: well i am back. it was horrendous, but we got through it. Oma is very weak and very depressed. i think it is the sadness that is really doing her in. it's so hard looking at the woman that raised you lying in her bed so ill and so weak. and also very very weird.

Leila has been a bit of a horror since i got back last night. she is a bit OTT with the emotions. i think an overload LOL! but cute as always so cant complain!

H-Check out 'babys got style' for the marilyn dress

I am so excited for Noni and keep checking FB for news lol.

Cally lol at the tomboy, I have never been one for dresses.

Arte big hugs sounds like you have had a rough day today.

MM I was looking at the ruche dress for my niece, think I might get the marilyn for her.

MD I like the idea of both girls getting new wheels for Christmas.

Clare CONGRATULATIONS, tell us all the details about your new home!! Sorry about your Oma

Not much happening here, got a double stroller today and had a play at the beach. I am buggered and still have to go and pick Dh up from drinks with his workmates, lets hope it is soon.
