wow christmas tree kell, cool, we (or shal i say I) always put ours up on the 1st december, so in a week or so i guess.
ok because i lost my last post i cant remember what has been happening. or what i have already said, but i'll give it a shot. hehe at jesse and keira, i think keira is gunna have such a temper she is already in control, knows what she wants and she wants it NOW. Jesse, Isaac, Callum, sebi Caleb and Liam will be her slaves she will bash them if they give her any lip.
Ikes eye test went ok, someone asked where we went! our clinic nurse gave us a referal for a childrens specialist at a hospital a normal eye specialist cant test kids so young, (but it was free). this guy was great. Isaacs eyes are 98% straight and should fix themselves as he grows, but they said they think he is short sighted, but we cant do anything for that till he is around 3.5years or older as he needs to be able to communicate better. unfortunatly my research shows it cant be fixed you just were glasses or have laser treatment so poor little bugger hope it will turn out to be ok, tho he would be cute in glasses.
thanks missy i loved you guys visiting and isaac had the best time with callum and jesse. when our play room is finished it will be so much better and the kids will have a great time in there.
Zee- I would live in it for a while to get colateral, than buy another house in sydney. that way you get the first home owners grant and have no trouble with breaking a contract.
OH i know you guys were talking about excema this week, as i have said i get it pritty bad too. and today i discovered that bepanthen cream really works great, i was on my way to swimming lessons and my hands were so itch they were driving me nutts, they had started to blead it was so bad. the only thing i had was the bepanthen cream so i used it just to relieve it a bit and OMG it worked great it took the itch away and really helped i have put it on several times today and just in these few hours i recon its 70% better than it was this morning, im going to keep using it and see what happens. funny how you find these things out by accident. i might tell my dad he has extreme excema his hands are raw, and his excema is very painful, his doctor recons he is the worst case he has seen and nothing has ever worked for him, poor guy is alergic to most prescribed creams too.
Tan- wow you poor thing, we lost isaac at lollypops ages ago, it makes your heart stop, did you go into rescue mode? i did i just knew what i had to do to find him. (hehe little bugger wanted to crash another little boys birthday party)
Pixie- we have a kids saver for each of our boys, its a commonwealth account it has no fees or anything and as long as you put money in it each month it has a good interest rate. we give them $5 a month each and my mum has a trust account ( at the commonwealth) for each of them that she puts $15 in each account each month they get hers when they are 25 or married. ours they can spend whenever they like as long as they save 10% of their pocket money etc they can do as they please with the rest.
and I know my babies are growing so fast.
well i have just gotten the worst headache right behind my eyes so i might just go lie on the lounge or something.
mel- hervey bay is awsome. one of my oldest and dearest mates lives in urangan. its beautiful, i'm sure you will love it.
My friend works at the ABC child care centre there, i think its a good centre she speaks highly of the workers there. incase your interested.
actually she is getting married in early 2010 so i will be flying up for that and staying at kingfisher. we have decided to leave the kids at home with mum and have a 2nd honeymoon (how exciting) anyway its such a nice place to live. if DH lost his job for some reason we would move there ourselves.
anyway i'm off to bed. my head is still throbbing.........
Missy: Love your new ticker!! I took some Christmas photos of Ash tonight with my SIL but nothing I really like yet, plus I want to try and get Jayden in some.
Mel: Don't talk to me about grocery shopping! Jayden whinged nearly the whole time we were doing ours today!
Pix: Aww poor Beth, hope she is better tomorrow. Jayden & Ashlea have an account with Westpac, but only cause thats who we are with. Lucky Beth!!
Kell: Hope the kids are quieter for you tomorrow! Its bad in the bathroom too cause it echos...well my bathroom does so I hate noise in there haha
Kristy: Thats good about Ike's eye, kids look so cute with glasses...I hope it doesn't come to that though. Yeah it was a kinda rescue mode, as soon as I heard BIL I ran out....dont even know what SIL and I were talking about now. Lollypops must be big! How cute Ike was crashing a party! I know how that feels though when they dissapear....Jayden did it in Big W just before we went to Melb. Hope your head gets better.
We had a good night taking photos...not too many turned out good but takes practise I guess. I was going to ask them if I could borrow the Wii overnight as I didn't get much of a turn seen as I was looking after kids, preparing food, taking photos etc but as they left after midnight I didn't worry about it, but after they had left and Chris and I were cleaning up I saw the box in the lounge room so YAY I have a Wii for the night.....I should be going to bed but I'm having a go of Wii fit soon hehehe
Anyway I uploaded some photo's.... Ashlea's Feet Christmas Ashlea Beautiful Ashlea
Kell - oh I feel for you sweet, I know that Isabel can have a really loud scream let alone having two kids do it at the same time. I hope your night got better. Did you put up the Christmas tree?? I'm going to put ours up on 1st December just need to get it from my parents house and some new decorations.
Tannis - Oh I couldn't stay awake for that long I need my beauty sleep these days. Love the photos of Ashlea she is just so beautiful.
Pixie - I hope little Beth feels better soon hun, I know what it's like to have a sick baby. Isabel has a cold at the moment and is really struggling to sleep at night with her blocked nose poor darling.
Kristy - I hope your headache has gone.
A BIG to everyone I've missed. I hope you all have a good Sunday. I'm going to pick up my Hubby this afternoon who has been on another business trip to China YAY!!
Been up to the doc this morning to get a new pill. So hopefully it will help. I told her about my anxiety (not sure if youve seen my other thread or not). She said the pill can cause stress and stuff like that so to see how i go on this pill, if not to go back and see her as you can develope a Post Natal Anxiety. Never knew that. So yeh will keep an eye on it.
lol yeh.. Keira settled down once Jesse went to bed.. every sound he made a sound she screamed.. like dont push my buttons brother! I did see the humour in it though.. man you shouldve heard her go lmao. DH and i were laughing so hard.. lol poor baby.
Yep! Tree is up!!! Jesse has been surprisingly good with it. Saw it this morning and got excited but thats it.. hasnt attempted to pull anything off. Have to playpen around it atm still though.
Tannis.. oh what a little angel!
Ok i have to run. Gotta quickly take some pics of the Phil & Ted so i can stick it on ebay tonight, before we go out.
tan - I think I meant the ones with older kids as well get matched up with ones with older kids.. or something.. lol... who knows what I meant.
Pics are GORGEOUS btw..
Hmm.. aricyn is chucking a fit bout something.. dunno what.. anyhoo...
Mez - yay for hubby being home!!!!! I can't imagine me dealing with both kids by myself..
Kristy - twas me that was asking bout the eye - cos I gotta get DS's seen to - even though DH doesn't think there is a problem with it.
Had friends stayin last night - had a few glasses of wine (noice) and played ten pin bowling on the wii.. was sooo funny... my friend came first, then me, then her partner, and then craig bringing up the rear.. it was soooo funny (but that COULD have been the alcohol.. lol)
Not much going on today. Haven't heard from IL's at all, even though they know that DS has pneumonia - DH called them on Wed to tell them - and they haven't called or anything to see how he is... DH is OVER it...
Gotta find DH a job in Hervey Bay - thats the only way he will get there!!!! Grrr... job schmob I say
Mez: No idea why I am staying up late now, maybe I'm not busy enough during the day haha
Kell: That's great you can go to the Dr's on a Sunday! Hope the new pill works for you. Take some pics of the tree....its seems too early for xmas things but its not far away at all!
Mel: I'm happy to do KK for the older kids too but so far you and me are the only ones with older kids who have said they will be in it....anyone else want to participate? Sounds like you had fun last night! Its your IL's loss that they are missing out on A & M thats terrible that they haven't seen how A is....How is he BTW? Quick find DH a job so you can move!!
I have had the laziest day today! I was up until 2.30am on the Wii Fit, then I was on it again this morning until SIL came around to pick it up . I went back to sleep with Ashlea at about 12.30pm, woke up briefly at 1.30pm then up again at 3pm....so now I am trying to do all the washing and cleaning up oh I gotta figure out something for dinner too!! Don't think Chris was too happy I slept half the day but who cares I NEVER get to so I think I deserve it! Both kids were asleep too so its not like he had to do anything....Anyway break over better get back to it
I'm so glad our guests had left. I'm still in shock that MIL + partner treated our place as if it's a holiday inn where all cleaning and everything is done for them while they just lay around. They really got on my nerves extra this visit. OMG. It's like when they want to go somewhere it's 'now now now, right now' but don't give me time to get the kidlets stuff ready and they're already out the door... then on the other hand when they plan to do something later in the day and I get all ready to go they change their minds and just want to lay around and sleep.. well why say you want to do it to start with if you didn't really want to!
When we've stayed with them before it was never like this, so I don't know what's different now.
I've mentioned this before I think from their last visit, but they did it again and so much more. They're pushing on DS1 what they want him to call MIL's partner. We don't think it's right he be called grandpa, so we refer to him as his name as we do with any other partners that are married or with the grandparents. At first they didn't correct DS1when he'd call MIL's partner by his name, but then they started correcting him every single time, then DS1 would say "sorry, Grandpa". I just don't agree with that and I seriously don't know how to say to them to stop it or if they'd even listen if we did say something. DP doesn't like it either. Grr.
One last thing.. They are religious. We aren't. They try to push it onto us when they know I'm not religious, nor did I come from a religious family. I grew up knowing about different things and was able to choose what I wish to believe or not. This is how we're raising our boys too. They were trying to push it onto DS1. I feel like our wishes are just stupid and not respected... again I don't know how I'd say anything to them and DP won't pipe up, which I think he should since after all it is his mother.
The funny thing is MIL is such a different person when her partner isn't around. I really don't get that either.
/end rant. :P
Sorry it's all about me, me, me. I just had to get it off my chest. I'll catch up tomorrow.
It's soooooo cold and rainy here. I'm hating it and I know I'll be hating the heat soon enough too so I just can't win. lol.
Edit: OH YAY!! My ticker picture finally changed.
xx
