July 2009 Moms

OMW Pat! I am glad Adam is ok! How scary.

Regarding the whole story - I have put it from beginning to end but could not do it in 1 long post so they are in 3 or 4 posts. Its all on page 669 I think

OMW Pat!!! That is so horrible!!! Sounds like this weekend was rough for alot of people. I'm SO SO SO glad Adam is ok..you must have been so shaken up afterwards?? Does it really only take 40seconds for children to drown? I've always thought that as long as you give mouth to mouth they will be fine?

Monique dis goed dat hul Stian gaan toets vir allergiee. Hul was veronderstel om Migs se bloed ook te trek die laast keer wat sy vir grommets gegaan het maar die ENT het VERGEET!!!!

Lonie het nou gesien in jul post jul begin 11 April trek..enjoy!!

Nayeela.. I felt so sorry for you when I read on FB your people didnt pitch.. Sorry about the rough time.. I missed the beginning part so wasnt sure who G was and the issue..

Marilu - Time will tell. I know he got the scare of his life though! I am hoping he has learnt something.

Lizel.. That is such fantastic news! I read where you said you were scared to tell us something so you were about to get a FB message!! Lol.. Congrats.. Are you very early? I hate it when they said to me you pregnant but its VERY early!! I mean you either pregnant or you not!! I wish you a happy and healthy pregnancy!! I am so so sorry about what happened to your folks.. Am so relieved that all was fine and that your Dad was there.. How did they get in? I must apologise if you already said, I just skimmed through all the posts..

I see the gynae on Wednesday again..

Marilu.. That weekend sounded amazing.. It sounds like everyone went to a lot of effort. And congrats on 80!! Sorry about your sinuses though..

Lonie.. I already get nervous when Adam asks me to draw stuff for him as I am useless. Love the theme.. Think we might go with a Noddy theme.. He LOVES Noddy!!

We co- sleep. He used to be in his own room but with all the bad nights and you know they bad getting up 8-10 times a night with him being sick and the teeth he has been in our bed.. With my back for the last month, I cant get up and down into the cot.. We need to get him a big bed but want to move it into the study once which will be Adams room.. Dont want to get him settled in his room in a big room only to chuck him out again when baby comes..

Jana.. Did you get my sms yesterday? I was so shaken that I was desperate to talk to someone as there was NOBODY around and Avron was away..

Yesterday Adam and I were playing outside. The gardener was filling the pool and Adam got hold of the hose pipe.. WELL, we both landed up soaked to the bone as I wet him and he got me back so we had loads of fun.. My aunt and uncle have an enbankment from the house down to the pool.. Next thing he runs up there and starts running down it.. he does this all the time.. He loves it.. Only problem was this time the grass was wet and so was he.. He started running and caught a speed wobble and couldnt stop. When his wet feet touched the pool tiles he slid and carried on sliding straight into the pool.. Well, the next 30 seconds felt like an eternity. I dived in clothes and all of course and grabbed him.. My heart stopped for a few seconds and all I could think was I have 40 seconds before he drowns.. I was so so lucky that he didnt hit his head on the side as he went under backwards.. I was very proud of him cos he started trying to paddle and turned around towards the wall like he is taught at swimming so the lessons are working.. He also got a fright but I got to him so quickly.. I loved him and told him he is ok and that he just got a fright and that now he knows why he mustnt run near the pool so all in all it was a good thing.. I was alone on the plot and the shock hit later.. Last night I kept seeing his face disapearing under the water..

I know Monique. It seems I cannot hide it. I will delete it in a moment. I tried hiding it but it just wouldnt get hidden Lol! Maybe thats how it should be: Out in the open!
