Oct/Nov 2008 mommies!

Mandy- so pleased you have water! The reigns cost me R42 from Baby City. I go nowhere without them.

Ally- well I will be going to visit her at home soon after Xen is here if you prefer.

I made a huge choc cake last night and I can't even bring myself to try a piece this morning. Feeling way better than before though.

Yoza- can't wait to see the pics from the photoshoot. So how is Siba taking to having a sister?

Nelly- hope Xen is holding in there for your own Gynae on Monday! I'm sure you'll feel a lot more relaxed with your own gynae.

OH NO SHAME ANGIE! Well hopefully Moomie will keep you company! I bet you wont know what to do with yourself being stuck to a bed! Keep us posted and hope you get better soon!

Nicole how is your lo doing? Simone, how are YOU doing?

Those reigns sound great. Cameron is an absolute terror during grocery shopping now, so one of us plays with him and the other shops. He WILL NOT sit in the trolley, he desperatly wants to PUSH the trolley. We always start off with him in the trolley but he whines and cries and tries to climb out.. then wants to run off pushing other peoples trolleys! Drives me CRAZY!

WE HAVE WATER! Very happy Small miracles

Zee - your chicken sounds yummy, i think i will try it..

Where is Helen.. hope she is okay!

Zamzie - how was supper?

hmmmm gotta dash chat later

Morning ladies.

Ang, really hope the thing isn't serious!

Zee, yup it's Wholegrain mustard. It's my favourite. I add it to almost everything. That Chicken sounds so yum!

Vix, awww! I'll maybe go alone then. I'm lucky that I can leave the twins with C. But I'll see how N feels first.

Simone, C says I was also a pleasant pregnant woman. He says he thought I was going to turn into a major B!tch and be impossible. The only thing I ever asked for was plums at 9 at night lol. He had to go to the Woolies shop at the Engen.

So today is Arts & Crafts day for the twins (if I still feel up to it after their nap lol) I bought these awesome crayons that draw very easily. The other ones you have to press so hard on paper. So I hope they enjoy that. And then I'm making a big pot of Potato, leek and Dijon soup. With this icy cold all of a sudden we're going to need it tonight!

Morning ladies,

Wow you were all very chatty yesterday!

Ange- Oooo I hope your 'thing' is nothing too serious! So were you in overnight? A peaceful nights sleep I suppose although these are the times where you could really do with having mum around still hgey!

Zee- Oh I'm so pleased you mentioned the pants, I was starting to get worried they still hadn't arrived and I have no internet t check the tracking. As for the fungal infection/ thrush, it happens the same in LG's as adults, it just comes from a warm moist environment which the nappies provide percetly, I know these days are cold but if and when possible try to leave her without a nappy.

WRT safety, our house is like fort knox, I will know if anyone is in our yard and even then it would've been ouchy for them to try since we have electric fencing too. W

I won't stay at home with C all the time though, I am not scared of abductors because They will really have a hard time taking C. He doesn't stay in the stroller anymore so he HAS to havew his reignseash on. I know some peoplle think it's cruel but really who can snatch him from me when he is secured to my body? If I put him in a trolley I tie the reigns to the trolley so he can't just be taken out when my eyes are turned. It all sounds a little OTT but the kids that get obducted don't have reigns on do they?

We actually shop pretty freely knowing we have taken all these precautions. I don't worry about being out alone with C We're out almost every day together.

What I don't like is the idea that a 'mommy I'm here' locator on it's own. If someone takes your child it will be out of earshot before you even realise it is gone. WPrevention is way better than cure.

Sorry if my words are a bit messed up, didn't load properly on my phone so I'm typing blind.

Ally- I'm actually not going to visit Nelria in Ospital, was just winding her up, I can't go inoto a maternity ward with C in tow.

Simone- I wouldn't take C for shots (especially measles, chick pox or MMR) whilst he even has a runny nose, just won't take. The risk as they are live virus vaccinesam

I was super busy yesterday and will be again today, sorry for neglecting you all ladies!

Hey Angie

Shame man, that is bad, I just hope its nothing serious. Keep us posted.

I'm also a bit paranoid, I actually feel like asking the day mother not to take Z out of the yard anymore. They go for walks with her... It is hard to not be paranoid!

Our supper last night was really good. I just mixed olive oil, lemon juice, garlic and korrelmosterd (is it whole grain mustard??) and then poured it over chicken thighs and drumsticks and put it in the oven. Really good.

Simone, hope the dermatologist will sort the rash out for good.

Yoza, can't wait to see the pics.

Zamzie, DH should help, man I was exhausted the first couple of weeks ... but was fine later on. Also worked until the end.

Vix, thank you so much, I got the pants and they are lovely and a perfect fit.

Do you guys know Tonsicare by Sister Lillian?I'm considering getting it for Z to prevent further tonsilitis infections ...

Z had a rash (down under) this weekend so I got her Dactarin, sure it was a fungal infection. Don't know where they get fungi!?

HOpe you'll have a good day... I feel totally drained, not feeling up to anything! Hope I feel better later.

Morning ladies. You won't believe where I find myself this morning..... In HOSPITAL

My doctor is a bit concerned about this thing on my shoulder blade so I was admitted last night and I have been on some kind of drip so see if that will help with th swelling.

I am fine BESIDES missing Cole and DH like crazy.

Will keep u guys posted as soon as I know something.
