Oct/Nov 2008 mommies!

Morning ladies,

Boy am I pleased you guys didn't chat too much this weekend!

The game lodge was wicked! We stayed in a tented camp, ate drank and had 2 loooong game drives with our ranger. The night drive we came accross the lions in the road walking towards us so we had to pull over and let them pass, they were so close we could feel the air move as the brushed past our truck. Elwyn was sitting in the side (open game veichle) and I would say they were about a foot away (30cm) then in the morning we found the exact same pride just having taken down a wildebeast and they were feasting, we managed to drive in as close as 3m from the male before we decided it was close enough! What an experience! The elephants were also very close but they have a small young herdso they were pretty relaxed. I thought the 1 was going to touch my neck with his trunk! We woke up on sunday morning to find a giraffe right outside our tent. When we arrived we went to chill in the tent before the 1st drive and DH got all horny for a quicky (of course I didn't say no) and I said to Elwyn, "something is making funny noises outside" I went to the bathroom and there was a big male baboon performing outside the window, I told Elwyn we made the wildlife horny LOL

Unfortunately as we left I must have stood on something covered in mites/ lice. As we drove back to mums I had a really itchy sore knee and I was scratching and scratching, eventually I lifted my trouser to see what looked like hundreds of teeny tiny blood splats all over my knee. At closer inspection they were little mites with their heads burried into my skin. I didn't want to pull them out all over the car incase they find there way to DH or C later so I waited until we got to mums 15min later. I rushed to the bathroom to strip by which time they had made their way to my boob, bum, side, even found a few in my pubic hair. All up my left side, it looked like I had murdered someone with a tooth brush that splattered. I jumped in the shower but had to litterally scratch each mite off with my nail. Elwyn had the wonderful job of checking my bum hole, and I'm not joking they'd found their way there too. Eventually I got them all off and washed them down the drain. It felt like hundreds of little pin pricks whilst they were on me. Thanks fully I have had tick bite fever so if they were baby ticks I'll be fine but will just watch myself for a while and metion it to my gynae on Monday.

One lady on my drive was hideously annoying, talking all the time, she knew everything and anything. At luch I said to Elwyn don't tell her I'm pregnant, I have a feeling she's one of those that will be "you can't do this and you can't do that" and I wanted to have a light beer for our night drive stop off. Just as well, she declared on our drive that she is a Gynae in the Northern subburbs of JHB. Well I was so disgusted with further conversations on how "irritating" it is when a woman wants to "push" at 3am and that's why she rather does inductions during the day! I told her C was a Ceaser baby she declared I was a gynaes best friend and such a "good girl" it's really terrible! I'm so pleased she isn't my gynae! My gynae never once consdidered induction because my body wasn't ready. It made me very thankful for a pro natura gyunae even though I will have a C-sec because I know he doesn't do these things because it's "easier" and more "convenient" Sadly I can't remember this womans last name to warn people about her but thankfully she's retiring from pregnancies after this year. She is an Older lady with ginger hair. Her first name is Pat so if you think you know who she is then watch out. And she was the biggest piss cat I've ever come accross! 6am and she refuses to let the game drive start unless they have booze on board.

If I don't take my B6 3 times a day I start to feel so sick but if I remember I feel 100%. I am starting to show already! Until this weekend I didn't even look bloated but suddenly my belly has popped high and low. Veryy odd! I don't feel at all bloated. Unfortunately I think I might get quite big this time around!

Morning gals

We had a good week end and cam is slowly on the mend a think, still coughing a little but this morning was the first morning that i havent had to wipe a very snotty nose in 2 weeks ! Poor little thing!

Girls, be on the watch out with your kids, there is a nigeria male driver of a silver toyota spotted in both CPT and JHB PNW 886 GP who has tried to kidnap two young girls now, one in Mayville CPT and one in Protoria North. The topic has been on Morning live and 5fm and its a reality. They are saying that The sex and drug trade is on the increase to cater for the demands of the world cup so be even more vigilent with your children, especially in shopping centres for the next 3 months - sorry to give anyone a scare but I really do believe that awareness makes one extra careful!

okay.. back to work, have a good week

Hi ladies

Hope you all enjoyed the weekend! I’ve had a busy time, Z has been really sick with tonsillitis and ear infection (again). I stayed at home with her on Friday since I really struggled to keep her fever down. Luckily she is much better now and I took her to a tea garden with a play park yesterday. There were ducks and rabbits and she loved it. Alas, she is very ma-vas again so I had to play with her the entire time. She is extremely clingy and wants nothing to do with poor DH. He is not handling the rejection very well ...
In any hoo, my child is really aggressive and I’m concerned about it. She hits us all the time and I’m also trying the ‘naughty corner’ / ‘think about your sins’ corner but to no avail. I honestly don’t know what to do with her anymore. If we were aggressive people, I could say she saw it at home but we are the friendly tree hugging type for crying out loud!
I also had one hell of an assignment which is finally completed. It was interesting at least – about plays in the 80’s and 90’s and how the politics of the time influenced it. And then I’m writing a paper on Wednesday and ja, I haven’t opened a book. Okay, but enough about me! Hope all your babas are doing well.
Pfairy, sorry about your friend but at least you tried and got a clean conscious about it ... Hopefully the atmosphere changes in the office. Life is way too short for feuds. Good luck with the weight loss, I’m sure you are going to reach your target in time. I’m so jealous about Greece. I also need to lose a couple of kilos. I’ve really picked up again and DH made a comment about it the other night. I was not impressed! He quickly said it was a joke (he fears my wrath) but I know he’s got a point ...
Ally, glad you liked the restaurant and the food. Can’t wait to read the review.
Simone, jeez, two years! Time flies by! I give z the Viral guard and then I quickly give her something else to sip on afterwards. I try to also avert her attention when I pop the syringe in!
Mandy, glad it was a good class. Cam sounds so cute ...
Julz, your shopping trip sounds nice. Sounds as if Dylan is as crazy about Teletubbies as Simone. 
About the telly, I hardly watch TV but I try to at least watch Grey’s anatomy and Ugly Betty and I like the Style Channel and the documentaries on Discovery. The TV is mostly on Koowee and Cbeebies. Z likes Teletubbies and Lappies Leeu.
Nelria, glad you had a good time at Jingle & Jangle, would love to see it.
Hope you all have a lovely Monday and a good week.

Lol Julz! Which one do u have? I swear the creators have a magic recipe that just is a hit with kids...not sure what...the colours....the way they speak.... I like the repetition alot tho.

Quiet here today!

Mandy it's not working. x

Simone Dylan is glued to tellytubbies. Oh dear.

testing my new tikker?
