Oct/Nov 2008 mommies!

Simone, they are soooo endearing when they know they are pushing their luck but they smile with a grin while asking you to do something!! toooo precious!

Well i took cameron to the movies today with another mom and 2.5yr old and they were pretty good! someone advised us to stay away from the 3D ones as they dont keep the glasses on for long and then they cant see the movie to they get bored and its quite challenging to find a non 3d kiddies movie these days, we wanted to watch WINNIE but to my horror its already off the cinema circuit, so we went to fourways mall and watched hop which was a cartoon bunny that was supposed to take his place as the easter bunny when all he wanted was to be rockstar drummer, and it was mixed with humans ( not cartoons - real like ) with a down and out young adult not being able to find a job so he decides HE wants to be the easter bunny! quite funny.. Cam sat still for LOTS of the feature, then he started to stand up to dance with the songs, then 10 minutes before he and his friend got restless and ran outside the cinema, so we followed.. not too bumbed that I didnt see the end!! but the kids had a ball! Cameron started weeing in the home toilet on friday night and today, he managed to wee in a public loo, so he is doing well!

anyhoo - enough me me me - hope you are all having good week ends now

Mandy I have to give M props for being able to say somethibg that is tough to hear...putting Cam's needs first:) maybe we should have a group challenge to try and take time outs when we lose our tempers!

Addison also mimics me...lifts her finger and shouts. Dropped an astro the other day and went: fluck it! She is totally seeing that from me:( so really need to change my habits. My mom and I will argue like crazy people and then I'll notice Addison mimicking us...and then its too late to stop! I have a lot to work on!

This morning Addison throws herself on couch and says: I want a blanket mummy. I get it and come back. She says: oh and I want a pillow. *sweet smile* I shake my head and go get her pillow. I say: anything else mam? She smiles again and says: porridge. Um...oats!

Not even the instant porridge that we have! Eish! I had to laugh!

yip, my hubby and i had THE TALK last night! He was horrified at what he saw and i knew he would be. I needed him to intervene, but he said I am teachiing cameron to shout and loose his temper as thats what i do, i hate it when he is right. It was hard to hear, but its a little true.. but yip, i am human, so will try better! He needs to take cameron out and bond with him a bit more too and will.. so all good!

Nope simone, not one puke, but then this is the same as my first pregnancy, I dreamt it is a boy last night,think my psyche is getting me ready for another monster although they are all different I am sure! Sorry you are getting sick alot again Simone!!! SHAME hon! and WHAT a blessing G is!!

Gotta go, chat later!

Mandy we're heading for 10w!!!! Yay!! 20 odd week countdown starts!! Okay maybe I should aim smaller...almost out of first trimester!!!!!!!!

Mandy I'm so sorry but I had a good giggle at your post! I was just picturing it!! Lol. I'm glad its all over now and you have both forgiven each other:) goodness how will we cope with 2???

I'm over the flu so that's great! But got sick now again! G says it must be a boy cause totally different to being preggies with Addison. Shame the poor man is mopping the bathroom and cleaning the toilet as I type:(

Zee til how long were u sick? Man this is horrible!!! Thank goodness the fatigue is gone now...though I do need my bed a bit earlier at night.

Did the CT ladies meet???

I've been watching series all day! Did Addison's hair and nails...while my hair and nails look like crap!!lol

Oh Zee it makes me feel a bit better that it seems a few of us are not natural 'earth moms' and nothing phases them....everythibg is peace and love! Lol. Today I'm trying not to snap and hit...I got thrown on my nose with a shoe box today. Glory I wanted to bliksem her but spoke to her instead and she apologised. Not saying I'll always control myself, but definately less tears and tantrums today.

How is pregnancy going? Any name ideas?

Zee and Mandy thanks for the words. Mandy as u say there are benefits to them being here...I don't have to cook, Cynthia leaves early most days cause my mom is here...we enjoy each other's company for the most part...I even prefer them here...just need a bigger house and some financial contribution. I can't also draw blood from a stone so at this point talking may not solve anything. I don't want my mom to feel like I am counting what I do...we as parents know how much we do and will do for our kids. It'd be hurtful for them to turn their backs on us one day. Its a difficult situation. I'm being more cautious with finances now and doing what I can for now.

Mandy so u haven't had 1 puke session since being preggies? I kept nothing down again yesterday. We ate at steers for supper...drove home and G had to SPEED and that was the meal gone:( on the plus side my sister said I seem to have lost weight! Lol

Addison is soooo difficult with dressing! I've said it before but I'm at a point where I may as well give away her 20 pairs of tights, jeans and pants. Its too much of a battle! She'll cry for half an hour straight if we put pants on! And its so darn cold:(

Julz sorry you are having such a rough time with your sinuses!! man, wish you could find the solution!

Zee and simone you are also feeling sick, and chrisda for that matter, how are you all feeling

Yoza, Sibu is developing so nicely

Gals, im also up for the worst mom of the world, i wanted to sleep today and he didnt , so he followed me around and basically tortured me for a full hour and after that, I LOST THE PLOT, held my bedroom door closed and let him scream til my hubby came upstairs and lost it too and left the house to find peace and then i screamed and screamed at him for like 2 solid minutes like a piece of trash!! til he was holwing and... then he still wouldnt leave me alone!! so i got up I really acted like a 2 yr old but in the moment, it was the END OF THE WORLD anyhoo, luckily, he has forgiven me, and me him

Yoza enjoy your and hubbys date tonight, we also have one, just in time..

Gals how was the CPT meet?????

Love ya!
