Oct/Nov 2008 mommies!

HI girls.

Just wanted to say that the interview went amazing. Although it was more just a casual lunch than an interview. We just chatted and he is such and awesome guy.

Mandy, he LOVED tthe blondies so THANK YOU for the idea!

okay so went shopping.

The lady at the orphanage said that unfortuntely the kids arnt use to much so the girls aged 7 & 9 would play with dolls etc. so for the 7 year old i got a doll wearing a ball gown and it came with a doll brush and then a tiny little "fashion sista" which comes with a little cellphone etc. The other girl i also got a doll and then "make your own bracelets".

The 2 boys DH choose for and he got cars and army men and accessories etc.

lol Simone I thought why not give it a try ... paed even told me to give Shrey that but obviously not fat free Hmmm now you tempting me to make some chicken tikka breasts with that.

Gosh it has been a busy day and planning on keeping the tempo up like that after lunch. Tons to finish before beginning of December.

Nicole I am going to have a look at that site now.

Lisha why not get the fat free vanilla toghurt at woolies? NO artificial sweeteners...and it tastes REALLY good!

Fat-free bulgarian??? you're crazy woman!!lol. That is nice to use in cooking though...mix the yoghurt with some masala and chopped coriander and marinade chicken in that. Very nice. And a squeeze of lemon juice and some garlic and ginger.

Angie hope CJ gets better soon...sorry about the rough night:-(

Lisha that is true Re: the baby dolls, i will take a long around. We have this place called Free Range kids, and man oh man there toys are soooo nice and sooooo cheap. take a look at their website.

Angie sorry about rough night.

Simone we also only mixed formula with warm or boiling hot water You learn something new everyday

Simone like I told you last week I may be thin but have a flabby tummy and that is sure sign of being unhealthy. So that is my target area and once that is toned down I'll be fine. That being said I am not counting calories just making better eating choices ... damn if I am eating fat-free bulgarian yogurt with fruit i must be serious about getting healthy lmao. The yougurt combined with the not completely sweet strawberries wasn't great on the tastebuds

Nicole the gift ideas sounds nice but remember 8 year olds these days are way more advanced than we'd like to admit - they may have outgrown baby dolls already??? My niece is only 5 but more into Barbie than her old baby dolls.
For the boys I think cars etc would be perfectly fine.

Morning ladies, had terrible night with Cj. He has runny nose and was very restless during the night, luckily no fever - I checked his ears can't see anything wrong. The nanny says he is fine today, nose still running, Dh will be there early today to check on him. Thinking is just allergies, or sinus.

Ange - cole is absolutely adorable! Love the curls, he has grown up so quickly!

Simone - WOW ON 8KG mark! SO PROUD OF YOU!

Guys, I can't chat much - I am busy with work, completing inventaries for our move, looking for house etc etc!

Will try and catch up later!
