Oct/Nov 2008 mommies!

morning morning.

Happy birthday to big boy Bryce. Can't believe our babies are 2 now!!!! WOW.
a Belated happy birthday to Zian, Cathy, Ziani and Cole.

wow, what a hectic week. firstly hubby was really sick. had an overseas flu. Dr says it's family of the swine flue. but he is better now. And then it was this tanzania story. so, 3 other companies also contact him regarding jobs. don't know if there is suddenly a big market for geologists. but the more the better.

then I am busy with mia's party decorations. want to do it really cheaply - doing everything myself.

and then.... my grandpa died on Friday. my heart is still so sore. I just think of his smile all the time.

Zee, hope Ziani is feeling better. Just keep an eye on her. The dr said you can sometimes only see the signs about 48 hours later.

Vix, shame man. just wear your pajamas 24 hours a day... they are the most comfy clothing. glad your mom will be entertaining C today. enjoy the rest.

Simone. Mia also love her Tutu time skirts. I bought a few at mr price for R15 each. and she just loved it. she was actually wearing one yesterday.

and handbags. she just loves a handbag. when she see one, she want it. she has more than me.

Morning Gals, Happy birthday to Bryce Jess - we also have a birthday on one week end to SPOIL our lo on his own the whole day and then the party the following week end! Enjoy your day with him!!

Vix - you really do sound in aweful pain... Im glad you are taking it easy. Im sure there are some sort of braces that can ease the pain.. im sure you have done your research , but i just wander... is there nothing else that can be done? - maybe some type of water therapy - have you spoken to Nertififi? perhaps she can teach you some pain relief techniques? Anyhow, I really do hope it doesnt last the rest of your pregnancy or that you find a way to relieve the horrible pain !

Ally - you looked great in that photo!

Zee - enjoy your day with ML - yes def get out of the house and go to ML - then you can come home to a clean house

Simone - Addison sounds very cute wanting to sleep with her tutu
Did your friend come right with a venue for the jhb party? There is another one called fantasy park?

shame - cam woke up wriggling with pain and letting out farts - he must have had a sore tummy so we gave him buscopan and water and he luckily went back to sleep til morning.

Helen - how are your sinuses? settling down yet?

Julz - glad to hear you are nice and busy with your new job, are you enjoying it?

cant decide what to do today - Im too scared to look out the door as Marc has decided that since cameron loves water so much, he can help his daddy wash his car! its windy so it must be quite chilly when you get wet and I am sure they will both be soaked! aah well at least its not me..

Im going upstairs to get ready for the day.. have a good day all

Just lost a long post Grrr....

Happy bday, Bryce, hope it is a terrific day for you and Mommy and Daddy and just think, next year there will be another little boy at your party Congrats, Jessica!

Vix, shame, hope the pain will subside and that you will have a better day today, enjoy your mom's visit. Ja, you are right, I was a bit paranoid, she seems okay today, aside of the runny nose and the phlegm on the chest. She had a vomit episode earlier but I think it was due to the phlegm...

Simone, cute about the tutu! I bought the cutest rock chick outfit for Z's bday at Mr Price last week but the last time I bought her tops it was a bit small (the 2-3 y) So this time I bought the 3-4 and it is WAY too big for her. I guess it will only fit next year!

Before I forget, a big congrats, Nelria that you actually went and wrote the exam! Hope you aced it and that you are all doing much better today

HOpe you all have a good Sunday, Z and I are home alone and I'm contemplating what to make for breakfast ... Maybe I should call my MIL and tell her that we are coming for breakfast!!

morning mommies,

HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRYCE! 2 already and soon to be a big brother! wow how far you have come in 2 small years! Well done Jess on a fab job raising such a gorgeous boy!

Jessica- on a down note I won't be able to attend Bryces birthday party on Saturday. I was in too much pain yesterday by 11am already and i had done nothing and gone nowhere. I honestly would be no fun but more so i can't put my body through that agony, at home i can lay horizontal with heat packs.

Same story for everyone else who sent me invites, i just won't be able to make the dates sorry, I am really sounding like boring fart but honestly i can cry at the thought of my discomfort.

Zee- what a fab cake! Love it! Sorry about Ziani's accident. I'm sure she doesn't have concussion, just really MaVas after her ordeal, I'm sure it's flippin scary being hit by a swing but that said I'm sure we all also suffered the same fate of a moving swing, just don't remember it. Poor birthday girl! She's looking so grown up these days! She's got mommy's big eyes!

I am so sore again I know i sound like a broken record but i said to Elwyn yesterday, it's really way worse than it was with C and it's all day and night long. The best way i can describe it is like that burning pain you get in a muscle when it spasms, it's like that all across the top of my tummy but at the same time it feels like muscle ripping from the bone, man it is so sore by 7-8pm I actually have tears in my eyes and every time C asks for 'uppa mama' i just want to cry, the thought of bending over to pick him up is horrible. I really hope it doesn't stay like this for the next 7/8 weeks or my spirit will also be broken by the time the twins come.

o.k whinge over for today i promise.

Seeing my mother again today which will be nice because C wants nothing to do with me when she's around so i get a break at least.

Nelria- LMAO i love the way you try to convince everyone more babies are worth it even when they're sick LOL So pleased you made it to sit your exam, if you didn't think it went bad then that must be a good sign, i always thought my exams went terrible and was surprised by the outcome. I'm sure you did great.

Christi- Iris is such a cutie! Congrats on all the great news! This week is definitely yours!

Ally- i have absolutely no idea who that dude is but he looks happy to be beside you! You look great! I had a dream about you last night but i barely recognised you, you lost so much weight in 2 weeks (LOL i think it's all the talk about the herbalife girl coming) you had to to tell me it was you!

Simone- super impressed with your weight loss and just how you're inspiring everyone else too!

o.k can I remember anything else?
