Oct/Nov 2008 mommies!

Ha ha ha, I'm loging in to say something along the exact same lines as Helen....................I'M KNACKERED!!! LOL but had to make a quick stop to say thanks to EVERYONE!

I can bearly keep my eyes open and my ribs are BURNING from the pressure so I'm going to do personal thank you's tomorrow but for now i really just wanted to say thank you all so so very much, Elwyn (like Theo) was astounded when he saw how much he had to carry in from the boot LOL then i spent the rest of the whole afternoon unpacking everything to really see how spoilt Myself and the tweenies were!

Nelria- thanks for hosting us all again, i wish I could've stayed to help you clean up!

will chat tomorrow girls but my ribs are in agony and i just can't sit here anymore!

Hi Ladies,

Just a quick pop in as I'm absolutely exhausted but I couldn't go to bed without saying a massive thank you for all the lovely gifts. The baby has been thoroughly spoilt, Theo passes on his thanks as well, he was shocked when I got home with so many bags and he feels totally humbled that people whom I've never physically met can be so generous. Thank you ladies, it is an honour to be a part of such a special group of mommies.

Nelria - Thank you so much for hosting and thanks everyone for all the lovely food, the scones were well worth the heartburn

Zee - sounds like you've had a busy and fun weekend hehe, you and Ziani were missed today. Hope her tummy improves, when Oliver had an upset tummy he ended up with thrush as well from all the nappies so you might want to treat her rash for thrush as well just in case.

Julz - Glad you enjoyed your treatments, there's a green face here Hope its nothing serious with Dylan!

And at that I must go crawl in to bed, thanks again ladies. X x X

hi everyone, glad you enjoyed the meet. So dissapointed that i missed it... Im really exhausted, we had a braai on friday with a friend from london, and then we were at a 30th in pta last night. Oh my goodness, i totally had too much wine and cocktails, only left there at 3 am! ↲zianis tummy is still not 100percent and apparently went 4 times today. Poor baby's got an awful nappy rash.↲Okay,thats all from me. Im heading for the shower and then bed. I hope its a good week for everyone. Z

HI Ladies

Sounds like the babyshower was perfect!!!

Had a quiet weekend, but too busy. Went to the shops yesterday and got Dylan his new car seat then went to my gran and then to a kiddy party. It was nice as all the kids were from his future class. My friends kid goes to challenger so all the guest kids were from the same class so I got to meet all the new moms etc. Really nice bunch of ladies.Dylan was a bit miserable to say the least but last night when he went to bed he puked so much I had to change all the linen and myself and bath him again. he has not eaten for 2 days, but is drinking.

We went to spier wine estate today. I had my treatments which were heavenly. I also spent way too much on nice products but it has been ages since I last treated myself. The men went for a nice walk while I was at the spa and then we met up for a picnic. Finished by 12 and we drove home. Dylan slept from then till 3 (so did mommy). I have no idea what is wrong with him so fx he is okay. Not quite himself and I am sick of t tubbies! He now knows how to put the dvd in by himself!

Need to start gym this week so I look forward to it and yoga starts tomorrow.

mandy thank u for the lovely breakdown of everybody and the kiddies. Cant wait to see pics.

Exercise ....i am doing zumba, training with my wii fit and today we bought yoga mats and going to get yoga dvds. So will be adding that to the mix.
Extra weight???where???

Christi that sucks re:car! I still have to sort my console bushes out...so much freakin money!

We had a nice weekend. Playdate yesterday morning, then birthday party. Addy got her face painted.looked so cute. Shame but the bday boy refused to let addy play with his woody doll...anybody else could, except her! He'd come grab it and walk away then hand to somebody else.he even followed me when woody was just lying on bed to tell me:u can't give woody to Addison! (i was going to fetch my bag) Shame I have never seen her so heartsore and sad. She just cried quietly. I know they can't have everything they want, but I wish the mom had told him not to be selfish...i don't tolerate Addy being selfish...and this child has free reign when he comes here and Addy shares with him.

So feeling very sad for my child..off we went to game today to buy her a woody doll at R599!yikes! My sister said she's pay half...she was very excited to see the doll, but more excited for play play shoes. So I bought her shoes, puzzles, ironing board and iron and a bubble gun and still spent less than woody doll! If I have alot of money then I'll get it...but I didn't wanna spend so much and R50 shoes would make her even more excited! The other stuff I put away towards her bday present stash...but I tell u...no idea if I'll hold out.

So full..made lamb curry, chicken and veggies stew...with baby corn, mushroom, courgette, etc, salad and steamed cauliflower. Was yummy!

Hello friends

Well the worlds biggest baby shower was great.. it really was lovely to see everyone and lelani is just awesome. She never sat still that i can remember, she ran around taking pics and chatting to everyone and really made a great impression. Thanks for visiting us Lelani!

The Preggie gals really all looked fab, perhaps second time around with your oldest in tow - you really just have to get on with it. Zamzie arrived near the end but we were so relieved that she did arrive as she was the only one who was being surprised and boy was she with so many gifts! Zamzie is really pretty, waering a beautful floral dress with her neat preggy belly!

Nelria is the most gracious host, 2 babies, and a house full of guests cant be easy.. but thanks Nel, you really did an awesome job! Leah is so papa vas that she dissapeared to keep dad company but she is looking so cute and was very well behaved.

Ally as usual looked fab and her twins have grown up so much! Abi is a really pleasant little gal exploring everything, while Aiden was feeling a little sick with teething and wanted to sit on allys lap the whole time while it was 28 degrees I am sure!

Vix hair is growing beautifully and she was wearing black so even her tummy was slim and trim!! I was expecting it to be much bigger! Little Christopher is quiet buy busy and ran and around hiding from mom a couple of times

Jess and Bryce - too precious, Bryce is almost as BOYISH and naught as Cam - they are both pro's on their bikes and like to do whatever mom tells them NOT to do! Cam smacked and hit and cried everytime he wanted his way and everytime they did so, Jess and I had to run around telling our boys to say sorry to their new friends!! Bryce is seriously cute and wore a little peak cap and was too precious!

Oliver is also a bike boy and has lost alot of his weight! He was very well behaved as always! Helen looks so slim and trim, she makes pregnancy look WAY too easy!

Immana was so amazing, she decided that she wanted Lelani to pick her up and went and reached her arms out at her and sat on her lap for ages ! she was dressed bautifully and so sweet!

We had a new mom there Natalie , who is also preggie also from Moomie who joined us with a sweet tiny 13month old called Sarah.. Sarah is a real little lady who fitted in very well! Welcome Natalie

Lelanis Zian was another bike boy and adventure boy - he also really seemed to fit in like hed known us all for ages!

Christa and little Iris also came, Irish loves to play with spoons and cups and kept herself busy forever on her own!! Such an independant thing!

I think thats it, and wow cam slept from the car until now so thanks for that gals. His dads just gone to fetch him so Ill be signing off soon!

It was really fab - im kinda hoping that one day we get to have a baby free tea so that i can get to know you all a bit more!

Have a good week all!!
