Oct/Nov 2008 mommies!

Hi ladies

Yoza so pleased all went well and you have nothing to worry about.

Leigh I am so sorry for your sadness and I hope your uncle is comfortable.

Lisha well done on 36 hours. It is understandable that you are missing it too. It is a huge step for a mommy.

Okay so getting sad that this part of the journey is coming to an end. Just getting used to Delhi. Shopped at Sarojini Nagar market today which is just huge and amazing. Muddy but not dirty really.

Went to Hard rock Cafe this evening for a burger which was awesome. Two girls leave tomorrow and then the rest on Wed morning and then we fly to Mumbai until Sat morning. Time flies in India!!!

Well I am tired and am going to bed. Lots of love from India.

Hi guys

Been very quiet here this weekend!

Yoza I am so happy that all is clear on Siba's scan. xxxx mommy, I'm sure it must have been difficult for u guys but atleast u now have peace of mind.

Leigh so busy as usual. I'm planning on making some cup cakes for Shrey's bday but I'm afraid it will look now where as pretty as yours or Ally's, will just smear butter icing on.

Mandy Cam is such a clever little guy. Shrey doesn't spend enough time with this shape sorter to get it right.

So big news from me - Shrey has not had a drink of 'noonies' for the last 36 odd hours. I used the neem oil in the morning yesterday and he tasted it and said curry, then gave up. Last night was pretty tough but he only really asked once. Hopefully this exhaustion will wear off once he has gotten used to not having the breast. And whilst I am thrilled at not having him latched onto my breasts, I still feel a great deal of sadness ... Sure I will get over it soon though.

Will chat more tomorrow. Hope u all have a fab Sunday evening.

Will catch up later. Am busy with my research at Dh work.

Leigh I need to place a cake order for siba's birthday.

Hi Mandy,
I'm soooo drowning lately. With the boys here in the afternoons I've had to do my modelling work for the cakes in the mornings/lunchtimes and evenings. Then the boys in the afternoons. Then this weekend I had 35 babyshower cupcakes, 20 angel cupcakes and a christening cake, a bridal shower cake, a guitar cake and a tennis cake. On friday night I was absolutely exhausted. And now I have to do it over again. What I did have of spare time is now taken by getting prepared for the cakes for the weekend. Though am pleased to be busy this coming weekend again and then nothing much for the weekend of the 18th, maybe a break?

Anyway my uncle is still in hospital. He doesnt' look well and they don't think he will have much time. He's hoping to fly out to the UK at the end of this month, after 12 treatments of radium, but we'll see. I think everyone in the family is just....weary, emotional, tired etc. Tough times.

So I'm really trying with the diet thing, I lost 2 kgs 2 weeks ago and then I fell off the bandwagon again. I really think I need to find an hour in the day for jogging - but I'm worried it will just tip me off the end energy wise - so might have to look at something to give me a boost.

Ally - did you have a great shopping spree with your food monies Must have felt goooooood, well done!! Have been checking out your blog....

I best get off to bed.....I'll catch up with the rest of you all later

Here's a photo of the babyshower cupcakes.

Mandy, that's fine! I just can't wait to read it hehehehe.
Cam is so clever!! I love how us as mommies are so amazed when they do things and I always feel like such a loser when I tell someone and they're like "oh ya!" lol

So we are going to C's family today. Neither of us are particularly in the mood for this little adventure but we have no choice. We haven't seen them in like 2 months (not long enough right? lol) but anyway. I think we must go for breakfast somewhere but eish, C is worse than a child. He is so over protective of the twins, we can't just sit and have breakfast and let them play. He is up constantly seeing what they're doing etc. It actually gets irritating. But I think I might try to convince him to go to Pappachino's with me.

Have a great weekend ladies!

Ally if u vote over the weekend use simoneg.cameron@gmail.com. I won't be able to confirm on work address.

Mandy sorry cam has not been well. Cool re:puzzle.Clever boy.

Night all.

so first of all, I want to boast.. Im sure all of your kids would do it too but i was so amazed! i have one of those wooden boards which little pieces of things that the kid places in the right shape space and it has 8 shapes in bright colours like square , star, rectangle and now cam just picks up each piece and goes straight to each hole and fits them one after the other! I just looked with my mouth open and then told him to go and show daddy.. !! He loved his mommy being so proud so then he did it all again to show daddy! my baby einstein!

Zee - thanks for asking after cam, unfortunately cam has had a cold for 3 weeks since the op. His mouth is closed more often and he is drooling less but im waiting for him to recover properly to see how much he uses his nose and then to see if it helps him keep well now..

Ally - i only read a few pages of OUR pillowtalk book! sorry, but i only really get a chance on weekends and maybe one week night to read otherwise i watch all my programmes and fall asleep! will let you know when ive read a bit more! and WILL HURRY UP!

Lisha sorry about your lack of electricity! it sucks!

Nicole - MIN DAE!!!! so so so exciting!

Vix - missing ya hon, yes i think someone said something about the 3rd? who was it?

Julz - wow you must be feeling like you are dreaming! your life has completely changed work wise! I cant wait to hear the stories!

Nelira - if you can see this, we miss you !

Yoza - you too, and where is LEIGH lately - hmm all those boys with your gals are keeping you VERY busy i see!
