Oct/Nov 2008 mommies!

Zee, that's a really good idea! Thanx. You must just help me with that if I do win hehehe.

Simone, of course I will. I'm doing it for myself and Julie so no trouble doing it for you too!

Ok, going to go relax on the couch now!

Ally if you can do the double vote for me I'd apprciate it. I figured it was in different categories so they cant stop one from voting in different categories.

Helen...ooh you need to slow down! I agree with the others...way to busy for a preggie lady!

Lisha...OOH I HOPE YOUR MEAT IS OKAY! I would freak if all that meat went off!

Okay..well off for the day.

Lelani I forgot to say earlier...so glad your brother saw the light and made Chanel's day! I'm still cross for your part that you had to be the one to say something, but I'll try and move on! lol

Angelique did u come right with accommodation for your mom? Let me know if u need help and I can check other places on monday!

Okay...now I am off. Cant wait to get home and HOPEFULLY relax a bit this weekend.

Have a lovely weekend ladies.

Just a quick pop in to wish you all a good weekend!

Simone, yes, Z will go from January. I think I should take the day off when she's going for the first time, so that I can be close if she cries too much But I think she will enjoy all the maatjies.

Lisha, hope the power has been restored, awful to struggle like that.

nicole, hope your DF gets better soon.

Helen, yes he is looking for something else now. Hopefully he'll find something soon.

And girls, you obviously did somethign right with the babies and the hectic cleaning! Z is not interested in cleaning at all. But when she's at the Kindermusik she is a realy teacher's pet and cleans and puts away all the stuff. But at home it is an entire different story ... She ignores the toy brooms, etc ...

Ange, ja , we are also giving the party a skip this year although the party planner in me is craving a party like you cannot believe. I've got the entire thing set up in my head! I should play the lotto tomorrow ...

Ally, well I'm holding fx, it will be a great thing for you and I think if you win you should definitely send out a press release to all the food mags.

Hello all

Wow work is hectic but i am taking a free moment...just to breathe.

Julz, you really seem to be enjoying you trip and I am glad that Neil and Dylan are doing well without you.

Zee, I don't think we will be doing anything for Cole this year but I am definitely baking a cake and I am sure his cousins will come over.

Nicole, hope DF (soon to be DH) feels better soon.

Otherwise I am still trying to catch up on everything.

Is siba going for the scan today?

Nicole shame so busy on a Friday. I've taken it easy today so need to cover up this weekend but just 2 tax returns. Glad K did well in the bed again.

Helen hope Theo returned already and that you finish your chores quickly so that you can have a rest too.

lol @ all these kids and the sweeping. Shrey loves it, as well as sweeping the leaves in the back when dh does so. We got him a little rake for outside and he calls it his broom. While he's busy with daddy he will call me every couple mins and say 'weeping me' his version of 'I'm sweeping'.

Simone & Ally I am so worried about all the meat and stuff in the freezer, hope the electricity came on at a decent hour. There's nearly 6kg's lamb and 4 kg's meat in the freezer and I would be horrified if that got wasted.

Julz loving the pics on fb. What exactly are you guys doing at the clinics???

Hi ladies, just a quick reply we are super busy here!

DF is still sick and meds made him worse, on new meds now so lets hope its the road to recovery!!

K slept well again last night, although at some point he tried to sneak our the room, but luckily i woke so just put him back in bed and he was asleep in 5 mins

So cute these babies, K also loves to sweep and to wipe tables etc

Julz lol skype sex and the gaps he he!

Helen you sound way to busy preggi mommy hope you get some R&R this weekend though?

Zee glad you found a wonderful creche, im Sure Ziani is going to be very happy there

Ally lol at Aidan and Mia living together with OCD , ha ha!

So K only went to sleep after 9 last night, my word not use to it cause he is usually asleep by 19:30.

Looking forward to the weekend! Im sure everyone is.

For the ladies i didnt reply to ....soooooo sorry!!!!! will try catch up later!

Morning,

So i guess what goes around comes around, I got to stay at home yesterday but then there's a bit of a 'crisis' today so I've had to come in my day off, not impressed. Nevermind, I still managed to get the other half of the couch covers in the wash and haung them out before I left so not a totally wasted day, just means I'll have more housework over the weekend.

Oliver also loves sweeping, there's no point in getting him a kids broom because he always wants the biggest one going and will go hunt it out and have a tantrum if he can't have it!

My nasal congestion was soooo bad last night, Theo said I was even snoring (I NEVER and I mean NEVER snore) and I woke up so many times with a dry mouth, grrrrr, even after using Sterimar. I can't wait for the congestion to end.

Julz - Sounds like you're having a great time, Skype is fab, glad Dylan isn't freaked out by it. Oliver also enjoys it (I've always encouraged him to chat with my parents on it) and sometimes even shows off to my mum/dad when I'm talking to them lol. You must really be missing them but at least technology helps you keep in touch

Zee - Yay on finding a creche!! Hope things improve with DH and his job, is he looking for something else?

Lelani - Yay on your brother seeing the light Chanel can carry on thinking about shoes and accessories hehe.

Vix - Yay on Elwyn's work improving, he's into welding supplies is that right? We're still feeling the recession (we manufacture wrought iron metal components), july and August are usually our quietest months but we've had our smallest turnover in years the last two months. We're still doing ok but its certainly not what it used to be.

Anyways, I have to cut it short there, Oliver has just woken up so now I have to become wonder woman and multi task work and watching Oliver as Theo's gone to Pretoria, I hate it when he leaves me when Oliver's awake...
