Oct/Nov 2008 mommies!

Helen do they serve the parents a full buffet for supper when they pic the kids up????? For that price I'd expect a weekly massage as well!lol. That is crazy!

I agree u could rather get a full time nanny and have clean house every day.

Pfairy that damage to your carport is terrible! Luckily nobody was hurt!

Shame Gerard gets home now and Addy is awake...so he needs to put her to sleep after spending all day with her, clearing drawers, moving lounge around, going to work until now...as besotted as he is with his child....i think he was hoping she was asleep.

She was so tired...sitting up and closing her eyes....then she realises what's happening and gets up and starts jumping on bed! Almost falling off cause she is so 'lam' from being tired. As u all know...9pm is WAY passed her bedtime!

Mandy glad cam ate well! Addy had a meatball and about 1tbsp sweet corn and 1tsp mash...decent supper by our standards.

P fairy I am so very sorry for all your bad luck. Thankfully nobody was hurt and insurance will pay I am sure. Congrats on 10kg mark.

Helen wow daycare is expensive in JHB. We pay about 1600 full day. Yes you might as well get a nanny. Wow oliver is tall!!!

Simone Well done on working so hard. I have lots to do now to hand over by the 7th of next month.

Thanks mandy and I am so pleased Cameron eats well. Wish Dylan would.

Nicole so pleased you found a wonderful dress. One less thing for you to worry about.

Talking about weddings lots of drama with my sisters and sleeping arrangement. Anyway not going to worry now.

Helen that is insane ... 2 kids are costly.

Pfairy what happened to your house?

Mandy lol at loving him more when he eats nicely.

Simone glad u got all that done but what will u do tomorrow.

Shrey and I are relaxing in bed. Still have a couple dishes to wash that couldn't go into dishwasher. And a load of clothes to put into machine.

Hi Hi all... They took away the Email thing. I hate it. It was so nice to read all your posts via email. now, I can't read everything every night.

July is officially not our month. first the big electricity bill and today our gardner decided to "remove" the big old palm tree in front of our house. Then the tree fell on our carport. luckily nobody got hurt. luckily no car was parked underneath the carport. and luckily it didn't fell on the house. but hell... I will cost us a lot. don't think the insurance will pay for this. now my car must sleep outside.

here is a photo....


sorry, I didn't read the posts. I must pack now. we and friends are going away for the weekend. I really need this weekend. just to forget about high bills and falling trees.

Hope you all will have a lovely weekend. Love you all!!!!!

Helloooooo!

Wow you've been chatting up a storm again

Nicole - YAY on wedding dress, wohoo!!

Simone - That was nice of your friend, its amazing how much stuff doesn't get worn.

Mandy - lol at being in love with him when he eats well, its amazing how much less stressful it is when you know they've got a full tummy

Yoza - Hope all goes well with your dad's appointment.

Christi - You gave me a good giggle at Jack Tar

Nelria - Cute cute cute! Looooove Lea's hair hehe, not to mention the face she's pulling and as for Xen, what beautiful eyes.

Ally - Glad you made progress with the shopping. How many days til you go away now (just to make us all jealous)?

Angie - PLease don't feel bad, I only took Oliver today for his 18month shots and he's 2days short of 20months.

Everyone else - Hello I can't remember anymore now

AFM - Took Oliver for 18month shots today, he cried a bit but as soon as the nurse gave him a sucker he was happy He's 91cm and 16.1kg. She said straight away "Wow he's a big boy" lol.

Also went to look at a couple of creche's but feeling a bit despondent and disappointed about it (but I'm not going to give up yet), I've been thinking about getting Oliver into creche for maybe 2/3 days a week so that when the baby comes I'll have some time alone with the baby but it seems nobody will charge a daily rate, we either have to pay for a full week at half day or a full month at full day, the going rate seems to be between R1600-2000 for half day and R1800-3000 for full day eeeeek! I think instead we might have to look at getting a full time domestic because then she'll be able to look after both and then maybe in a year or so look again at getting Oliver into creche. At least I have my mum coming for a fair stay when the baby comes so that'll be a big help...

I can't believe how expensive daycare is, imagine I put both into daycare, we'd be looking at anything up to R6000 a month in fees, that's just insane!!!!!!!!!!
