freakin out

OK I'm freakin out, Kyra started pre-entry Kindy yesterday, the hens night is this Saturday and Jack has his first visit to daycare tomorrow I think I will only leave him two hours but he has been such a Mummys boy this week it isn't funny.

And my boss just got made redundant. I shouldn't go on maternity leave.... my last boss got made redundant last time I was on leave.

What is it with babies teeth, poor little fella doesn't want to eat or drink and won't even let me get bonjella on his gums. He is only eating when the hunger just gets too much for him but in the mean time he has worked out how to unpack Kyra's lunch box and is busy trying to pull the people out of the TV screen! There was some show on yesterday called Oobi it's peoples hands as puppets but he was bang banging at them like he does to me when we clap hands together and he was making his little look at me noises at them! Too cute.....

So I'm sitting here trying to expel some of this stress. I'm sure the hens night will be fine but it still feels like there is so much to do.

Kyra is so excited about the wedding, how does a nearly four year old know how to pose like this

nearly four year olds

Today Kyra told my friends nieces that they weren't her 'friends' I think she meant it innocently because she hadnt met them before, she was certainly very shocked that I said that it wasn't very nice and she was ashamed of herself and didn't want to say sorry. So I spent the whole car trip home explaining to her that if she meets someone new and they are nice to her and she enjoyed playing with them then they are a new friend. I think she understood but you just never know...

Jack started crawling 2 weeks ago and now he is into everything in a way that Kyra never was! No sooner had he crawled tho that he starts standing up on the furniture and now he is starting to cruise it. It's funny how you cant wait for the first one to do everything, but with the second you realise just how fast they grow and you just don't want them to do anything quickly. My baby is growing so fast and there won't be anymore.................

Where Do I Start


I have no idea if I will ever have anything very interesting to say..... I'm a happily married mother of two rugrats. Kyra (nearly 4) and Jack (8 months) we live half an hour south of Adelaide, South Australia. I'm on maternity leave but not for much longer, I will be returning to work on the 12th of March and must admit I'm not looking forward to it.

I am not a 'house proud' person to say the least, and while my home is clean it is certainly not tidy about the only time it is is when we are having a party of some description at our house!! We are hoping to move in September/October this year to a larger home so that my lounge room is no longer the playroom for the kids. I could keep all their toys in their rooms but what is the point of having children if you shut them away all the time........




My sister gets married in 3 weeks and the hens night is in a week and I am absolutely terrified that the hens night will be an awful mess and everyone will hate it but I am also soooooooo looking forward to it. My lovely mother-in-law is coming to stay with the kids because the bucks night is the same night.
