So I have officially slapped myself and am out of the dreary doldrums of last week. I have SO much to be happy about and grateful for so I will be quiet. Until the next time ok! AND I felt 100% better when almost everyone in my mothers group was feeling the same way. Just must be the 8 month grind … [Read more...]

I am not sure what is wrong with me at the moment but I just seem to be some sort of rut. Feeling funky and blue. I guess it has something to do with sleep deprivation but I am just OVER IT.I seem to cry at everything (like a new Mother) and I don't seem to be able to cope with things like I could … [Read more...]

Of course this weekend was the first weekend where we didn't have (much) on and Rob wasn't working (well only Sat arvo) so we were looking forward to spending some time at home, going for walks, going out for lunch and spending some time with our little lady.Oh yes we spent some time with the little … [Read more...]

I have had just the busiest craziest month or so and as you can see I haven't even had a chance to get on here. At long last we have the Internet up and running from home so things should be a little better from now. No promises though.We are in our lovely little house which is just wonderful. We … [Read more...]

I have just been so busy I have not had a second to get on here. I apologise. I actually don't even have time for a proper entry as I am at work so here are some snaps instead. I promise to write a better entry later this week when I FINALLY have internet access at home (do not get me started on … [Read more...]

I have been offline due to bigpond not sending me my new modem as yet so have been very slack on the updates.All moved into the new house which is fabulous just would love to spend some time there! Back at work which has been hard and nasty but something that I … [Read more...]

It's been a big day for the Macdonald girls - it was Daisy's first day at daycare. I tell you if it wasn't for the fact that I had to pack up the house I would have crawled into a hole and wept all day. Given the packing I only wept for about an hour. It felt like I left my heart over in the daycare … [Read more...]

Yesterday Daisy had her first swimming lesson. I can tell you that it didn't go down well. From the moment she got into the water she SCREAMED and didn't stop until she was out of the water and wrapped up in a towel. Poor bubba! I think that is was a little cold for her (much colder than what she is … [Read more...]

We had our big trip to Qld on the weekend for my work conference. It all went really well - Daisy travelled well, Rob was a terrific carer for her, and the work part wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be.We left Saturday morning - Daise was great on the plane which I was nervous about - she … [Read more...]

Daisy hit 5 months on the weekend if you can believe that. She is getting bigger by the minute, the second even. Each time I go into her cot to pick her up she feels heavier, seems more aware, and seems fatter. She is just delicious - the fat rolls are growing by the day! Here are some snaps taken … [Read more...]

Last week Mum and I went to visit her aunty (my Great aunty) Daisy so she could meet our little Daisy. We had a lovely time up there - she lives at Brooklyn on the Hawkesbury River where she lives with her husband Doug and daughter and grandkids. She has lived there her whole life - across the road … [Read more...]

This isa video of Daisy taken on Rob's phone on the weekend. She seems to be a happy girl since she has been getting some solid foods! We even started on pears on the weekend (actually this was just after the pears so I think she was riding a sugar high!).Have finally had some luck on the formula as … [Read more...]

This past week has been an end of some things for Daisy and the start to new things as well. We went away on the weekend to the Blue Mountains with my family and we had a lovely time relaxing indoors (it was freezing out) and eating and drinking the time away. It was especially nice to spend time … [Read more...]

My name is Daisy Macdonald and I am addicted to eating my hands. Eating anything in fact that I can put in my mouth. I put my hands so far down my throat that I gag and sometimes vomit. And that still doesn't stop me. I will do it again and again. Gag, vomit. Gag, vomit. I also like to dribble. A … [Read more...]

Not a great deal to report on at the moment but thought I should report nonetheless. Daisy will be 19 weeks this week (which doesn't really mean much these days as I seem to measure her in months now). We have had a quiet week (well sort of we have managed to buy a house) but have tried to stay home … [Read more...]

And it's not just Daisy that's growing up this time...Rob and I too! We have bought a house! Well we are in the process of buying a house. It's very exciting and has happened all quite quickly. I have actually bought it privately through one of the girl's from Mother's Group. It's in Camperdown … [Read more...]

If you can believe it Daisy is 4 months old today. I am having trouble believing that we are here already. She is SO MUCH FUN I have to tell you - she laughs at all my jokes (sometimes so hard that she wets her pants!) and is feeling much better after her nasty flu. She still has a pretty horrible … [Read more...]

It was this weekend last year that we found that we were having a baby. So I guess I have been a mother for a year. I can't believe that it was Daisy all that time ago. It truly is a miracle that we can go and make little human beings that laugh and grow. I am amazed by it everyday.I will tell you … [Read more...]
