I am unsure when that happened but here we are!We have had some really busy weekends these last few weeks having to fit in 3-4 things/events a day so when it comes round to Sunday night we are all … [Read more...]

When did this happen and how can I make it all slow down????? I cannot believe that my baby girl is almost 9 months. That means that she has been longer out than in and we have managed to keep her alive and well (some might even say thriving!).What a big girl she is now. We took some pictures of her … [Read more...]

It's been a busy week or so in the life of Miss Daisy May. We have had a trip to emergency last week - she was bitten by mosquitoes at daycare last week and had some sort of reaction to them where her little hands blew up and were all swollen. When she woke up the next day I took her straight up to … [Read more...]

Daisy has taken to talking and we can't seem to keep her quiet! (I wonder where that comes from?) She loves to say Mummamumaa ma ma ma when she is either hungry, tired, thirsty, cranky or wants to be picked up. Da da Da da is used for chatting with her Daddy or when she is happy. Funny how that … [Read more...]

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...]

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...]

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...]

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...]

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...]

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...]

Poor Daisy has been sick this last week with her first flu, nasty cough, runny nose and an ear infection to top it all off! She was miserable last week - I couldn't even get a smile out of her which just broke my heart. So we went to the doctor and managed to get some antibiotics for her which … [Read more...]

Each Wednesday afternoon Daisy and I have been going to mother's group which was set up through the local council when you first get home from the hospital. The first 4 weeks were held at the hospital and then after that it was up to us to decide where to meet. We have been meeting at the pub (there … [Read more...]

We are finally back from our 2 week holiday up at EIEIO and what fun we had! Daisy had the best time (and so did I) just relaxing in the autumn sunshine and taking it VERY EASY. She was a great traveller up there and back and slept well in her little porta cot. It was funny to have her in my room … [Read more...]

I was in a book shop yesterday buying my next book for book club when I came upon the children's section filled with books ready for mother's day. I picked up one and read it, then sobbed and had to purchase it embarrassingly with tears running down my face. I am not an overly sentimental person but … [Read more...]

Daisy was 11 weeks old yesterday which means that next week we have hit the magical 12 week mark that all the books and everyone tells you about. I'm not sure what will happen - probably nothing but we will be celebrating the fact that we have made it this far and we are all having a good old time … [Read more...]

I swear to you this baby just gets better and better everyday. I am falling head over heels more and more each day I don't know how much more room I have in my heart and then the next day comes along and I get a new sound, a laugh or a smile and I POP all over again.Daisy is 10 weeks old tomorrow … [Read more...]

Daisy and I have had an interesting week - 2 nights in the hospital last week with a bad case of mastitis and a breast abcesswhich has been very painful and a nasty thing to go through. With IVantibiotics I am slowly starting to get better which is good. I have tokeep going back to the hospital … [Read more...]

Daisy, I can't believe that you are 1 month old tomorrow. 4 weeks, 4 long weeks and also such a short amount of time to have our lives completely turned upside down! Each day you are getting bigger and longer and certainly chubbier - you have little doublke chin that has started to appear and when … [Read more...]
