Yesterday. Was one of them. You know 'em. If you kids you surely know 'em. It certainly wasn't the best way to start my first day 2010 with both kids alone. Daisy told me both that she wanted to kill me, and that I was stupid. Charming no? She also threw in for good measure that I was annoying and … [Read more...]

When we went overseas last year for Christmas we came home via Hong Kong to stay with some friends. I LOVED the city and the people and the shopping - the lot - it was fabulous. What I also loved was the attention that we got because of Daisy. Well, we got to fast track customs cause we had a cute … [Read more...]

Goodness me Miss Harper Lulu you are 1 month old today!It feels both like yesterday that you came home, and also like you have been here forever. You are such a good little girl, sleeping at long stretches for your Mumma in the night, eating like a piglet, burping like a champion and then doing it … [Read more...]

Sorry for those who have come on over to check whether babe has arrived. Alas, no. I know, you're all like "isn't she 46weeks now?"Alas, no. The truth of the matter is that my 'official due date" isn't actually until next week. I know. NEXT week. I have been in denial of this date, I guess because I … [Read more...]

Yesterday we got to see that you have little chubby cheeks. Sure, it could be that there isn't much room in there but still, even the sonographer said that you had chubby cheeks. I love that.We went to have a scan and check on the size of you - which wasn't so big after all. Who knows how big you … [Read more...]

OK, not so much thirsty. Well maybe a little thirsty from all the salty foods that seem to be passing by my lips. But mostly crazy. Yes crazy. Did I mention a little crazy? I can't remember feeling like this when I was pregnant with Daisy - then again, I certainly didn't have a 2 and a half year … [Read more...]

I had to take today off work as there was no one to look after Daisy. My Mum usually has her on a Thursday but is away and all other 3 (yes I said 3! - the joys of divorced & re-married parents on both sides) grandmothers weren't able to help me out. So I took a day of annual leave (which … [Read more...]

It's been a looooooooong week. While the days have flown by in a blur of traffic and pick up's and drop off's and doctor's appointments and work, I can't quite believe that it is only Friday now. But we survived week one of Rob mostly off parental duties and me on and I mean ON.Monday I dropped off … [Read more...]

I have been threatening for days now that I will put in some snaps of the new lesbian-chic-do that I have going on, as well as some of the growing tum. I know that last pregnancy I was all proud of the gut - it was glorious! But this time I am a little more shy - wondering if I am too big etc etc. I … [Read more...]

What a weekend! The weather was nothing short of MAGNIFICENT....cool nights and then the days? Sunny, and warm(ish) for winter - 20 degrees on both days! It felt like a little start to spring and I tell you it did wonders for lifting my spirits. I think it is going to be the same again today and … [Read more...]

I feel like I am earning my way these past few days. I have been feeling like I am just about to get sick - like if I really wanted to, I could wallow in it and get really sick and miserable. But I have been fighting it off. It's the guilt of taking any time off when you are only working part time … [Read more...]

Today marks one year since this happened. A year. Gosh I can hardly believe it. It still feels like it was yesterday and then again when I look at my little girl now and think of how much she has grown in one year it seems that it must be longer - surely with all the things we have done, and grown … [Read more...]

What would it be?Half a brain to think of something witty and funny to put in here that will make people think I am oh so clever and fabulous and not to mention beautiful?No.A magical pregnancy bar that combines all my cravings (read choc milkshakes AND hot chips with mayo AND spicy food) into the … [Read more...]

Yet here I am on a Monday, back at work again. Apologies for my absence of late I just honestly haven't had time to get my shit together and write anything, you know, interesting. Twitter has been getting my attention and I think that's cause 140 characters is all about I am up for these days.Had a … [Read more...]

I won't go on too much about just how good a time we are having here. It might get boring, and a little in your face, but OH MY STARS are we having a good time!Boxing day we spent out and about - took the metro to Notre Dame and had a little look around there. The weather has been bitterly cold, but … [Read more...]

I have been trying to focus on the positives around here and not dwell too much on the fact that in a few weeks time I will no longer have a job - but a mortgage - anyway as I said...positives. And there are plenty of them.A little girl...and her new bed! Fingers crossed on this one - we had our … [Read more...]

I can't seem to find her anywhere...all I can find is this little girl with bucket loads of tude (and hair! That goes into a ponytail!) who is so darn cute it makes me not miss my baby at all.But then again....since we have come back from our holiday she has been having some problems in the sleep … [Read more...]

I am always going on about Daisy in here. Or me. But we wouldn't have either of these things without a certain someone. A certain husband and Dad. Let me tell you just how lucky I am to have a partner like Rob. For no reason other than I love him. Dearly. And who I appreciate so very much. And who I … [Read more...]

It's true. I have to work 5 days this week. I know that may be the norm for most people but for me it is truly outrageous. Luckily I will be winning the $50 million powerball tomorrow night which should rule any more of those out in the future. I am not sure what will be my first purchase when I get … [Read more...]

After a day where Daise did NOT STOP WHINGING ALL DAY I am certain that the last thing I need is another baby. Rewind and delete any thoughts there on that one.I have been the crankiest person all day not sure if I am because of Daisy or if she has picked up my vibe and ran with it herself. But from … [Read more...]
