In the midst of all the bad comes something wonderfully good!
Filed in Daily life, July 30, 2007, 4:34 amI was sent an email tonight, telling me that I have won second prize in the WAHM Naps opening contest! How good is that?
Ivy and Noah get (to share) 1 all in one nappy by Weez Awa, 1 fitted nappy by Auntie Michelle’s Nappies and 1 custom hand dyed soaker by Covered in Cloth!!!
There absolutely […]
Winter conspiracy theory.
Filed in Daily life, July 29, 2007, 3:58 pmHere it is.
I thought this through in the wee hours of this morning as I was cleaning up vomit.
Our illnesses all started after I purchased a bottle of Vitamin C. (A super sized bottle for a super sized family). About three or four days AFTER we started taking them actually.
My theory is that the vitamin […]
At least someone has a sense of humour…
Filed in Daily life, , 12:37 amWhen I asked David this afternoon what he was going to say to the paed when we called him regarding Ivy tomorrow, his response was
"Help".
When I said, no, really, what will you say? He said…
"Help. Please."
Flu season sucks
Filed in Health, illness, July 26, 2007, 3:14 pmI know all I write about these days is sick kids. Readers, you must be sick of it because I am SO over it.
In the infamous words of the paed, yesterday, ‘The Flu Sucks!’
It sure does.
I have all the kids home today. Some have it and some don’t but I’m sure they will get it. It is […]
thankful…
Filed in Daily life, July 25, 2007, 3:37 amI know I whinge and moan about the medical care up here but I am really very thankful…
I am thankful that we have a good, kind, paed, who humours us. Ok, he is not often available but today he called first thing and we are going to see him tomorrow. I know it’s only for reassurance […]
And so, in an instant, things change…
Filed in Health, illness, babies, doctor related posts, July 24, 2007, 3:48 pmDavid’s flu has been passed on to Ivy and Noah and Imogen.
Yesterday Ivy had a very scary febrile convulsion and my acopia reared it’s ugly head. The paed (with his great plan) went home and was ‘uncontactable’ (is that a word?) according to his receptionist.
So we went to the local hospital. I only have two […]
What is Electrophobia, J4G photos and irresponsible men.
Filed in Daily life, Health, illness, babies, twins, July 23, 2007, 5:42 amElectrophobia: The fear of electricity or in Noah’s case, the fear of electrical appliances.
To date, Noah is afraid of;
The vacuum cleaner,
The mix master,
The blow heater,
The hair dryer,
The blower vac and
The lawn mower.
When any of these machines whir into action, Noah cries and runs to me. He clings to me tightly and shakes. His heart palpates […]
Shop & Crop inspired scrapping

Babies in the bed, grand openings and who says gender specific play is a learned thing?
Filed in Daily life, babies, family, , 10:26 pmOh, just to have one night without a baby in my bed! It would probably feel weird, actually. Last night was the first night that Noah slept through, since his last bout of illness. In absolute contrast to him was his sister and my resident teddy bear, Ivy Hazel. Last night, I went to bed […]
Wet, cold and oh so bored and we need some support up here!
Filed in Daily life, children, family, premature babies, twins, July 20, 2007, 5:17 amToday it was wet and freezing and the babies and I were stuck inside to slowly go cabin mad. (Like a dog goes chain mad).
I did what any person would do and took out my camera. After the babies demolished the kitchen followed quickly by the loungeroom, unrolled a new toilet roll and started in […]
