Happy 2nd birthday my cherubs
Filed in Love, celebrations!, toddlerhood, November 29, 2007, 1:11 pmHappy Happy Birthday my gorgeous Ivy and Noah!
At two Noah can:
Speak up to six word sentences.
Run.
Jump.
Dance.
Feed himself with a spoon (this is a very messy affair though).
Take his own nappy off (and his sister’s).
Tease his sisters ( a pre requisite for being male and having sisters, I think).
Climb into his own bed.
Draw (scribble).
Release himself from the […]
Birthday memories…
Filed in Love, celebrations!, premature babies, toddlerhood, twins, November 28, 2007, 9:54 amWell, dear readers, it’s the day before my little cherubs turn two. We have had many ups and downs over the last 24 months (most of them chronicled on this blog).
My little guy is amazing, social, easy going, talkative, has a gorgeous dimpled smile and a wicked sense of humour, loves routine, kisses and cuddles. […]
Apology

I’m so sorry and I really do thank you for your patience when it takes ages to load.
We can’t work out why. I’m not really sure what to do about it, other than take all of my bits and […]

ACK! A day in the hospital…the continuing saga of a girl that has gone to the dogs.
Filed in Health, illness, doctor related posts, friends, , 6:51 amI won’t show you the photos but trust me it was bad. So bad that when the paed got the email with said photos attached, he called me straight away.
Those who have been reading my blog for a while will know that when our paed calls us before 6pm, when you’ve called at office […]
Insomnia, when you really want to sleep but can’t.
Filed in Sleep deprivation, November 26, 2007, 11:13 amI don’t have trouble falling asleep. Ever.
The days are so busy that by the time I fall into bed, I am exhausted.
Insomnia came to visit me when William died. Not at first, not in those first few, grief stricken months, when my body screamed "ENOUGH"! and shut itself down into blessed, dreamless sleep. It crept […]
Not available in Australia…ever
Filed in Daily life, , 4:05 amThis has been on my wish list for a while. I love it. I want it. I need it.
Today we set about trying to find someone in Australia, ‘the lucky country’, who sells them.
Not so lucky, it seems. Nobody does.
Gutted am I. No toddler B - double for me.
Panic!
Filed in celebrations!, wig out, , 3:36 amOkay, breathe.
There are still four days to go, five until their party.
I’m not ready! I’m not ready! I’m not ready!
It’ll be okay. It will all come together. It always does.
You’re disorganised for a reason. It’s because you’re not ready for this, for them to turn two. For them to lose their baby faces, their chubby […]
