« Previous EntriesIt’s all happening
Thursday, January 31st, 2008Tomorrow I will be braving the supermarket and spending way too much cashola on sugar and preservative laden non food and plasticky crap for A’s birthday party.
And let’s not forget the cake, the butterfly cake, the BUTTERFLY cake that miss A has been telling all and sundry about, the one she keeps gazing at as […]
Three years old
Wednesday, January 30th, 20086:45 am this morning:
“Mummy, Daddy, wake up! I’m THREE!!!”
And so you are my darling miss A.
Happy Birthday sweetheart, may there be many more, celebrated with the same joy and enthusiasm and cake gobbling as you did today.
I love you tttthhhhhhiiiiisssss much. Times three of course.
The eve of three
Tuesday, January 29th, 2008So A turns three tomorrow.
I must have blinked because somehow the seven celled embryo I viewed with awe on the TV screen prior to transfer almost four years ago has become a strong willed, clever and confident little girl in little more than an instant. And it’s happening all over again. Before I know it […]
Still here..
Sunday, January 27th, 2008..just relaxing with the family over the Australia Day long weekend. If by relaxing you mean fretting about how to ensure that A’s upcoming birthday party is a sugar fuelled frenzy that all the cool preschoolers will still be talking about in high school. Kidding. Sort of.
Anyway, just wanted to record for posterity how gorgeous […]
Housework avoidance syndrome
Friday, January 25th, 2008I am irritated.
And I am really irritated that I am irritated.
For some reason today I feel premenstrual, although I don’t think I should be. Not that I’d know given that my cycles are still out of whack, presumably thanks to a booby monster named E.
Anyway. I’m edgy, sick of my own company and wanting […]
I am who I am not. Um yeah.
Thursday, January 24th, 2008I need distracting from my impending tanty at the way my breastfeeding beyond six months post is shaping up and- LOOK AWAY mr hissychick, i’m about to talk about feelings!*….
So here’s a bit of fluff n stuff:
I am:
Thirty one years old (eek), but am certain my real age lies somewhere between fourteen and twenty one. […]
Tattletales and a booby monster meets meat
Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008Tonight I gave E a chip sized piece of boiled chicken with her usual pureed dinner vegie combo (yes! she has suddenly started eating from a spoon! and someone in this house likes my cooking!).
You could hear the choir of angels singing the nanosecond flesh met tastebuds.
And yea verily, all was good. Finger licking […]
Conversations with A
Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008Almost three year olds are endlessly fascinating, combining a heady mix of vastly improved vocabulary with a uniquely endearing take on the world. Some snippets of conversations with A today:
On her upcoming birthday:“It’s my birthday soon. When I was a baby, I turned one. Then I got bigger and turned two. But I’m older now, […]
Let’s change topics shall we?
Monday, January 21st, 2008I promise…no more posts about sleep and lack thereof. For now*.
Time to start tackling that BFing post and updating the look of my blog.
One question I’d love to seek your opinion on dear readers (all 3 of you):
Is a blog which contains more personal information, ie names and in particular photos, of greater interest to […]
Save that dance
Saturday, January 19th, 2008Why, oh why did I open my big fat mouth?
You guessed it folks. Last night was another shocker. Could not get A to sleep until 11, same time as E. Both A and E then tag teamed on the wake up calls.
Mr hissychick then had to deal with a tantruming, shouting wife this morning. And […]
