Experiences that I don’t care to repeat

Friday, March 28th, 2008

The funny:
Having to calmly explain to A within earshot of the other highly amused Mums at mother’s group yesterday that no she couldn’t wee standing up like her mate N because she doesn’t have a penis.  Only to catch her a few hours later at home as she was about to STAND on the toilet […]

Mills and Boon for Infertile Myrtles

Thursday, March 27th, 2008

She’d always known that he was the One. Tall, dark and handsome, he was a man of strength and determination, a powerful player in the business world yet so kind and gentle to those he let into his heart.
At the very moment they met, eyes locking across the crowded room, she’d  seen the future flash […]

Just when you thought it was safe. And stuff.

Yes dear internets, I am baaaaccckk.
My mini blogging break* is over, and I am hoping that I am now sufficiently clear of mind to recommence blogging with gusto, eloquence, wit and vigour.
I’ll stop laughing when you do.
Anyway, a good fun and chocolately Easter was had by mr and mrs and the little hissychicks.  Both A […]

Taking a mini break

Thursday, March 20th, 2008

Dear internets, I am going to take a mini break from posting* but I’ll be back next week.  I need to ignore the fact that I am turning 32 on Saturday spend some quality time with my family over the Easter break stressing myself stupid over E’s refusal to breastfeed after her first morning feed […]

Nine months

Tuesday, March 18th, 2008

And so miss E, you have achieved another momentous milestone, having lived for longer in the outside world than the precious time you spent growing in my womb.
My precious girl, you are so big and so clever now. From the tiny, wide eyed 2.9 kg 46 cm long pixie that you were when you made […]

Proof that your choice of deity hates me

E will be nine months old this Tuesday.
A is not happy with her younger sister’s rapidly increasing mobility nor E’s interest in her ‘big girl’ toys.
Time for this mummy to start swigging some Phenergan.

Stating the obvious

Saturday, March 15th, 2008

Apologies in advance for the non witty and poorly written post. But.
But.
I’m going to start with the positives: E does high fives and can now perch up  on her knees as she plays and reaches for toys, a key precusror to pulling to a stand.. A has started to draw pictures you can actually recognise […]

Black spot

I’m in one.
And it sucks.

To do list

Thursday, March 13th, 2008

Babyproof EVERYTHING. Miss E, are you sure you need to be working on pulling to a standand climbing right now? It’s only been a week or so since you started crawling and you’ve already mastered that plus going from crawling to sitting. So why the need to be upright and walked around? Enough already.
Try not […]

(Non) domestic goddess

Monday, March 10th, 2008

The Anzac biscuits that A and I baked today may not actually have the look or even proper consistency of correctly prepared home baked goodies. But dammit, even doughy goo can be so moreish.
You guessed it folks, I have nothing profound to say. So I won’t.
I’m off to google “My almost nine month old is […]
