Lucky eight. Weeks that is.

Saturday, February 27th, 2010

By some wierd and random act of your choice of deity I find myself with a baby who is asleep and two kidlets at the pool with mr hissychick.
In other words I actually have a chance to blog.
There is so much to catch upon, so much to tell you but as I am currently caught [...]

The results are in….

I’ll keep it short but oh so sweet.
Risk of Down Syndrome using combined ultrasound and blood test results is 1:7602.
Trisonomy 13 and 18 is 1:13365.
Quite simply it doesn’t get any better than this:

So lovely to share the sneaky peak of our little one with A, E and my Mum- even if the boisterous behaviour of [...]

I’m an Auntie again.

Around 11:30 am this morning little Madison Rose was born.
Welcome dear sweet girl and congratulations to your parents on your safe arrival. It is especially lovely to see that you have made my BIL a father at last, a dream I suspect has remained well hidden in his heart until now.
Now I must get off [...]

About bloody time

Voters of the USA,
Well done.  The rest of the world thanks you.
Now let us never speak of the last eight years of lunacy again.

We’re baaackkk!

And to celebrate I am going to have a little hissyfit because word farking press just trashed my post.
I’ll be back once I’ve finished sulking (and catching up on your various blogs of course).

Bad karma

Wednesday, October 1st, 2008

This morning, for the thousandth time, I offered A the option of doing what I asked or going to the thinking/whinging/please just get the hell away from me chair.
You know what she said?
“That’s not my choice Mummy, they’re YOUR choices. I want MY choice…where’s MY choice… (I started to do the 123 count)…stop counting Mummy…arrrrrggghhh [...]

Three years five months

Friday, July 4th, 2008

You talk and discuss and muse aloud, using words such as interested, dangerous and probiotic in their appropriate contexts with consummate ease. You have so many funny sayings and philosophical questions, as I have faithfully recorded so many times on this blog.
You can dress yourself from head to toe, patiently threading the straps of your [...]

A bit of fluff

Tuesday, February 19th, 2008

Having a break from the ‘puter today peoples. Will be back soon to tell you about our Tresillian visit (hint: not much to tell).
In the meantime here’s something* to amuse yourselves with:

Take the Quiz here!
And to think I don’t look a thing like Miss Bennett. Mr hissychick, however, bears an uncanny resemblance to Colin Firth’s [...]

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, 2008

I 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 [...]
