Hmmmmm

Its late at night and the house is all quiet, don't you love this time of day?? I surely do its the only moments of the day that I get to myself! Hmmmmm the joys of parenting huh?? My baby boy Liam will be 6 on Tuesday, 6 can you believe it, I remember turning 6!!! I'm a little sad that he is growing up, he is such a character and has sooooo much love to give, I hate to think that he may lose that as he grows.........

He is my little saviour that boy, I have battled with depression for years and everyday that little darling of mine gives me something to smile about. I love him to pieces, I'm not saying I love him more than my other children, its just that I cant look at that boy and not smile!!

My eldest boy recently turned 8 and with that age has come an attitude that I'm not enjoying, hopefully he will get over it soon!!! My bubba is now 19 months old, where did that time go??? She no longer looks like a bubba and is getting that real little girl look about her! I put her hair in pigtails the other day and she looked like she could be 3!!!!! So not fair, why do they have to grow so fast!!

Enjoy your childhood whilst it lasts, its the only time you can truly be you and free of judgement from others! xxxxxx

Mothers Day

Just a quick note to wish all my lovely friends out there a wonderful Mothers Day!!! I love and hate Mothers Day all at the same time! I love the pressies and love that I get from my kids, but it makes me sad and at times angry that my Mum isn't here!!!

But the cuddles and cute pressies I got from my kidlets has made today a very special day!! A gorgeous picture from Liam who is almost 6 that also says "I love my Mum cause she loves me back" how cute is that!!

Both my boys brought me a coffee cup from the Mothers Day stall this year, last year the both brought me a fairy statue! They are more alike at times than I realise!! lol

I hope everyone has a magical day!!! xxxx

Itchy Feet

I have itchy feet, I want to move!!!! I'm feeling rather stuck here in our current home, I love it yet I cant wait to leave it!! I'm a farm girl and always will be a farm girl and living in town is currently doing my head in!! But trying to find land in our area at a decent price is proving to be harder than I first thought!!

I can find land in surrounding areas but that will mean changing schools etc etc and my kids aren't willing to do that. Even when I explain that it means they will have heaps of room to run around maybe even get a four wheeler motorbike for them to run around on, but still they so no!!

Why does it have to be so hard, do I stay and remain unhappy for longer or move them and upset the kids! Which is worse?? This is all a little too hard!!!!!!!!!! :(

Feeling the Love

I am soooo feeling the love at the moment, the love of my facebook friends that is!!! I had a bit of a rant yesterday about my MIL and her friend cutting my baby girls hair without asking me first and so many people responded I was amazed!!! I didn't expect much from it maybe a few "hey that's wrong" but what I got in response was amazing!!! 39 replies I got!! It totally blew me away!!!

I love the fact that I had my feelings validated, sometimes that is all you need to make you feel better!! I was soooo astounded by what my MIL had done I still haven't yelled at her yet but after all the love on FB I'm not so sure that I will!!! I'm thinking a silent protest may just be in order! I'm what you may call overly emotional and overly expressive so if I shut up she will get the idea that I'm unhappy!!! lol Not that it will bother her, she is always right don't you know!! lol

Ah the joys of marrying into a family, I know that it works both ways but with my mum in heaven my hubby just gets my Dad who pretty much leaves us alone!! But you get that!!

So thanks for the love my peoples, I'm sending some back to ya! xxxxxxx

Neglected

Oh my poor blog, I have neglected you for so long!!! Just like I have neglected myself really!! I started this blog in the hope that it would make me be accountable for my actions and get my bum into gear to fit into my dress for our friends wedding!!!

But no, as usual I have been slack and havent done either my blog or the lifestyle changes I needed to get into my dress!!! I was all geared up to try Bodytrim but on advice from my doctor it was a BIG NO from him!! I have bad kidneys you see and too much protein is not good for them apparently so........... I gave up and kept eating as normal!!!

I know Im terrible arent I???!!! But since school went back I have been trying to be really good!! I have been out walking everyother day with some mums from school and I finally got the baby seat on the back of the bike and have attempted riding with my little princess!! I have found that with Mishy being such and active little lady that strapping her into a pram or bike two days in a row is a no go!!!! The screaming is enough to put you off for days! lol

Seeing as the wedding is now only 4 weeks away ( I thought the wedding was in May but its in March, May / March they both start with M!! lol ) I had to buy another dress (what a shame) it should arrive in another week or 2, its from America and the picture was gorgeous so Im hoping that I love the dress when it gets here as much as I love the picture!! Hubby says to bad if I dont I still gotta wear it! lol

Oh, last time I was here I was contemplating the wall opposite my kitchen wasnt I?! Well I decided on a great colour called Studio Grey by Dulux, its actually an outdoor colour but it looks wonderful inside aswell!! I have turned the wall into a photo wall with all the pictures in white frames, looks rather dramatic I thought! lol

I will try to not neglect my blog for so long and thanks to A-M and Chantelle for posting comments on previous entries! xxxxxx

Okay, so I'm not the most avid blogger, me thinks I prefer to read blogs than do my own. But I will persevere and maybe I will get the hang of it one day!! LOL

School holidays is over and boy am I glad about that!! The kids were getting on my and each others nerves by the end of it. Heaven help me when we get the looooong summer break, it might just kill me!!!

I finally received my copy of BodyTrim in the mail yesterday so starting Friday - I will be doing that!! Wish me luck!! I have a few friends that do it and they have done really well, so I'm hoping it will be the same for me. And why Friday you ask, well I have to watch the DVDs yet and do the shopping for it so Friday sounds good to me!! LOL

I'm trying to decide on a new colour for the wall opposite my kitchen, its currently green which I'm sooo over, I was thinking grey, but not sure on that either! I have plenty of brown walls around my house but I don't think I need anymore of those!!! What do you think???

Tired

Oh I am sooo tired today, my little missy decided that sleep was not her priority last night so I'm a rather grumpy mumma today!!! We went away for the weekend to my hubby's grandparents in Walpole which is a 4 hour drive!! Those 4 hours seemed to take forever with 3 kids in the back of the car!!! I am still trying to get over it!! LOL

I found some gorgeous lights a few months ago on eBay, they where a chandelier with a black shade around them ( you know what I mean) and they were just divine but I thought no I wont buy them as I don't need them but I sulked for awhile about it cause I really did love them! Then hubby tells me the other day, you should buy that light you really loved!! So I hop onto eBay and........they don't sell them anymore! That will teach me!! Oh well I guess it wasn't meant to be!! ( Darn it!! ) LOL
