Due in August 2009

Aahhh, 2011 is gonna be my year too Tanya! Did I mentioned I've gone off the pill? Don't go getting all excited though. I was having some reactions to it and have told DH he better get used to condoms between now and June. Plus, even if I do get pregnant now I would still be able to travel to Hawaii....

I've never HAD such a reaction. Went off the mini pill onto the regular one and it took me awhile to figure out what I thought was wrong. Tired, nauseous after eating and often at random times, weight gain, headaches. Was horrible. Even took a pregnancy test to make sure I wasn't just UTD.

Just stopped the other day and already feeling soooo much better. Me and extra hormones are NOT the best of friends apparently...

Oh and MY year!

I've gone off contraception too... just went and bought folic acid tablets. Too stingy this time to get Elevit so just bought generic folic acid. DH is already calling it Baby Hand me Down!

Lee - if you need somewhere to stop for a break etc let us know...

MC - so jealous of your weekend down in Timaru... Come on peeps, surely some of you want to visit Taupo?

Haha! Take that as credit to you Pekay! Actually, I must confess, I quite enjoyed my year in Timaru...

Now, we made a conscious decision to come and live here, and we really really love it, but even I just about spat out my tea at reading the words "jealous of your weekend down in Timaru"!

Um, special toy - nope. There are toys he seems to enjoy all the time, like his big Tonka truck, or the telephone or remote control, but no toy he has formed an attachment to. He has the same seahorse as Alex, but he never slept with it (he would roll onto it, turn it on and wake up) and once the last lot of batteries ran down we never replaced them.

We've been invited out to a friends bbq tonight but tbh it's more work taking a tired toddler than I can be arsed to worry about, they have offered a portacot but I just see it as being overtiredtoddler.com, so, early family fish and chips, a trip to the bay if he's doing OK to see a niece in the beauty pageant thing, and if he's either still doing OK or asleep we will go onto the bbq and play it by ear. Previous new years have been spent either ridiculously drunk with a big crowd of boaties over Gt Barrier Island or asleep on the couch (talk about contrasts).

Oh, and it's gonna be MY year too

Happy New Years Eve everyone!

Hey Bex, did you name Gus yourself? I bought a Gus before G was born and named it Gus and now I have just randomly noticed that yours is called Gus too, but that is'n't the seahorses actual name, can you remember where you got it from, maybe we think crazy alike!!!!! Gus is our away from home toy (portacot), lately G is super into Zebra's and her My Little Pony from Christmas....don't know if she necessarily couldn't go without one or the other though, she does have a pooh bear at school for sleep time and home....

Anyhoo, injections went okay, screamed like a banshee for each but calmed pretty quickly (maybe within a minute for each), haven't had any temps yet.....and we are not going to and seems like that was that. She is completely awesome right at the moment, so giggly and cuddly and just scrumptious!!!!!! I love well babies

We were invited out tonight too, but might just drop in, then come home and watch some lame TV.

I have also decided that I need to go back on stupid sureslim so that I can lose around 15kgs, then I will be happy, will see how that goes though......

happy new year girls

Go on, dare ya.

Happy new years everyone. Hope all had a good night.

We had a blissful fish and chip picnic and bubbly on the lake followed by a fabulously early night and were woken by the fireworks and midnight!

What are you thinking of studying Aquarius? I've toyed with doing something else but don't know what...

Happy new year guys. I won't be one of those predictions this year. We do talk about it though so are going to start trying around mid next year. Mine and Steven's reasons are a) due to finishing his degree and b) we want Imogen to be a bit bigger. Hey but if it accidentally happened now I wouldn't be upset

Oh no Tanya!
