Hi red_dragon. probably the best you missed it. Ella and Josh may have made you excited about children, but the rest of them would have probably put you off (no offence Andrew - but you and Jake are EXHAUSTING!).
Taine peed in the corner, and the proceeded to take off his pants and run to the duck pond. Andie - bet you are hoping this bub is a girl@! |

hehehe that sounds rather amusing actually!
Sorry I didn't make it. FIL decided he simply must fix a pipe under our house and it must be done today so they were here for a while and I had to "supervise" to make sure they didn't do a crap job at it. *rolls eyes* |

He he... so funny, cause people have been making comments to me and a friend with a daughter about how they boys will erm, leave you a little more 'well-rounded'... well, we thought this is rubbish but now I'm wondering...! Ah, they're fiesty but it'll serve them well at school! And yep, Janine - it was the sneakiest of pregnancy announcements! This one's due in Jan Welcome, Charla! Nice to have a new face here - you're very welcome at the next Palmy meet-up, whenever that may be, and keep an eye out for the locals on here... we're lurking all over the site these days! ------------- Andie |

Hello, do you guys have regular meet-ups? I am newly returned to Palmy after not living here for 15 years, we are here for just a couple of years before returning to Brisbane.
I am Jo, I have a beautiful 3 3/4 year old (going on 13 it seems like!) and a 13 month little boy. We hope to have one more once my oldest starts school. I am 34. Always keen to meet Mums to have a coffee and chat with. Maybe lollypops land could be a good place for a meet since the weather is so lovely... |

Stacey - looks like we're the only ones! I was actually thinking of taking my 2 there next week to get in before the school hols because I've been promising my daughter for ages. Let me know if you're keen.
Lizzle - I think its a bit too busy and too many big kids for the littlies in the school hols (with the holiday programmes etc) but I'm always keen for somewhere else :) The other thing I quite like doing on a Wednesday is library storytime and there's the cafe just below. If anyone ever wants to meet up let me know. |

Lollypops is 25 Matipo Street, which is one of the roads of Rangitikei Line opposite QEC. I guess around 10ish, I'll pm a way to identify those that are going maybe closer to the time?
Charla, I'd be happy to take you but not sure if bub will fit in the middle of a booster and a carseat, assume you have a capsule? Maybe we could try it sometime in advance? |
