| I would offer our house but I'm sure that's right when Daniel has to have his next lot of immunisations *pouts* and considering his bad reaction to his first lot our house will not be a pleasant place to be! |

*phew* for you Janine!!
What about Maya and Paris and Hannah? Us mums wouldn't have to do anything. "Do this" "Don't do that" "Don't touch the camera, I'll do that cause I'm older than you" etc etc all day long!!!! (ok so I'm guessing about Maya but honestly, she's 4 and she has two younger sisters haha!)------------- |

You can stay with us, though we arent in Palmy! If you get stuck tho the offer is there. We can turn the office into a bedroom and Hannah can sleep in our room. ------------- Aimee Hannah 22/10/05 Greer 11/02/08 |

| Well, our house is out - no bed and no room! BUT I'll have you guys over for tea one night if you want! will even cook dessert...and can suply copious amounts of grapefruit, lemons and mandarins. |

Don't worry, we were having you all on We ARE coming, but we don't expect any of you to have us stay, there's 6 of us, and I can't say any of the three babies have the best track records where sleep is concerned, so we're thinking a local motel, preferably one with sound-proofing, might be the best option
But we might just take you up on dinner Liz! And Becks, I posted the article today. Actually it was the whole mag coz I couldn't be bothered photocopying the article. Hope it's helpful. Will definitely organise a meet up with all of you while we're down. ------------- Maya Grace (28/02/03)

Eeek... yaaaayyyy!!! Well, if either of youse want our spare room you're welcome to it. There's a double bed with your name on it in our study, and we've got another room currently loaded up with crafty & muso stuff that will just fit a portacot! It ain't flash (you've heard my half-finished DIY-disaster house rantings before! ) but the offer's there if you need. And I'd love to have you'se all for tea too... how many dinners can you fit into your busy schedulles?!? ------------- Andie |

Know anyone who works for the Post Office or has access to Seven Away holiday homes? $160 for a week.
I'd offer you our spare room fits 2 adults and 2 kids easily, however we're in Feilding and our house isn't baby proof. If you get stuck you can crash at our place. We can get the airforce family home but that is in Bulls!  ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">   [/url] Angel June 2012 |

| okay, just thinking, would anyone be into a pot luck at my place? have to be about 5pm for tea - but that means we can share the girls a wee bit more. our place is small, but probably do-able and I figure we'll have a meet up during one of the days anyway, so not everyone would feel like they had to come or miss out on seeing our ladies. anyone keen? |
