Me and My Family

My kids
My kids

I am 33, married and have 4 children.  I work full time and my hubby is Mr mum.

We have been together 10 years and married for 3. 

Our 4 children, Bethany (6), Dylan (5), Harry (2) and Liam (1mth).   

I live in Victoria, Australia all my life and have never been outside of Australia.  I love watching and playing sport.  I played netball until a recent full knee reco.  I hope to regain my fitness now I have had my baby and get  back into netball. 

I love spending time with my family and doing as much with them as I can.  I cherish all of them and can''t remember what life was like or what I did before we had children.

Getting my sanity back - I think !

Comment Published at 17:5317:530 comments0 comments32 Visits32 VisitsReport

My god I have been unorganised, tired and frazzled.  At the moment Liam is averaging 2 and a half hours during the night between feeds.  And Harry is getting his 2yr old molars so he is not sleeping well.

With all this going on and getting the 2 kids to and from school I haven't had much time to myself.  When my 2 littlies are asleep I am either ding housework, eating lunch or catching my own forty winks.

But I think I am getting orgainsed and Liam is settling a bit better during the day which will allow me to re-energise.

Harry is just loving Liam.  He dotes on all babies now he is sooo cute.  Liam gets about one hundred kisses a day from him which I am sooo happy about as I was worried about him being jealous but he is just fantastic!  He doesn't try and muscle in when I am feeding or demand attention.  I play with harry when I have finished feeding so he understands about time sharing.  He even helps when I have to change Liam and gets me the wipes and nappies, usually without even asking.

Anyway will try to keep up to date and put photos on soon.

It's a Boy!!

Comment Published at 19:2619:265 comments5 comments88 Visits88 VisitsReport

Well I finally had my baby.  His name is Liam and he was born at 11:04pm on Valentines Day (14 Feb).  He weighed around 3000gms (6 pound 10 ounces) they mucked up his birth weight so we can only guestimate.

No drugs, I surprised myself.  A 7 hour labour and all went well.  Here is a photo I will blog more details soon.  Liam is calling for food!!!

How slack have I been!

Comment Published at 18:0518:050 comments0 comments31 Visits31 VisitsReport

Hi everyone.  I am still alive and well.  I can't believe it's nearly been a month since I last blogged.

I am still waiting to have my new little person arrive.  I only have 5 days to go until the due date hopefully go before as I am ready NOW!!!  All is going well but having a little trouble getting comfy to sleep.

Been flat out the last month, My little boy started school, he looks so cute I will try and post their photo tomorrow in their uniforms!

Only one at home now and he is loving the freedom to go and do whatever he wants without the other two smothering him.  he is actually very peaceful and content by himself.  We play alot together in the morning which means his midday sleep is very good.

Have to go now and finish the housework before he wakes up.  Sorry for the laziness on Minti, hopefully the next time I am on I will have some great news!

Hot Days and Hot Nights

Comment Published at 20:2320:230 comments0 comments39 Visits39 VisitsReport

Had a couple of hot days and nights here. 25 degrees celsius last night, no air conditioning, had the fan on all night.  Uncomforatable sleep.  With four weeks to go I hope we don't have too many more nights like last night.  It is usually my hubby that roasts but at the moment it's me.

Last day of work tomorrow and then I am home with the kids for a couple of weeks before they return to school.  Dylan starts Prep this year so exciting.  At least I get to spend two weeks with them at home before bubs comes along and they start school.  I am taking them to the movies next week and Beth to a jewellery class.

I love warm days but bring me the cooler nights please.
