Hi all and welcome to my minti page.... I apologise in advance if I ramble on as I am very new to this "blogging" thing... I will try and update as often as possible (no promises on how often though.....)

Hope everyone enjoyed christmas!!! I know I did, until the afternoon hit and Dru decided that he was a big boy and didn't need to have a sleep!!! My gosh did he throw the biggest tantrum   I have ever seen!!! Makes you feel like a fantastic mother when your child does that in front of the family or heaven forbid in the general public!!!

We have tried to keep the shopping outings to a very minimum as he is at that horrible selfish age, that he wants everything and when you say no it is like the end of the world as we know it for him, so of course the tears start and the screaming, then all the old ladies walk past, and you can just feel the daggers going into the back of your head as if to say what the hell were you thinking bringing a child here.. as much as people try to say that they are child friendly, when it comes down to it, they are not and it is highly frustrating!!!

I don't know about anyone else but we used to enjoy going out for a meal and a movie before Dru came along, and as all things change when you have children (as you would expect) everything seems to have come to a ccomplete stand still in the way of dining out etc for us due to an enormous lack of child friendly places... so for the time being we just remai home bodies and entertain at home, that way we can put Dru to bed when he needs to and he has all of his own toys and things to play with.... and maybe when all of the kids have come and gone, we might start dining out again.... although I must say I am enjoying the entertaining at home as well...
