Thank you Nicci, I forgot all about my blog and then forgot how to get into it and then also forgot my password!

Firstly, congrats to all the expectant mom's that are out there! My sister-in-law is due in June and she is having a little girl - very exciting. I am finished though, kids are expensive. Taylor is going to be 11 this year and has started writing exams. This means that myself or Craig are helping her studying, it becomes pretty tiring when you are trying to help her and then run after a 2 year old that is writing on the couch etc etc. Big gaps are not as easy as what people may think it is. Taylor is at the age where it is music and friends and High School Musical and dvd's and parties and Adrienne is at the age where she wants my undivided attention and wants Mom to lie and watch Barney with her. I love my girls though, they totally complete my life! I cannot imagine life without them!

I am happy tha tomorrow is Friday - I have absolutely no plans for the weekend except for a braai at my Dad on Sunday! Taylor wrote her last exam today so I am sure that she will be at friends this weekend!

I hope that Joshua's party goes off well Nicci - cant wait to see all the photo's.....

Hello

After reading blogs for hours last night, I decided to give this a bash myself! Not sure how often I will get to it but will try - should be fun for my family oversea's especially.

Craig is working shifts now so once the girls were in bed, I read blogs dating back to 2006. Armed with a cup of tea and some biscuits, I laughed at Wendy's blogging on becoming a mom and then trying to lose the baby weight and seeing plenty photo's of Lily growing (our kids seem to be a month apart), loved reading Nicci's blog, enjoyed the fact that Nicola's little Dylan was throwing tantrums and it is not just my child that does it! Then it was Susan's blog and Veronica's blog! What a wonderful read, I went to bed very much relaxed!

Not sure how this all works but will call on Nicci if I get stuck (hope you dont mind)

I will send a big welcome to Luca Paliaga while I am here. He was born the 17th of January 2009, weighing 3 kilos and just as beautiful as his mom and as handsome as his dad. There are just so many beautiful baby boys around at the moment!

Hope everyone is having a good, relaxing weekend......
