Australia Day 2011

January 27th, 2011 Posted in Announcements

Well like usual im a day behind the times, but yesterday was Australia Day. I had the kids but we didn’t go anywhere. I was so tired and they were in a feral mood so we just stayed home. Watched some tv, built towers, done colouring in, and made a huge mess! Girls were in bed and asleep by 930….late yes..but earlier then normal! unlike Master Z who crashed by 810!

Less then 12 hours to go!

January 14th, 2011 Posted in Announcements

Its hard to think that this time 2 years ago i was preparing dinner for the last time as a mummy of 2 girls!

My little man is going to be 2 tomorrow, he is no longer my baby but my big toddler who amazes me every day. He has started talking so much more and is becoming very affectionate with lot of kisses and cuddles.

He has really come out of his shell since the girls have been staying with Craig. Opened up alot more and become his own person and really evolved 🙂

2010…a year in review!

January 11th, 2011 Posted in Announcements
January: We started off with health checkups for the kids, all went really well. Zachery also hit the big ONE! How fast the year flew. My little man went from a newborn to a toddler over night…well so it felt anyhow! I had a little party for him and made him a Bumblebee cake.
February: For the past 10 months Craig and i had been TTC #4.  After a long stressful time, we finally got our BFP. I was over joyed to finally see those 2 lines at last. We also were set for a 2 night mini break in QLD while Kathy looked after the kids. Sadly, on 16th whilst in NSW, the pains began. Off i went to JHH to be told that my baby had a very low heart beat and would end in miscarriage. It was a matter of when. I woke on the morning on 17Th to even more blood and ‘contractions’. By 11am i felt like i was leaking and rushed to the toilet. That’s when i passed my baby. My little Raindrop was no longer able to fight for life. My Melanae Lily grew her wings. I was 6w5d along. We still flew to QLD but it wasn’t enjoyable. All i wanted was my baby back 🙁
Chelsea also began ‘school’ AKA as ABC. She was in the pre kinder room. She loved going!
March:We headed off to Casey kids carnival. It was a hot day and was pretty boring. Instead we took the kids to Lollipops. The kids had a blast. Well, until jasmine fell and hurt her ankle and couldn’t walk on ut. I ended up having to take her to Casey hospital to get checked out. All was OK! March also seen Melanae’s name written in the sand.
April: Kathy came down to visit and we took the kids to Melbourne Aquarium. They had the penguins there and the kids loved them alot. Not alot else happened in this month.
May: We booked our P&O cruise for August!! At 16 months old Zachery FINALLY began walking!! We had waited so long and he finally took off. Not everything was good news in May however. Whilst on our way to a kids party, a guy ran up our arse. Our car was eventually written off and the new car search began. I also had many trips to the doctor to find out why i was not falling pregnant (and when i did, why i miscarried). It was revealed i had hyperthyroidism. We also got a new drier off Cheyne as a thank you gift.
June: We got a new car. Its a white Ford 2005 model sedan. Lovely to drive too, much better then the bomb we had. I began my weight loss journey to loose as much as i can!
July: Craig and i celebrated 4 years of marriage. Our GPS was stolen from our car. Sadly the month ended with a call from mum to say Uncle Vin had, had a stroke and was in hospital.
August: Voting took place for our new PM. Craig and i sailed off on our cruise, while Kathy watched the 3 terrors back home. The cruise was devine. We had a great time and missed the kids alot. I would love to do another one in the future
September: Girl power has taken over. Julia Gillard was elected as our new Prime Minister. I also applied for University doing a Bachelor of Nursing. I have to wait til January 2011 to see if i got in or not. We also took a trip to Renee’s for 2 weeks.
October: While i was in NSW, Craig came back home as he had to work. Pixie and Dexter were re homed, well, i hope they were, Craig took them to RSPCA. 8Th October was a hard day for me. It was the day i remembered Melanae. She would have been born that date (give or take). Instead i was empty, no newborn, no kicks and no baby breath or eyes looking back at me. Jasmine turned 3. As if dealing with Melanae’s loss wasnt hard enough, i also lost Uncle Vin on the 27th. He just couldn’t hold on any longer and he too, grew his wings.
November: On 5Th the family said Good Bye to Uncle Vin as he was laid to rest. I didn’t go to the funeral, but i was there in spirit. Miss Chelsea turned 4. Such a big girl now!
December: Well just as the year couldn’t get any worse, a bombshell was thrown to family and friends. Craig and i separated. He went to live with Cheyne, whilst i stayed in our home. He then found his own place in Pakenham. Christmas was hard, he took them to his families place and i spent it alone. New years was spent at home with a few friends.

Im so happy!

December 28th, 2010 Posted in Announcements

Well its been a bit of a shit year…some good times, and alot of bad times too.

But the past week I’ve realised just how short life is, and have started enjoying it! Since the kids have been away, I’ve been able to sit down and relax (mummy friends will understand how difficult that is when kids are involved), and think abut the future. I have been able to catch up with friends, go to the movies, go shopping and sleep in.

I’m loving the single life, and the freedom i have. Its been a huge change and I’m LOVING life alot. I have new friends that i can now hang out and socialise with, something I’ve never really been able to do.

I have new single mummy friends too!

NYE will be spent with Kirsten and Shari…and their 2 boys. I’m excited and cant wait, will be an awesome night 🙂

Merry Christmas!

December 24th, 2010 Posted in Announcements

I would like to wish all my gorgeous friends and family a very Merry Christmas and a happy and safe 2011.

Christmas this year is a little odd. Craig has taken my babies to his mums house, whilst i stay home….Alone. I plan to spend my day with Shari, a lady i met via BB who has a son and no family in Australia. Should be a good day.

Sunday I’m off to the movies with Christine 🙂

A new chapter is beginning

December 19th, 2010 Posted in Announcements

Well the time has come. Craig and i have both agreed things are not going to work and my happiness is a priority. We have now called it a day and gone our own ways. We are the very best are friends and always well be. It has been an amazing 5 years, we have been through so much, but we cant carry on.

He has found a lovely brand new rental in Pakenham, so only 10-15 mins away so still able to visit. Starting next year he will also have them stay 3 nights every 2nd weekend to give me a break.

Break time

December 15th, 2010 Posted in Announcements

Whilst i don’t usually post very personal things on my blog, this time i am going to. Mainly cos it affects me as a whole and something i will look back on in 6-12 months time and either say it was the right choice, or a very big mistake.

What I’m talking about is my marriage situation. Craig and I are currently separated. This came as a huge shock to both our friends and family. I wont post details, but i will say it was myself who asked for the break. I needed to be on my own (well add 3 kids and 3 cats into the mix).

So far so good. I’m handling it well. i have my days with the kids where i think its all to hard, but i plough on and get through the day and night. The kids are slowly adjusting to the change of not having daddy here (who is staying with Cheyne at the moment and seeking a rental). He comes to visit for family dinner night on a Wednesday, and sees them 1-2 times through the week in the day time if he is in the area or needs to drop round for something.

I have a lot to think about over the coming months, and i hope i can get the right choice made!

That’s all i wish to post about right now 🙂
