Busy Busy Busy! 2008-03-20 18:43:42 Totally shattered as we’ve been busy rearranging our living room today. We got a gorgeous new sofa yesterday and realized that it didn’t *quite* fit in the initial place we’d been going to put it, cue a complete move around of everything in our living room!
I’ll have pics up at the weekend of our new [...]
Photohunt: Metal 2008-03-22 11:53:56 My engagement ring and J’s wedding ring. J’s is made out of titanium metal and mine is white gold. I can’t believe it’s over 3 years now since we exchanged these!
My wedding ring doesn’t fit at the moment so I can only wear my engagement ring. I blame Zack of course - after having him [...] Read more:Photohunt

Hai, it’s Easter already?! 2008-03-21 09:34:23 Easter already?
How can that be right?! We’re still
in March aren’t we??
Oh well, I suppose
shouting Happy Easter is
in order today?
I’ve got to admit
we’re not a religious lot-
no celebrating…
Well, maybe an egg
or two, we’ll see. Zack doesn’t
know any diff’rent!
What do you do when
Easter swings round? Family
round, a feast maybe? Read more:Easter
Birth stories galore! 2008-03-24 09:45:08 so i called the hospital and they said to take some paracetamol and have a bath...an hr later contractions coming every 1.5 min and lasting over a min... with the usual advice being when they get to less than 5 minutes between and over a minute long to get to the hospital, I figured with the pain I was in I must be progressing pretty fast and to see about getting my butt up to the hospital asap, at least to be checked over.
I got to the hospital at about 9am ish, and it took the mw about an hr for the mw to actually check me over - they were understaffed and had LOTS of babies coming into the world...what were we all doing 9 months ago???
Weekly Winners #13 2008-03-23 09:19:39 This week we got out Max’s first proper toy that he’d received for Christmas from my parents. He’s even been bashing away at the top of it - not bad for a 5 monther eh!
He’s also figured out how to lean over while sitting on the sofa
AND he’s been catching his toes!
Then on Wednesday we [...] Read more:Weekly

Just! Too! Tired… 2008-03-26 16:19:07 It’s the eve of my birthday, you’d think I’d be more excited than I am, but you know what? All I want to do is S.L.E.E.P. I’m sooo tired and I have no idea why. Well, ok it might be something to do with only having had about 4-5 hours of (broken! Thanks Maximus…) sleep [...]
I have written a post today… 2008-03-25 18:50:03 …it’s just not on this blog! If you *really* want to see how geeky I am you can find it here. Have fun laughing at me, but I haven’t missed a day yet and we’re almost a 3rd of the way through Blog365 so there!

Oh god no… why now!? 2008-03-29 14:50:48 I’m guessing I won’t have been the only WP-self-hosted-bloggy person to see the ominous “A new version of Wordpress is available!” in their dashboard. Am I the only one who thinks it’s mocking them.. I mean using an exclamation mark like it’s a fun thing to do having to upgrade the whole damn thing. I! [...]
Hai, kud you pass me the pie? 2008-03-28 10:08:59 Am eating apple
when all of a sudden, a
little hand grabs it!
Tasty stuff mummy!
I could get used to chewing
on these yummy things.
Every time I took
it away, he’d scream for it -
grumpy boy he is!
Back soon… 2008-03-31 15:21:15 too busy to post…
Busy day, inlaws over to visit for the first time since Max was born. Too sleepy! Plus I was up til about 4am last night upgrading to 2.5 on my blogs and tweaking a few things… silly me!
Weekly Winners #14 2008-03-30 10:20:20 Zack’s first proper Easter Egg
My Easter Bunny was tasty!
Max was happy to pose as usual…
… however Zack was not so amused at being interrupted!
Max was really enjoying my apple (and I did eat the rest of it despite the baby spit!)
and that was my week!
Still not actually updated to WP2.5 yet *shudders* I will do [...] Read more:Weekly

Thirteen things I wanted to be or do when I was growing up. 2008-04-03 14:19:36 To be a famous horse-rider with a stud-farm. I knew EVERYTHING about horses even though I never had a lesson.
To be a vet. Same as above for pretty much most animals!
I wanted
to be a singer. I loved singing in the school choir, unfortunately my lack of any sort of singing in the past 5 [...] Read more:Thirteen

Oops he did it again! 2008-04-02 17:41:13 Yes, my darling little eejit Zack managed to faceplant himself into another hard surface today, hitting his head in the same place *sigh* what am I going to do with him?!
I have to inform you that I said to J I wished it ahd been the other side so I could have got a pic [...]
Silly Boy! 2008-04-01 10:15:55 So Zack only went and walked right into the edge of our bookcase today!
A few cuddles, some sweeties and a dash of whiskey later and he’s all good

Photohunt - Glass 2008-04-05 13:41:58 Really original I’m sure. Har Har! Living in a house with a toddler and a baby means we don’t have much glass around, and what we DO have is in need of a damn good clean first! So my glasses will have to do for this week!

Too Kute! 2008-04-04 07:47:57 Uncle and nephew,
having so much fun with each
other. Wish it could last!
Time to leave and tears
were had, a sensitive soul
he is. Come back soon!
I did it again! 2008-04-07 17:18:02 No post here, but one up at the geek blog, there’s a linky/RSS type thing to it down the sidebar if you’re really desperate to read my inane wanderings through a game… I know, I know. It’s a freakin GAME, I shouldn’t be spending time on that over my blog!! Tough!
Weekly Winners #15 2008-04-06 07:40:37 So we had a busy start to the week with the in-laws coming to visit! It was a gorgeous day so off we went to the park!

Kissing your kids 2008-04-08 13:43:03 I was browsing an old forum I was a part of while pregnant with Max and the question came up of whether or not you kiss your little ones on the lips, and I thought that would be some great blogging material so here it is!

Ku’d you pass me the choke chain? 2008-04-11 05:46:56 Our hallway needed

Zack decorated.
Twenty-five minutes!
That’s how long it took to clean
up the mess he made!
The culprit tried to
escape but no chance of that
with Daddy around!
Seriously though… what would you do to punish an almost-3-yr-old for doing something like that? I took away his games, no TV for the day, and generally [...]
