This is what you looked like when you were born:

The amazingness of Boobah! 2008-04-09 03:01:00 **As copied from my blog**
On Monday, I did my Bad Mommy Homework, and one of the questions I had to answer was "Something you are struggling with presently that I wish I could help you with:". This was my answer "Walking! I wish you would just walk now so you can go where you want to, when you want to, for however long you want to. I can't stand the frustration you have to endure because you
Penace for ignoring BOBM 2008-04-09 01:59:00 I think my negligence has finally caught up with me.
I am sick and The Pickle isn't.
This means there is a reversal of power in my home.
*me sneezing and coughing and looking horrid*
"Morning my Pickle," I mumble making a beeline for the coffee.
"Morning Mammo!" she chirrups happily. "Riaan and me are going to have pinano lessons today!!"[could someone shoot her now].
"Oh that is good my

Tell us what you worried about most while you were pregnant or just after the birth of your baby. Then tell us what the best advice was that you recieved with regard to that particular issue, and who gave it.
Now, as a veteran, what parenting advice would you give Read more:Homework
Its Waaaay too Quiet Round Here! 2008-04-17 00:51:00 I would like to ask a question... I know its not my turn, but I was wondering about something.
How do you talk to your kidlets about losing their pets? Especially given how attached we get to our animals.
I recently had to put my very old cat to sleep as he was getting poorly and wasn't happy. I was more fond of him than Damien was, but he was heartsore. This was the first time I had ever had Read more:Quiet
Right. An update. 2008-04-21 04:53:00 'Sup!
So, Exmi has asked me to babysit this here blog. I don't actually think she knows what she's doing giving me permissions and all, but hey - I will try not abuse it. Even though I'm locked out of my own blog. She's a lawyer lady, so has a major thesis on the go, and is busy busy busy. Lets give her a round of applause for hard work, ladies!
I propose a new homework task. Each mother Read more:Right
A Mamameea Assignment... 2008-04-22 10:19:00 I worried about very little- physically that is- during my pregnancy.
I don't remember having nightmares about a stillbirth or a miscarriage or anything like that.
Maybe it was because I was practically still a kid myself, but the nightmares I could have had didn't occur to me. Like worrying about whether my baby would be whole or healthy... I just took it for granted that he would be.

When I Was Knocked Up... 2008-04-23 05:01:00 the things I worried about were:
haemmorhoids - I'd heard about then, all other mothers had warned me about 'the grapes of wrath' and I was told they were inevitable. Thank god, they actually weren't inevitable. At least not for me. I never got to experience the wonders of bits of my colon protruding from me bumhole.
constipation - apparently another one of the beautiful side effects of
Ten Reasons Why I Want to Raise My Child In South Africa 2008-05-09 01:09:00 With all the hoohah and constant questioning of my choices (Why don't you go to the UK? You know, it's safer there...) and the occasional self-questioning (am I a bad parent for staying here when I could go to allegedly safer countries to raise my child?), I thought it time i list a few reasons why, currently - maybe not forever, but right now, I choose to raise my child in SouthAfrica

My Darling Boy 2008-05-08 16:04:00 You are driving me insane.
You're breaking rules and laws and I don't know what to do to how to handle it.
I want to curl up and go to sleep... or ignore everything that's going on and pretend it never happened.
Letting you carry on and do what you like regardless would be so much easier than trying to fix it or change your behaviour.
I can't do this alone my darling Damien, you need to pull
Happy [Bad] Mothers' Day! 2008-05-11 06:36:00 On account of how it's a day for us, I hope you all got spoiled. Hope your rotten, ungrateful snot-nosed children remembered and made you feel special.
I thought it would be time we all did some homework again. But something different. Something a little more exciting. Something with a promise of reward, at the end of the day. So, I propose a 'Baddest Mommy of Them All' competition.

The Baddest of a Pretty Bad Bunch 2008-05-16 04:57:00 So I like to think I'm pretty bad. I like to think I'm pretty hardcore. But a soggy, toothless smile from my 6 month old son totally melts my cold heart. It was, as most of you know, an unplanned pregnancy. I'd previously thought I was pro-abortion. Turns out, I was mistaken. Sometimes I regret that choice. Other times not. They say that becoming a mother teaches you patience. I say not. I'm no Read more:Bunch

Some homework from me at last... 2008-06-09 07:48:00 Hello Ladies,
I am emerging from my lovely vomit hued cocoon of work and readjusting to married life to fill everyone in on the daily soap opera. I can't remember when last my life felt "normal", can't remember my last unmedicated day, can't figure out where bliss became chaos and I became a slightly shorter and less attractive version of the incredible hulk. Running the risk of offendin

Milestones 2008-06-13 08:42:00 I had some news this week that a friend of mines 14 year old daughter had her first real kiss. I was thrilled in the way only a close friend, but not the actual mom can be.
This got me thinking about milestones and the bitter-sweet feelings they bring with them.
Ciara has physically been an incredibly easy child to mother.
She day-time potty trained so well, and potty trained herself during
The worst mama ever . . . . 2008-06-18 03:43:00 So, it goes like this. I fetch Ciara from aftercare at school yesterday and she is crying. I immediately ask her whats wrong, like the good momma I thought I was, and she tells me she fell and hurt her wrist.
So I ask her if it is sore when she moves it, must we go to the hospital or does she think she will be okay. She tells me that it is REALLY sore. I am getting really frustrated, because
