A Knucklehead Update!!! 2008-06-24 11:03:00 Well, my darling Damien is currently on the South African three week long, winter school holiday.
Oh joy (Damien's current favourite saying)...
A bored Damien is never a good thing- he has not yet found a job, his friends are not within walking distance, and I have not yet replaced/ refilled my fire extinguishers (yes I know- I'm a bad mommy), I just haven't got around to it!
He's just finished Read more:Update
sweets update 2008-06-24 03:35:00 Concerta turned out to be a kind of a blessing and a curse all mixed together in a white tablet to be taken once a day, with breakfast :)
it's about two weeks now that Kay's on the medication and although I'm trying soooooo hard to be negative about this... so i can just tell his doc..... sorry this drug is just not for my kid ok!?
sigh
it's kind of working... wonders

The Kid Update 2008-06-22 09:39:00 My absence has been inexcusable.
Let me fill you in on what's happening with The Kid:
He has one tooth. One at the bottom. It's partner is taking so long to come through. He was completely miserable throughout. He now bites me. Often. Little snot.
He has discovered how to leopard crawl. You know, dragging himself along the floor by his arms. He's exploring everything, pulling the curtains, the Read more:Update

what i didn't realise was that i was due to raise these two beasts alone, that was kind of a deal
Angel's Bad Mommy Homework... 2008-07-09 02:11:00 …write a post explaining when it is that you most feel like a mother. And when it is that you don’t. When did you first realise that you were somebody's mother?
Hhmmm… this took some thinking lemme tell you bunnies! And I tried not to read anyone else’s posts till I had done mine… though it was tempting when I was wracking my empty brain!
When do (or did) I NOT feel like a mother.

Introducing me 2008-07-06 15:06:00 PS! For those with readers, sorry for all the edits, it kept losing my breaks! So, I've redone the post, hopefully it works this time.
OK, here goes... my first contribution to this blog. I don't know a lot of you on here, so here's a bit about me first...I'm Jeanette (now known as Jenty). I have 2 blogs, one is a photography blog, and the other is an outlet for me to vent.

Feeling Bad 2008-07-04 02:36:00 Okay, I know every mother goes through this, and I know it's not the end of the world, but I am feeling a little [okay, a LOT] guilty. Today is The Kid's first time at day care. It feels like I'm admitting that I'm not capable of looking after my own child by myself. Not capable of being a mother, because I have commitments other than my child. The first draft of my thesis is due on the 18th of Read more:Feeling
Well hello there, pleased to meet you 2008-07-03 04:49:00 I have been invited to join the Bad Mommies, and I can't pretend that I am not super-excited about it.
So here goes - my first piece of Bad Mommy homework...
1. Post a picture of your kid.
Jackson James. He was only three months old in this photo, but, to this day, it is still one of my most favourite pictures of him.
2. Tell us all 3 things we wouldn't know about you.

The Stork Has Visited One of Our Bad Mommies...[Again] 2008-07-02 03:18:00 If you've all been wondering where MamaMeeA is... well, she's been hatching herself a new baby boy.
Due in October. She's taken a bit of a break from blogging to deal with all the overwhelmingness of it all, and hopes to return soon.
In the mean time I thought everyone would like to know, so they can wish her well! Read more:Stork

It's All Been One Expensive Mistake 2008-07-01 01:15:00 I have this theory, and it seems to pan out mostly. Unplanned pregnancies have an effect on the way you feel toward your child. Women who plan their pregnancies are grateful for them, switch automatically into mothering mode, and seem to relish their new role. I also think that the kind of birth you have, affects your relationship with your child. Now my pregnancy was definitely unplanned and I Read more:Mistake
Does It Ever Really Sink In? 2008-06-30 00:16:00 I have a friend who is a very new mother. Her baby boy was born last Tuesday. She has been battling like I never imagined possible. Seemingly no natural maternal instincts, no idea of what can harm her baby.
It may seem judgmental to say that. And you might think that it's the pot calling the kettle black, and I wish I could help her, but her and her boyfriend seem to be refusing help. Which is
3 things that could be frowned upon 2008-07-24 14:43:00 The question for the week: What 3 things
do you do, as a mother, that goes against all the books?
Here are mine:
1. Kids get chips, or whatever is readily available, to eat to tide them over until dinner is ready. My mom would NEVER have done that! The problem is that I can never get home early enough to have supper ready in time, and I'd rather they not scream the place down while I'm
These I Can't Do... 2008-07-23 04:15:00 It's late, sorry... but since I have been wracking my brain about what to put on this here list of 7-mommy-related-simply-can't-do-things, I am going to post it no matter what!
Naturally as Damien gets older, it gets easier and easier to do things I couldn’t do before… So I’m going to go back in time, and jump around a little, to things I couldn’t do before but can do now and vice-versa. A
7 things I can no longer do now that I'm a mommy 2008-07-22 14:11:00 I know I'm a bit late, but here's my homework for last week! I'll post this week's homework tomorrow night.
Ummm, this ended up being more difficult than I thought it would be.
1. Go to the loo without having an audience! Just when the oldest one stopped being fascinated by me on the loo, I went and had another child!
2. Do crafts. I went to the most wonderful fabric painting classes on Read more:things
The Shoes 2008-07-22 04:12:00 Dear Cameron, As you grow (and my word, you are growing so fast and so awesomely), you have one element of life as a girl of which I am so proud and yet, it is so very tiring. You, my girl, from your earliest days, have been and always will be, a shoe fetishist. The good kind though, you do not demand the purchase of a million pairs of shoes all at once. The good kind is the type where you LIKE a
7 Wonders of the Motherhood bubble... 2008-07-17 14:44:00 So many crazy things come to mind, but, time being what it is with a four year old, here is my brief list:
I can no longer....
1. Swear like a sailor, I love swearing... it's like punctuation of the spoken word, unfortunately my daughters first recognisable phrase was "naughty damnit" which put my favourite phrases into hibernation faster than a good zip.

Seven things i cannot do since i became a mommy 2008-07-17 10:01:00 It is in my opinion that although we feel we are super moms sometimes there are a few things
i can no longer do or perhapes CHOOSE no longer to do.
1. Sleep with my door locked. Now although this is done when mom and dad have some fun, it is unlocked at all other times. I want to get to them quickly and need to know they can get to me if need be.
2. Go shopping for clothes: and evan though Read more:Seven

seven things i cannot do since i became a mama... 2008-07-17 04:49:00 1. Not be a kidlet person. I was the worst type of kidlet person. I could never understand why or how ANYONE would want to have a snot-nosed brat. Never mind two. Or god and heavens above, three, four or any number of them. Nowadays, you can't pass me in the street without me wanting to peer into your bundled package of cuteness.

now that you're a parent.
Number one: IGNORE THE KIDS WHEN THEY SAY THEY'RE HUNGRY...i hate cooking... i really do... so when I've dragged myself into the kitchen after working the whole day, cooking is just not at the top of my list for fun relaxing things... i cook, i serve, we eat, seconds anybody? ...then I
I Just Can't 2008-07-16 11:21:00 I am incapable of doing the following, since having The Kid...
1.... eating glazed donuts. Have you seen a snotty kids' face? The resemblance of said snotty child's face to a glazed donut is disgustingly alike.
2. ...pretending not to notice how, when other mommies walking their babies in prams past me, stare into my pram and have a look at my kid. I know, he's gorgeous. Dont be jealous. It's

Seven things I am incapable of doing now I am a parent: 2008-07-15 04:52:00 1. See a new baby without getting all idiotically smiley and giggly.
2. Get through the day without saying at least three things
no human being should ever have to say. For example: "No, Jackson, cat kibble does not belong up your nose."
3. Hear any sad child-related news story without sobbing big sobby tears.

being a mother 2008-07-11 11:00:00 ...write a post explaining when it is that you most feel like a mother
. And when it is that you don't. When did you first realise that you were somebody's mother?
Right now, I feel most like a mother when my kids are experiencing significant emotional hardships - the kind of things only a mom's insight can help them through.

Discipline 2008-08-06 01:23:00 Discipline. It’s that quintessential life principle that gets drummed into us from day bloody one. I need you to know this before I continue, I hate rules. I loathe being told “no, you can’t do that”. So, when it comes to discipline, I battle. But, as life has grown me up and made me think about things over and over again, I’ve developed and stick to my own set of rules. For that, I blam Read more:Discipline
To Pet or not to Pet . . . 2008-08-05 06:34:00 I honestly don't think a pet gives children any sense of responsibility at all. Unless you insist they feed said pet, and then said pet would die because said child would not feed said pet. Then said child would cry and said parent could say "Well you obviously aren't responsible for a pet yet, are you?". Said parent would be a bit of an ass though, wouldn't they?

What 3 things do you do, as a mother that goes against all the books?
Well, since I’m a stickler for the rules (as most of you know) like adhering to movie and PS2 game age restrictions… proper bedtimes, and obeying legal issues like not being allowed in the front seat till you’re 12, always wearing a seatbelt and sticking to the speed limit… there’s not much I do that’s not b
The Necessity of Pets 2008-08-03 10:10:00 So Yndic asked about pets - what you think about them, and the role your child must play in the new family members' life.
The Kid has a puppy. The Kid is 8 months old. And yes, he has a pet. His name is Earl.
The Kid loves this damn dog. Even though I'm battling to house-train this freaking furball. Even though he chews holes in The Boyfriends underpants. Even though he chews everything he Read more:Necessity
