Sick kids

Well its only 1 day till we fly off to the states and of course we have a sick kid. yep Gabriel was at the doctors yeterday and after seeing the him we have some antibiotics and a steriod for clearing his throat. Hes a little bit better today but still grissily and clinging to me. We have finaly packed everything today and only have a few things to do tomorrow before we leave on Tuesday morning. Our wonderful neighbour is driving us to the airport at 5am ewwww!

I spoke to the older kids who are at their Grandfathers and having a great time, they went fishing yesterday but didnt go out today as it was too windy. Jasmine just about talked my ear off today but Im looking forward to seeing my girl after 3 weeks of being away. Its nice to know that she still misses her mum :)

I'll try hard to get to a computer while we are away and send some more to my spot here.

kids home, kids gone

Its been a busy day today. Xaviour was sent to Melbourne ahead of our trip overseas on Tuesday, we also had Jasmine fly back to Melbourne from her choir tour of Samoa. The tour was a resounding success with a full booking and lots of fun for the kids that went. I spent the best part of 30 minutes trying to get hold of Papa to let him know that Xaviours plane was running late but he left his phone in his car. I got to speak to Jasmine and Xaviour when they finally got back to the car. They'll have a great time there with Papa he'll spoil them a bit while they are there.
Gabriel has a nasty case of croup at the moment so the whole house smells like Eucalyptus oil from the humidifyer. He slept 3 hours this afternoon which was nice but my mummy tummy didnt like it the baby kicked up a storm after he finally woke up.
On another matter I got another letter from my ex husband yesterday whinning some more about stupid things again. You would think after 8 years he'd get a life of his own!
Only 3 more days till we fly out woohoo!

blog start

Ok so here I am finally part of the blog family. I have a number of friends who have tried to have me join them in blogging , all I kept thinking was who would want to read what I do all day? Im an average mum doing ordinary things during my day. The only excitement at the moment is our impending trip to the United States which we begin on Tuesday morning with our 3 children. I'm not sure how its going to turn out I'm getting scarred now the closer it becomes and the baby Im carrying (I'm 6 1/2 months pregnant) can feel it and kicks when I feel worried. I'm sure it will go fine it's just the fear of the unknown.
