hi sorry I've not posted anything sooner but Ive had a bad time over Christmas and new year everybody keeps telling me that's normal if someone gave me a plane ticket in the weeks running up to Christmas i would have gone back to England i think I'm getting over that now and look forward to what 2009 has to offer its not been that good so far we have had nothing but bad luck so far but it can only get better .
CHRISTMAS DAY
on Christmas day we spent it at home just us and the BBQ me and the kids were in our PJ'S until about 2 o clock the kids were really good they only got up at 8.30 and wouldn't open there presents until i got up witch was really good of them the only thing was when they opened there presents we couldn't get in to the living room for toys her is a picture of what is was like it took us all day to clean away the mess we are still getting rid of the boxes .
BOXING DAY
we spent at Helen and Tony's house just us and the kids we had a lovely meal and i had a few glasses of champagne and 2 glasses of wine and for me that alot as i don't drink and they got the kids a present Connor was funny when Helen gave him his dinner he came to me and said i don't want my dinner but has Helen got us anymore presents .
NEW YEARS EVE
was spent just us and it went down hill from there we were supposed to have been going out with a couple and there kids to the park but they canceled at the last minute then Greg ended up at the doctors you can just imagine trying to find a doctor on new years eve it took me an hour of ringing around to find one that would see him and at mid night we were killing a white tipped spider so new years eve was not much fun and i just wanted to go back to the uk
NEW YEARS DAY
we took the kids to the park for a few hours then we took the kids out for a meal and ice cream in semaphore it was nice to sit and have a meal with the kids when they are being good i enjoyed it
we decided to go for a trip to Murray bridge for the day it took us an hour to get there and when we did we were there for all of 20 Min's there is nothing much there and most places were shut so we had something to eat at red rooster then we made our way home and on the way home we spotted a wildlife park so we took the kids and half way around Greg wanted me to take some pictures of him so as we stopped and as he past the camera to me i put the strap around my neck and i felt something sting me Greg told me to stop being soft and take the photo he said it was my chain then i felt it again and again so i put my hand on the back of my neck and pulled a big bull ant off the back of my neck so we had to go to the cafe to get some vinegar to put on it so that was that we had to go home i had a slight reaction to it it always happens to me I'm just waiting to be eaten by a shark or bit by a red back I'm the most unluckiest person i now
this week I've started to potty train Connor for the hundred time on Monday he took his nappy off for a few hours but screamed to have it back on we have a green potty for him but when we moved here we woke up one morning to find a white tip spider in it so he wouldn't go on it after that so what i tried this week it was a no go so yesterday i took the kids to the shopping centre because it was to hot for them to play outside in it reached 41 anyway i was in Kmart and i spotted some wiggles underpants so i got him some hoping i could get him to wear them and then when we went to the till Megan spotted a wiggles potty so i had to get it as you can probably guess he likes the wiggles and now i Carnt get him off the potty and he only wears nappies at bed time
