I'm now the thread killer!

What's going on out there?? I went to the kinder for mothers day yesterday which was beautiful to hear all the songs about how much they love their mum!... and I gave C some money for the mother's day stall at school, obviously I'm looking after my own interests there!!

Talk soon

MJ So glad that you’ve found a dentist situation that is going to work for you and C. I know what it’s like to want to make the experience as good as possible so that you don’t set up bad associations too – we’re happy shelling out for a paediatric specialist dentist as A is so happy to go. We had A put under for the one tooth he has had to get done (he did get a crown and this was when we started going a few years back there was enough behavioural/language things going on that I think doing it in the chair would’ve been traumatic) - I’m so impressed with C!
Our school doesn’t do mother’s day stalls, so I’m hoping the boys get it together some other way laughing2.gif

Loving my new routine of Tue and Thu at home now DP has gone back to work (he’s home Wed). I didn’t realise how much I’d missed our walks to/from school and having a cruisy day with some one-on-one with the baby in there. I’ve even cooked both nights (I don’t think I cooked at all in April blush.gif) so who knows, I could turn into a domestic goddess!

Happy Mothers day all!!!! biggrin.gif
Hope you all got spoilt and having a very relaxing day.

i got totally spoilt. The boys got me a brand new leather wallet. Owen had spotted that mine was falling apart and insisted that they buy mum a new one, I didnt hint, honestly LOL
I got a `yummy mummy` mug that Owen bought at the school stall, a `sexy` glasses case for my sunnies LOL, a plant, (bulb), thank goodness they are easy to care for as I kill everything, a photo frame, a hand dyed yellow scarf that Liam made and lots of little bits and pieces.

We went out to a pancake place for brekkie. I had to wear my scarf and take my mug!! Owen insisted the waitress fill it up with a capuccino as soon as we walked through the door.
If anyones interested, there are pics on FB.

We are now having a Wii competition, which isnt going too well. Owen is a bad looser!!

Back to work tomorrow. Still loving it. Had to do my yearly goals at the beginning of the week and am going to be sent on numerous PDs to improve my skills, so its looking hopeful that this position will become permenant- yay!!!!

Anyway its my turn, take it easy everyone

Hope everyone had a lovely Mother's Day! I got cards from the boys (N's 3rd ever bit of artwork!) and chocolates and a big fluffy dressing gown - oh, 2 daytime naps too wink.gif

Sal You really scored! Sounds like a great day (we would've played Wii here but A lost it after some bad behaviour on Saturday) Your work situation sounds great, specially all the training.

Jayne Sorry to hear about your mum, hope she gets better soon. RPA's a great hospital though, so at least she's in the best possible hands there.

Jeez it's cold here in Sydney. And A has to wear shorts to school too today cos he's gone through his last pair of sport tracksuit pants at the knee. Un-fricking-believable rant.gif Since last year he'e been through at least 3 pairs of the sports pants and 4+ of the normal uniform ones, all on the right knee. Sooo expensive, and threats to just keep him in shorts won't work - he doesn't seem to care and with a lingering cough I can't do it. He's going well otherwise though, he's been moved off levelled readers onto chapter books now - so wish I could travel back in time to tell the me that was so upset when I learnt how historically deaf kids have had huge literacy problems, leaving school with a 4th grade reading level. So proud of him!
