http://members.essentialbaby.com.au/index....howtopic=488359I hope everyone has a good 2 weeks and maybe we can organise another catch up maybe at Kids Rampage or a nice park somewhere. Any suggestions?

Can I suggest the kids play area in either the hellenic club or southern cross club in woden.
They are indoors, the kids can go crazy and we can all sit down for a tea or coffee.

Yep. Morning Tea at my house on Monday 14th. PM me for details if you need

We should be free to do something in the second week too.
Park if not too cold or Club. We don't mind

Chris has gone crazy with the entertainment area renovations!!!
I'm happy for a club for a get-together in the second week. I've heard that the Mawson Club has a good kids area as well?
(HOW DO I make the photos smaller???? Please help!!!)
Okay easiest thing is to just post the link!!

The Mawson club is good, we went there for a school mums meet up the other week. The service is a tad slow, even when it's empty, but they make great hot chocolates and cakes

Kath there should be a edit button in photobucket to make them smaller? Looks like a lot of work is going on in your back yard!
Barky
09/04/2008, 06:53 AM
Kath at least he is getting motivated to do some. Lets discuss the next play date next week at laurels. Kath do you want to car pool. I can put Camerons car seat in my car easily.

Next Playgroup, Monday 21st, 10am at my place. If you don't have my address can you PM me please. Oh and please bring along a plate of food for the adults, I will buy fruit for the kids.
Laurel, I think maybe it was just because she fell and worked herself up too much? I hope shes not sick.
Barky
14/04/2008, 01:24 PM
Poor thing!! Ryan is complaining of a headache and is unsettled so hopefully they both just need some rest.
L712
14/04/2008, 03:13 PM
I am thinking so too now Tasha.
She slept and woke up fine! All her colour is back and she is eating and drinking. Was thinking we were in for the full on gastro that is going around but now I think not.
Hope Ryan is ok!
We are planning to be there on Monday Tash. I'll PM you.
Laurel

Sorry Tash, but we're not going to make it on Monday - I hope you have a great time though and I'll see you on the 28th!!!

)
TracyMaraKay
16/04/2008, 08:39 AM
Hope everyone is feeling better, I think we've got the seasonal cough and runny nose going around this place atm!
Just what poor Kay needed.
Does anyone have any tips or thing they do to keep these bugs at bay or is it just part of canberra life?? lol

Well I have started to include more raw striny bark honey (similar to manika but not as expensive, from mountain foods in griffith) and garlic in our diets to booze the immune system. Honey on toast instead of vegemite for breakfast and garlic in the form of homemade garlic bread or garlic mash potatoes.

18/04/2008, 11:05 AM

Hey!

Will keep checking back to see if someone can help!

Big get better soon hugs and kisses for Han and Scarlett xoxo

Thanks heaps!
Princesspink

Thank you so much mumoftwo, i really appreciate you taking over this for me at the last minute.
Sorry i didnt post last night, i thought i would see how we're feeling this morning. Scarlett turned out with a fever last night complaining she was freezing and shivering and felt hot to touch. She seems brighter this morning, but still complaining of a "sick" stomach and a sore "chest" (her throat).
Im also hoarse and have mouth ulcers, and suspected something was up when i sounded very manly last night, so i think i might loose my voice as scarlett did the week before last.
I am very sorry if we've passed anything on yesterday, and also sorry to leave you in the lurch today for adults morning tea, i was really looking forward to doing something special for you all.
Have a great day,
Han x

We're not going to make it - again - although Cameron is a LOT better than he was it's probably better to keep him quiet today until the ab's really kick in! (has another ear infection).
So, will definitely see you all next week where I promise to make something very yummy for morning tea
Cheers, K
