2nd day of daycare

had a lovely day here, jons 2nd full day at daycare, I managed to fold and put away 5 loads of washing (without anyone pushing over the piles!), bake 2 menu items (without anyone standing at the kitchen barrier screaming as if they had been abandoned forever) watch 3 tv shows that weren't kiddy appropriate and having a long bath (without constant 'MUMMY!!' being screamed!) and clock watched and missed both the boys desperately.

Jon had a ball, had a little cry when woken up early from his nap though that happens even here, the lil man is like everyone else in this family and likes to sleep till he wakes naturally! but 2nd day was a success. hooray.

wow its been a while


yes i've been missing in action its been a fairly full on month or 2!


we got approved for the move christmas eve and spent christmas surrounded by boxes, the kids not getting much of their pressies as we had bought big items for the new house (which sucked) then came the worlds most expensive move ever. it literally cost us 7x more then it did to move from qld from nsw and that was from benowa to coomera!


we then had a truly horrid run of illnesses, constantly feeling ill, the kids got nits, liams wasn't able to start school on time due to wanting him to change classes so there were meltdowns and freakouts galore.
financially, emotionally, physically its been rough but we are getting there, the house is almost all set up other then liams pc as his monitor broke during the move, the garage/playroom is the last item on our checklist pretty much and tada all done at least for a bit!
but yay we are all moved!
liam started back at school today which is lovely, new teacher new class and i'm desperately hoping it goes well!
so how were your christmas holidays spent? what was your worst move or do you love the declutter the battle over the bond and starting afresh?
