Word Vomit

You know I like to over share right? Right?

Well here I go again...

* I have spent way too much money lately on the little guy and none on myself I should add. We are trying to finish off his nursery so we've bought some very cute jungle prints, are stalking looking at Etsy for two wall decals for his room as well as a new rug of some description.

* I have imposed a no nappy buying ban on myself. Refer to the above point of spending too much money.

* Looking at booking flights to Cairns for FIL's 60th. Holy hell talk about expensive. Flights (two I should add making a 6+ hour day of travelling with a 14 month old!) + accommodation + car hire = ohhh I don't know about $2000. Holy feck!!

* Have replaced one breastfeed a day with formula so I can look at returning to work when I stop procrastinating and call my manager. Feeling guilty and sad. Must keep telling myself it's just milk.

* Got a text message from Mum asking if I'm angry at her, and if I am to please call her. What the feck!! Passive aggressive much?

* Took the young one to the GP yesterday as I found a lump on his neck. $70 lately I find out it's just a lymph node post viral infection. Though I did learn you have lymph nodes on your head as he also has a raised one there too. Feeling like a dumb nurse that I didn't know that.

* Off to the dentist Tuesday. FFEECKKKK!!! Have not been for way too long. Is it weird that I'd rather birth a baby then go sit in that dental chair? My heart is racing just thinking about it. Though this dentist is all for sedation. Hmm might tell him to get all the dental work over and done with at once or I'll chicken out and won't go back!

Do you have a fear of the dentist? Any tips for travelling with a toddler?

Hey, It's Okay THURSDAY

I got this idea from Airing my dirty laundry who got this idea from Glamour magazine. They have a section called Hey, It’s Okay and will list a bunch of things to be okay about.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

• To be a little pissed off that a Mum brought her baby to Mother's Group after he'd been exposed to foot and mouth. Where's the common sense? Just stay at home lady.

• To be excited that we've finally sold one of our cars. Family SUV here we come.

• To hate the fact that the little guy is sick with a cold. He looks so miserable. He has a blocked tear duct as well so he is constantly crying and has snot dripping from his nose. Poor bubba.

• To have a soft spot for Cherry flavoured candy canes. They are only out once a year, may as well make the most of them.

• To be a little grumpy about how much it costs to post things. Thanks for spreading the Christmas cheer Australia Post.... NOT!!!

• To be utterly terrified of bugs, snakes, lizards and spiders.

Hey, It's okay THURSDAY

I got this idea from Airing my dirty laundry who got this idea from Glamour magazine. They have a section called Hey, It’s Okay and will list a bunch of things to be okay about.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

• To be well and truly sick of the rain. Our dams are 100% full, my veggies are growing like crazy, there's mushrooms popping up in random places in the yard... enough now. Come back another day.

• To be a little bit sad that we are not spending Christmas in Queensland with the extended family.

• To hate the fact that people always have a go at other people's choices on how they parent. Enough already!!

• To love sending out Christmas cards, with a cheesy family note of course. Pity my nice lovely handwriting has turned to scrawl since I don't write much anymore.I don't think shopping lists count as writing right?

• To be a slight might jealous when I see people with a beautiful baby bump (Yep crazy I know).

• To be super excited that my gorgeous friend and her two lovely little girls are back in town for a week.
  

  Must finish the girls name canvases!!

• To miss having a pen friend. I miss that excitement I used to get when I'd check the mail box. Now I know there will only be bills, bills, and more bills when the postie comes to my house.

How peculiar

Do you ever check your blog stats?

I've just found out people have been referred from alphainventions.com. I have never been on this site and can't fathom how people make their way from that blog to mine ??

Does it freak you out when you realise someone from Malaysia, or Croatia or Russia have been reading your blog? I find it a bit mind boggling that someone from another country would read this here little old blog.

I also learnt that people stumbled across my blog after googling Kate Miller Heidke and 'pillow under my' .... how very odd indeed!!

** And on a completely random note how funny is the word peculiar**
