feburary 6th

we moved to adelaide. brett stayed in brisbane to wait for the removalist and clean the house.

its very sad leaving Brisbane but i know i will be happy with my family. brett drove my mum and i and 2 kids to the air port. he went through the city in peak hr silly boy. but made it just in time.

stayed at my mums in her 2 bedroom unit for a week til brett flew over with the dogs and then we went to bretts mums.

its a very rare blood posioning.
it slows ur blood flow and makes ur heart work faster and shuts all ur organs down.
january 25th, i woke up feeling not so well. thought it was just heat stroke coz we had been in the sun the day before. took some panadol which didnt help. i knew it was more so i made brett ring me an ambalance as by this stage i couldnt sit up as i was feeling dizzy. ambalance thought it was just food posioning but took me to hospital anyways as i was 16 weeks pregnant. when i got to hospital they took blood and brett brought the kids in. we sat there for about an hr when th drs asked brett to take the kids to a friends house as i was very sick.

teegan and tim were here from the 12th of july til the 25th of july and we had a ball! we went to south bank, the city, mt cootha, mt cootha gardens, surfers paradise, dreamworld! it was very sad to see them go! yes i cried when they got on the plane to go home.

madison is just a week off being 1. wow the yr has gone fast. shes still very tiny! she weighs 7.4kg and she 74cm tall. shes a little under weight for her age but drs arent worried as she gaining a little at a time. shes tall for her age as well. looks like she might take after her daddy. shes not walking yet she doesnt have the confidence but she will get there. shes a fast little crawler!

madison is 9 months and 3 weeks old!!

Madison is crawling!! she loves to crawl everywhere!! shes 6.9kg which is a little under weight for her age but she will catch up and as long as shes putting on weight and not losing it she will be fine!!
she is cheeky as ever!! she loves to play in aidens room with his cars.

Aiden is 4 now and growing so fast. he can count to 20 and she getting to know the days of the week. he loves to go to day care twice a week....

We went for a walk to the park late. On our way home we went to see some of the christmas lights. There was a car parked on the side of the street and Aiden pointed to it and said "Mummy, crash".

Melanie told him that it wasn't crashed, it was just parked there.

Later that night we were all in bed and we heard the screech of tires and then a crash noise. We went outside to see what it was and the car that Aiden pointed to earlier had been hit by another car.

Perhaps he knew something that we didn't.

We went to South Bank for a swim today and while we were there we went to the markets. We walked past a rice reader in one stall and got to talking about fortune telling.

On our way home brett told me that he thought it would be fun to have our cards read so we decided to go back and give it a go. i was worried that we would only get bad news but brett assured me that it does not work like that.

Only i had my fortune told because it cost more for both of us. The "psychic" did a palm reading first and told me that when she was younger she had to become independent and look after someone else. that was a big guess as Aiden was asleep in his pram. i voiced this (in a nice way) and she said that this event took place when whe was 14. This made sense because it was at that age when she was helping a lot to look after teeg. The psychic also saw that Aiden was born about 2 years after that.

Aiden started day care on monday. we was fine when we left. i cried when brett dropped me home. when i picked him up he was happy playing in the sand pit. he was grumpy when we went shopping for some new shoes for him. he likes playing with the kids.

yesterday brett and i went out for lunch with some other ppl for melb cup. we didnt win but we had fun. i got sun burnt walkin to the train station to catch the train into the city.

As you all probably know i had a misscarriage last week. Im Coping Ok i think. im still not allowed to do very much which is hard coz i have to look after aiden all day but brett helps when ever he can. we will just have to try again.

Thanks for all the comments. they have been helpful.
