4:48 pm - its a girl
|
for those who don't know, i gave birth to another little princess on 26th November at 0848 after an extremely speedy birth.. in fact, she came out with my waters at 6cm dilated (well, i probably wasnt 6cm anymore but apparently, i was when they broke my waters so obviously, as soon as they came out and her head hit my cervix, it became complete and out she came in one fell swoop!) She was 7lbs 7oz (teeny for me!) and has dark hair (again, weird, my others didn't!) Her name is Arden Diane Marie and she is just an absolute angel... Im so very happy and so is she.. Liv and Millar absolutely adore her and it's just such a blessing to have another new born child in this house, especially so close to christmas.
hope you are all well and have a fabbo xmas with your families! xoxo
oh ps, I am now, after three years full time at university, a qualified Registered Nurse! go me!!!

well, it would appear my committment to journally is about as regular as a lotto win, however, after reading back over some old entries and enjoying them, i decided i better load one up..
so, here i sit, 31 weeks pregnant, think it's a girl, though, we never found out via ultrasound, but if i had to pick what i thought, that'd be what i'd lean towards as the pregnancy has been more similar to liv's rather than millars, though, that really means fug all in the big scheme of things, it is probably a boy ha ha!
Im all ready now, cot check, pram check, capsule check, nappies and sundry check, clothes check so yeah, I can go off for five weeks prac and hopefully not give birth during and then rest up for a few weeks before the imminent arrival (still scared shitless about pushing it out!)
Nearly finished uni now, have one more assignment and that is my theory done. Need to find out about my prac that i need to complete then i need to register, transfer reg to WA and then i start a year grad programme at osborne park which makes me no end of happy!
Other than that, crusin along with day to day shit, have had shocking reflux so have resigned self to the fact that i'll need to take medication with dinner every nite to get a good nites sleep or else im up from about 2am onwards... also have the dreaded diabetes again, but managing to keep that somewhat under control..
ok, that's all for now, need to go have shower, make beds, clean kitchen, do washing, measure blood sugars, poo, not in that particular order..

so anyhoo, here I am, at 2.30am, wide awake for some unknown reason, must be all the sleep i've had in the last four days coz of the BAD GASTRO I HAD WHICH HAD ME SHITTING AND SPEWING ALL AT THE SAME TIME!!! anyhoo, nuff of that, but suffice it to say, i produced more shit than an electrified shitting machine...
So now that Im semi back in the saddle, im currently 11 weeks and 6 days preggers and starting to feel a little more energetic and a little less nauseated, though, i still at nite, specially just before bed time, have a few gaggy moments, which are easily settled with a glass of milk and two scoops of milo.. heh!
Kids are great, millar is loving kindy and livvy is sailing through year one. other than that, not much else to add about them.
Am just shy of finishing my second last semester every for uni, can't believe it's just about over, have one theory unit next semester and then just my prac which i will do some before baby and some after and hopefully can graduate and get into full time grad programme by july next year. Doing my specialty prac in theatres which is AWESOME coz i sooo enjoyed my week down there last prac (same hospital too so lovin that)and then hopefully, they'll luv my ass soo much they'll over me a permanent possi when i finish my grad programme.
ok, sweet as, should lay down here now on the couch and see if i can finally pass out before the sun comes up... have even chucked on yesterdays load of washing so that's all done, just wish i had a light over the washing line coz i'd seriously hang it out right now if i could see out there! its pitch black round where my washing line is though and i scared of spideys...
rightoh then.. of to land of nod if head/body knows what's good for it...

so i had a scan yesterday, im 10w3d preggers.. well make that 4d today. It really brought it home when i saw it there, and actually, made me very happy, i had biggest grin on my face.. probably even bigger than when i had the other two! anyways, so far so good, have to take millar for four year old jabs tomorrow so will ask GP to slip me a quick Nuchal transluscency scan and blood test forms as i am a bit further along than i thought i was!
anyways, still a bit seedy, and still a bit tired however, also having some insomnia which sucks.. body already feels six months pregnant.. anyways, hopefully, i'll be an aunty by the end of the week also!
ok.. must go get liv schooled up and dropped off...

today, i have felt marginally better, however, i have slept for most of it post two nights of night shift, so we'll see how the rest of the arvo pans out, still have zero energy, a shit load of tasks and uni work to complete and about as much desire as a three toed sloth to do anything about it all! anyways, tomorrow, i intend to get some uni finished at the very least and my bedroom dusted and bed sheets changed, if i can do that at the very least, I may be able to mark it off as a good day!
I had a dream during my sleep that i had a miscarriage, i dont know what to make of that, nor what I think about it...
anyways, better go get some mojo and pick up livvy from school...

soooo as previously stated, im up the duff, I knew without even having to test when i gagged on my toothbrushed, followed by chucking in the dunny straight after my shower then having a massive urge to eat KFC....not sure by how much but could be about 5-6 weeks, will have to get a dating ultrasound to be sure....anyways, long story short, clint was away when i found out and i could not get hold of him by phone as he was out of range for two whole days while i stressed out and panicked about becoming a parent again.. it crossed my mind not to keep the baby, however, i just knew i would not be able to go through with a termination. As the days have gone on, it's grown on me, as has the pregnancy sickness, complete lack of desire to do anything and tiredness where i contemplate just spending all day in bed.. after reading back over my previous pregnancies on here, i am reassured that it will all go eventually and i'll get some mojo back soon.
now im torn with what to name the lil fukka!!! the only two names i like clint hates and i have scoured websites to no avail.. i know i have months and months to go but heck, i just know we aren't going to come up with anything we both like.. colour me screwed!!! (my name I like for both sexes is Avin, clint says no way, i plan to persuade him somehow!!!) any ideas you have will be gratefully recieved!!! I really like harlow for a girl too but clint vetoed that...i know it's a bit nicole ritchie but there is something classic about it...
anyways, this update, is about all i can muster for now.. i wish i had more energy to update on other things but they'll have to wait till i have more gumption...

not sure if anyone still watches this journal, but im going to start it up again, because, i found out last week im pregnant with my third child. Not only that, Clint's mum has been diagnosed with metastatic melanoma (not a good prognosis) which is reminiscent of my pregnancy with millar when my uncle was diagnosed with lymphoma and died the same day he was born.. its all a bit weird, not overjoyed as yet, but that will come.... feeling very seedy, tired and sore boobed.. worked a night shift last nite so a bit tired but will start updating again as i want to keep a pregnancy journal for this baby like i did with liv and millar...
ok, thats all for now...

8:56 am - cruskits are underated
|
So, im home from darwin, actually, i was home last saturday, but i've been so busy with work and shit that i haven't had a chance to get on here and whinge about it!
anyhoo, luved darwin HEAPS!!!! if i could live anywhere in oz besides perth, it'd be darwin. Its like bali without the stench, cars and people... sooo laid back. I'm glad i have to go back in 2009, might even take the fam with me this time. Anyhoot, it was gorgeous weather, hot all the time really, and uni was fun. Met some great people and on my prac day, had to wash some old man's balls, that was interesting for want of a better word.
Anyhoo, home again as stated and working up a storm. So many extra shifts coming my way. Should enjoy it while it lasts i suppose, i have a feeling the other girl maybe coming back next week so she'll be covering her normal days meaning i wont get any spare shifts unless she can't come in. But we'll see.
Kids are both fine, millar currently has a massive turd in his pants and wont let me change him.. ah well, it's his comfort being compromised. Me and liv just have to put up with the stink, which thankfully, isn't as bad as some days. Oh yeah, liv had day surgery on tuesday to fix her back molar which had a massive cavity - apparently she had a weakness in the enamel and it just decayed out, so she has a stainless steel cap on it, she's all about the mouth bling now!! anyhoo, she did really well and i very proud of her braveness.
I've woken up with a touch of conjuctivitis today..OH JOY.. so rang work, they said don't come in tonite, so because it's mine and the Tox's 11 wedding anniversary tomorrow, we are going to have some friends over for dinner instead, a little impromptu dinner date..
All you mofo's should get facebook (www.facebook.com) or if you have, find me and friend me, i have all my pix up on there.. if you got it, send me a comment and i'll add ya!
other than that, nothing much to report from this neck'o'the woods. any suggestions for what to cook for dinner would be sweet, only allison is coeliacs so no gluten for her..makes it tough.. might chuck some buk buk's on the rotisseri bbq...salad or roast veg... hmmmmmmmm
righto, as you were, i gotta go change that shitty ass and clean my eye bogies..

8:39 am - ground hog day
|
would you believe it if i told you today started almost identical to yesterday, only, no bulk rubbish men, that was replaced by Liv and Millar fighting, laughing, generally being noisy and coming down to check on me every 15 minutes to see if i wanted to get up. I also have refused to change the nappy full of shit until after i finish my bacon/egg/cheese muffin which has again, splurted it's yolk all over my t'shirt, and liv's couch blanky... and fortunately for me, no poo gods visited this am... i did get a phone call from some o'east number wanted to know about make a wish australia 2 seconds after arriving in the kitchen from my toasty bed... that shat me coz i expected it to be someone from my family who all happen to be in Melbourne this weekened for my uncle's 50th.. SO SPEWIN i could'nt go coz of darwin....who did ring just as i started cooking my egg....fortunately, i have a cordless phone so could still keep an eye on my egg without fear of it overcooking...PHEW!!!!!!
Anyway, work was sweeter than Bailey's sucked out of a hot strippers belly button last nite, cool nurses, lots of chitchat etc.. then i left 20mins early.. can't knock that...
without wanting to bore shit down with random weather talk, i have to make mention that its going to be approx 28 degrees celcius today!!! yeeeehawwwwww.. its blue skys, not a cloud to be seen and at 8.45am, i have the whole house open.. stunning.. didn't get to lay in the sun yesterday after my 6 hour cleaning/cooking mission so today could be the day..
Must complete the packing phase today, i have started a list of must not forgets and will cook up a big lasagne for dinner tonite. Clint is off to Allison's 40th, which i can't go to coz i have to work, but i may call in there for 30 mins after work before i head home to bed before having to get up before the squirrels in canada to get to airport...
i just noticed, i do alot of this..... this..... see....... the five or so dots between wording, though sometimes it's only two.. like that... oops that was three...
Anyhooters... the chores are callin, i have bacon stuck in my teeth and am sitting here in nothing but a pair of knickers and a pair of knockers as i had to remove yolk stained t'shirt and fashion something of a toga out of liv's couch blanky which i managed to babywipe the dribble of yolk off so I should really go get something on before clint gets home from fishing and thinks this is some random attempt to sex him up before i go away.
not sure if i'll get a chance to update in the next week as wireless may be hard to find up in darwin.. but if i do get a chance.. you'll know all about it.. there they are again, those dots... it's habitual.... i have an itchy ring finger!!!
and on that note, i feel the poo gods coming.. sorry, is this TMI?????

8:29 am - a whinge a day.....
|
so many things that furiate me have happened in the last 10 mins...
1) i need to do a big first morning poo just as my egg was cooking for bfast.. i hate to leave my egg unattended for fear of it overcooking, but the poo gods wouldn't take no for an answer
2) i bit in to my home made bacon, egg and cheese mcmuff and my egg burst like a gigantic pimple all over the front of my pj top loosing nearly all it's perfectly cooked yolk...what a waste (but the mcmuffs were perfect.. inspired by our visit to mikky d's for breakfast yesterday and the kids LUV LUV LUVED the bacon and egg mcmuffins)
3)Millar asked me mid enjoying my mcmuffin to change his bum which was full of dumplings which had started to migrate down his leg.
4)Our bulk rubbish was finally collected this morning..after it's been sitting out there for three weeks and has killed the law in patches from sitting on it so long.. they were so loud and took soooo long to get past the 5m radius of our house that there was no ignoring it and going back to sleep..
4)so when i was laying there waiting for bulk rubbish men to hurry up and naff off, i was thinking about how when i cleaned out tox's drawers yesterday for all his new clothes, i hadn't seen the new dressy shorts i brought him a few days ago.. it was on my mind about where could they be.. so when i got up, i rang him and the following conversation ensues:
bek: "morning, where are those new shorts i brought you with the belt?"
clint: "in the wash"
bek: "oh have you worn them?" (wracking brain to think when THAT could have been)
clint: "yeah, to work yesterday"
*insert beks' blood hitting boiling point and steam exiting ears at bulk speed*
bek: volume exceeding the decible of a jet airplane "THEY AREN'T WORK SHORTS CLINT THEY COST 50 BUCKS"
clint: "ok, is that all you rang for?"
HOLY DUMBASS BATMAN! WHAT... THE.....????
no wonder i have grey hairs...
Work was a big crappola last nite, i worked with this nurse who i have met on one or two occasions and he was really nice, don't get me wrong, in fact, he had to ask me my name coz he couldn't remember it and i was making a joke about how crushed i was he had forgotten blah blah and he said that my hair was different (it's not... ) and i said no, it's not and he said "well you look different.. in a good way" with a big grin on his face, and i thought...oh, sweet, he gave me a compliment.. bet he's got a crush on me....oh my god, does he know im married...what if he asks me out.. what if he STALKS ME... what am i gonna do, how can i nip this in the bud now... SLAP SELF BACK TO REALITY.. I always digress.. anyhoo suffice it to say, the evening started out well.. until i smelt marcus' body odour.. but again, that's a whole other story.. which mean's i'll digress again.. so the point of this story is, as the night progresses, i realise that this nurse, who is falling madly in love with me and going to be waiting out the front of my house just as soon as he finds out my surname and address, likes to be told EVERYTHING that is about to occur on the ward, which in the previous five weeks, i just told to any tom, dick or alecia who happened to be nursing on the ward... YEAH, TELL ME THAT 3 HOURS IN TO OUR SHIFT TOGETHER WHEN WE'VE GOT TO THE COMFORTABLE STAGE AND THINGS ARE GOING REALLY SWIMMINGLY...AND IM PLANNING MY 'IM GOING TO HAVE TO BREAK HIS HEART THE POOR SAUSAGE BEFORE HE STARTS CALLING ME' SPEECH!!!!! So now i hate his guts and hope i never work with him again.. he's too high maintenance.. I can't remember every little thing to tell him especially when he's not there half the time.. A HOLE...
THEN, to top it off, this other bird, we shall call.. um... Ms My Ass is Smaller than my Head, came down and had a little dig about some guy who was supposed to be going to one ward which had then changed to another ward and why hadn't I informed Mr He Who is in Love With Me, and I said "well, I told so'n so" who had since left for the night and I assumed would have passed the message on at some stage, and Ms My Ass is Smaller than my Head, says "well you have to let the nurses know when this stuff is going on" in front of everyone, including Mr He Who is in Love With Me, who has already had a dig at not telling him everything, and i said "i did tell someone, i told Ms She Who Shall Not Be Named" before she left for the nite" and promptly turned around to face my puter and Ms My Ass is Smaller than my Head, comes over, rubs my back and says "we aren't having a go at you!" COULD HAVE FOOLED ME SISTA! anyhoo, bitched about it all the way to the car to Ms She Who Looks Like Lily Munster" - not sure if he still wants me now, probably think's im a useless Mofo...
Tonite better have some of the nurses i do like workin on the ward.. or im going to pinish heads!
Well, it's going to be a beautiful day today and i have plans to clean bathroom, toilet, take some pics of the goings on around here for ya'll, start my packing as i leave at the crack o' on sunday and im working tomorrow.. and need desperately to go get brow's waxed and a pedicure wouldn't go astray either, but i do need to curb the spending.
so, i best be off and get some washing on the line to dry in the beautiful sunshine, which if im lucky, i may get to lay in for half an hour today..
hooroo...

1:20 pm - who dah well dressed man?
|
so, we decided after spending up a storm at joondalup, to try the Rusty sale again, hoping it wasn't too crowed, and alas, the gods beamed down and let me shop.. AGAIN.. bargins were a plenty and i think clint is fully kitted up for the whole summer and part of next winter after a mere 270 bux.. BONE ASS!!!
Kids behaved only wrecking one scarf display.. oi! anyhoo, we are back home now and after eating a delectable curry mince pastry i made for the crew for dinner last nite, im contemplating cleaning up the abode somewhat, although, its mostly done, i have neglected to make the beds this morning, rathering to leave early to beat the school holiday crowds at the shops, however, when it gets to this time of day, seems pointless to make the beds!!! but i have a mountain load of washing to fold before i go to work tonite so its into bed for Millar, movie on the box for Liv and action stations for me...
tallyho!

8:54 am - tie me shopping bags down mate...
|
so today, after waking reluctantly to millar pulling my eyelashes and stroking my lips, i decided NO TO WEET BIX today and think i'll take the kids to mikky D's for breakfast, AFTER we watch little rascals AGAIN and i do the 'massive pimple on double chin still camoflage mission'. We need to go to target and k'mart and the only place that has them two, together, in close proximity is JOondalup so its off there again....wish i could get back to the Rusty sale but its too crowded with two kids and a pram, or even just two kids! anyhoo, managed to get the tox a few t'shirts and myself some groovy white and red striped thongs.. Liv scored a purple back pack for school next year... im thinking look at me, totally cool mother, buys her kids the funky stuff.. she's thinking why can't i have barbie bag (ew) or bratz bag(double eww)...
Anyhoo, as im working shite loads of hours this week, including saturday nite before i fly out at the crack o' dawn sunday, im still trying to get all the stuffs i need before i go, haven't packed but a nowt or even given a mere sprinklng of a thought to what im taking.. guess it'll be a saturday morning rush about before work...while cursing to myself for leaving it to the last minute thereby forgeting something crucial.. like pimple cammo...
Anyhoo, i best be getting us all dressed, teeth scrubbed and shoed up to go get the few things i need before saturday morning.. - may just pop across to the rusty sale to suss out the busyiness and see if i can nab a couple more bargs!!!
ok, as you were.....
