Time for an update

Hi Guys! Thought it was time for a little update, so here goes. News... As you can all see I am now 23 weeks pregnant, gosh it is going sooooooo quick. Worked out the other day Makayla will be just 13 and a half months old... That spun me out a little. How am I going to cope? Talking about going fast, Makayla will be 1yr old in 8 days! Holy crap! Where the heck has all that time gone? Don't think she will be walking for her birthday, but I seriously am not that worried, won't be able to stop the little munchkin after she does, and while I'm pregnant, not really looking forward to having to run after a toddler! She has just started walking along the furniture, slowly, and when she wants to. She'll easily let go of the table and grab hold of me, and a few weeks ago she wouldn't do that at all. We got the wiggles from my bro and she absolutely loves them! Will stand up near the TV and watch them and start bobbing up and down, she is so funny to watch. OH! and she says mummy and daddy now! We couldn't believe it, that's TWO syllables! Good on her the champ!

Have started to get her birthday organized. Bought all the plates, cups, decorations and everything else I needed today. I still have the get the food next friday though but lucky for me I got friday of so I will be able to bake the cakes and get all the food and get everything ready. Sweet. I can't wait until her party it's going to be so much fun, but a bit stressful too! I will be glad when it's over! I will definatly post some pictures on here of it!

We are still trying to figure out names for the new baby. I am going to let michael to choose the name and i will pick one I like I think. Unless he comes up with really bad names! lol.

Alright, will post later. Catch you all later! Meggles

I laybuyed Makaylas b'day presents the other day at target. If I laybuyed two fisher n price items I got one for 1cent. WOOT! So I got her these three things - (sorry I can only find two...)

this is the swing i laybyed (minus the baby and the woman hehehe)

this one is the incrediblock (I put a couple o pictures in so you can see all of it)

In other news, I have a damn cold - and I can't take anything for it!!! ARGH!!! All I have been doing is sneezing and have a really bad blocked nose and a sore throat. Lucky me. I don't feel well, think i'll just watch tv. Catch yas

Makayla decided she would be a rat bag!! Last night, I had made us all dinner (makaylas was special left over meatballs and vegies) So what did she decide to do when I turned around? Grab hold of the bowl and put it all over the ground. ARGH bloody typical! I got a picture of her looking at it, and then the pick of it all on the ground... She really is a good kid.



Michael cleaned it all up which was nice, While I made her some new dinner. I was cranky to start with, then I just laughed my arse off.
I haven't felt the new baby girl kick much at all atm, been a bit sad am looking forward to the kicks again. I do feel her move around different places as I know she is sitting in one spot then another about an hour later. Does that make sense?
Michael and I have been talking about names, but anything I like he doesn't. LOL. So far my favourites are Caitlin (which mick doesn't like at all) Aleisha (which he thinks sounds too much like his sisters name elissa?? Does it??? I dont think it does... anyways) and the other name I like which michael SORTA likes is Sophia. I decided I don't want to continue with naming the kids all with M names, cause we will probably have a number three so I don't want to keep it going. I know the middle name is probably going to be grace. I like that name. I think mick like it... I dunno haven't really asked... so that might bloody change too. Argh jolly males (no offence those males who read this lol)
Alright im gunna go have a nap while my baby is. Talk to you all later !!

Hi all! We are home now!!! Got home yesterday, but was a bit busy unpacking, had to go get groceries all that fun stuff. Makayla seems to be on the way to being better, she hasn't had any major temps since sat which is FANTASTIC. She is also back to her usual healthy self, sleeping through the night (yay) mick and I finally got a good nites sleep (the both of us) the beds at the hospital ain't very nice at all! They said in the end she had a bit of everything, tonsilits, gastro and a bad viral infection. Looks like the last antibiotics worked, they put her on a stronger antibotic on friday nite when she hit 40+ temps! And to think, they had tried to send us home friday! She got the drip put back in on friday nite and mick said it was a pretty bad nite, she didn't sleep much. She slept heaps sat nite when I went back in, she must of been so worn out. Slept the WHOLE nite! Sunday she was a bit up and down but she was a lot better, and that night she didn't want to sleep and I feel asleep with her standing in her cot looking at me! The little rat! At least she wasnt screaming!
Michael and I are having a really hard time trying to find a name for our new baby. He doesn't like any names I like and I don't like any he likes. ARGH and he told me he doesn't like the name caitlin. ARGH. Oh well we will see how we go. Got 18 weeks to decide lol. Better be 18 weeks!!! (maka came early remember!)
Alright im going to go and do some housework while the little girl is asleep. Catch ya later

Quick update before I go to bed (im so zoned out this maybe a bit weird...) Makayla was admited to hospital on Thursday night/friday morning. We took her up on thursday night 12:00 and we're at the emergency getting bloods taken, xrays, had a canula (however u spell it) inserted. On thursday morning she had a temperature of 38.5 then she was hot again in the afternoon, and then that night before we took her up she had a temp of 39.2! Anyways, they did the bloods and they showed abnormal white cell counts so they put a drip in and started her on antibiotics. It looked like she had tonsilitus and a viral infection. We She seemed okay today, had a fever still but it went down before we left at 3:45pm. Then I dropped mick to work while i went to the chemist, went to see my friend paula who works down stairs from mum n dads office, where she started going purple and shaking. Scared the shit outta me. I took her up to mick she was burning up. 39.8 was the highest temp we got. Straight back up, and she is still there. They do seem to think she has a really bad throat so prob tonsilitus, but she also still has a cold and cough. We have to see how she goes. I am home tonight as I got to bed at 4:30 and had an hr and half sleep and an hr at the hospital. I am so tired, so i will update more later. Please pray for our little girl.

While makayla is asleep, I thought I'd update. I have been cleaning out the front room today, and when I was doing that I decided that I really want a bigger house. I talked a week (or about that) ago about the fact we are going to build out on the farm but that's not going to be for a few years. I talked to michael today and the bank and they have told us what to do if we want to renovate. We want to cut the bay window out and do another living area and a office/music room. I also want to do a patio and a double drive way (we only have a single one atm) Also I really want to get another shed with power out the back so we can put all the stuff from the garage into the shed so I can use my garage again! lol but then I also want to put a sprinkler system in and fix the back yard up so we have grass and no cat heads! So that's what we are going to do. I hope! We have to draw up the plans and then see how much it's going to cost and then take our ideas to the bank and hope they will say yes so we can do it. It will be so nice if we can. It'll add value to our house too. We are just thinking about it, dunno if it's going to happen but we'll wait and see. We have to make sure we can afford it too. That's my news :)

Breaking News

We just felt our new girl kick for the first time!!!! Mick felt her kick a couple of times too. Unreal. It's so cool. I just had my hand on my belly, that's how I felt the baby kick, didn't feel it kick me without my hand there. What an awesome feeling.

These first two are makayla and her cousin greg at the park the other day

Michael and I took makayla to the park on saturday and she was playing on the slide.

hmmm... Not a lot has been happening, I am mega tired, must be cause of this new pregnancy, plus I don't get heaps of sleep with Makayla, I used to sleep heaps when I was pregnant with her. Oh well. I'll cope. I'm usually really tired though by about 8ish. I don't know how long i'm going to be able to work for, I will just cut down my hours as much as I can! But so we can still survive!
I went and gave all my invitations out for Makayla's birthday party. We are having it on the 2nd of June. I can't wait until her birthday. It'll be cool. I'm gunna have to get her a few things though. I don't have the faintest idea what I'm going to get her for her birthday, maybe some fisher n price blocks and balls, and a bag to keep them all in. I'd like to get her a new dolly too. Might get michael to pick that out he got her first one when she was first born :)
I still haven't felt this baby kick yet!! I have felt it sometimes when I move, but that's about all. I didn't feel makayla kick till about 23-24 weeks and im only 21 weeks atm. I can't wait until I do though.
Okay will write more when I have some news. BYES!

Birthday cake

Hi ! Michael and I did a "trial" birthday cake tonight that we are going to use for makaylas 1st birthday. It's pink with smarties all over it. My brother andrew had the same cake when he was 1 cept it was yellow not pink! LOL. We haven't tried it yet, because I'm taking it to mum and dad's office tomorrow for their morning tea so they can all see it and tell me what they think (and if they like the taste) We are going to do the real one in the next couple of weeks. Tell me what you all think! :)

Just a quick post to show a couple of picturea of Makayla I got today of her at the park on the swing. She had a lovely time! Michael and I are going to take her tomorrow so I can show him how much of a fun time she had! Enjoy!

She looked so happy in that picture. She was laughing and having a
wonderful time.


I had her toy in my hand, which I got with the camera (opsies) Doesn't she look cheeky in this picture though!!

Hello everyone. GUESS WHAT! I found out what we are having.......... A GIRL!!! That's right we are having another girl! Found out that she is due on the 23rd of september, and mick's b'day is the 22nd! OMG! So I am like freaking out it's sooner than we all thought! eeeeek. AND I just realised that I am 20 WEEKS PREGNANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I couldn't get any pictures because the printer was broken, but she said she will do me a couple (how nice) when it is fixed. So I will post them later! We got the best looks she was in the best positions. We got one of her feet and then she decided to put her hands with her feet so we got pictures of her hands and feet at the same time! It was so cool. I hope I get one of those so I can show you all. Knowing my luck though I wont! Michael is in a bit of a daze - he wanted a boy, but so did I - im in a bit of a daze too! I just can't believe that we are having another girl. Talk later! Bye!

I found makayla asleep on the floor today. She had been watching TV (well we both had) and I turned around to check on her, and she was asleep on the floor. I then took her to her cot. She's such a cutie.

Hellooooo there! So what's a been happening? hmmm... do I usually say that like every time I blog? Probably! Did anyone notice in my last blog (my real blog not my joke) that I was trying to be all grammatical? (bet that word isn't spelt right) Like use all my commas and full stops and capital letters. You didn't did you. LOL. Took me forever to do it!! I usually don't give a shit. Okay Okay. Not much has been going on since the other day when I was online. I just need to get some stuff off my chest I suppose. Although I did decide that I wasn't really going to do anything personal on here. Oh well... I need to so I am going to. I don't know if anyone knows, but I used to be a christian when I was younger. I still have my beliefs, but I don't go to church, and I don't really care much about that anymore... I know it's not all about church but I bitch, I swear, I don't act like a Christian at all. So I know I'm not. I don't know if I want to go back to all that, but in some ways my life is a mess, but then other ways I like it and I don't want to go back to being a full on Christian again. In some ways it means giving up my life and I don't want to do that. I feel stupid doing christianity things such as worshiping and going to church, cause is it what I want? I know all you christian people out there will probably tell me to do it and that I should go back to him, but I have lots of issues with it all. So that's one thing that has been on my mind. In other breaking news.. (well it's not really but I got ur attention didn't I) We find out tomorrow what this baby is! Can you tell I'm excited, i've been talking about it for like 3 weeks! I so can't wait! Makayla is now getting into everything!
Alright Chow everyone!
Megs :)
