After an EXTREMELY unmotivated bored out of my brain completely unproductive day, I'm dressed, the washing up is done and Elana's bottles are made. And it only took 8hours Normally I get up at 6:45am make Elana's cereal and Nick's sandwiches, put the kettle on for Elana's bottle and switch the coffee machine on. Then Nick goes to work at 8am and I wash the dishes from the night befores dinner and breakast, wash out and sterilise Elana's bottles, put her down for a sleep go put some clo...

It's kinda silly and I'm not crying anymore but I was about 2hours ago I had a pretty good day today - My parents came over and we took Elana to the park and then we had fish & chips for lunch afterwards. Got home and Nick got home a bit later and about 5ish Andy called to ask if I wanted to go to the hospital to see Jess - which of course I did. But 20seconds after I got off the phone I remembered I had a blocked nose -- I have that winter nose - actually its a winter and a summer nose -...

There's ALOT of crap going on in the world today - some of it is a bit closer to my own home then other things - example Jess but then the clock strikes 3:30pm and you turn on the TV and you watch the reaction on the face of the little girl who just discovered her favourite tv show is on. Elana was pretty grumpy before I turned the tv on but then the unmistakable happiness and colour that is HI-5 came out of our tv and all was quiet - Elana has spent the last 20minutes slowly edging h...

It was roughly this time 15 weeks ago (april 22) that I wrote my first blog - it seems like much longer and then again not that long ago. 107 articles 496 replies 6 pages (I remember being excited when it was just 2) Link numerous irrelevant comments on other peoples articles (I wonder if anyone has those numbers - I wonder who has the most comments in total ever) Since this is my 108th blog and 108 holds no significant importance to anything I'm just going to write about well noth...

My MSN looks funny right now -- this probably shouldnt be in any category but the ramblings of a silly girl category BUT the people online on my msn list are a bunch of irrelevant people - (including roc - I rock at fixing stuff which I totally misread when he first signed in) In00briated -- which is Mugz - I just mentioned that because if he read this and thought he was irrevelant he might get cut - but the people are irrelevant because they have nothing to do with Matchbox 20 Nick ...

We were all sick last week -- Elana was infront with just a sniffly nose, I was about 8 hours ahead of Nick - but he didn't seem to have it as bad as me and he got better first. Yesterday (Monday) was Nick's 21st Birthday -- he woke me up at 5am. We (Elana & I) bought him the Spiderman 2 game for Xbox with a Spiderman hand controller thingie, 2 Dan Brown books (Digital Fortress and Deception Point) and 2 Monty Python DVDs (Holy Grail & And Now for Something Comepletely Different.) We ha...

The dreaded lurgie has attacked us all - even Nick. Last night Nick got home late and within 5 minutes of him being home I'd fallen asleep on the couch. Elana has been sniffly and snuffly all week and I was a bit sinusy - well it hit me in a big way about 6pm last night - I had a hot steamy shower and went to bed at 9pm with a roll of toilet paper for my mose -- but couldn't sleep -- eventually I remembered we had Vicks so I got Nick to rub some into my chest & back and I felt heaps better...

There is no colour in the above selection that could represent a bowl of cocoa pops but since the bowl I ate them from was white with a blue rim - I choose to write in blue MMMM Cocoa Pops. It's 4pm on a Thursday afternoon - and I just finished my second bowl of cocoa pops. See I had breakfast this morning at 7:30 with Nick - he made bacon & eggs and toast - and I made that into a sandwich. MMM bacon & egg sandwiches - and then he went to work and I continued on with my day. About 10...

babies that turn intelligent people into babbling idiots? I find myself regularly speaking an octave or two higher then when I speak to "adults" when I'm speaking to Elana - I find myself speaking absolute jibberish -- and I don't mean too - Elana is a baby but she's intelligent just because we can't understand her doesn't mean she can't understand us - She knows what we're saying - so why do I find myself singing everything Oh look you smell so lets go change your nappy (diaper) -- and wh...

I'm inlove with a cover version of a song I keep hearing on TV shows - I think the first time I can remember hearing it was on ER when Mark passed away in Hawaii - My god I cried so much accentuated by that song Then I heard it again when Sunrise was in Hawaii and it was being played on The Block all the time when something slow was happening - it was playing in the background when they announced the winner etc. It was Somewhere Over the Rainbow -- but I had NO idea who sang it or where...

I have Matchbox 20 in my head - It just popped in - I was thinking about the first line I was going to type - what to say when suddenly "It's sitting by the overcoat, The second shelf, the note she wrote That I can't bring myself to throw away " I don't have a clue why that line popped in my head and I don't know my my mind skipped the rest of the verse and went on to "And I'm soTerrified of no one else but meI'm here all the time I won't go away " Reach down your hand in your pocket P...

I'd like to write a really profound thought provoking blog someday. But I doubt that day will come soon - but I still want to blog about something so in celebration of my own insane randomness I'm just going to keep talking about whatever pops into my head and post it. About 3 minutes ago I walked out into the lounge to turn the kettle on and the radio was on - it was All Star United - I love all star united but I'm not a fan of the particular song that was being played by the radio dj ...

I don't know what I want to write, I just wanted to write something to let Emma & Shawn know we're thinking of them when they log onto JU next. Last night I asked Ashlee how Alysia and her parents were and she said that the doctors don't like her chances. It has occured to be in the last couple of days that today (in US) and yesterday (in Aus) is the 21st - that Alysia Leah is one month old. It seems like so much longer ago that Emma first wrote asking for help with baby names and stuff. ...

*sigh* my happy little baby is not so happy and not so little anymore. Nick discovered last night that she is infact cutting a tooth on her top gum - poor little girl - she's actually alot better then I was expecting - it's like the caml before the storm. She's stopped eating solids altogether she's just not even interested in opening her mouth but shes having all the milk from her bottles - and she's chewing EVERYTHING. Every so often she'll start yelling or burst into tears and be tota...
