General consensus around Babyice’s sleeping issue has been that it could most likely be separation anxiety. He is at the right age for it (15 months) and our schedules filling up with gym, etc could very well be the cause. So we’ve slowed down and tried a few things to eliminate the problem. I went [...]
On Friday morning we went to church and straight after headed to Nitida to meet up with some people from Twitter. Gina and family were visiting Cape Town from Johannesburg over the long weekend and we wanted to meet up with them and finally introduce all our kids to each other. There were quite a [...]
The long weekend wasn’t too bad. We had something to do for each day, so it wasn’t really very relaxing. It sucked going out in the cold, but not going to work for 4 days is absolute bliss. I am of the opinion that 4 day weekends should be standard. Two days is just way [...]
I can’t believe I haven’t blogged all week. Well…I’m here now. Babyice’s 5th tooth finally popped out properly on Sunday and we had pancakes to celebrate. I know it’s not his first tooth, but any excuse for pancakes really. He has been waking up at night recently which is unlike him. I’m not sure if [...]
Gym is going ok. We’re still making a concerted effort to go 3 – 4 times a week. We missed gym on Wednesday because Rudi worked late and we just couldn’t make it to gym and back before Rudi was due to go to darts (he plays league darts once a week). We went last [...]
Stole this from Alida Age – 29. 30 in August. GAH. HTF did this happen? Life is flying by! Bed size – King. Upgraded from a double the day after my grandfather died (retail therapy, much?). Very happy with this, although it has caused some seperation between Rudi and I. Chore you hate – Ironing. [...]
We skipped gym on Friday night. Even though this set an alarm off in my head (as the beginning of the end) we swore we’d go on Saturday and we did. I went to yoga again. I always wonder about 10 minutes into the class why on earth I stepped in there in the first [...]
Babyice officially threw his first full on tantrum at the day mother yesterday. She always looked at us in disbelief when we related tales of his elaborate tantrums to her. She gets away with murder with him. He sips his medicine from a spoon for her, where we would have to hold him down and [...]
I’m tired. So tired. Yesterday I went to see the nurse at work to get my weekly vitamin B injection and chat to her about being tired all the time. She also recommended that I get my thyroid checked. I suppose I really should lift my tired bum and do it then. Life is not [...]
I am sad today. In the past week two people in a department that works closely with ours have passed away suddenly. Very suddenly. The first came in the form of a car accident while he was driving home from work. He left work to go home and never made it there. The second came [...]
