And so they do grow

I thought I should be keeping a record, for which I am pretty hopeless, about what the kids are up to.

Henry is gowing up and this is exciting but I feeling life is so busy that I don't get a chance to enjoy him. We were at a friends place the other day and Henry walked in and asked straight away "where are the toys" (he had never been to their place before). Suzie led him to the toys and he grabed a game off the shelf and Suzie said "oh I think you may be a bit young for that game".. He opens the box and says "its ok, its got instructions" Suzie was so blowen away she asked him how old he was and he said three and said "are you sure your not a short 5 or 6 year old". She then come and asked me how old he was because she was not convinced he was olny 3.

Little Charlie is understanding more and more each day. He can close the door when asked. He insists on feeding himself with a spoon and fork and grabs it off you if you try, and he is doing a great job at it. If you say dance, he does a little jig. I can't think of anything else so I will update as think of things.

We are moving house next weekend so I hope that goes smoothly.
I still feel pretty good although I think I may have sinisitus and I will visit the Doc tomorrow.

Feeling Better!! 16 weeks 4 days

Well I have been so sick, I couldn't bear to get on the computer. I started vomiting at 8 weeks and was not able to keep anything down and felt like I had a massive hangover that wouldnt ease all day. I started taking Maxalon to stop the viomiting which it did thank god but it did nothing for the nausia. At about 15 weeks I started to feel better and have just stopped taking the maxalon. I feel I have more energy and am not so tired all the time. I have been for my twelve week scan and both babies are doing really well, I also went to the OB in Perth and he was really good. Her said we could deliver the babies at 37-37 half weeks so I am pretty happy about that, I thought he would say something like he wanted to deliver at 34 weeks. Blood pressure is all good at 108/78. The OB wants me in Perth from 33 weeks so that is the last week in October and if they stay in, then they should be delivered end of November. Not sure where we will stay because grandad is getting rid of the unit and its harvest time so Damon will need to be on the farm. Something to think about anyway.

I think I have come to grips with the fact I am having twins and am starting to get pretty excited although Im not sure how I will manage especially with having my hands full already with the boys.

We have started moving our stuff to Carols and she has pretty much packed up her house and is now painting for us so we should do the big more in the next few weeks. Im pretty excited about that.

I have been trying to remember all the funny things Henry says but because I have not been here in so long I forget. Henry doesn't much like mash potato so I said "how about you try it with tomato sauce on top". Before he tried it he said "its a bit fruity" then after he tried it he said "It tastes like dirt" but he ate it all.
