Less than 2 weeks until the new baby arrives!! Haley and I both had a dream on Saturday night that she was having a boy...this could present a problem given that the pram is hot pink, the carseat is hot pink and most of the clothes are pink, with a sprinkle of mint green and lemon.Haley is very organised and has all the clothes hanging up neatly (all on pink hangers, I accidently bought yellow ones the other day and they had to be returned lol) the hospital bag is packed, our plan of action is all worked out....all we need now is the little baby....sooooooo exciting!!!! Emily is taking her big sister role very seriously and if she sees Haley eating something unhealthy she declares "I don't think Ella Grace would like that Mum!"
What a week I have had!! Ebony missed the last week of school (and three of her exams) because she was very ill with a urinary tract infection...Had to call a doctor to the house at 3 am as she was in so much pain she couldnt walk or sit. She cried with pain for three days until her test results came back and she was started on antibiotics...Thankfully they kicked in almost immediately and within three days she was pain free. I have to tell you it wasn't before time, she is a dreadful patient...Everytime I tried to help her I got screamed at in a psychotic fashion and my nerves were wearing thin. Her recovery came just in time for her birthday sleepover on Saturday night...8 thirteen year old girls in our garage for movie marathon...They ate a mountain of food, went swimming in the dark and giggled well into the night...in the morning after a bacon and egg breakfast they began a one and a half hour marathon of applying eyeliner and straightenng their hair before they went back into the garage for more movies. I was expecting the worst but they were all well behaved, no dramas!

Based on my past week I have prepared a little quiz for you
