more interesting conversations

Hayley bought the kids over for a few hours today, I love having little chats with them, although they are only 2 & 3 they both talk as if they are 20!! Emily is so Expressive and well, Brayden, is just too damn cute when he tries to copy Emily. the first conversation went a bit like this.

• Emily....Nanna, do you know what i see'd in the sky the uver day?
• Nanna....An airplane?
• E.....NO no, nanna, a real live rainbow.
• N...REALLY? was it red and yellow and pink and green? purple and orange and blue?

• Brayden...I likes pink i does
• E...NO YOU DONT only girls like pink, your a boy, you like blue
• B...shoves his icecream into E's face yelling...I LIKES PINK I DOES so shutup. NANNA she ate my iceblock
• N...it's ok, boys can like pink because Cam likes pink he had a pink cast remember..
• E...*rolls eyes yet again* nanna, I am not thinking about pink anymore, i am thinking about RAINBOWS *rolls eyes so far back i'm sure she's going to faint*

*edited to add*..i forgot about this one LOL

I gave Emily and Bray their first Caramello Koala's, Brayden loved it, in fact i dont think he chewed it. Emily on the other hand wanted to play with it, it was much to cute to eat (girls lol). I told her there was a nice surprise in the middle, She wouldn't bite it's head off, so started from the feet, well, she bit it in half, her face just froze, mouth partly open, caramel drizzling down her chin, she looked at me, spat the half out into my hand and holding back tears said...NANNA, the koala pooed in my mouth....then looked horrified as Nanna ate the other half to show her that it wasn't poo!! she wont eat them at all now LOL

FINALLY!!!!

Aaryn, just put his head on my shoulder and sighed "can you believe i finally have a girlfriend?" I looked and sighed back "no" He then says "All that hard work has finally paid off" *insert strange look from mother*... he then says.." for 6 years i've been working hard at getting a girlfriend, and FINALLY it's all been worth it" *Heavy sigh* (for godsake, he's only 10!). I somehow dont think this Maddie is a flash in the pan,

Ground rules are to be made...

1. there will be no snogging at my house (or anyone elses) until you are at least 13/14,
2. When on a date ie: to the pictures, you will be accompanied by an adult who will sit between you at all times. popcorn and drinks to be purchased before hand and no you cannot accompany each other to the toilet!
3. NO sleepovers, well ok BUT seperate bedrooms, bells will be put on the doors to stop sleepwalking, actually, Aaryn will sleep on the floor in his parents room leaving his bedroom free for Maddie.
4. Gifts of love, will be made, not paid for by this 'mother'. if on the other hand, Maddie chooses to buy a gift, nothing under $20 will be tolerated, scrapbooking vouchers are negotiable!
5. Talk of Maddie is to be limited to 1/2 hour before school, 1 hour after school and 2-3 hours on a weekend.
6. NO YOU CANNOT BORROW MUM'S CAMERA TO TAKE A PHOTO OF MADDIE FOR YOUR WALLET (for goodness sake)
7. OK Mum will come to school and take a photo of Maddie for your wallet (do you have a wallet??) YES ok i will do a page on you and her, YES you can have it on your bedroom wall (anything else?? a pint of blood perhaps??)
8. Your brother is not interested in your love life, he is only interested in what ever is showing on his computer screen ie: world of warcraft or Runescape. please do not bother him with your lovelife (PLEASE!!!!)
9. NO you cannot use mum's mobile phone to call Maddie, NO i do not want to talk to her mother, DONT you dare use my phone..I mean it...

he used the phone! after all, he hasn't seen her for a couple of hours!

i'm dreaming......, large white wedding, Huge wedding cake, black suits and ties, top hats perhaps?? Emily will be bridesmaid, Evan, Keiran and Brayden. Groomsmen and Cameron will be best man, She can pick the other bridesmaids after all, her parents will be paying for this wedding. I'm expecting at least 6 grandchildren, 5 girls, 1 boy, one girl will be named after ME and I will have final say on babies names (hey, it's my dream!!!). They will build a granny flat in their backyard for me and Gary to retire to, after all he is the baby of the family and he will look after us in our old age..(once again, it's my dream LOL). now if i tell them all of this, i wonder how long that little minx will stick around??? LOL

Love, casts and other ramblings

• Aaryn is in love, it's official, he has announced it to the whole family and Tina has made him the cutest valentine card for her on Thursday. I contributed with a little chocolate with the words, you are so sweet on the wrapper. (i have a box full of these little treats that i bought for gary and forgot to give to him LOL). Her name is Maddie, she's 10 the exact same age as him! (his words) and she is almost (though not quite) as beautiful as me (his words again lol). I have met this young lady and i have to admit i was not impressed with my first glance. We were at the Palmwoods hotel enjoying a birthday dinner for Gary and also my Friend Chrissie had stayed the weekend. I noticed this young girl, with long dark hair, pretty little thing except for the make-up, i swear she keeps estee lauder in business LOL..I was taken ill just before our meals arrived (most embarrassing to almost faint) and went and lay in the car, so i missed all the high-jinx with this little minx who has stolen my son's heart LOL..apparently, she pushed him across in his chair, sat beside him, leant over the table and said..'oh hello, aaryn' he replied "grunt"..she then looks at Chrissie and says..."I'm Maddie, you may need to remember my name, I intend to become Aaryn's girlfriend!" flounced her hair and sauntered off. I'm so glad i wasn't there to witness that, i would have choked laughing. ANYWAY, the little minx was correct, they are now boyfriend and girlfriend. She even asked Aaryn to go with him..(i stupidly asked...go where??).It'll be ok, soccer season starts soon and like all true Footballer's Wives, she'll be left for dead on the sideline, crying into her glass of coke, wondering what she ever did to deserve such treatment. (i watch far too much english tv LOL)

• THE CAST IS OFF!!!! thankfully, today the doc gave the all clear and his cast came off, a bit before time, but Cam had to promise not to walk on it (yeah right) until he goes back on Friday for a review, so he's still on crutches and just a light bandage, but at least we wont be breaking our necks on his stupid pink leg as we walk past LOL. He will finally get to wear a pair of shoes (instead of one) i think i'm going to have to find his other sock, he's only had to wear one so far LOL, so i'll have to buy another pair (at nearly $10 a pair i had been putting this off lol). He's off to his first High School camp in 2 weeks so he's pretty pleased that the cast is off!

i think that's all for now, i had more but cant remember what it was now..

OOOPS

just a quickie because i was told to update LOL... Gary's sister has been to visit from WA. She's lovely, we all love her to bits. I took a few pics..why not LOL so will pop them on here later..She's very important person over there in WA, a doctor of psychology (ok, you can stop laughing now...yes, yes, she probably did analyse me and has probably used me for quite a few thesis LOL...but she loves me, she told me LOL)...ok that's that news.. last bit (because i said it would be very quick lol)....first blooper in quite a while...... a man came to my register today, bought 3 rubber balls, chatted for a bit, then walked out of the shop..i had a queue, there was a queue at the other 2 registers next to mine and I noticed the man had left his purchase behind..so i called out....EXCUSE ME SIR...YOU SEEM TO HAVE LEFT YOUR BALLS BEHIND.to which the man replied...I am always leaving them behind......everyone was in fits, i was mortified, my supervisor couldn't even look at me....even the manager got to hear about it and teased me in the tea-room...
