LETS START THE DAY IN A NICE WAY

And that is so easy to do... just by showing some cute Phantom photos... while we still have him here!

 

ABOVE:  Coco plays with him fairly nicely, but sometimes she gets a bit rough... and we have to tell her off!



 ABOVE:  Phantom... he's such a delight!  Full of life and fun.

ABOVE:  He's so funny!  And CUTE, CUTE, CUTE!

ABOVE: yep, the little bugger found me new sneakers were nice to chew on.  Lucky for him I'm not 'precious' about me sneakers.

ABOVE:  A couple of really nice ones with Stew and Phantom.

ABOVE... lastly... a cute one of puppy and Steve.

That's it for now!

We have to go out this morning... and this afternoon and evening we have Miss Keera to stay.  That is going to be lovely.

I read a Singaporean girl's blog... she sews like me... and she posted something that I wanted to put on my blog... so with Jane's permission:

10 things you should know

1. Any food offered to you with a "this is good for you" is sure to taste horrible.

2. Whenever someone starts a sentence with "No offense but..." you know you're going to get pretty offended. Same goes for "Nothing personal but..." Yes, it will be very personal.

3. The person who says "I don't mean to pry..." means to pry. Very much.

4. The person who says "I'm not trying to be mean..." is being mean. Very mean.

5. When you hear yourself saying "I hope I'm not boring you...", yes, you are.

6. If you say "It's for your own good" to your teenager kid, it's bound to end very badly.

7. When anyone says to you "I hope you are happy now" or "Are you happy now?" you know the person really wants you to be miserable.

8. Never tell a bad mother she's a bad mother. Especially if you're her kid.

9. Never tell a horrible kid he's/she's a horrible kid. Especially if you're his/her mom.

10. Anytime someone says "I'm not a racist but..." is sure to say something very racist.

I found her list rather good reading.

ONWARD...

KAREN:  in answer to your question, the puppies will be a similar size to Teddy and Coco.  Small to medium in dog size.

Tired of puppy photos?  Well let me rectify that ....

ABOVE: here we have Miss Keera, Granddad and our wee friend Sofia Grace ... ALL of them looking very pretty in pink!

ABOVE:  Sofia Grace has just turned 1, it has been lovely seeing this special wee girl growing.  She was a much wanted, hard fought struggle for her Mum and Dad to bring her into this world.  Special.  And Precious.

ABOVE:  Jaquie and her gorgeous little Sofia Grace.

ABOVE: she's a little imp.. and has just learnt how to 'bum shuffle' around ... and apparently she can go really fast!  She is wearing holes in her pants.  lol

ABOVE: leg dents.  This is what fluid retention looks like... since the Dr told me to stop taking my piddle pills!  My legs, feet, hands and face have all swelled up ... NOT a pretty sight in the morning I can tell you.
AND now as I'm not taking the pills, I pee maybe twice a day?  The rest just settles in me feet/legs mostly. 
I am going to talk to the Dr about what other alternatives I can take?

I think I over fed Miss Muppet!  In the last hour she has thrown up on my right shoulder... then half an hour ago she did a MASSIVE throw up all down my front.. and it settled in me lap!  And just now.. she was nuzzling me neck and threw up on my left shoulder and it ran down into me AMPLE cleveage!  All in an hour.  NICE ONE BABY.  Talk about sharing her lunch.

AWWWW CHRISTY:  Diet Coke is 99.9% WATER.  Right?  And I first got bad fluid retention 23 years ago... when I did not even drink Diet Coke.

TRACY: she wasn't 'sick' as such... just too full!  Poor poppet... she's sound asleep now... and I need a shower... *smiles*

I got a bit distracted tonight on the computer... so after I had given wee Keera her bottle at about 6pm I gave her to Stew to hold while I was 'just a minute' on the computer. .... and yeah... 2 HOURS LATER... I realised what the time was!!!  Our baby was SOUND ASLEEP in her Granddad's arms.   Awwww... naughty Grandma.  lol
So I changed her nappy, fed her some veges and now she's down (hopefully !) for the night.

ABOVE:  so darling ... the love of my life and my very special little granddaughter.  I DELIVERED HER... I will NEVER forget that moment as long as I live.  It was AMAZING.  She looks rather comfy there ... it was a shame to wake her up.

End of Day:  slowly getting over the sick feeling in me tummy.  Looking forward to tomorrow, for no other reason than it means Stew is home with me.
