Marriage

Since the last post, Sebb is mostly still being cuddled to sleep, sigh, but he is sound asleep at the present in his bed and I DID NOT place him there after he fell asleep on me. SUCCESS!
(1 success out of 100 attempts isn't bad right?)
So some exciting news.. WE'RE GETTING HITCHED!
Long overdue but it is finally happening, the date is set, the invites are hopefully going to be sent out over the weekend and then comes all the other stressful parts about organising a wedding.
I wont deny it, I'm scared, terrified even. Can we pull a wedding together in 5 months, while organising my 21st, Christmas and new years? Can we afford too?

Where there's a will there's a way (that's what i keep telling myself anyway)

so no fancy proposal but my ring is fab-u-lous! J so chivalrously asked my father for my hand back in October 2009, its just taken us 2 years, a baby, a lot of house moving and stresses to get our act together and tie the knot, it will so be worth the wait though. Even if we weren't to get married it would make no difference, I have no doubt in my mind that he's the person i want to spend the rest of my life with.

So I have been browsing the web for cheap but amazing wedding ideas for decorations and invites and dresses and flowers, oh the list goes on!
I've found the Martha Stewart wedding website to be one of the GREATEST sites I've come across in my life!
We'll be using so many of the great ideas on there for our special day.
if anyone has any websites/ideas that they've found works really well please share! I may need all the help I can get.

Epic fail

Sebastian's been a bit under the weather the last few days so he's been cuddled constantly, sleeping in our bed and nursed to sleep. 
Today I thought, alright now your feeling better we'll get into routine again...he had other ideas.
He awoke at 5:50 am when he usually opens his eyes at 7, he's been dibble dabbling with his milk since he woke up just drinking when he pleases, 20 ml here, 80 ml there and he is my biggest nightmare when I try to put him down!
So 1:00 pm came around and I thought okay nap time, great I'll put him in his cot and let him settle on his own...20 minutes later he was still screaming, I'd been in his room at least 4 times trying to settle the guy!
I was about to loose the plot and was feeling quite terribly for the neighbours so my frustration got the better of me and I picked him up, laid him on my chest and within minutes he was out like a light! Monster I tell you!
I gently picked him up and placed him in his cot.

I officially fail at parenting and he wins at life.



If he sleeps for less then an hour I may lose my mind.

Sickly boy

Seabass is sick!
This is a rare occurance and I'm lost because i have no idea if he's got a cold or if hes teething!?
There are no teeth as of yet but plenty of teething symptoms. He has a raging temperature, tomato red cheeks and is sookier then all the sooks put togther.
It's 10 am and hes snoozing soundly in my bed. This in itself is odd as the boy usually sleeps an hour a day much to my dismay!
I cant help but think i have jinxed myself! It seems lately, every bad thought I have comes true, it's sending me BATTY! He doesnt like to miss out on things during the day so this makes napp time a crazy chore for me to do, so i was thinking to myself, geez wish he would catch a cold or something so the child would sleep and my house wouldnt look like a bomb site (I know bad mother)! and whadayano! he's sick!

So if anyone out there has any advice on sick infants or teething infants pleaseeee save my sanity!

oh and to top it all off, im out of panadol!
