Camp Quality day out

Sunday the 15th of May we went to the circus thanks to Camp Quality giving families tickets, the Lions club put the circus on and a lot was for Flood Victims. this time is was a great day out and I took Hubby too :) I took the video camera this time to tape plus a fully charged camera for Photo's plus having Daddy makes getting drinks etc easier ♥ the girls both got a show bag from Camp Quality and this had small snacks, toy and drink as well. they both wanted a toy from the circus but we had no funds left til payday so they had to miss out :(. but they did get to enjoy the jumpy castle and ball pit :)





the girls are well we still have 2 weeks appropriately til next scan so we really enjoyed this time out.

Alex went back to school on the 27th April and loves school, they have moved her class back to the prep/ grade 1 room she was in last year for Prep as the school has lost 40+ students they had to let go of the prep teacher so they will be a combined class like most are at the school. Alex is doing well at school even with her small issues.

the cooler weather is also creeping in too so have been enjoying long pants hehe we get cold here but really only have a couple of weeks where it can go below 0 ( no snow etc no such luck for us to see that, but would be a dream come true ♥ ) the days are beautiful though sunny and around 20+ so you can get out and have fun without the added heat, this time last year we went to the beach for Alex's wish week and was swimming A LOT

Saturday the 14th we were supose to go to the Kite fest but due to low funds we could not go to that and the circus so circus it was, instead I took the girls to our local park and we met some school friends there as a surprise. was a little shaken when one young Lady said her mummy shaved her head like I did Alex so I had to explain she lost her hair to Chemo. then another pipes up quiet loudly that Alex had Cancer kids are funny but they have seen Alex since she had no hair til now so I moved on. we also met up with the school Chaplin Paster Francis.
when we got home the girls helped me wash the car  the had a ball doing it too.

this last week Alex has had a rash on her face at first it was thought to be Hand, Foot and mouth or similar turns out its a reaction to cold and maybe her toothpaste so we are trying to go back to the baby tooth paste for now and see if it stays away here is a photo you can see the chin rash :( and the sores that's are still slowly healing ♥ the dresses we got for the book fair school is having on the 25th May as Alex is growing out of her costumes we thought it nice to get a new one :)
Alex loves Sleeping Beauty and Robyn chose Snow White but once home wanted the same as Alex (off cause lol) but she is happy to have her own now ♥♥♥



I was suppose to post this on monday but we have had a long week with no internet access and plus I had a health scare with chest pains but now need to get help with my depression etc, we are good and need to just keep enjoying what we have,

Mothers day weekend

Happy Mothers Day to all the Mummies and Grand Mummies out there, it is mothers day here in Australia the 8th May 2011. the second Sunday of the month.

I would like to also say, hope those that are mums to Angels or still not mum's but would love a child hope you to have a great day as this is special for you all ♥♥♥

Saturday the 7th  was Hubbies Birthday to so we always try do a family thing on this weekend but as we are off to the circus next weekend we  just stayed home and play games and have fun together.we had Church on Saturday to look forward to but on Saturday morning Alex had head lice so I had to deal with that and we stayed home to deal with this, was something we did not look forward to as she had none Friday morning :-/  . Daddy got 3 books for his birthday and is set to retire into solitude to try read them, as if he will get any space as both girls love it when he is home. the girls made Daddy cards plus they made grandma some too for mothers day and her Birthday next week ♥  both girls went crazy on Saturday to and screamed the house down more than once, but by dinner time they had relaxed and played nicely and giggled

but I must congratulate him he has decided to give up smoking and this is week 2 almost finished  he is getting medical help as stress is still high for us, we have been told PTSD but I also know I have delayed greif for all I have been through  and I still have my princess to cuddle ♥♥♥

Alex is doing well but we are seeing signs of another absus starting to show on her gum this is an issue but her teeth are fine she is very good at cleaning so hope it will pass and not materialise but if I see it show up Ill be in the Dr's clinic for Anti-biotics to stop infection again and hope no teeth pulled this time,

Alex had her school Photo's done on Thursday I tried a concealer to hide some sores that are still on her face but it did lighten them just not hide them :(   they are just not healing like when she was under going treatment but she is healthy now so no idea why :(  I know the photographer will possibly tweak the photos but as I do not know him Ill do this for my peace of mind.

Sunday  "Mothers Day" was a good day girls both made something small for me and hid them til the morning and surprised me in bed ♥. Last year I got Alex's while we were on Make-a-wish week and OMG did I blubber  it was still raw how close we could have been to losing Alex that I just wanted to hold the gift tight and hide, it now is on my fridge with Pride ♥♥♥
This year I got a $50 gift card from Alex (she won it with Daddies help from our local shopping centre) a hoody bath robe and PJ's with Monkeys on it from everyone, a butterfly hanging from Alex and a wooden craft hanging from Robyn, plus hand make cards to go with them ♥ both girls used the words on the fridge to write "Happy Mother's Day" as well.

they also bought me in toast into bed ♥ so nice
