Tis the Season to be Wheezin

Just when we thought it was safe to un-label Miss Angelface as an asthmatic, along comes a night of coughin & a wheezin........ So it's off to the medical centre where she's back on the trusty old nebuliser & back to the puffer for a month. Luckily, they take it seriously & she is seen to straight away. Mind you, King Carlyboy was a little underwhelmed by Miss AF's amateur dramatics.

We were feeling pretty smug really, it's been a few years since we've had to deal with this, so we were thinking that she may have outgrown it. NOT.

I can't think how many times Miss AF has endured hospital stays for this bloody thing that ties her up in knots & seeing her little body work so hard for breath ~ it's just not fair peoples. But she always bounces back, whilst King Carlyboy & I schlep around looking like we're been worked over by thugs ~ it takes us longer to recover after juggling work, home & hospital for the duration.

This time around, a chest infection is the culprit that has lead to the asthma coming in for a visit. I hope it's not a sign of things to come, coz historically she's more a summer asthmatic.

It's damn cold & it's like autumn has left the building & winter has come on down. How do you keep up with the cold & damp & one girl who is busy busy busy all the time? Even better, Miss Fairygirl got her v. own puffer prescription last week, so we have to stay on top of that situation too.

I don't get this whole asthma thing ~ King Carlyboy & I don't have it, so it hardly seems fair that our girls have it.

I know, whine time on my behalf, but hey, it's my blog & I'll whine if I wanna.

Trash Talkin' ~ 2 Year Old Style

What is LMAO funny?!?

A 2 & a bit year old Miss Fairygirl hanging out our front window laughing HA HA repeatedly (think the Simpsons Nelson style) & pointing to the poor Intermediate school kids who have to schlep past our front door on "cross country training"runs this weel. Personally I think it's a secret teachers chardy break , but as I have no firm evidence, it will remain a theory......

Miss Fairygirl has also mastered the art of the Sooky La La trashtalk. HIL.ARI.OUS. Especially when directed towards King Carlyboy.

step 1 - Say sooky la la over & over
step 2 - Make crying & whinging motions on face repeatedly
step 3 - Laugh at recipient of the sooky la la

Aaaaahh ~ she's a klassy leetle laydee.

List of Stuff You May Or May Not Need To Know.

TV
The junkier & cheesier it is, the better, in my world. Reality tv ~ yes please. Watching taped shows & fast-forwarding the ads? Priceless.

NANA NAPS
Not just forleetle old laydees....

COFFEE MAMA, ALBURY
Miss those red stools on a Saturday morning. Miss Angelface was 3 days old & Miss Fairygirl was 5 days old on their first visit to this coffee den. They may have coffee running thru their veins.

HOT CINNAMON DOUGHNUTS
God's gift to our tastebuds. amen.

SMOOCHES
One of my favouritest words ever. Can't get enough of them from my family. From the tummy- flippin smooches from King Carlyboy to the generouse slurply supplies from Misses Angelface & Fairygirl.

MUMMY
Is there a cuter sound that a little voice calling your name? Well, obviously it isn't sometimes like when you've just settled in for a nap.....

BUBBLES
Sparkling wine for the Aussies. Takes the edge off, especially when poured by someone else.

CHOCOLATE
mmmmmmmmmm. more please, unless of course it's a little salty something that I need, then bring on the chippies.

HOUSE-CLEANING FAIRIES
Where are you & why are you so late in coming to my house?!? I'll be good I promise.

DRIVING
I dont. Am useless really. Don't know why, just am.

STOCKING UP FOR WINTER
I've already started on the next 3 winters already. Help!

CHRISTMAS
I.am.a.christmas.junkie.

JAMES & AUGUST HOODIES
Comfort dressing, bright colours, I wonder how many hoodies can my wardrobe hide, I mean hold? As many as I can cram in kiddies!

$1 WEEKLY DVDS
Love the cheap deal & Love even more handing them back after a week of Maisy Maisy Mouse on high rotation.

ANTHEA TURNER & MARTHA STEWART
2 Domestic Goddesses, love em', can't channel em' into my house. sigh.

HELL PIZZA
Best pizza ever. Well, that is if you can't get a genuine Saintly pizza made by King Carlyboy.

SKINNY JEANS
Hate em! they are no friend to the curvy laydees of the world. Burn them all.

WINTER BOOTS
I have 2 pairs thanks to the canny shopper eye of my King Carlyboy, they even fit over my pork chop legs -> yay.

MILK
Why do we need about 50 different types of milk people? Does the cow know this stuff?
