Mummy wont be doing this again!!

Getting out my wisdom teeth that is! Mummy had the unfortunate task of getting out ALL four wisdom teeth. I was very anxious about the whole thing so the lovely oral surgeon thought it best if I was completely asleep for the whole operation and get out all four at once so I did not have to go back again. I think the doctor knew he only had one chance with me so he wanted to get them all out while he could! Daddy took me to the surgery and waited patiently for it to be all over. When I first went in the anaesthetist went through the procedure and asked if I had any comments or questions so I did inform her of my phobia of needles and she reassured me everything would be okay but as we walked into surgery she did say to the surgeon and his assistant that we have "a patient who needs us to talk to her alot". So then both the surgeon and nurse started firing questions at me about family, children... and then the next thing I knew I was being woken up by the nurse to say it was all done. My first thoughts emotions were relief followed by tears while I was saying to myself "it is over, it is over, hold on I don't remember getting the needle." So once I was alert I was allowed to go home.

two days later

Daddy was fantastic! He cooked, cleaned, made school/kindy lunches, did the school/kindy run, homework, bathing, played lots of uno with the kids AND looked after mummy. It was so nice knowing that everyone and everything was being taken care off. And thanks to Noonie for also helping out on the two days Daddy had to go to work and also on the weekend. You were both so good to me.

This is definitely one experience I will never forget and one that I know I will never have to experience again.

one of the best days of my life...

I love my family. And there is nothing I like better then spending my birthday doing things that make my angels happy. For my last birthday we went for a train ride into the city to look at 'Santa Land', the Myer windows and the BIG christmas tree AND ice cream! Matt had the wonderful idea to take Mummy to Cold Rock in Southbank (as he has only ever seen a cold rock there!) for a birthday ice cream cone. So we decided to make a day off it. So as tradition Noonie joined us for the day. We got an early train into the city so we could beat the crowds at Santa Land. The kids were able to have a ride on the train around 'Santa Land' and they received a special golden ticket in which BJ was not letting go of. We headed down to look at the Myer windows which the kids absolutely loved. There was so much to look at with all the intricate details of North Pole in action. We stopped and had morning tea at the BIG christmas tree (which does not look that big to me anymore!) and the kids thought it was fantastic. Once our tummy's were full it was time to walk across the bridge to Southbank for our ice cream. Matty absolutely loved being the one to instigate this and Daddy gave him the money to pay which just made his grin even bigger. We then went on a ferry ride as this is one of Mummy's favourite things to do. We all really enjoyed sitting on the top deck watching the world go by - or should I say Santa go by on his jet ski! The kids thought this was hilarious. So after a full morning we headed back to the train station for our journey home so we could rest and get ready for a FULL evening. It started out with the Christmas Eve service at church followed by a beautiful homemade Mongolian BBQ with family that Daddy so wonderfully prepared before concluding the night with christmas lights. I had the BEST day ever! I love you all xxxxx
