Update from Clare

Hey girlies I have had a very productive weekend! On Saturday we did Dad's marathon, well actually alll last week i was helping with the marathon, we had to make 70 lunch packs on Friday night, not much fun!!!

Then i was an official, how exciting, Paul was the officiql photographer and molly was the star attraction for entertainment! Needless to say we all selpt like babies on Saturday night, well except for my bladder! Yesterday we spent the entire day in the garden, the two next door neighbours who walk theri cat on a lead jumped over the fence and brought their chainsaw and helped us clean up the back part, they have been itching to do something about it since the O'connels lived there!! They were always offering to help trim teh trees! So there is now light in the kitchen, the fijoa trees got a real trim and we cut down the rotten silver birch, teh necterine tree and trimmed a whole lot more!

I think they were keen to cut down more but it was getting late! I managed to weed all of my front garden, to the best of my ability and cleaned up my lemon tree who was looking very sorry for himself! Unfortunately i managed to burn myself to a crisp, i did put sunscreen on but not in the right places, as i was too interested in Molly, who had by this point painted herself in sunscreen, and it is a thick white one for kids so you can see where you have been, so she was very sunsmart. she also managed to tip my lavender oil everywhere, which was hidden in a drawer and got the childproof cap off some paracetmol for kids, and pour half a bottle of bubble bath in to the bath- it was a hint that worked well.She had a very bubbly bath!!!

So yes i was a very busy wee bunny! I am paying the price for it now though, as my back is killing me and i had weird birthing dreams all night, i think i may have been having braxton hick contractions! I went tot the midwife on Friday an the baby is breech so i have to do some acupressure which actually does make teh baby move a lot, so hopefully on Friday when i go again she will be engaged....not long to go now!

I am working tonight, just the deep fryer as they have a large amount of people coming in at 530, which isn;t so bad, Mondays are a 930 pm finish and i would quite like the cash I have to pay off the layby's from Kmart for christmas! Please don't buy us pressie this year as i am too unorganised!

I haven;'t even sent Emily's birthday present and she was one on Nov the 4th, bad bad auntie, its sitting in the car but i keep forgetting to bring Fionas addresss iwth me! I have also packed my bag for the hospital, but not Molly's yet! She will be heading to Nana's for that night! WEll thats my roundup!

Love you guys CLareyp
