Happy Birthday to my baby

Today is Mr Almost 3's Third Birthday....So he is now Mr 3!!! Actually not really till 1334 today but hey, birthdays are an all day affair. It is strange to have no baby in the house any more with as by the time the others were this age there was a baby about so it is a very strange feeling. No!!! I am not contemplating another.
I am not that selfless that I am able to do the night feeds, walking the floor and such with the unquestionable dedication that I hear others doing. Although I read about a book titled the "Myths of Motherhood" or such and how we all hate the sleep deprivation, the confinement ,the routine, etc and that it is really HARD WORK and psychologically and physically draining and anyone who tells you otherwise or neglects to tell you the 80% bad stuff is perpetuating the myth.

Anyway, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY BABY BOY...Although he tells me he is not a baby but he will always be my baby. He was the last, he is the youngest, he is the happiest (for now) Just as Miss 8 is my baby girl because she was the first and is the only girl, Mr 5 is my baby boy because he was the first boy. They are and will always be ,my babies.

The decision to have a child is to accept that your heart will forever walk around outside of your body Posted by Picasa

Last Man Standing has stood

You may recall my slight fixation with a locally produced TV program "LAST MAN STANDING" which sadly and unfortunately was cancelled a few weeks ago and aired its last episode last night. Any one who wants some insight into the show, read the blurb on the link above it also has some great piccies of the very spunky (I think so anyway) Rodger Corser who plays Adam.

I am sorry the show has finished as it was a good Australian production, writing and casting...Despite my nit picking about location errors. I am sorry that I will no longer have my Tuesday night perve at half naked men,gasp at the audacity of machoism and chauvinism, revel in the reality of it in relation to real life situations, and swear at the sexism ...But then so are thousands of others who are just not game enough to admit this.

Like I said before it was like Sex In the City for men, but it's women who were the majority viewers and some aren't ready to confront such realities head on yet. Goodby Adam, Cameron and Bruno you will be missed by some. And I hope Marieke Hardy writes another series soon!!!!!!!!!
