Quade Cooper is certainly not one of my favourite players, too reminiscent of Carlos Spencer for my liking.zenmoonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29235839.post-87819330401259446892012-02-15T19:31:18.536-08:002012-02-15T19:31:18.536-08:00@Zenmoo, oh wow.

Cooper isn't one of them!<br /><br />@Nicoleandmaggie- oh, I HATED the middle of the night wake ups when pregnant with Petunia. I was so tired from work and taking care of Pumpkin, and it just seemed so unfair that I couldn't just sleep. Your idea of getting something productive done is better that what I did, which was mostly just pout.Cloudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09317847285050447789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29235839.post-14171035078360661862012-02-15T04:41:39.736-08:002012-02-15T04:41:39.736-08:00Wait until she figures out that when you take the ...Wait until she figures out that when you take the hats/hair off you can stack them on top of each other for a giant lego totem. "Zoommmmmbieeessss... zommmmbieeees" (I think he picked that up from us watching Middleman.)<br /><br />DC weaned on his own too. Slow and easy. It's funny how the laziest way to do something always works out for us.<br /><br />DC wanted to make his own valentines until we got to the grocery store and saw the wealth of store-bought valentines. (He picked Mr. Happy.) Despite the school instructions saying, "please do not bring candy" he got a box full of candy. And temporary tattoos.<br /><br />At week um... 16? 17? Whichever one is red onion rather than avocado... I'm starting to do the wake every 3 hours when the baby decides its time to play thing (just like hir fetus big brother). I'd forgotten about this. So far I've been forcing myself back to sleep but I really ought to make sure I have work on the computer that can be done. I had reading but didn't want to wake DH with a light. I was super productive last pregnancy... but I was also allowed to sleep in. Maybe I should start taking pick-up instead of drop-off.nicoleandmaggiehttp://nicoleandmaggie.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29235839.post-54466252462854861372012-02-15T01:16:50.811-08:002012-02-15T01:16:50.811-08:00I'm pretty sure my husband considers the Austr...I'm pretty sure my husband considers the Australia vs NZ semifinal a highlight of last year too. And we have a copy of that on the dvr too. Unlike the final - which although NZ won, was ENTIRELY too stressful and perhaps best not thought about in too much detail.<br /><br />We were having a hilarious conversation at dinner the other night with Moo - Dr DK was asking her a series of questions... (All blacks or wallabies, thongs or jandals, black or yellow, kookaburras or kakapo...) and Moo actually did quite well in providing the required response until her Daddy asked "Dan Carter or Quade Cooper" and Moo replied with confidence "Cooper!" DK was quite disgusted, and I was highly amused - especially when I was reading Moo's bedtime story and realised one of the stories she's been reading recently features a teddy bear called "Cooper". So it's ok, she's not actually expressing a preference for annoying Australian rugby players.Zenmoohttp://zenmastermoo.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
