just a ramble

[bookaddict43]

Christmas is fast approaching and I have done nothing!!!!! I bought some cute Australian type Christmas cards to send my flisters and now can't find them; and my mother is due for her annual visit on Wednesday and the house looks like a bomb hit it!

Now my mum doesn't expect spotless house-keeping from me ever. She knows her daughter well. But both she and I do have a level of cleanliness I aspire to. And I haven't met it!!!! God knows if I can squeeze in any cleaning these next few days either *sigh* and I want to have the sunroom clean before putting up the Christmas decorations...

Though, in happier thoughts - My mum is going to be here till March! *dances* Yes I know you think it's weird. A 46 year old still wanting her mum, but I love having her here and look forward to it every year. Usually she only comes for about 4 or 5 weeks, but this year is going to stay till we go down South for the State Titles for Surf Club.

There's nothing like being premature! We don't even know that the little guy, although everyone in the club assures me he will, will get into the Titles. On the basis of that, I've booked accommodation and bought airfares already. Cross your fingers for us!

Check out behind the cut for a look at a very rare moment



The little guy being both still and quiet!!!!!!!

My friend took this shot the day she took the LG and his mate to the Botanical Gardens.

Aww! He's so cute! and if the math cute = trouble holds, then he must be a handful!

I hope you and your mum have a great time together. I don't think it's the least bit weird, my mom lives an hour and a half away and she's here at least once a month.

cute = trouble You're so right *grins*

My goodness, he's gonna be a heart-breaker when he gets older. *g*

And it is not weird to want your mom around, not at all. I'd freak if I didn't live within 20 miles of my family, srsly.

Thanks for thinking I'm not weird *hugs*

he's gonna be a heart-breaker when he gets older I fear this! But so far he hasn't realised that the blond hair, blue eyes and surfer body are going to be a chick magnet! :D

He's...he's..... SITTING STILL!

*faints in shock*

[bookaddict43.livejournal.com]

He's...he's..... SITTING STILL! I Know!!!!!!! *contemplates Nirvana* Isn't it awesome? LOL

[mercsgoodgirl.livejournal.com]

He's such a beautiful kid, Fran, and you've done a fantastic job with him!

Why not put some of that bottomless energy to use having him help you with the cleanup. I think mums do the world (and other women) a dis-service when they don't teach their sons how to clean properly and there's no time like the present. What a great way to channel that energy!

Mom's are wonderful! I don't know what I'd do without mine just down the street. *is not afraid to admit it*

That's a great shot, too. He looks so intrigued. :)

Intrigued can be dangerous!!!!!!

Just work on a small section everyday. Easier said than done, I know. I unusually just wait until last minute and let panic motivate me.

I bet it’s going to be nice to have the extra company and help!!!

That’s a really great pic. He looks so contemplative. And handsome. Sometimes I wonder what would happen if Ash and LG ever meet. Hurricane force winds? ;-p

"Sometimes I wonder what would happen if Ash and LG ever meet. Hurricane force winds? ;-p"

Totally. We might need to keep a firetruck handy. *winkies*

It's because they're both too smart for their age, and bored...poor guys.

What is LG into anyways? *curious* Transformers? Pokememon? Stuff like that.

[bookaddict43.livejournal.com]

He likes the Transformers and TNT on TV at the moment. But I have a hard time keeping him inside! At the moment he's intrigued with rocks and goes looking for pretty ones everywhere. Then there's the bugs - he loves them :D

Your mum... my dad. I totally get it.

[bookaddict43.livejournal.com]

*grins*

[wildannuette.livejournal.com]

Aw, he's so cute! Looks angelic but with kids...

Nothing wrong with wanting your mum, no matter the age *hugs*

[bookaddict43.livejournal.com]

Cuteness can sometimes be over-rated! :D

[elsibet34.livejournal.com]

None of us can ever quite hit Mom's standards on everything. No worries. :)

Crossing fingers. Check.

O. M. G. That's what he looks like when he's not moving 100mph? *laughs* I just had flashbacks to my going all cringey when he was flinging about his Con pass. *is dork* You know, your friends are right. He will be a heart breaker someday.

[bookaddict43.livejournal.com]

He hasn't realised yet how cute he is - I hope it takes him forever!!! *grins at you* He doesn't often stop the 100mph thing - this was a rare moment indeed...

[bookaddict43.livejournal.com]

Isn't he adorable? But trouble *grins*

He's so big now, his feet are bigger than mine and we never know whose socks belong to who :DD
