bunbury area

[mothergoosewannabe]

I have just moved to the bunbury area and i am looking at meeting new people. I have a DD who is in school and is 5. And my DS is nearly 3. He is your typical boy ( i hope lol) and full of life and adventure. Anyone in the area who can help with tips or has a like minded son around the same age i would love to chat.
thankyou:wave:

Hi :wave:

I live just outside Bunbury, dont have any kids yet but hoping too soon!!

If you ever fancy a chat maybe we could meet for a coffee at Henry's or in the forum?

Drop me a PM if you're interested :)

[JettsMummy]

a few friends and i were going to start up our own mothers group :idea: because we didnt want to take our kids to the big ones held by milligan house. they always seem to catch some kind of bug when they go there! anyways you can pm me if you wanna catch up!!

[Mummamel]

Mel

[JettsMummy]

hey mel :hugs: we should make a time to all catch up for coffee and chat :ecomcity: ! somewhere big enough for a few prams lol :laughing:

[Bubble*Crazy]

Hey :wave: ! I'm just out of Bunbury too.

Would love to meet up!

I have a 6 y/o DD and a 4 month DS.

[JettsMummy]

ok girls sounds good whens a good time for everyone? im free except for the weekends when i have to go to work ;)

[Bubble*Crazy]

Maybe not this week ... already booked out solid! (So much for my boring SAHM life!:laughing:) but maybe midweek (Tues/Wed morn) next week? Is the forum the go being more central ... otherwise I'm happy to travel out your way?

[HollyHotLips]

Hi JettsMummy, I am in Australind too - at Treendale.

A coffee meet sounds good, this week no good for me as we have been away for a few days and desperately trying to get caught up with my workload!!!

next week should be OK, Bunbury Forum is probably more central for everyone, or there's a coffee place in Eaton Fair?

I'll keep my eye on this thread and go with whatever you decide..... :)

[mothergoosewannabe]

i am all eager for meeting as well!!! Next week sounds good, maybe Wednesday would be good for me as DS has daycare. LOL. But any day would be good really.will watch thread with a lot of interest!

[Mummamel]

Tuesday I am free after 11 (and one child less coz oldest is at daycare) and weds I dont think I am doing anything, but it depends on what movie is on at the cinema lol if its a kids one I will be there. Thursdays I do nothing either :smiliedance:
I am on messenger if anyone wants to add me
mummamel@hotmail.com

[JettsMummy]

hi girls.. so is that a wednesday is good for all of us? at the bunbury forum? i may be working in the morning could we make it after lunch?

[Bubble*Crazy]

That should be fine ... I will need to leave just after 1.30pm though as DD finishes school @ 2pm.

[JettsMummy]

if you guys dont mind waiting till the end of the week i will find out from my boss when im working and then we can make a time? wednesday sounds great but i dont want you to have to rush off because of me! im just not 100% sure where im at with work at the mo, but i cant wait!! :smiliedance:

[HollyHotLips]

Sounds good to me, I'll only be able to come for an hour or so though as work piling up here!!

[JettsMummy]

hey girls im working wed night so free wed morning! have we decided when and where?

[mothergoosewannabe]

So we all agree it could be on this wednesday. What time should we make it? Like Jetts mum i would prefer morning as i have an appointment at 1pm. So i will go out on a limb --------> How about we make it 10am at the Birdcage(i think that is what it is called) at Bunbury Forum? And anyone who wants to come will come?!?!? Maybe? Oh i do hope so:fingerscrossed: I don't have a ribbon to be identifed with so i will just be the average haggered looking mum, who needs to lose some weigh but generally looks sane. :laughing: Oh and i will probably be looking around nervously, making people think i am waiting for someone and look very lost! LMAO

Just like me!

Sounds good - I'M IN!!! I've got some ribbons - haven't used them yet :o, but I'll bring them along to share :D

[JettsMummy]

:yelclap: yay wednesday at 10! I'm in. And i'll bring my friend crystal too. Its good to meet other mums. Sometimes I feel like the only adult conversation I get is from my hubby who is rarely listening anyway!

[Mummamel]

I have baby beats in the morning at 10. But I will stop by after it finishes (at 11) and see if you are still there tho!!
Otherwise I hope to catch up with you all next time!

[JettsMummy]

mummamel what is baby beats?

we could probably make it 11 if you want to come?

[Mummamel]

Baby beats is like this music thingy we do at milligan house every tuesday. We sing nursey rhymes and songs with our bubs.
Mel :)

[Bubble*Crazy]

Is it Tues or Wed you have baby beats? We were meeting on Wed, otherwise I'm happy to change to 11am. I'm easy.

[Mummamel]

Gosh, I am having such a blonde day today (and im not even blonde)!!!....I have already put the milk in my pantry this morning....
Ok, I have baby beats tomorrow which is tuesday...not wednesday haha OOPS...
I will be there at whatever time it is on wednesday rofl
Mel

[JettsMummy]

lol ok so its still 10 am on wed morning at the birdcage cafe :thumbsup:

mummamel i'd love to do that baby beats thing.. ive never been to milligan house.. can you just go up there anytime?

[HollyHotLips]

Ok will see you then, hope you will be waving the ribbons about so I know who you all are!?! :idea:

[JettsMummy]

hi girls i dont have ribbons but i always wear a ribbon in my hair!

[Mummamel]

you wont miss me with my double pram haha
I have managed to convince my 3 yr old to go to the cafe on weds....bribing him with a milkshake if he behaves himself hahaha

[JettsMummy]

lol @ the double pram. i downgraded to a stroller because its so much easier to get in and out of the car!

[Mummamel]

lol least you can do that!
Unfortunately if I dont have Orion in the pram he likes to run off from me which is why I got the double pram lol
I normally only go out to the shops on a tuesday or friday when Orion is at daycare coz then I only need the pram for Saxon! Sooooooo much easier :D

[JettsMummy]

oooh yep i understand.. i know its terrible but if jett is a runner im going to put him in one of those brace things. i know so many people disagree but id rather have him in one than lose him. i would be hysterical if i couldnt find him! my niece is a runner. and shes a fast one too! i borrowed my niece for the day so i could see how i would cope with 2 kids...... I am not mentally or emotionally strong enough!!!

[Mummamel]

haha When you actually have 2 of your own you will be surprised at how well you actually do cope!!!
When you have someone elses kid to watch you are a bit more stressed than normal coz its not your own!
Orion has been walking since 7 months old and has been VERY full on. I used to have a harness for him but now he is bigger he has figured out how to get out of it. I used to get all sorts of bad looks from people when I was walking with him in it, at first I was a bit self concious but then i just didnt give a f&*k. You would be surprised the amount of grannies who were praising me for using it lol!!
But Orion normally tends to want to stay in the double pram when we use it which is great!!

[HollyHotLips]

[quote=Mummamel;658976] I used to have a harness for him but now he is bigger he has figured out how to get out of it. I used to get all sorts of bad looks from people when I was walking with him in it.quote]

Why?

If you mean those harnesses so the kid can walk and parent holds onto it I think they're a great idea, cant understand why people give nasty looks..... :confused:

[JettsMummy]

yeah i know a lot of people say they look like dogs being walked and i think that is a stupid thing to say. if it keeps your kids safe its ok by me!! jett will have one.. whether other people like it or not.. i need to know hes not running off into traffic (and as we know, turn your back for a sec and they're off!) or being kidnapped. too many bad things have happened to littlies lately and im a bit over the top but pretty determined it wont happen to mine!

[HollyHotLips]

I'm afraid I'll have to give today a miss as I've got absolutely loads of work that's come in over night :(

Will definitely make it to the next one though..... enjoy :)

[JettsMummy]

i think we're going to have the next one in an open space! lots of prams and lots of beautiful bubs!!

[Mummamel]

sounds good lol

[mothergoosewannabe]

I just want to say thankyou to you all for today. :yelclap: I had a lot of fun and it was good to put faces and bubs to names. I look forward to the next one and hope to chat with you all again soon.:hugs:

I am starting to go slowly insane not being able to talk to other adults without making long distance phone calls over east.

Yes! I am a Bunbury mum and looking for other Mummies with similar aged children to my daughter (she will be 3 in February) and I am pregnant with #2, due in April. I am 28 and a full time Mummy. Would love to meet up with Mums with well-behaved, polite, gentle and friendly children.
