lets get together soon!!!(toowoomba and surrounds)

[Lirael]

hi there all the toowoomba and surrounds mums and dads. who would like to have a meet up some time this month? i posted in another thread but only got one reply:( so i thought i would start another.


so i thought maybe scallywags or a picnic in queens park?

how bout we say when were avail and all choose a spot?



where have you all gone???

[mrsbutterflygirl]

I love the idea... i am available most days so anytime is good for me!

[lissiakisses]

Hi! Like i said in the other thread, I'm free just about any day. Xanthi goes to daycare on thursdays, but that won't stop me from coming!!! I just would love to get out of the house! So count me in!

[Lirael]

yay we have some replies!!! keep em coming gals

so where would be a good place to meet??

[lissiakisses]

I'm with you, cel on locations. Scallywags and Queens Park are our favourites! I'm easy with whatever is decided!

[Lirael]

cool well i thought maybe some ppl would prefer queens park cos scallywags does get a tad expensive if u have more than one especially if you want to eat there!! hopefully we can get something organised soon i would love to meet heaps of you bubhubbers

[lissiakisses]

Yeah Queens Park sounds good and cheaper! The fresh air will be good for the kids too! The days have been beautiful too - we should make the most of it! Hopefully you'll get some more responses so there'll be lots of people to meet!!

[Lirael]

any more interested in a meet?

[mrsbutterflygirl]

Queens Park sounds great to me too!!!

[Lirael]

yay that makes three of us so far:yelclap: waiting on more mummies where are you all?

[Shazbutt]

Hey ladies! :wave: I'm from Chinchilla, and have just started to venture to Toowoomba by myself :o . Depending on when it is, i wouldn't mind coming to meet you all! :yes: (Providing Queens Park is easy to find, as i'm not overly good at driving in crowded places....i know my way to the shopping centres and thats it so far! LOl)

Just let me know a date, and i'll see if i can make it! :thumbsup:

[Shazbutt]

Sheesh, looks like i scared everyone off! :rolleyes:

[mixinitup]

:wave: (gulp) ok count me in ladies, I really need to get out of the house,lol. The weather's great for it, queens park sounds like a plan. During the week is good for me too as I'm SAHM.
I have a little boy who's 13month's and know he would love a day in the park with other kids.:)

[Lirael]

shaz queens park is not too far from grand central on same road(margaret st) but im terrible with directions so i wont give u any hopefully someone is better than me:D im thinking maybe next wednesday or the week after? are these any good?

[Shazbutt]

Hi Cel :wave:

I have a map of Toooomba, so:fingerscrossed: i should be right with directions. Either wednesday is alright for me :thumbsup:, just let me know a time, as i'll have to get organised for the early 1 3/4 hour drive. Has anyone got more than 2 kiddies? I have a 3 yr old and a 1 yr old....

Will we each bring our own food to have, or a plate of something to share, etc?

[Lirael]

hmm im thinkin around 10 am if that suits obviously some of us have little ones that nap during day so we can make it earlier/later if need be. and i was thinking maybe just a plate each to share?? like we can all say what were bringing so we dont have everyone all bring the same thing:D

[Shazbutt]

Sounds alright to me! Mine will sleep on the way no matter what time, so 10 is fine. :yes:

[mixinitup]

Heya

10am is a great time for me too! Taking a plate to share is great idea too, was thinking i could bring some strawberries, bananna's, just a mix of fresh fruit? My kid is so into strawberries right now, had to cut him off as it was not agreeing with his bum:laughing:
Also was wondering if I could bring a friend? She has a little girl who's 23 months, but doesn't have a computer as yet....I know she would love to meet some new people too.
Anyways, can't wait to meet you all!:wave:

[Shazbutt]

I've also mentioned this thread to the 2 Dalby girls on bubhub, jasminesmum & Sarie.....to see if they are interested. I might bring a slice or cake of some sort if thats ok?

mixinitup, i know what you mean about the strawberries! My girls got a sore bum at first too! LOL

[Lirael]

yeah the more the merrier!!! is it possible for us to all make sure the stuff we bring is nut free just for the little ones? im going to bring some different dips and veges and crackers and i will bring a couple of bottles of water too-dont like the tap water they have at the park:no: so do we wanna make it this coming wednesday? or the one after?

[Shazbutt]

No nuts, no worries! LOL Either week suits me really....

Oh, and Sarie just let me know that she can't make it, she already has to travel there twice next week, so another trip is a bit much for her....she's interested in another one later on though!

[mixinitup]

Hey everyone,

Either wednesday is fine, just need a little notice for my mate, as she lives outta town too, not as far as you shazbutt tho! I agree with Cel the more the merrier!

Good idea about the nut free thing, my boy had peanut butter the other day and had a physical reaction of dislike to it:o DP and I are both vegimite kids....gee maybe I should maka poll about that......are you a vegemite or peanut butter?:eek:

Shazbutt>glad to know my kids not the only one obsessed with strawberries:laughing:
Can't wait to meet you all!

[lissiakisses]

Looks like there's gonna be a good group at the park! I'm really looking forward to it!!

Either wednesday is good for me, and 10am sounds perfect!

Mmmmm not sure what i'll bring yet, but i'll let you know soon!

[Lirael]

ok gals im thinking NEXT wednesday the 20th so we have ample time for those of us travelling into town. does this suit everyone??

[Shazbutt]

Suits me fine Cel, i'll be there! :thumbsup:

[mrsbutterflygirl]

Hi girls... if we could do the 20th that would be great... we have a couple of people from america staying with us this wednesday so it would mean i should be able to come if it's the 20th.

10am is fine for me.. my daughter probably wont play much as she is only 5 weeks lol but i would love to meet other mums in the area.

Can we do a list of everything everyone is bringing??? that way we wont double up???

can't wait! :thumbsup: :smiliedance:

[lissiakisses]

Wednesday 20th sounds good to me!

Still don't know what i'll bring (it's such a hard decision isn't it lol) but i''l let you know when i've made my mind up!

[Lirael]

ok so looks like 20th September at 10 am it is!! :smiliedance:


things we are bringing:

Cel- corn chips,ritz,salsa,carrot cucumber and celery sticks and dip, water, paper plates,napkins,cups and fork/spoon thingys

Shazzbutt-cake/slice

Mixinitup-strawberries and fruit

is that right so far??(i figured i would bring the plates etc cos i suggested it):D

[mrsbutterflygirl]

What can I bring???? any ideas?

[Shazbutt]

Sandwiches maybe? :confused: :o I'm gonna do some little mini muffins - pear and cinnamon ok?

[Lirael]

oooh yum!! yeah sandwiches are a good idea. :thumbsup:

[Lirael]

[lissiakisses]

I'll be there!

I think i'm going to bring a bacon, corn and cheese cob loaf.

[lissiakisses]

And i might have another mum coming with me too! if that's ok.

[mrsbutterflygirl]

I will be there,.. have no idea what i ill bring... wht part of the park are we going to meet at???? so that we know we are walking up to the right people lol

[Lirael]

queens park. just a thought, is the carnival over by wednesday?

[Shazbutt]

Maybe we should all wear something, so we know who we're meeting, like mrsbutterfly said?

I just realised how my post sounded.....yeah, it would be good if we wore something now wouldn't it....:o ;) No-one will want to meet me otherwise! :laughing: Deary me.....i make myself laugh sometimes.....

[Lirael]

the carnival is on now and im not sure when it ends. Im just thinking of how many people will be there and if maybe we should postpone til next week instead:confused:

[Miss_Vicki]

Hi im back I hang around then just get slack with the forums ,
Im interested but mabie not this week , My oldest is having a thing at grom park to wlcome the holidays lol :D

Would be interested in mabie meeting up :)

[mixinitup]

hey everyone,

Yes i'm still coming too. Cel not sure when the carnival finishes, isn't that funny that us locals don't know and don't go to the carnival:D I'm not one for big crowds either so am happy to postpone untill next week if carnival is still on.

:idea: How about we meet at the choo-choo train play area? it has two park tables right near it and plenty of shade.

Lissiakisses :smiliedance: bring on the cob loaf,lol!

Think I might phone around and see if anyone know's when the carnival is over:detective:

[Shazbutt]

I just edited instead of quoted my post above, so sorry it seems a bit weird now....:o:D

[Lirael]

Shazbutt, we all knew what u meant lol:D(how funny a bunch of nekkid mums in the park:laughing: that would draw some attention)

the train area sounds good mixinitup and I know, what good towns people we are to not even know when the carnival is. shame on us lol:laughing: let us know how you go finding out Im sure we all wouldnt mind pushing back a week to avoid the masses.

[mrsbutterflygirl]

I think it finished yesterday but dont quote me on that... the train sounds like a great idea.... just wondering if anyone wanted to watch the steve irwin memorial cause that is on wednesday.... if we wanted to postpone cause of that too.. i'm not too worried if i dont see it but some people might really like to watch it. it starts at 9am

[Lirael]

oh thats right! so what do we want to do everyone??:confused:

[Miss_Vicki]

hi again mabie theres no room for another toowoomba person ? anyways HI again im a at home mum or 2 girls , 7months an 5 1/2 yrs . i live in Harlaxton with my dp an kiddies ;)

[Lirael]

of course theres room for another toowoomba person!:wave:

[mixinitup]

Hello all

Well from what I've been told most of the carnival is over, tho it officially ends this weekend....I'm game if you guys are!:eek:

I won't be watching the Steve Irwin memorial...the only show my son lets me watch for more than 5 minutes is High 5;)

Shazbutt-lmao! hawwhawwbawaahaha, I'm hoping we're all clothed as well, otherwise I'll have to keep walking! I've had an interesting start to the week as well, a grumpy boy with 4 molars coming up, Mr Sookylala and today he had no nappy on and did a poo (there where evidence traces on his bum) and I'm still to find the poo......maybe he ate it:barf:

Hey Jaz's mum, welcome, pity you can't make it this week, but I'm sure we will have another one (that's if everyone wears clothes,lol)

So anyone getting cold feet? I'm pretty nervous about meeting you all, but excited too, the main thing is my son will make some new friends too:thumbsup:

[onesofar]

Anyhow, i just know how the 2 of them will go tomorrow if she's still cranky, and driving 2 hours isn't fun either....

I agree girls! The park was good fun!!

The best part was, Xanthi was in bed by 6.30 and slept all night! That's excellent since her normal bed time is around 9!

Well I shouldn't have said that was the best part. The best part was getting out of the house and meeting 2 gorgeous mums and their kids!!!

We'll have to do it again soon!!

[onesofar]

Hey guys,, sounds like you all had fun at the park. I will definately come next time. We'll have to do it soon. Glad it all went well for you all.
