HAPPY CHAPPY!

I have got myself a job! That's right..me! haha i am quite proud of myself actually.

A few weeks ago i was looking on the net at a job search site just for casual jobs going around our area, when i came across a job for a casual sales assistant at a jewellery store called Bevilles.
So i thought that i would send my resume off & see what happens.

Well i didn't hear anything for about 3 weeks so i figured they didn't even want me for an interview. (they said on the web that due to the number of applicants only people that have been short-listed will be contacted)
so anyway one day i got a call on my mobile from a lady at Bevilles wanting to do a phone interview! i totally wasn't expecting it & had charlii yelling in the background so i thought that i did really crap & that was my chance blown.
at the end of the conversation she then asked if i would like to come into the city for a 2 hour group interview!!! 2 hours!
so i went in & there were 12 people including me, plus 3 other sessions of interviews. in my group there were quite a few people who seemed to be very confident & would have been great for the job so i wasn't very confident that i would get through.
I went for the interview on Saturday & they said that we would hear back either way by the following Friday, well it came to the following Monday (3 days late) & i still hadn't heard a thing! needless to say i was checking the post for my rejection letter.
anyway to cut a long story short i got a phone call on the tuesday from the same lady who rang me in the beginning asking me how i thought the interview went. she then offered me the job! yeehaa!
i started on the job training last saturday & on the 9th of June i have a full day of diamond training.
i will let you know how i go!

SICK, SICK, SICK

Well i guess because Melbourne is so cold at the moment (ok well one day cold, then the next day hot....typical Melbourne weather) there are plenty of viruses & bugs flying around everywhere!
Clint is sick at the moment & of course he thinks he is dying. lol
How come when men get sick they think that their entire body is shutting down?!
So he is constantly blowing his nose & sniffling so i think that anyday now i am going to wake up with a cold as well.

Charlii has been pretty good although the last few days i have noticed that she is throwing up a lot, which is not like her at all. I kept an eye on it & just thought that it was her body's way of telling her that she would rather eat solid food over her bottles (cos she hasn't been finishing her bottles the last few days)
so i didn't think that much of it until she started sneezing lots. Her nose went a bit red & she was sneezing all the time.
So just to be on the safe side i decided to take her to the doctors today to get everything checked out.
It turns out that she has a little bug which was making her throw up but nothing to be over concerned with. That in turn has made her immune system go down which has then caused her to get thrush in her mouth. Poor little thing, the doctor assured me that it's not serious & that anyone can get thrush at any time. A little gel to rub on it & it will be gone in a jiffy!
Hopefully all these horrible bugs will be gone soon & we will all be healthy again.
So Charlii is tucked up in bed at the moment sound asleep so it's not bothering her which is good, just want to get it all cleared up!
:)

MOTHER'S DAY

Firstly i want to wish everyone a Happy Mother's Day.....i hope you had a lovely day.

So this year was my first Mother's Day & i was quite excited about it.

Unfortunately Clint got called into work from 11am until 12:30am so he wasn't home to spend the day or night with us which was a bit disappointing, but it can't be helped.

Clint found out last night that he had to work so we decided to have dinner together & celebrate Mother's day last night. So i sent him off to get Chinese Take out while i bathed Charlii & got her ready for bed.

About a week ago Clint decided that he couldn't wait until mother's day to give me my present so he gave it to me early (he can never wait until the actual day, he always gets too excited...haha)

To my surprise I got this unbelievable Digital Camera! Clint knows how often i am taking photos so it was the perfect gift! I was so happy, spent the next hour trying to figure out how to use it! i think i have nearly mastered everything it can do.

So because i wasn't going to see Clint today he gave me my other little gifts last night which were very thoughtful. I got a mug which is purple & had M M on it.

I was a bit confused because it had no U? I looked at Clint & asked him where the U went. He turned around & poured boiling hot water into it. Slowly the mug began to turn pink & the U was a yellow heart! it was great...so clever.

I also got a silver photo frame which said on the front "I Love My Mum" Absolutely gorgeous!

i was very spoilt.

Charlii & i went out to the markets this morning with mum & dad & had a coffee & a look around which was nice. We came home about lunch time & Charlii was so exhausted so i put her to bed. This afternoon we just played with her blocks, watched a bit of Hi 5 & had lots ofcuddles.

Overall a pretty nice, relaxing day.

2 TEETH

So it hasn't stopped yet, the teething pains are still hurting Charlii :(

But the good news is, is that she has popped out another tooth so now she has 2. She looks so very cute because they are both on the bottom at the front & when she smiles that's all you can see.

Her gums at the top are starting to get lumpy so hopefully in a couple of months she will have some more teeth but at the top this time.

She is doing really well other than the teething, eating lots, growing big & getting so very very cheeky. (as you can probably tell in the photo)
