omg i think the whole house-hunting can finally halt right now.
i am SO sick so looking on trademe, searching for new listings on a daily basis, hoping to find somewhere we both like.

to be honest, i am the picky one when it comes to getting a place to stay in. why? because the house has to be fairly new, and obviously must not smell and must look clean as well. especially the kitchen and bathroom. if neither of those look nice, i wont even look further around the house.

so today, the bf went to look at a house that i found on trademe yesterday after searching blindly. we drove there before i started my afternoon shift today and i quite liked it from the outside. for the price they were asking, it seems very decent, compared to all the other places we've looked at.

it's not 100% confirmed that we will be getting that place (even though the owner has said yes), as we haven't signed any official documents and he wants to meet me and junior tomorrow. yes, pets are allowed and the owner seems to like dogs as well =)

once everything has been signed and confirmed for, i will let you all know the details, and that sure calls for a celebration - HOUSE WARMING! yeayaaaa!!

junior is all cuddled up in bed beside me while i'm time-wasting online. he's been pretty goof lately with his toilet habits, esp in our room where he only toilets on the newspaper. but every now and then, there's an accident here and there but i really dont mind that. afterall, he's only 3 months, going on 4 months old.

so since he's been go good with his toilet habits, i've taken it one step further with him by letting him cuddle with us at night before sleeping. he'll usually fall asleep immediately while on the bed with us, and we know this by his litting snores. it's soooo cute =p but anyway, usually about 3-5 hours later, he'll start shuffling around which is his sign to go toilet. so i'll carry him and chuck him onto the floor and he'll go to the newspaper to toilet. he'll then move to either his bed or one of our laundry baskets to fall asleep in till morning comes around.

when his daddy's alarm goes off, he'll wake up, run to my bedside and wait to be picked up to be put back in bed again. he does this without fail EVERY morning, as long as i'm still in bed. he'll jump around in bed for a few minutes, happy to be close to us again, and he'll settle down after a while and go back to sleep, this time in mummy's arms until mummy is ready to wake up.

isn't he a cutie?

he got sick the other day, after eating weird stuff like biltong (dried & preserved meat). he was very very inactive when i woke up, and this is after throwing up twice. he didnt even jump around when i brought food to him like he usually does and that got me WORRIED sick! i quickly called work to see if they could approve annual leave for me so i could take him to the vet and stay home to look after him. all was good so i made an appointment to see the vet that afternoon.

he was diagnosed with some stomach bug thingy, and he got given an injection for antibiotics and i had to starve him for 12 hours -_- that was really really hard coz he seemed so hungry, he went around the house licking and eating everything that he found, be it paper bits, hair or dust bunnies :S but he managed to pull through with some electrolytes that was prescribed to him.

total cost at the vet was nzd$114 for his antibiotics, electrolytes and vet consultations..it was realllyy expensive, but at least after his injection, he looked happy again and when we got home, he was running around again and that made my day :)

he's still on antibiotics now, but i'm very strict on what he eats and etc - i'm making him plain porridge everyday, and i chuck in a small piece of his chicken treats just to make it a little yummier and he eats everything under 5 minutes, being the glutton that he is!

but apart from that, the vet said he's a very healthy and good looking boy, though a but pudgy on his sides, but do not fret as mummy has come up with the best exercise plan for him - play catch while mummy watches tv =p

so that's pretty much my junior, after being with us for over a month :) he is my bundle of joy, and my little furball spoiled with love!
