Topic: The all new INTRODUCTIONS thread... Posted: 15 April 2007 at 10:21pm |
By popular request, a brand new version of the Introductions thread!
I'll start...
I'm Emma, mum to Maya Grace (4) and the gremlins Sienna and Mercedes who are six months. We live in Auckland their Daddy, Willie, (aka Mr Grumpy). I work here at OHbaby! as a writer, which is THE perfect job since it means I also get to be a SAHM without going crazy!

Gudday....
I'm Maree, married to Nick and mum to Sean (11), Andrew (23 months) and Connor (6 months). Sean is known as the pre-teen, Andrew the terrortot and Connor the gigantababy. They respond to many other names too, apart from the preteen that doesn't really respond to much unless it involves invitations for food or playstation time.
Photos... (because I don't have one of the three of them together)...
I'm a stay at home mum, but once upon a time back in the dark ages of 2005 I was a regional manager for a govt. department.
I like small walks in the moonlight (usually to a cafe) and long walks around the shopping mall (usually ending at a cafe). Oh, and if the cafe comments didn't give it away...I'm an Aucklander.

My name is Genevieve, married mother of one (daughter Madeleine Gracae) and I'm a WAHM working as a HoneyChild agent.
I also enjoy knitting, sewing, a bit of gardening, reading, hanging out with friends (especially at cafe's!!!) pina coladas and walks in the rain! (nah seriously I do!!!). I'm also a shameless MCN addict (the Honey Child really had to happen!)
Here is Madeleine Grace and one of the recent nightmares she has been causing me.

Hi *waves*!
Im Kelly (27) married to Brent (also 27), we live in Whakatane. We have a beautiful 6 month old daughter called Isla (pronounced eye-la, as in island!).
I grew up in Auck, and my parents are still there so we visit quite often.
I am a nurse, but am currently on maternity leave, and not planning to go back to work when that runs out in July.

Hi, will edit this a put on a photo later. I'm Liz, and married to Lewis and have two boys Jake (2.5) and Taine (1). we live in Gisborne at the moment, but may be heading to wellington later in the year if lewis gets into Customs officer training - also may be heading to auckland for a visit so look out Auckland ladies!
Oh yeah, am a SAHM, but doing a teaching diploma - last year - wooohjooooo! And then will strt a diploma in Japanese (lived in japan for five years) - in fact living in Japan was the main reason I came onto Ohbaby, so I could talk about NZ childrearing, as none of my friends over there had children.
essay over!

My name is Belinda (25), married to Leon (28). We live in Northland (hour south of Whangarei) and are expecting our first baby on 2nd Nov. We have been married for 6 months and are very excited!!
I came up here from Auckland, so know all about cafes and shopping, but am now enjoying the quiet country life. We have 3 acres, 5 sheep, 4 cows and a cat and dog (our current babies). I work at The Kauri Museum as Marketing Officer, but am currently on a 12 materity contract covering someone else. Contract ends 2 weeks before baby due. I plan on being a SAHM for as long as possible - we plan on having more and me being home until they go to school!
So that's me

Hi ladies!
My name is Sam (30) (Samantha if I am in trouble!), I am married to Brett (38), and we live in central Auckland. I work from home as a Business Analyst / Technical Writer and hubby is a PM. We are expecting our first baby in October, and we are still in that panic / excitement mode!
We lead a fairly quiet life, but I enjoy eating out, shopping, the movies and generally things that arent too strenuous!

Ok I don't have any photos of the four of us but i'm sure after this weekend we will. So I'm Becks (a Rebecca but not called that often), 25 married to Nigel (who is turing 25 this Friday). We have Andrew who turns 3 next Monday (he is our Monster, Monkey) and our little valentine Joshua (born Valentines day this year). We live in Palmy, he's been here all his life I come from across the ditch from the sunny Queensland (Brissie girl). I'm currently at home on maternity leave but i;m looking for work to go to very soon.

I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived!

Righto, I'll chuck a photo in later when I find one that is semi suitable, but in the mean time...
I am Nikki, 22 year old mother to Hannah the 2 year old. I'm studying International Relations at Vic Uni and have one year left before I will finally have honours! Yay! I am also working as assistant librarian at the FPA. I have a Tobin at the moment... he's 25 and is slowly adapting to his role as (sorta) step-parent after having little to no experience with kids. Hannah let him carry her yesterday - major breakthrough!

I love all of your photo's!! I will put one in later when I figure out how to do it again.
I'm Vicky a 32 year old SAHM mum to three. Hubby is the same age and works way too hard. Our children are Micheal 10 years old going on 20, He's our serious boy. Jayden 5 years old he is our family clown and never takes anything seriously and Abigail 2 years old who is the family daredevil and most definitely the BOSS. Oh and we live in Christchurch.

Awesome re-introductions and pics, ladies! Alrightey - I'm Andie, married to Jono and we have a beautiful 6-month old daughter, Ella. I slowly weaned myself of my social work career to become a SAHM.
Hmmmm... photos of the 3 of us together are very hard to come by.

So that's us, of course, and our wee girl...

OK so we don't always have her in hats... honest! She just tried on her daddy's beanie, and the other pic was taken at a 2nd birthday party.
