Hi everyone! sorry its been a long time since I have posted, but have been following all your progress.....
Happy Birthday to all the bubbas, I hope everyones parties went well and everyone got spoilt!
we have Jacobs party on sunday, just BBQ at a local park, hopefully he will be well enough no one can seem to tell me what is wrong with him, 3 different docs, just useless!
so hard to believe that a year ago today I was being induced, I cant believe how quick these 12 months have gone.
will try to post a bit more often, have missed u guys! xx
Starry - Olive has been unwell too. I took her to the doc's this arvo after having to pick her up from daycare and he thinks she might have salmonella again? Apparently the bug can hang around in the system for ages so I have to get a stool sample and also get a urine just to be sure it's not a uti. I have to try and catch a wee though which ain't gunna be easy. Olive seems a little better this arvo though after some time with mummy She ate and drank better and seemed happier.
Whats been up with Jacob? Hope he id better soon.
Starry & CW - Hope Jacob and Olive get better very soon and you get some answers as to what is wrong with them. Must be very frustrating not knowing. Hope Jacob enjoys his party on Sunday.
We have Lara's 1st Birthday/Christening tomorrow, I am everything runs smoothly. My mum can't make it, she is really sick with the flu at the moment. We have about 45 people coming, hope I have organised everything and haven't forgotten something.
We have Lara's 12 month check up and immunisations on Wed (Hollye - same day as Mia). Will be interesting to see how much she has grown.
Out of those 4 eggs we harvested only 1 fertilised. Vanessa had it inserted this morning and it all looks good. Her lining was 15mm so it is snuggled in there and we are now crossing fingers, toes and legs in the hope that it sticks.
We are having a halloween party for the kids tomorrow night and will be flat out tomorrow getting it ready (what made us do this I will never know)
Meara will be getting her needles next month. She was supposed to have them the morning I ended up having the egg pick up ohhhh well little bit longer before I have to hear her cry with anything but frustration lol. Her bigger sister Kaylee loves nothing more than teasing her or pulling her over so she gets her revenge by pulling her hair or scratching her. I'm waiting until she gets older and knows to hit back.
Oh well have to go
Take care everyone and enjoy all those parties that are happening
I am absolutely exhausted, we had Lara's 1st Birthday party/Christening today. It was a great day and it turned out perfectly but it is so exhausting trying to get around to everyone and talk to them all. She got so many beautiful presents, she is a very lucky girl!
HJ - By the looks of Miss B's stats, she is growing nicely. I can't wait to get Lara weighed/measured on Wednesday and compare her stats to her birth ones.
Kim - Hope you're Halloween party is going well tonight. Let us know if Vanessa gets a positive pregnancy test. Fingers x'd she does!!!
Well I have to go, my lounge room is a mess with toys and wrapping paper everywhere.
everything is good here. Had some rough nights with Mia but last night was better. Not sure if it was teeth or from her needles. I cant wait till her check up on Wednesday i wonder if she has finally got to 10 kg? She was close but then she got so mobile and when she was sick she lost a little weight. So who knows??
I all, sorry just a quick one, wanted to let you all know that I am so proud of little V, she is now drinking from a sippy cup with straw. She has been running around with it all day. I think she thinks she so clever, which she is. hehehe. I had one that I bought last week but it was one of those soft straw ones, and she couldnt get the hang of it and would just throw it, so I bought her a hard straw tommy tippee one and she loves it.
Will catch up as soon as I get a chance. hugs
Ohh and Happy Birthday to all those little bubs that had their birthday over the weekend. hugs
Lara had her 12 month check up today. Everything is well for her. She cried a bit for her 3 needles, not for long though. Still breaks my heart to see her cry when she gets them.
Her stats are:
Weight: 9.9 kg (2.7 kg birth)
Length: 75.5 cm (42 cm birth)
HC: 45 cm (30.2 cm birth)
Hollye - How'd Mia go today with her needles & check up?
csab - Well done little V on drinking from a sippy cup
Nothing much to report here, I'll try and be back later!
Angus had his one year old needles this morning, had to wait for an hour and a half to see the doctor, he cryed HARD but you should have seen him trying to fight the doctor for the needles following the first one, he kept pushing her away
Did everyone's bub get 3 needles in one go? B only got 2 and we go back for the 3rd this week! Doctor said not good to give all 3 in one go!
Miss B sooked a little but afterwards was happy as larry and no side effects at all!
Look at your bubs gaining weight so wonderfully. Well done ittle ones. Hope all the 12mth needles go ok.
O still havent given V hers yet, looking at doing it next week. Fingers crossed she will handle it ok. V isnt too well atm, with the flu. Also just noiced today, the V has had her molars come through. The bottom ones, not sure about the top ones as she wont let me look. lol. So that makes 10teeth for Little Miss V now.
Hope all your bubs are doing well and have enjoyed their birthdays.
Also my DS2 turned 14yrs yesterday, cant believe how time is flying.
