CONGRAT ALI !!
Raven and FJ - you two are TERRIBLE teases to your dh's!!!
KATONES - thinking of you, best of luck!
NESSA - that is so funny about your d'lish getting posted to the circular file. (the bin). We have a box within cooee of the changetable, to distract and interest a certain squirmy bilby - i think that was a Nelle tip i got yonks ago - sometimes it works and sometimes it don't, but it's good to ahve ti handy. i gave up on mobiles, too dangerous once they can stand up and attempt to "reach" the mobile or hanging crystal pretty thing etc.
today in a toy shop, (shopping for bilby's #2 birthing day celebration) i saw this groovy simple wooden painted jigsaw, it was of a family at the beach, two children, dad and mum all in their bathers, mum in a bikini with a pregnant belly. it was so nice to see a pregnant mum in a family drawing.
i was really there to look at pegboards and magnet doodle drawer thingos, but kept getting distracted! the pegboards were all either too basic, or too advanced, coudln't find one like teh childcare centre have (for the kindy kids, but bilby loves it).
WOTBB: bits for bots sweetdreams pocket with bamboo stuffing
Maz - i've sent my Secret Swap to the Swappee who is not secret to me (otherwise, how would i know where to send it?) so i hope they get it on Monday. mwah!
TIME TO GIVE YOUR GREY MATTER A WORKOUT (get the lycra ready)
for a friend of mine - could you all please spam me with brands of APLIX CLOSING, SIZED, POCKET NAPPIES - if you know of any that fit that criteria please.
so not OSFA, no snaps. ta - i'm having trouble thinking of them - mainly cos i have not looked at aplix closing stuff since newborn stage. and i can think of HEAPS of aplix closing OSFA pockets, but not SIZED pockets. well there is swaddlebees, but i'm hoping there are more brands (to tell my friend). ta

Yes, I got your PM thanks so much! Was shocked that you have time to PM someone when you've just given birth (AT HOME no less) so thank you very much!
Had a rough week here with both DS and DH waking me numerous times in the night! I am wrecked and haven't been feeling my best so have just been lurking for the past few days.
It is well past my bedtime I set for myself of 10:30pm so I had best get off the computer and head to bed. We have a busy weekend with a 3 year old birthday party and lunchtime tomorrow and then getting together with a girlfriend and her four kids after church tomorrow.
I hope everyone is having a great weekend so far!
WOHB: Lizard print Nappylicious with HUGE tri-fold snap in booster and an Indisposables (Canadian brand) cover.
I have discovered the Nappylicious works as a night nappy for James IF I use the tri-fold booster in it AND a cover! Gotta make the most of my still somewhat skimpy stash!!
Heidi its so hard, I had a real bad time when Matilda was that age... I can't actually remember all of it, I think I blocked it out!!
So I'm going to have to go guy some sposies for the move. I think I'll head to Aldi and get a fwe packs because we won't be able to afford the others. Or do I just take my stash in the car and wash when we get to Sydney.... hmmmmm decisions decisions. DH wants me to pack them up because he doesn't want us to have too much stuff in the car, but my opinion is what if something happens in the move??? We'll need the nappies.
Christy, Nothing wrong with Aldi nappies. I think they are great as far as sposiies go.
Personally I would go sposies while you move. I mean It would be fairly simple to toss a laod on when you get to a washing maching but really, do you want a car full of wet & smelly nappies?
Sorry to but in here guys,
Gigi. My ex flatmate is a primary teacher and I still get a copy of her teachers suppys catalogue. The company that it comes from is called EDSCO. May be try googling them for your supplies. Failing that, ask your kindy teacher, they prob have the catalogues from their suppliers and may be able to order exactly what you want. Am not sure if you need to be a teacher to access these wholesalers, but I recon any half nice teacher would do it for you.

Christy - as much as I hate sposies...really it would be easier for you to take them. Aldi ones are fabo and great value for $$. I take cloth no matter were I go though...even on holiday's
Sorry girls that about it for personals this monring until the coffee kicks in....I was just about to go to bed at 11 when Vy woke up and didnt go back to sleep until 2.30 with me so have had bugger all and ive got a busy night infront of me tonight to ahhhhhh
Maz, breastpads.. Minkee side down through the feed dogs or Bamboo? I want to make some up with the velour I have left over. Im sure I have plenty of bamboo scraps I could make some with..
Ooh Sammi & Sal, SUPER JEALOUS of your cloth nappy expo-expedition!! I really wanted to go but my olds were visiting & Punky wouldn't go with any of them so I couldn't get a lift to go have a look-see. They left earlier today & Punky was in the best mood she's been in all week once she was here on her own....!!! Poor family drove 14 hours to see her & she mostly just cried at them!!
...aargh, can't think of what I was going to say.... sooo tired....
I agree Maz, Aldi sposies are the best for the $$.. Its the only nappy Shelby doesnt (always) Wet through generally.. Mind you she has still been known to but im certainly changing the sheets less with the Aldi ones...
mwah!
Very pleased for you honey!
Heidi its so hard, I had a real bad time when Matilda was that age... I can't actually remember all of it, I think I blocked it out!!
i can't wait to have that nappy for my boys bum....
