oh suse, I remember those days with Nina. It's hard isn't it. I want Emily to stay still for as long as possible.
I don't even want to think what my car looks like ATM. I know I haven't cleaned the inside of it in a few weeks. I just get the kids in and out of the car, and don't look around. That works best
FJ - I pulled out my nappy bag this morning and dusted it off. I've been slack and have been using my handbag (I have a large handbag, lol). But now that I'm carrying around food for Emily and Nina, plus nappies and whatnot, than I thought it was best to get the nappy bag out.
I'm hanging out to get my itti bittis which Maz grabbed for me on the weekend. I luuurve ittis!
Thanks FJ - I'll give that a try. At the very least it will give my thighs a workout And if he rolls around on the floor he won't fall off it. I just wish that he could understand that if he could just be still for a minute or two, it would be over SOOOO MUCH QUICKER, instead of this interminable pain and torture...
Oh, BTW, did I mention that we have a WALKER!!!! He's been taking increasingly less wobbly steps for a couple of weeks now, and he can get from the computer to the coffee table (about 1 1/2 metres) without falling over!!
Thank you to all the girls that turned up and let me have the pleasure of their company on saturday. I had a ball . I am so tired and my legs feel like their gonna drop off after yesterday. Nelle - I have to get into contact with you asap about you know what
Yay for the walker Suse!!! woohoo!!! And yup classic nappy change trouble - we did a similar thing to FJ - tucking his legs under my armpits and bending down work well on the floor too.
We are currently going through a "lets-kick-daddy-in-the-nuts" stage here. I may not get a chance for the 3rd child by the time he grows out of the stage!!
Nelle - it certainly works very well backwards lol
Gigi & Ange - well I'm glad I'm not the only one...lol (no wonder DH complained all the time that they were a little awkward to put on DS....lol - whoops!!)
Bea - I so know what you are talking about - its DVD's here
Ta for the tip FJ - it sort of worked a treat. At least it kept the top half of him motionless, but he howled and kicked and thrashed his legs about so hard he was bright red and dripping with sweat by the end of it. Poor little guy, he was really distressed, but what can I do, he's got to have his bum changed... DP wouldn't want to try it without some serious protection, some of the kicks I got HURT, and I'm a girl! It was still a bit hard getting the nappy on, but it only took five minutes as opposed to twenty-five, so that's a positive. I really hope he gets over this phase soon.
Mel, what's the thing with boys, eh? E loves to grab, bite, stand on, poke, prod, squeeze and generally mutilate DP's balls.
Pink - yay on Ethan's first MCN. Such a cute photo too. Ashley seems to adore her little brother...
Well there go SUse, the croc roll & walking tend to go hand in hand. Why lie still when you can go where ever you like!
Evan was walking by 10 months also & oh how nappy changes were so much fun!
Another thing you could try, is get him to get you the things. So ask him to get you a nappy or the wipes & come lie down etc. He may be a little young to understand but if he thinks he is helping mummy he might be more willing KWIM
OMG I just got the cutes fluffy mail!
I got 2 NB bettle bums off NC & OMG they are seriously tiny fluff!!! One is white minkee & the other is a funky duck print. Not a massive fan of Bettle bums as in the past I found the fit too small for ISla. But the price was right so I grabbed them.
I also got a pair of NB longies which a orange colour way with a mushroom on the leg, with a matching hat. Again OMG Im soooo clucky!
Also got a pk of snappis from ebay (6 in total) & then some bits n pieces for the baby too. socks etc.
Suse change him on the floor! Bribe with a bickie/rusk/bit of apple, whatever is his favourite. Or even a special toy just for nappy changes. Caleb was fascinated with a tube of cream. Must have been the twist off cap!
FJ I've been thinking about getting out the tripod and striking a pose. I've definitely dropped after this wekend. Won't repeat myself again as I posted in the expo meetup thread but I overdid things a tad
Gee I should have had a bet with Maz. She was sure you were going to go this weekend
PP what a cutie
Nappies are washed. Wasn't as bad as I expected (thank goodness!)
FJ - I like to put all our OSFA nappies folded to newborn size when I put them away. Makes me cluck too.
Funny non nappy thing happening here atm - Sarah is watching her Dorothy DVD (again) and is saying some of it at the same time as Dorothy! Man this kid watches this DVD too much!! She knows it almost word for word!! Well the words she can say.
PP - He is so cute!! I cant wait for newborn fluff on a newborn in my house!!! only 7.5-8 months to go
Suse - We are floor changers here. I let them run away nude when it is only a wee and then I catch them and make them lay down again. With poo, I wipe then let them run. We havent had any accidents doing that and everyone stays happy.
Saram - Was a good day. Maybe next year I will put ads in the community diary on the radio station I listen to. Needs 2 weeks notice. We will get more people to the RNW picnic eventually!!!
