Kel I'll try LOL ;) DH has gone for a fang with the 3 boys up to his mates place so I am all on my lonesome for the next 2 hours or so. Wonder if I'm tempting fate!
Maz oooh looking forward to postie dude calling in soon :D
Well I did something else today. Not nappy related but related to the beautiful girls here who gave me beads for my baby shower. Yes I finally got my birthing beads strung up. I have tried countless times and couldn't get them to look right but I have done it. I'll upload to my blog shortly :D
WOHB...OMG I just realised Trev didn't change Caleb before he left so I imagine it will be a very soggy bubblebubs :doh:
ETA I have updated my blog now with pics of the birthing beads :D
Mel.. Where abouts are you? I was born and bred in Qld and use to live on the sunny coast ;) Im just going to hang out with my daddy in his holiday/town house.. hes at the foot of mt coolum... only up for a long weekend though. Think John would leave home (without the kids) if i went any longer..
Sammi.. what did you have in mind eh?
I tried just about everything to get Sebi out... When i told my ob that i even forced my hubby into having sex the ob replied 'was that his idea? it doesnt work but the husbands normally suggest it' ROFL I even drove my race car up to Winton and back at speeds that i can not disclose on the forum lol and even with my super hard suspension, sebi wouldnt budge... the only thing that was budging was my bladder lol i could only get a finger between my gut and the steering wheel lol...
Kathryne.. you lucky duck you! Im jealous!
No more buying nappies for me for a while.. between my expensive fabric addiction, acrylic nail addiction, race car addiction and things that dont matter as much like rates on the house, school fees and those stupid household bills.. Im broke till after christmas... Even that lovely 3k from Mr Rudd is going straight on the credit card and paying the rates....
ok im depressed now thinking about money lol being an adult sucks i think lol
I live in Nambour (yeah I know, terrible). I know Coolum a bit - i work for a law firm in coolum and DS used to go to Mt Coolum Day Care Centre - was lovely dropping him off every day and getting to look at the mountain on my way to work - definitely better than the view in Nambour!!!!
If you wanna catch up - let me know!!! :)
lovely bracelets there Sammi - you have definately a talent to design!
Well after a day of shopping, I now have even more pressies for Pip, a birthday pressie for DH, a layby mostly paid off for Pip, a layby paid off for me (lovely skirt & handbag) and a christmas layby halfway paid off. Got some interesting looks in the baby change room when I was changing Pip - taking off his BP and putting on a funkywun - bright orange inner fleece just gorgeous! He only slept for about a half hour while driving between Fountain Gate & Knox City darnit, so put him to bed when we got back here @ 5:30 and other than waking with a pooey nappy, he's been sleeping since (in nice clean nappy). Not sure whether he'll wake again .. he's in BBB plus BB PUL cover, it won't last overnight ... hmmm.
oooh maz does that mean that elves and spiders and lions get posted on Monday as well?
I hear you on the nappies, I need to fold. My bedroom is a mess of clean clothing. About to fold it all ... yay.
Didn't hang out my nappies, put them in the dryer, and today was a perfect drying day but the forecast was 13deg and rain :wall:
WoHB - BBB + pul
Sammi - that looks brilliant btw - absolutely stunning - you could go into business selling other birth beads to people ;)
:shhh: with a bit of luck babe
I wanna sneak in your suitcase Kelly....I wanna meet some of the QLD girls
Stupid stupid man who is ment to head honcho of our house....:rolleyes: decided to put Vy's night nappy on at 7.30 so for the next hour outside all I heard was 'Wee mummy...wee' then mateauz is crying his bum off for about 10 mins..I said jed
he's tired get anight nappy and bottle and off to bed once its finished...
...how do you know he's tired... :doh: if stupidity would hurt I tell ya!
WOVB - IB fitted with pink and aqua blue fleecie cover
WOMB - blue BBH banboo with techno flames
oh, u have to stop mentioning Nambour, Arimeh!! It makes me sad. That place kinda scares me, with it's ladies-with-beards and whatnot... But I do miss Mt Coolum, spent most of my childhood within sight of it, but in the end I think it was that flashing red light on top of it that drove me mad and I ran away! That, and the swamp gas from Ross River County (*cough* I mean Mudjimba). lol at your stinky revenge for FIL!
Suse - forgot to mention, it's quite possible we were separated at birth, since my "parents" swear I was a foundling, left by the elves... and I think the red nappy thing is a hangover from the fact I only ever had red nappies as a baby too. Bloody hippies...
Elmo... PMS 1795, or is it 192? Whatever. He cute. I have him sitting on my computer.
maz - I'm with ya! weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee let's all not be sane together! Here's my list of things PMS could stand for:
1. Pass My Shotgun
2. Psychotic Mood Shift
3. Perpetual Munching Spree
4. Puffy Mid-Section
5. People Make me Sick
6. Provide Me with Sweets
7. Pardon My Sobbing
8. Pimples May Surface
9. Pass My Sweat pants
10. ****y Mood Syndrome
11. Plainly; Men Suck
12. Pack My Stuff, and my favorite one (apart from Pantone Matching System!):
13. Potential Murder Suspect
Um, nappies, yes, that's right... I have an issue with BumGs collecting lint inside the tabs bit. I'm thinking this is coz I have a dodgy washing machine which seems to create lint like it was made to do it! I don't know where the stuff is coming from but it's annoying. I wash all my MCN separate from everything else, and clean the lint filter after every wash, but it keeps happening.Why is it so??
WOHB: Yellow Pocket Change
Piddle me stupied!!!!! :ROFL: oh have I ever told ya's I lived in Bundy for 2 years ...dont knw if that's such a good thing to brag about though
Sorry NaNa.... my bad - yes funny bearded people by the hundreds - I'm one of them. Did you go to school on the coast as well? If yes where - do tell ;)
Maz- you wanna meet qld ladies? - hey that would include me.. mazzie wants to meet me??? woooooo I feel so spec!!!!
:)
better go clean the house
Wouldn't brag about that one maz!
We need to get you up this way, A Qld state-wide meet up sounds fantastic!
oh, and Maz, got any plans for the 7/8th March next year ;)
Emily had a major blow out today in her magicall. I'm using mediums on her, but they just don't seem to be doing the job. She's been having a few leaks on and off for the past couple of weeks. I hope it's not time for large ones yet, I don't have any.
Jodi - you want my large magicall?
;)
Unfortunately i went to Beerwah High up until grade 10 :shhh: Spend the last 5yrs of living in qld in Mooloolay Valley formally known as Mooloolah... What a **** adding 'Valley' on the end... Like a word like that would give the place anymore class ROFL..
I still head up that way atleast once a year as my mum currently lives in Beerwah and her folks and sisters live in Mooloolah as well.
Nambour eh.. geez that brings back memories of dodgy movie cinemas and lots of strange people :lol:
I've just sat down and no Sh*t folded 5 baskets of washing and 40 nappies :redface: I'm determined to try and count how many mcn's i actually have lol mind you i still have two nappy buckets full of nappies waiting to be washed tomorrow :lol:
Shelby had a blow out in a Magicall today :o Im shocked it was even running down her leg :o Poor bugger!
Maz do you think you could get away for a long weekend next year? we could fly up to qld for a meet up :) Accommodation and a car is no problem (and no cost)..
How do i get my own gallery to post pics? Do i need a particular number of posts?
Now that i've figured out what it means i might join in..
WOS1B: Cant remember, he went to bed about 2.5 hours ago and i didn't put him down so god knows what John has left him in lol
WOS2B: Sposie - we dont do cloth over night with Shelby
Think i need to do S1 and S2 (their ages)
Geez kel its a small world - you probably know my stepfather - he's lived around Beerwah for years now (probably 30 years or something).. and he had a business in Beerwah...I don't think my stepbrothers went to school up on the coast think they went to school in brisbane.
Had a friend that lived in Mooloolah though - so you'd probably know her.. lol... well.. I'm just assuming you are around my age - heck you might be way younger than me!!! lol
im 26 is that close? Im a baby with 3 babies lol (sometimes 4 if hubby is being a pain lol)
Errrr.... uhhh.... well you may NOT have heard of my friend then.. but you might know her brother - I think he was 2 or 3 years younger than us.. so still a few years older than you though... :redface:
My stepdad lived in Mooloolah with his ex wife & their kids. My step sister is 26, and she went to Beerwah High, so you might know her kel??
i can't bring myself to leave three or four day's worth of washing to fold.
1. the unit is too tiny, there is nowhere to hide it in the meantime, no spare room, no spare cupboard, NOWHERE TO HIDE IT!
2. one wooden clothes horse is all i have to dry stuff on, everything, even the sheets
3. i'm so far behind with EVERYTHING else domestic - haven't really made meals for two years now, snacks don't count, so if i wasn't up to date (sort of) with the MCN, i wouldn't be up to date with ANYTHING
4. i'm thinking right about now, being obsessive compulsive about the MCN isn't such a bad thing, i need ONE thing to feel good about at least.
5. if i didn't keep up with the MCN, having only ONE child, i'm sure all you mummies with four kids would throw rotten tomatoes at me anyhoo!
Mummyto3 - dragonflymagik is a WAHM site, if you google that brand, you will find the site. I happen to have a child who really suits side snappers, and out of narrow and wide crotch brands, DFM is on the narrower side. So when i went looking for SS and narrow crotch, plus DFM use malden millls fleece for the outer, which i love, well, it ticked all the boxes for us. Plus it's a quicker drying one, you snap in a trifold, and a booster set up. Definately worth the money (for us).
Alioops - that's great that so many Townsville people use cloth, at least at home - better than not at all. Maybe they don't know about wetbags? and more compact MCN that the flats (i'm guessgin) they use at home?
Raven - thinking of you!
NaNa and Suse - i have no idea what the PMS and the nubmers mean - is this an MSN joke?
NaNa - i totally get teh "must be the RIGHT red" thing. i feel the same about purple. i have emailed WAHMS to make sure if a purple is a bluey violet purple or a pinky purple - colours vary so much on computer monitors. I once bought some fleece online, called ELECTRIC VIOLET, sold as a bright colour, it arrived, a deep plum purple, so dark it was almost black! nothing like the colour swatch online.
whoever asked about the belly belly gallery. i THOUGHT you had to be a Platinmum memeber to access it, but i was so wrong, anyone can upload photos. i discovered this last night, and have been busy making up for lost time LOL.
WOTBB: Kester Kovers AIO (another good night nappy, front snapper, very clever snaps design, Possum Pouches make and sell them). it's really an Ai2 with the snap in insert, but called an AIO.

Maz - Yup, same addy sweets, thank you, will stalk le posty. :)
Sammi - Your bracelets look AMAZING!! Great work. Hopefully you can stand to wear them in labour lol. If it were me I'd probably be so excited to wear it & then be yelling "Get it off!!!" 10 seconds later, then, possibley, crying about it... :lol:
Jodi.. whats her name? i'd say pm me but i havent got access to that yet lol
Gigi.. Happy Birthday to Bilby. Hope you all have a wonderful day celebrating!
Happy birthday bilby!!!!
:happybirthday:

He's gorgeous FJ
:partysmiley: Happy Birthday Bilby!
rofl you girls are crazy :lol:
Kel I reccon I have that much washing permanently in a pile on the spare couch in my lounge. As soon as I fold it more mysteriously appears :o
LOL QM I was like that about my clothes in labour ;)
Poor little man had a leaked out nappy when he came home last night. He came into the lounge walking like a cowbow and grizzling with the seat of his pants sopping but I still had to pin him down to take it off him. He got upset because I took off his shoes.
Thanks on the comments about the beads. I tried really really hard to do my best to make them look as beautiful as the girls who gave them to me :D
Happy Birthday little Miss Bilby!
congratulations on making it to 2 yrs of BFing Gigi. Thats fantastic. Isla still has the odd little feed here & there. She had one while I was in prelabour. Then a little "feed" the other night but she told me (before she had even latched) that it was yukky. Mind you her new word of the moment is yukky, everything is Yuk or yukky LOL. But She latched & then just sat there while she calmed down, she was having a spaz about going to bed.
Sammi, the beads came together great. Wish I had got one! It will make a great keepsake.
very cute fiona!!
beads look awesome sam!!
Oh FJ, he is such a handsome little man! cluck cluck cluck
Sammi, i call my formal/adult lounge room the 'washing room' as there is about 1 day in every 14 where you can actually see the nice couches that are in there lol... Today just happens to be that day but i do have washing to dump on it tonight or tomorrow morning lol..
That sucks about your little cowboy :( How yuck for him :(
Took sebi to the dr's this morning and hes slowly on the mend. Shelby is doing better and now i have an ear/throat infection :( Damn kids.. Sharing is NOT caring..
