Maz - I'm also trying to convince DH that the $$ coming in Dec should buy more nappies (he doesnt know yet that I bought a whole heap today!). Wish me luck! I, unlike you have many left to buy and try!
Oh melbel My heart goes out to you hun If i can help in anyway, even just suppling chocies and coffee or something please let me know. Anyone Maz can rave about so much will always get loads of love from me when they need it. xoxoxo
Im stuffed.. Cleaned my dads house today with 3 kids with me mind you. Bree now has an ear infection too. Then came home and have been a mad woman around my house... Going to bed in a min before i pass out in my computer chair
WOS1B - bbh and maz's zebra minky cover
WOS2B - Sposie.. Lets hope she doesnt get leakage again tonight
Mel - you are an amazingly strong woman... I hope you get the answers you are after.
Maz - yeah velcro for the GK - sorry!!! We dont' really have a problem with velcro here - its snaps he plays with in this house - my son is NOT normal...
Maz, I really like the GreenKids pockets. The velcro issue is only an issue at naptimes, when pretty much any mischief that can happen, happens, because mischief is preferable to sleep for a toddler.
So I just put on pants for sleep times.
I'm at work - apparently the monster yukky poos are still continuing at home... DH is doing a SAHD thing today with DS while I work... (and yes I am working -on lunch!!)
He is using the flats - i showed him how to fold them last night - and then he did it this morning, and DS knocked it over and he couldn't remember how to put it back the way I showed him.. haha.. was pulling his hair out apparently!!!! hahahahahahaha!!!!
The poor man.. This is after a huge fight with me this morning and me storming out of the house.. haha!!!!
WOAB: Flat.. hehehehehehe
WOMB: BumG or MD (daycare)
Hello girls,
Geez, I can't keep up with you. You're such a chatty lot! So please forgive me if I forget to comment on some things.
Gigi, you're so not an ungrateful cow. You are reacting the way most people would. You are frustrated and irritated. I have been much more ungrateful to DH over much less... I also know what you mean about the photos. I'm usually the one taking photos, so most of them are of DD and DH. And if he does take a photo of us, I usually look horrible (one eye half closed, looking kinda stoned, looking down with 4 chins,... he never thinks to tell me to change something and then take another shot. He thinks they are good photos..)
Alioops, Maya never does roll-off poos. i wish she did. They are always creamy in consistence. Sometimes downright runny. And she's almost 18 months (still BFed).
Heidi, congrats on your pregnancy!!!
Was it Ness with the lovely clean kitchen photo and the gorgeous girl sitting on the counter??? I'm jealous of the clean kitchen and your daughter is jsut sooooo adorable.
Talking about clean, on the weekend, I finally cleaned up my home office. It ahs only been about 1 1/2 years. There were things piled so high on the desk, I couldn't even see the desk anymore (and it's a big around the corner type desk). I can finally see the desk and the floor!!!! I'm so excited. DH tackled the spare bedroom which had become a dumping ground for him when I went to Germany recently for my brother's wedding (my family lives in Germany). So the place is really getting there...
I can't remember who made a comment about my mum coming to stay... But the thing is, when my mum is here, I'm not allowed to pay for ANYTHING anyway. She insists on paying for all the groceries, etc. So saying "if you wanna use disposables, then you've gotta pay for them" just wouldn't work, as she would do that anyway... I just had really hoped to get her support with the whole cloth thing and maybe even convince her that it's a great thing and very cute,... but that will be hard to do if it's so smelly. But now that it's not raining so much anymore and not so humid, it doesn't seem quite so bad. I can leave the door that goes from the laundry to the backyard open, with just the screen door closed, so it gets lots of fresh air and it's not so smelly. I have only jsut made my breastpad contraption, so will tell you how that works out.
I have another question: I think you girls were right, Maya is teething. She seems to have very nasty poos. Her bottom is so red and a little swollen. I never used to struggle with nappy rash apart from once, when it was really bad and persistent. I have a "miracle cream" my friend sent me which worked well back then. It is pretty lotiony, not a barrier cream. Can I use it sparingly with cloth nappies? Would it be safer to get flushable liners to protect my nappies?
Also, I have noticed that Maya's bum gets red if she's been in cloth over night (BBB with wool cover). Should I get microfleece liners to keep her bottom drier?
WOMB: nothing exciting, pastel green Peapod, but will need a change soon.
