i was so well prepared with red and green clothing and mcn to put on bilby today, but it seemed pointless, when it was just us three, at home all day. So didn't use any of it.
what did i get for xmas?
bilby did her first wee in the potty (reading her book). Didn't want her to sit on her flipout sofa, just in knickers, so i removed the flip out sofa, put the potty in it's spot, and she sat on that, then did a weird stare, which made me think "is she doing something?", checked and YES! so i made dh join me in a huge celebration of WOO HOO's to get the message thru to bilby that yes, she did good! (she was wearing knickers at the time, didn't pull down knickers or anything, but you gotta start somewhere.) she was carried to the bath, wiped clean, put in new knickers, and taken to see the potty get emptied and flushed down the loo - to help her understand the cycle. and then to wash our hands.
DId i leave anythign out? i'm guessing all the time, hoping i remember all your tips!!!
thanks Maz, i will look out for Bond's hipsters, i got a 3pack of their normal undies at Coles, but they are a bit generous in sizing, didn't notice hipsters, i'll look again.
FJ, i tried bestnless and Coles, havne't looked anyway else, i don't go shopping IRL much these days. I would prolly look in big w, kmart, target when i next get the opportunity - i'll let you know if i find smaller brands in that size.
How typical Maz, you make covers galore for EVERYONE else, and your poor kid gets to wear one with a missing eye! I've made all these bibs, really pleased with them, gave them away, none for bilbs. LOL.
Suse - amazing how much entertainment value is to be had out of sultanas.
bilbs fave xmas pressie was a $2 fairy wand, holographic streamers on it and a glittery star on the end. her fave word is STAR STAR and she'll tell you loudly, STAR STAR, any time she sees or thinks she sees a star. e.g a flower or snowflake can be a star, anything in a starlike shape.
she loved the wooden pullalong toys i got her too, just attached a longer ribbon and away she went. it's like she's the Pied Piper of the pullalong toy.
wotbb: second night nappy for tonight, cos poor love is teething and we had a early night time poo (she never poos at night, unless teeth are coming). at least it was a nugget, i'm grateful for small mercies.
Miss M is sick - so her BBB is currently soaking in really warm water - it did get rinsed with with hot water and a bit of pine o clean (we think she has a belly bug cos it was bright yellow - and lots of it!!!)
Gigi - yay for wees!!!!! Its so exciting!!!!!
Maz - poo to emb machine - grrrr
Rhyb - did you know that the elastic was gone? Did the seller mention it? I think that is sooo rude if they didn't.
Not much going on here except for nasty yellow poos and a boy who is still sleeping because he didn't go to sleep until 9.30 last night.. grrrr......
Yay for wee's in the potty! Go bilby!
As for christmas. We didn't go anywhere or have any visitors & our christmas dinner was Pancakes!
This morning I am sore from putting up the trampoline by my self yesterday. I tell ya what, I could easily live with out DH (horrid thing to say I know LOL) but I think to put together a 10 foot tramp AND bunk beds with no help AT ALL is pretty darn good LOL. But Far out my arm is sore from pulling those springs into place!
Poor Isla just freaked out as she was sitting on DH's lap & HE freaked out thinking Poo had leaked from her nappy. He jumped up with arms waving & lots of LOUD EWEWEWEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW only to discover it was weetbix! The poor girl is rather freaked out by poo at the moment so he did nothing for her little issue with that over dramatised reaction!
Iain is now wearing BBB's with out foldin gthem down. He can also wear his WC night nappy & its a perfect fit.
OH AND He was wearing the Pooh & Tigger outfit Mel bought him the other day. thing is, its a 00! He is growin gso fast!
Maz I cant even believe your attempting an embroidery machine, I cant even work a friggen needle and thread by hand So my hats off to you, hope you get it cracking.
Sooooooo Merry Boxing Day to me, Dh gets yet ANOTHER sleep in and I get woken up with "Good morning mummy, got poo nuggets on my fingers!" After a world record leap out of bed (think I pulled a tummy muscle), frantic checking of other limbs and bedroom finding its only on the hands, washing of said hands I hear Ripley awake.
Smearing poo on HIS door
He pooped up the back of his nappy and was sitting against his door (vacuuming surprise surprise ) rubbing his back against it.
So its a poo day today. And I need a drink (or sleep). But instead I shall be shopping which at this point in time does not cheer me up at all.
OMG yesterday was full on!! My sisters kid was a terror, throwing tantrums left and right until I had had enough and cracked it with him. I told him he couldn't play in the dome that Ashton was in so he threw a rattle at Ashton and copped him fair in the face! He has a bruise today So I growled at him, and then asked him to pick up the toys he had thrown on the floor in a huff, he wouldn't so he went to the corner, I picked them up and then wouldn't let him play with them so my sister cracked it. I hate family sometimes. She lets him get away with everything and he is a little **** because of it! I mean he is 3 in April, and should know better. He chucks a tantrum when he doesn't want to do something, so she does it instead... just feeding it as far as I am concerned... drives me up the wall!
whoops... maybe I should have put this in the venting room Sorry!
Anyways, kids had a blast, loved their pool and spent most of the day in it until they were blue and teeth chattering...
I was still cleaning up at 11pm last night! Ended up leaving the rest till this morning
Ashtons dad is coming to see him in an hour and a half for the first time... I am so nervous. I hope he doesn't start drama... I am so not in the mood.
PMSL FJ - what an overdramatic reaction indeed. Although one would think that after four kids your DH would be a little more used to poo? I tell you, he wouldn't have wanted to have been in our pool yesterday...
Mel - good luck with Ashton's dad's visit, I hope it goes as well as it possibly can.
Anna - that's the start of a poo day indeed. Not a nice thing to wake up to. We've had a poo week this week (generally four a day, his best effort has been six...). I think that I'm going to have to stop feeding him.
Rhyb - how are you and Aiden hon? Bummer about the BBBs, what a PITA.
(Warning, incoming TMI grossness). We had our first ever poo in the pool yesterday, and I can tell you, our swim nappy is frickin useless. And it wasn't a nugget, either. Ooops. I've been meaning to buy a new swim nappy for a while, his current one still fits, but it's a bambino mio and it's a pain because it's a pull up even when there's no poo in it, but now for sure a swim nappy with snaps both sides is on the Christmas list. Gigi, there's heaps of entertainment in sultanas, except when they're floating around a swimming pool... Eeeeuuuuwwwww.
Oh and Gigi - BIG CONGRATULATIONS and HUGS to the Bilbster for her first wee in the potty. Wot a clever Bilby! Never mind that the undies stayed on, that's a minor detail!
