Im sooooooooo excited! Looks like the grant we're getting from the government is going towards out holiday to the bech for xmas holidays! The best part is the rent will b ahead and bills all paid, we can take most of Dps paycheck with us also! this is all if we stick to the budget!!!
Just had to let my excitment out somewhere :dance::dance:
Thats awesome Kass, i can't wait til we go on a holiday, prob wont be til late next yr. We got our baby bonus today and its gone straight into savings, the grant we get for xmas will prob go there too.
Charli got weighed and shes doing great has put on 315g in the last week, bf is going really well, although im a lil over the whole demand feeding sometimes. lol.
hey kirra! thats great! Keep up the great work with feeding! savings......sorry what are they haha
thats awesome news Kass that you are going on a holiday & the bonus is going towards your holiday :) i wish we got the bonus a it would come in handy around christmas!
Kirra - excellent new about Charli putting on weight :) Alexys has put on 180grams in 2 days so everything is going great with that but still having a few attachment issues & am now having to use a nipple shield to get her sucking technique under control as she likes to lick like a dog :p hehehe
Not much new happening here..slowly getting used to everything but loving it all at the same time :D Nicolas is wonderful
Hi girls,
glad to hear everything is going well with the new borns.
how is everyone else?
maddie and i have been quite sick, i have tonsilitis and maddie has an ear infection :(
im starting work again this saturday at my old job as a florist. setting up a wedding on saturday but only working 4 hours which is good.
well ill speak to you all soon, take care x
LOL Kass i used to be like that too but DP is dead set on saving for a house. lol
BF isn't as easy as they make out huh Trini. lol. i had attachment issues at first too, luckily its all under control now although bf on demand is driving me a lil bonkers. hehe. Good to see shes puting on weight, thats really good.
Sorry to hear u and maddie r sick amy, hope u both get better soon. Congrats on the job and GL for saturday, not that u'll need it.
thanks kirra, also how do i get to your birth story, im pretty bad at trying to find things like that on belly belly. its like a maze to me.lol
BF is alot harder than everyone says. they say its painful but dont say how painful and i never got any details of how hard it was so i was very dissapointed when it took about 2 weeks for maddie to get into it, i thought it worked straight away. good luck to you girls coz it can be hard and dont feel bad if you want to put the baby on formula in stead of the breast.
anyway, i think im still almost asleep coz i just yabbered to much. lol
have a great day girls x
Well we found out why Miss M isnt feeding properly, she's started teething!!! She's chewing on everything (including me), dribbling everywhere, not sleeping properly and has a little white lump on her bottom gum in the middle. Miss M must be getting enough to eat though, because we had our health centre appointment yesterday & she's put on 710grams in the last month. She's now 7.1 kgs or 15 pound 10
Well done Trini
Kirra - well done on the savings, we were looking at buying a house but the repayments we about $30 a week out of our reach so we are going to pay off the car & credit cards ASAP then start saving
M2M - have fun at work on Sat, hope you & maddie are well soon
Kass- Yay on the holiday! I will update my pic today hopefully....
Hollye - Give playgroup Victoria a call or visit their website & they will give you contact info for some playgroups in your area
Sorry if I missed anyone
Amy- here is the link to get to it

Sal- OMG, maddie is so big compared to when i last seen her. Ouchy on the teething a biting, i hate to say it but when charli starts teething she's also starting formula.
I'm completely buggered now, im gonna eat my ice-cream, brush my teeth and go to bed, hopefully charli will wake for another feed before then so i can get some decent sleep. No chance of a sleep in tomoz for me, DP is going for his fork license test at 7am, fingers crossed alyssa sleeps in. lol
Night all, enjoy your weekend
hey kara,
beautiful birth story, loved it.
how are we all?
i have really been panicking lately coz we have been in such debt but i have remembered today about the money from centrelink and a few people have told me that we get $2400 so i am sooooo stoked. that clears most of our debt and bills and christmas.
maddie is becoming such a little person lately, she is waving all the time, blowing kisses, spinning around in circles, kisses you on the lips when you say kiss and talking and babbling heaps. i cant beleive how fast she is growing, there is something new every day.
hope you are all well.
Ames x
Amy - Whereabouts do you work? I noticed you were in Perth so I thought I'd ask
oh thanks for reminding me, i have moved to dunsborough, about 2 months ago and have forgotten to change my location. where abouts do you live in perth?
Thx amy, i am very proud. lol
I went shopping today with just charli and it went pretty well, considering she threw up what felt like about 50ml+ of her milk all over me. lol. needless to say i walked around with a very wet shoulder for the last half hr.
amy, i heard it was only up to $1000 per child. correct me if im wrong. i won't get to spend much of it anyway, dp wants to save it all, although we have to get a cot so it will most likely be coming outa that.
yeah its $1000 per child that was born before midnight of the 14th october 2008. So me.. we dont get it. Missed out by 8 days! :(
on the brighter front.. IM GREAT! Mia is great! took another pic of her today, its in my gallery!
mwah xoxoxoxo
oh hollye- she is just beautiful!
Amy - I'm in Morley (for now) until the 10th when we're moving back to Rockingham, just to save a bit of cash before we move into our place in baldivis
oh cool, wow thats alot of moving. when are you moving back to rockingham and then to baldivis? if your ever down here on holiday you should let me know and we can meet up.
how is everyone else? you are all very quiet. havent heard from Sally lately
