    Hi Everyone,

    To the new girls Ive just turned 31 and have two boys Zander and Wyatt, we moved here for my husbands work at easter time and dont have any family here and the only people I know are through this website!! It gets stressfull and sometimes I just want to pack it all up and go back to where my parents and all the help is!!

    We wont be going anywhere tomorrow...will just spend the day at home..try and do something next thurs. Wyatt is still waking at night he seems to be in a routine of 1am/4am and 530am waking. He is not taking to the bottle or formula very well and will only eat rice cereal..he gags on potato/apple/pears etc....very high maintenance. Zander loves daycare and seems to be in terrible 2's mode already including bad tantrums.

    I have enjoyed the rain..only downside is having to use the dryer!!! anyway take care everyone.....bye for now

    Yeah, we;re staying in, how awesome is the rain? wow, ive been on this site alot lately.... maybe im starting to get abit of free time haha, glad your in a routine of sorts, brodie wakes at the same times, 1am, 4.30am and then up at about 5.30am. Sometimes he'll skip 1am but always up at half 5 am, usually I put him in bed with me til about 7am, he just babbles and stuff but its to early and im still way to tired hahaa..
    Ive been having moments because my nanna is really sick and is in deep dementia from multiple strokes and bens family came and visited then his sister came up and it really makes you miss home. Guess thats where this site can be handy, meeting people in similar situations.
    well i have a 8month old boy who is very grizzly and needs to go to bed but im trying to make him hang out til at least 7!
    enjoy the rain!! i saw some kids playing in it today and thought if i had the time and energy would have gone out with my two eldest ones.
    take care

    WOW! We've finally made it to our 2'nd thread!!!!

    Sorry I've been MIA a bit lately and have'nt been posting. My life has been rather busy with Doula stuff lately.

    Just thought I would pop in and say hi!

    We probably wont make it to the meauseum tomorrow as I have more Doula stuff on. Plus the girls are pretty crook with the flu and coughs!!

    I will be at the Musuem tomorrow. Looking forward to it though I will probably get lost getting there. I am so bad at directions.

    Tanya, I am sure you will do great for your P's. Agree with Emma that parallel parking is a pain. I still can't do it properly.

    Emma, DS means darling son, DP is darling husband, DP is darling partner and DS is darling daughter.

    Better go. I think something has died in Cooper's nappy.

    good morning ladies, how are we all this morning? good here DS has just gone off to kindy and DD is chatting away in her cot so bottle time for her soon! I dont no how you ladies do the whole waking up 2-3 times a night! I have been pretty lucky both off my kidlets have pretty much slept all night since 6 weeks, we do have the odd "off" night were one will wake and im the crankest "*itch" when that happens ...so i take my hat off to you ladies! Sarah yes i am from huggies hehe, i beleive we have met b4 (online anyway)! Thanks for all the encouragement ladies with my P's, a couple of months ago the inlaws were here, and i was driving them around Father Inlaw needed to use to loo and we were on the strand near the rock pool and i remember freaking becuz it was reverse parking and ended up driving half way up the strand to find a spot to park and made him walk hehe! (lucky there not old).. I have a driving lesson today so i guess i better mention the whole parking thing, and that indicating crap around roundabouts..i dont get that ..Well sorry ladies im already babbeling! Have a great morning every1, and thnks for being so welcoming , hopefuly one day i will get to meet you all ! Bye for now...xox

    Ah, its been a little hard because Brodie used to sleep the whole night but after he has immunistations he gets really sick and throws everything out, we actually had a good night last night, he went to bed at 8pm slept til half 3 then up at half 6. So hopefully getting into a good sleeping routine again, Im trying to feed him up through the day to help fill him up. Rori has always been an amazing sleeper she'll sleep anywhere from 10 -12 hours. She's just sometimes a little difficult to get to sleep! But you cant win them all and like I said no 2 babies are the same...
    Have fun with your lesson today, when I went for my p's i was in the middle of the sa desert on a 48degree day 7months preggas with my son with no air con in the car... lucky for me she was hot and didnt want to do it and just made me drive around the block!! So.. I never paralell park. Id rather walk!! Haha.
    Well we are having a very quiet day at home. Im hoping to make it to the post office but not holding my breath.
    Take care ladies and have fun at the muesum. It is quite good.

    Hi ladies - I dont know whether I really qualify for a Townsville mum as I live in Cloncurry. But I visit Townsville as much as I can - if you have ever been to Cloncurry you will know why!
    Anyway - I am originally from Townsville. I lived there for 20 years before moving out here to be with my DH. I had my little baby girl 9 months ago and I had her in Townsville so I am hoping that gives me a little foot in the door anyway.
    Have a great day/evening everyone!
