Hmm sounds good Bel - got room for one more ? Hehe, funny with the J's
Jen's just been to the shops and has gotten a roast chook... so that and salad and maybe potato gems or chips for dinner is my guess (she has a ton of work to do and an important meeting tomorrow morning) - we didn't have any chicken breast for me to do Sushi
-
Abs - Chicken sounds good! I'm having Blue Grenadier and salad for tea.
Bel - i just bought some of those biscuits thought i would be nice and give charlie one. I gave him a choccy frog last night was soo funny.
-
just had to share. nixon did his first Semi solid in his nappy yesterday!
it was so funny because he was grunting & moaning for about 5mins i thought he has to be doing something! i think nappies will be a whole lot easier when they r more solid & can flush them away for sure!
i just counted out a whole heap of change we had been collecting for ages (had to bag them for the bank cause apparently they dont have the counting machines!!) we had $160 which is going into Nixon's new bank acct! Not a bad start.
-
Hi everone.
Abbey's needles were fine, she only cried for a second and has ben good so far tonight. They didn't weigh her so I will have updated stats after her CHN checkup.
Nickers.. lol at the semi solid I bet it will make it easier. And yay for the change, thats a great start to nixons account. We have a money tin near where we put our keys etc when we come in and I try to put all our change in that. Just waiting for it to fill up and see what we have.
Bel.. lol at janae sneaking josiah biscuits. how cute! hope that you and josiah are feeling better and also that your interviews go well.
Jacci... you will be busy with all that, hopefully it diesn't get too much for you.
Well I have been late night shopping tonight (blegh) meant to be trying to find summerish clothes for me but couldn't find any i liked. Got abbey some cute stuff though.
better go, abbey has fallen asleep on my lap, I think she is dreaming about the needles cause she keeps sooking in her sleep. its so cute. either that or she is dreaming about having to go shopping again lol.
-
just played basketball - had a win - YEAH!!
Amanda - gee Abbey must be good - charlie screamed from the minute she put the needle in!!!
Nickers - I'm still waitign for a solid poo!!! charlie has been on solids for a few months and i still haven't gotten one!
Bought the cutest little Bootleg Levi's of Ebay the other day - they just arrived they are soooo cute!! he had a little check shirt on with them and a blue cap - looked perfect!
anyway better go give my little boy a feed then go to bed - talk to you in the morning

Wow our lil ones are just growing up so quick, learning all this new stuff at this age.
Wow on lil Abbey Amanda, she's certainly coming along huh.
Awesome on the talking from Charlie & Josiah, Sush & Bel. No sign of it from Holly yet.
What an achievement from lil Jordy, hehe, all in 1 day Abs.
Hope Nixon's legs loosen up Nickers. Wow so the fence certainly did do the trick then, hehe, they didn't whizz on it did they, hehehe. Holly was doing kindof growling type sounds last mth but hasn't done them lately, t'was so funny, no squeals yet though.
That was lucky Jacci. Our 8yo Rottie (got put down in Jan) was so scared of thunder storms she'd find the smallest darkest place she could. She then started jumping through our back ent. room screens so we had to put some grills up, despite her kennel being dark & warm, that wasn't good enuf. We then ended up having to rig up a doggy door type situation on the garage, as she always felt safe in there. She barged through our old timber side fence previously too, so had to put colourbond up. But our other rottie doesn't care about storms.
Hehe Jacci, that'll keep u busier, as if ur not already. :)
Mitch, what a cutey.
PMSL Jacci & Lisa on the farting.
Yeah hope the ceremony goes well Lisa.
Hehe it does sound cute though Bel. Hope the interviews go well.
Spew: Hehe on the spewy shirt, on my first day at work, I had some medicine left on my shirt from where Holly wiped it on me, was white & dry. And I'd forgotten BB pads but even though she had been fully weaned 2 days earlier (which was down to 1feed), I leaked a little at work & realised when I looked in the bathroom mirror that you could see this dry small white ring u know where, on a black polyester shirt, lovely, hehe.
Since changing Holly from S26gold to Amcal formula, Holly hardly vomits at all & when she does they're just little.
Sitting: Holly sat up unassisted (she was supporting herself with 1 arm) again today, for about 30secs again, so is getting closer, then shortly after toppled again, hehe.
Dance: Oh & when the learning puppy plays music (either she pushes it or we do), Holly occasionally lifts/swings her pelvis back & forward a little whilst on her belly, as though she's getting all excited & trying to dance, so cute.
-
Shell...how cute with the dancing. And very clever sitting up.
Jacci.. did you take pictures of charlie in his cute outfit? the nurse said to me that she finds boys worse at getting needles than girls.. makes sense if you think of how sooky they are when they are older lol (sorry abs!)
Did a fashion parade for DP when he got home with abbeys new clothes..luckily he thought they were all cute so I didn't get in trouble for buying more clothes hehe
Quick Qst... Is any other bubs doing pushups? When abbey is on her tummy she pushes up so she is just on her hands and toes with her bum right up in the air.. It looks cute. Not worried but just curious. She can get on her hands and knees too and rocks and tries so hard to crawl.
-
No push ups from nixon, he doesnt like tummy time so never lasts very long. i think he has forgotten that he learnt how to roll off his tummy cause now he just gets grumpy,face plants & wants me to turn him back.
Shell- LOL about leaking at work, it was probably very obvious to you though & no one may have noticed! still i know how u would have felt when u seen it lol!
my mum & dad are driving down atm. we'r going to a wedding tomorrow & staying out the night, have a babysitter looking after Nix while the reception is on. First "unkown" babysitter, hope he goes alright!! its in like a retreat place so our room is in the same location as the reception anyway (i'll prob run back & check a few times through the night!)hope everyone has a great weekend!
-
Amanda - it's a proven fact (through my years in dental) that the bigger the man, the bigger the sook! The bikies are the worst.
No pushups here, he just stretches to reach everything and gets angry when he can't. My lazy son won't even roll for me, although I have it on good authority that he rolls all the time at my dads house when he's there on Tues & Thurs. He does sit up on his own now for long stretches, which is great, coz he was getting so bored on his back/ tummy. When he can pull himself into a sitting position once he's fallen over, my life will be complete.:cryinglaugh: (Although, so sad coz he's grown so fast - just can't win!)
Yay on the b'ball win Jacci. Janae's godfather dislocated his finger playing on Monday Night, he sent us photos on his phone - it was horrible. his finger was at 90 degree angles at both knuckle joints - like steps. I'm surprised it wasn't broken and they were able to pop it back in quite easily (after giving him a local).
K, better go get ready for the gym. Have a great morning everyone, BBL.
Bel

Bel - YUK!!! on the finger! its like when you watch RPA and you hate watching blood, but you can't look away when therecutting someone open. Iwould of had to of kept staring at his finger!
I am the same as you - i would love charlie to be able to either roll over both ways - or b able to pull himself upinto a sitting position - coz he gets bored on his tummy and back!
Shell - hehehehe at the leaking mark! - i remember playing against a girl in netball and she leaked poor thing was so embareased. That is so cute that she is dancing - hehe
Nickers - good luck with the leaving nixon with a babysitter, as you said atleast you can run back and check on him. hope you have fun at the wedding
-
Just thought I'd do my 1900th post here!!!
-
Wow Amanda, Abbey sounds really strong, no pushups from Holly. Is it just my imagination or do boys develop at a quicker rate than girls? All the boys around Holly's age are developing much quicker, all sitting, most crawling or nearly, etc. :)
Have fun at the wedding Nickers.
Haha on men being sooks, hehe.
Ouch on that finger Bel, that woulda been painful for him. WTG on Josiah sitting up all on his own Bel.
Oh & yes congrats on that win Jacci. Wow, congrats on the post # thats almost double mine, hehe. :)
Hmm I've been trying to get Holly to sleep for the last hour, but she just won't have had her up twice now, not crying as much now just hear her making noises, have a GP aptmt for her in 30mins as rash on chin/chest getting worse, & does sound like dribble rash like GP mentioned last wk at my aptmt (receptionist said) so she'll prob just give her some cortisone cream or something.
-
Shell - Charlie had a rash all round his mouth from the dribble - and then his dummy would rub on it! - my doctor gave me a very mild quartozone (sp) cream only 1% it has cleared it up so well.
-
hmpf - jordy was fine with his needles - the 2month ones he was worse. And I inject 4-6 times a day too
No pushups here, and some of the others are definitely "developing" quicker than Jordy, eg rolls, situps etc, but he is doing just fine - no need to rush these things :P
We just had a triple sleep Shell - as in 3x40mins - down at 11 and up at 1pm
Pretty casual day here, nothing overly much happening bar the usual. Though waiting for Jordy to have the rest of his bottle (only had a bit) so Jen can go run some errands
-
Shell, Charlie's not sitting neither has he gotten on hands and knees, only commando crawling! I don't think he's going to do anything early either! He's hitting his milestones pretty much on cue, if not a little later than normal.
-
Abs, yeah I know there's no rush, I was just curious. :)
And those that are crawling are saying cherish them whilst they're not, hehe.
Hmmm, my hunch was right, I didn't think it was dribble rash. GP took 1 look & said it's excema on her face/chin/neck & heat rash on her belly. And the nappy rash developed at the same time. She said never put steroid creams on a baby's face, some chemists will tell you to but dont she said, so she prescribed Elidel cream (pimecrolimus), had to get govt auth for PBS as is expensive, they only give to babies on PBS apparently. Twice daily til all gone, then use zinc & castor oil cream on area (to protect from moisture/dribble).
-
Shell..its funny how drs have different opinions isn't it. Abbeys dr said that steroid cream isn't as bad as its made out to be. As long as its not used for a long period of time. He prescibed betnovate ointment and it was the only thing that cleared up abbeys excema on her face, but it was a last resort thing too, so if this cream works for you that is great. The main thing i found was to keep it moisturised and as dry as possible and keep her from scratching or rubbing it. Hope it clears up soon.
I have been trying to get a picture of abbeys push up all day, but she is only doing it when i don't have the camera. cheeky!
-
Amanda, trying to get that perfect shot is a real art... need to have someone else with the camera that bubs doesn't know is there, ready to take it. Once they realise hiding person is there, the chance will be gone
We've been lucky rash wise, don't think we've even had any proper nappy rash, let alone anywhere else :o

sorry charlie attacked the keyboard...
shell - it amzes me how babies develop differently too - i always thought girls learnt quicker - but in this group seems to be the boys.
charlie is sitting on my knee playing with my hair talking to it - he is so gentle - hasn't pulled it yet!!!
-
oh, well that is where Jordy is more developed than Charlie, Jacci
Jordy grabs Jen's and wont let go !!
I'm about due for another #1 soon - still not long enough for him to grab though
