'm back!! YAY.
Hellllloooo everyone, it has taken this long to get our phone & net connected. I tell you what...they say it's because we live remote!! they should have seen where we moved from,he,he.
How are you all...sorry I'll try to read & catch up without getting confused.
OMG Mel....congrats!!! YAY - it's now 3 in the group with another bubs on the way?? HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Olivia!!! did you guys have a party?
Have I missed any others who are 1?? Ooooh not long now, we will be having a BBQ for Charlie with just some friends we have made here...just to acknowledge the day. I prob wont make a fancy cake as I did that before we left WA with all his little mates there.
Kristie I think you were asking about presents....I like keepsakes or things that make Charlies room fun. He gets spoilt with lots of toys from everyone else. Charlie will be getting some outdoor stuff from us as we can now go outside as it's not so darn hot here, he also needs a book for daycare for his special paintings etc so I plan to decorate the cover for him & give it to him on his Birthday also. Also thinking (depending on time) about making him his own colour & number book using pics of him....hmmm depends how creative I get.
Mel & Jen, we have sleep issues here also. After a full week of sleeping through things just went pear shaped & Charlie was waking every 3 or so hours & not settling at all without a milk feed, arrrrggghhhh! We first thought teeth but no real symptons, but think it may be put down to him being cold. We've started rugging him up more & only having 1 wake up now! Wow I really thought by 12months he'd be sleeping through, oh well. As for teeth we have 13 already, he teeth's every other week, the only good thing is I suppose not many more to go!
Wow I think I'm getting brain strain tryting to read all of the posts. I'll have to read up tonight when Charlie's in bed.
Quick update on us. The move has been fantastic, this town is so great!! I have 2days a week work that is great but Charlie screams each time we get to daycare & it breaks my heart...he doesn't seem to be enjoying it at all. I'm now playing netball & joined a great playgroup...so much better at making friends now then I was in the last place & i'm really enjoying myself. And we have SHOPS here...LOL...YAY!!
Charlie has a mouth full of teeth, though still refuses to eat finger food....has anyone else got probs with that??? We are on cows milk as of last week, as he's almost 12months & tbh the cost of another tin of formula was the decider...we have to be sooo much smarter with our money as we are looking to buy a house here & they are sooo very expensive. Not walking yet, who's bubba's are walking?? Oh & the strangest thing, he points & pushes buttons etc with the wrong finger, he uses the "naughty" finger..weird, we are trying to teach him the right way.
Oh, got to go that's my big boy now. Hope everyone is well & will drop back in real soon to catch up more. Take care.
Busy finalising stuff. thinking of taking next week off work too.
