Hey Dis- am hoping its a boy, I've already started with the "little fella" thing. But with dhs family history it has to be a girl. Happy as long as its healthy!!!!
Kaz- i just read your other post- the towel idea sounds like a sure thing, although very hard on your emotions. Good luck and lots of hugs.
Olivia has been stomping around- so cute. Half the day we spend stomping after each other!! Her bums cleard up- ok Kaz I use the moogoo body wash and I used the moiturizer for myself. She still got loose poo but only twice yesterday and so far once today. Maybe its her teeth coz shes sticking her fingers in her ears alot too. At least for the most part shes happy and chatty.
Well, i still think in the night garden is the best and keeps her nice and relaxed. I will try and find some dvds for her. Its on at 9am on abc and then again at 12 noon on abc2. Well my bub in tum is giving me a fair old bash, luckily the are like flicks th the moment!!!
ok, morning tea time and got to dry my washing...we dont have a line coz dh pulled it down along with our pegola!!!
Oh and we are leaving Olivia with bil and sil tonight to go out to dinner with some friends. Yay Then dh is off to sydney for a bucks night tomorrow, back Sunday night.
Kaz - Hmmm I wouldn't stress about what Pip wears to the funeral...he's just a bubba...something neat and not too bright and crazy I suppose...
We've looked everywhere for houses - still to expensive up your way for what we're looking for...
What a tough time your having with this ventalin business...I hope it gets easier as he gets used to it???
Mel - Yeah!!! I'm so glad your going to tell us!! Woohoo!!!! Glad Olivia seems better with her bum! Yeah at having a night out tomorrow with friends!! Good for you!
K...better go and have a shower! LOL! I'm so sidetracked at the moment!
Hey Kaz...Dh doesn't want to move that far out for work...He works all over the place...at least in the narre/cranbourne area he's close to freeways....It is a beautiful area though...
Hi there....
Mel - beau is exactly the same - really bad poos for the last few days, he has done four today. Where do I get moogoo for his butt? I am not sure if teething gives them poos like this - I keep putting it down to dietary things but its not that different (his diet) day to day. And you took Olivia to the specialist so who knows??? Good luck with your scan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!
Kel - Wow at Lily and her curiosity! I cant childproof our stuff cause of the stupid open houses, doesnt look so nice you know? Besides he could open those clear ones too. Sorry that Lil's sleeping has gone backwards the last few nights. Heres hoping tonight is a better one - yay to your DH rescuing you before you lost it. He must be pretty sweet sleeping with her on the couch, I know a lot of men that would just let her cry in her cot dont you think?
Von - Hugs to you, its a horrible thing and hope you are taking it easy on yourself. I have had two (one late) and you need to greive for as long as you need. Not to worry if you dont feel like dropping in here, that is very understandable.
Kaz - Glad your meds have settled a bit ad Pip is feeling better - and yay for your organisation! I did my closet yesterday and it looks great! Not a struggle to find pjs or a non maternity bra anymore!
Us - I took a sleeping pill last night and have felt floopy all day - DH just looked after Beau for an hour and I snuck into the bedroom for a nap - ah bliss! We had baths at 2pm and have been watching footy (him) and jtv (me) and eating sausage rolls and party pies all arvo! He he! Had a meltdown today hanging out washing (i am so sick of trying to get towels dry in this weather with no dryer!) and Beau pulled them in on himself in the bath before....agrh!
Apart from that all is well...hope everyone is snugled up like us x
Hey girls my scans in 1 hour...yay. I am so excited. Last night was crap. Olivia was awake fron 1 til 3, then woke up at 4 and slept til 7. She just wanted to play. I brought her into bed with us for those 2 hours and she kept head butting or kicking the wall. She would also go up to dh or I and put her head on ours and start patting our heads and saying mumma or dada...cute...but not when I was tired. Shes with mum mum today as we had to do the end of year book work...thankfully all finished. I'll have my scan and go pick her up. I am so tearful today, already cried infront of my mum, which I nEVER do, so she started crying. I just want sleep. So at this moment I am thinking of you Kel and I just dont know how you do it.
I do think she is teething, still runny poos and fingers in her ears. She wont let me near her mouth though. Mel- just google moogoo and they have a list of stockists or you can order over the net. Olivia had only 1 runny poo yesterday but her urine is burning her skin. I had to go out and buy another jar of zinc and caster oil.
Ok, well better go and drink my quota of water!!! Hope I dont pee myself!!! Will let you know how it all goes
I'm soo excited! We can finally relax a little...except that I've got a rotten headache/migraine which nothing seems to be helping with...grrr...
Anyway...settlement is on 26th sept so 74 days to go -LOL!
Off to see my uncle tomorrow...he was diagnosed with cancer a couple of years ago but all of a sudden we've found that he's only got 1 month to live....soooo sad...he's only 62 and he's youngest daughter is my age...it all just doesn't seem fair... Lucky dh is coming with me to visit tomorrow and we're going with my dad...I'm going to be a mess thats for sure...
Kel - Glad your u/s went well! Hope bubs doesn't end up too bigs!! I'm sure it will all be fine though..I remember I had a late scan with Louis and they said he was going to be 3.3 kg and he was only 2.6 so I think they overstimate rather underestimate iykwim?
Sorry to hear you had a bad nights sleep...hope you've managed to catch up! Don't be too hard on yourself though...you're body's going through a lot at the moment and with Lily not sleeping your bound to be super tired and cranky!! Try and take it easy..(I know easier said than done!)
Wow at Lily getting into the childproof locks..thats the one benefit we've had with having an old house - we can hardly open the cupboards let alone the kids - LOL! Although I haven't thought about the new place...guess I'll have to invest in some locks...hehe.
Oh Von...I'm so so so sorry to hear your news...Big big hugs...Just allow yourself time to grieve...We're all here for you when you're ready!
Melissa - Hope you've been getting some rest with Olivia's early morning!!
LOL on Olivia's tantrums...sounds just like Dylan..he gets into everything and doesn't listen to a word I say not matter how much I tell him off...he's a little terror...he's always pushing the little chairs over to the kitchen bench and trying to grab stuff and I have to watch louis and the potty or else he tries to grab it...is always climbing on Louis' bed and shelves etc...Such a fun age - LOL!!
OMG - Have you had your scan yet?????
Kaz - LOL at all your shopping - geez your worse than me!! Hehehe. Yeah at getting your storage shelves...I'm going to do a whole lot of that when we move...I need to start putting away money for a howards storage world fund I think! LOL!
So glad your medication is settling down and that Pips on the mend - Yeah!
Jen - Glad Beau seems to be on the mend a bit...Yuck at all the wee! Hehe. It seems to be a struggle for me to get water into the boys at the moment...cheeky things...
Yeah - you'll have to post the link - just copy the link from the webpage straight into your post...easy peasy! I so hope it sells soon for you!
Bugger about the washing...we've got floor ducted heating so it dries really easy over the vents but the new house has roof ducted so not sure how I'll go getting things dried quickly...we have a dryer but I only like to use it with towels/sheets etc not clothes...I think it wrecks them...Oh well - I'm already soooo overy winter - bring on warm sunshine I say! LOL! (especially as after we move we'll only be 15min from the beach - woohoo!!! )
Well my u/s went well, I guess. Bubs is healthy. He's still measuring big- between 37-38wks (eeek!!!). And fluid is still in the upper limits of normal. The Dr at the u/s clinic wasn't worried about it though and said he'll probably just be a big baby. I'm hoping that's all it is. I'm also hoping all is well and that I don't have GD. I am thinking the OB will send me for the 2hr test next week, just in case. But that's ok, I want to rule it out anyway. It's no wonder I feel like a stuffed pig!!! LOL!
My god you girls can chat!!! I will just catch up on todays posts......
Kaz, sorry to hear Pip is sick, poor little man. You guys are going through the wars aren't you? I hope you can find a peaceful way to get his medicine into him. Have you tried when he's watching tv or really distracted something? You probably have....What about a nebuliser, you can give ventolin in that, that would surely be better than a puffer and spacer?? Maybe ask your doc?
Mel, can't wait to hear what sex bubs is! Woohoo!!
How cute with Olivia's stomping. Lily does this littel running on the spot thing which is cute. She does it when she's super excited too, as well as turning in circles, it's so funny!
Glad to hear her rash cleared up. She must have pretty sensitive skin. I've been lucky with Lily's. She gets a little ecxzma, but it's easy to control. She's got a rash on her face an fanny atm. I've been putting castor oil cream on but it's not getting better. I'll have to go to the doc...
And yep, the night garden is a saviour in this house too, LOL. Lily loves it and will bowl anyone over if they're in her way when she hears it start!! The DVD's and other merchandise isn't on sale in Aust yet, sometime in Sept. I heard. There are books, I brought one for Lil the other day and she loves it. I have to sing all the songs for all of the characters....the sad thing is I can, hehehe!!!!
Dis, yay that you're feeling heaps better lately, I hope it continues!
Kris, sorry to hear 'your' house sold. That sucks. I remember looking for this place, house hunting is the worst, I couldn't imagine doing it pg with 2 toddlers.
Ok gotta go and wash up....hope you all have a good day and weekend!
I just had to have a giggle kel when you said you could sing all those songs....well me too, I am mesmorised by it too. I love iggle piggle and I have that song stuck in my head! Cant wait for stuff to come out on Aus, might be her chrissy present. I did see some on ebay though, available from UK. Arent they funny these kids. Olivia does the whole turning in cirlcles, to the point she falls down and lies there and does snow flakes with her arms and legs. Shes started singing to a musical toy, just a word here and there. I look at her some days and wonder when she got so big and so clever and so funny and cheeky. I also cant believe you dont have long to go...5 weeks OMG how time has flown. Sounds like a big boy, good luck with the birth and hope it all goes to plan for you.
Kaz- yep something neat for Pip at the funeral. All the best with it. Hope hes feeling better too.
Kristie- am sure you can find plenty of reasonably priced places in that area. Have you looked at Endevour Hills...next to Narree, but closer in??? They still have some cheap but big properties around. We like out in the sticks too, like ****atoo would be lovely, but DH is an electrician and works all around so we find springvale south central to all the free ways.
Ok, better go, am contimplating having a sleep since Olivia is. Shes been up since 615, so am tired. Oh and this baby has been going it all day....
