We are doing well. I am t-i-r-e-d, but I think that's par for the course for the next 6months at least... Liam and Lily are doing well too. Lily is a little monster, nothing new there. Her new trick is to climb up the lounges to get out the sliding door when it's open. She climbs up the back of the lounge and drops down the back, I have the lounges up against the sliding doors when they are open so Lily can't get outside onto the balcony...well I used to do it for that reason! I guess I can't have the doors open anymore We haven't really done anything exciting, just the usual, playgroup, park, shops...yada yada. DH is home now for a few days, yay! Maybe I can have a nap today, I'm sooo tired. Lil is still waking a few times a night. I think her ears are sore again. We go back to the specialist next wk (I think). I don't know that the diet thing has worked, though in saying that she has been talking alot and has picked up alot of new words. So maybe she has improved? We'll find out soon.
Liam is good too, though he's been a bit unsettled at times. Last night and the night before I was awake with him for at least 2hrs through the night. He's waking 3hrly on the dot, with one four hour sleep a night, but usually goes back to sleep when I feed him. He's getting really big now. He's already outgrown the capsule and is pretty desperate for a carseat now, LOL! He looks so squished up in the capsule. We're still feeding really well, I'm so proud of myself for doing it this time after so many problems with DD. He loves his booby and is feeding 2-2 1/2hr in the day.
Milly, I agree with your DH, it's time to have a rest and do things for you!!
LOL, lea thats the law of the world, 'When mummy sits down and relaxes, baby must cry and fuss'! It happens here too almost every time, one or the other will start fussing.
Tasha, that's great that Lucy is growing so well! I love your ticker pic, Lucy is gorgeous!!
Ok well, not much else to say. I hope all of you are well!
Hi everyone.
Well Tobias finally started to smile probably last week but he's still so stingy with them but when he's in the mood he gives a good amount He also did his first big laugh today, it was the best sound I've heard for a while!!! It was soooo gorgeous but when I got the camera out to film he stopped & hasn't done it since the little bugger!
We finally got the Territory we've wanted for ages. It's a 2008 model & its the exact one we wanted but never thought we'd be able to afford. We got a great deal as it was a Ford executives car & has done 14,000km so we got a great price. We pick it up on friday as they needed to put in the DVD player, tow ball & tint the windows. There's a photo in my gallery if you want to see it.
I must organise for Tobias to have his immunisations, to be honest I totally forgot! I feel awful.
He's in his cot now as he outgrew his snuggle bed LOL I also put a cot pic in my gallery.
Hopefully I'll be able to get into the dentist tomorrow & have my wisdom tooth taken out, I've been in exruciating pain today & stacked up with ibraprophen (sp?) as I'm allergic to codeine I cant have any strong pain killers
Well Tobias has just woken for his feed so muct be off. I hope everyone is well, should be able to catch up on personals soon.
Hi All,
Sounds like we've all had a difficult time lately.
I'm exhausted!! Jorja spent the last 2 nights awake most of the night. I think i've had about 4 hours sleep each night! I'd love for DF to get up to her up feel guilty if he does as he is the one who has to go out to work each day. So I do it, even if it means sleeping in the spare room to settle her...
Jorja is starting to smile now and it's soooo cute I could watch her all day!
We've set a date for the wedding and now have the stress of organising the rest of it. But hey, it can be fun too!
Charmalea - how funny and yes i do know how hard it is cleaning up suds. I had my younger brother here for a wk and he did a similar thing!
I'll be back later to write more, Jorja has woken up wanting boobie time
ok , so i get on to post , and now have to go out again to take dh to physio ..

Beth rolled over today for the first time!!! Even better, I actually caught it on video. I will post the link when DH puts it on youtube!
She was looking so cute during 'tummy time' yesterday that I thought I would tape her today so that family and friends in Oz could see how big she is getting. And wouldn?t you know it, about a minute in she rolled onto her back. I was so surprised that I almost dropped the video camera! She was surprised too but took it very calmly! According to my mum I was an early roller too, so brilliance obviously runs in the family! To test it wasn?t a fluke I put her back on her tummy a couple of times and she rolled over again each time. Then she cracked it with me and started fussing so I stopped trying to make her my performing monkey!
She was too tired to do it again when DH got home from work but I loved showing him the videos i had taken.
I hope everyone's bubs is letting them get some sleep. I feel so lucky (guilty almost) that Beth is such a good sleeper. She is doing 8 to 12 hour stints at night which is just wonderful. I usually wake to express around 5am if she hasn't woken for a feed.
Hard to believe that she is nine weeks old. It has just flown by!!

Hi All - Have joined weightwatchers....should be fun, started last wednesday so ill let you know how i go. I normally lose weight when pregnant but this time, oh no
Its online as well so yet another computer thing to keep me away from the housework LOL
Have just been reading other birth stories, i have just read the ones that said "warning" as i knew i wasnt up to reading these while pregnant.
WE are all so lucky with the births we had, thank goodness it all worked out well for ALL of us. The physical pain means nothing when you think about what some families have been through emotionally!
make me think about if i really want to risk having another one, i have been so lucky so far......
I'm here Milly, been having computer probs though.
I feel so crazy atm, DH & I are now thinking of having another baby after I swore I wouldn't only weeks ago. This is prob TMI but we had unprotected BD last night & I hadn't thought about timing of my cycle. AF came back on the 15th October so not sure if it's during fertile time or not. I think I must be crazy after the terrible time I had last pregnancy!! DH seems to really want another, he keeps saying "There might be another little baby in your belly right now!" with a big smile LOL
Yes we are all so very lucky to have had the births we did & especially resulting with healthy babies!
I took some video of Tobias smiling today, will put it on my facebook page later as I haven't been able to get onto facebook today (Damn computer) He still makes it hard for me to get smile photos but at least he let me get it on video hehe
hey ladies
camping was fantasic...not so scary after all, but we kinda went camping in style nice clean caravan park and lucy was soooo good.
milly, ive been reading some birth stories too and i read the same one as you i think and omg did i cry, it makes me feel so lucky for the experience i had with my kids else it would make me think twice about going for number 3, ive been going to ww for 7 weeks now and have lost 3.4kgs so far.
lea, hope the day stay goes well and poor you with the terrible twos
kristi, what an amazing journey you have had.
about a year ago someone very close to me did something horrible to me but i have come to the realisation that life is too short to hold grudjes(spelling?) and we are meeting tomorrow for coffee so i hope it goes well
bye for now
Tasha

Liam had his 6wk check up today (a little late!). He's now 6.6kg!! And 64 1/2cm tall. He's getting sooo big.
