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!!

jjj, sorry to hear jorja isn't sleeping so well, I hope it has improved. I can sympathise with you. Both of mine are up through the night.
Good luck organising your wedding, it will be fun. It doesn't have to be stressful. I had a great time organising mine! Sooo long ago now though.....
Lea, glad to hear the naming day and Nix's bday went well.
I hoep the medicine is still working for gabriella and that your bf'ing is going good. Have you managed to sort out your problems?
Erin, what a clever little chicken Beth is rolling already! Lucky you had the video camera out!
I love your ticker pic too its so cute!
Tasha, good luck with the camping I hope the crappy weather improves! You're brave taking a new born camping, LOL!! I thought I was doing well taking Liam to a friends place for the weekend!! I hope you have a good time.
Well, we have had a lovely day, we went to Mt Annan Botanic gardens. It was really nice. A beautiful day, not too hot or cold. Lily had an absolute ball running around in all the free space, and there was a lovely little playground for her to play in. She had a great time with some other kids chasing her and slimbing on stuff she's allowed to climb on, LOL. Liam was really good and just slept most of the time.
Ok gotta go, hope everyone has a great weekend.
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
Hehe, no milly you're not the only one...I'm just feeling reeeeaaaly lazy Well that and Lil's sick again and clingy.
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.
Milly, I have done ww, just before I fell pg with Lily, and I lost 10kgs on it. I found it really good. Though I went to meetings not the online one. Good luck with it
Ok I'm going Lil's crying and DH is trying to get ready for work. hy does she always get sick when he's working night shifts?? I'm in for another sleepless night I think....
Oh Kel sorry to hear that lil is sick again. You must want to pull your hair out some times. At least you know that she will be well again as soon as DH is off night duty LOL. Liam is doing well, he and Tom are almost the same but Tom is a little taller but seeing i am over 6 foot thats not so suprising LOL. After re reading danielles post i think you did well to not say anything about having your kids close in age LOL
Lucylu: IKWYM about crying, i feel like i have had such an emotional day and its just reading those birth stories, i think that i need to take the warning when its says "may upset"..... Keep us upto date about WW you are doing so well, but boy you started early, i thought i was doing well...
Danielle: Just wait i cant remember what you said......right re read your post HOLY ****... how could i forget LOL..... Well i am glad its you and not me that could be UTD, im crazy and want more but not just yet LOL. Its lovely that your husband is on side cause boy is he going to cop it a few times over the next few months if you are. We had unprotected sex the other day too but as still feeding over night and there is no sign of AF, they didnt return for almost a year the last times My belly is to remain empty for awhile, after 5.4 years of either being pregnant or Bfeeding i am looking forward to a break when Thomas weans! Keep us up to date mate.
Going to go and play with the kids now Thomas asleep agian after sleeping for 5 hours this morning
DANIELLE: Hope i didnt sound too shocked LOL. As we said we are all so lucky and if you are pregnant it would be the best thing in the world....so many people so want a baby i really souldnt joke about one coming when it wasnt really planned..... however whenever its a lovely thing to happen
She has had high temps of 38 to 39 degrees, which in a baby her age is not good.
My gorgeous girl had to have a lumbar puncture. I felt so helpless, i could hear her crying but couldnt go to her as they wouldnt let me go in That came back clear though thank goodness.
She is now on a drip having fluids and is on 3 different antibiotics IV. Because they dont know whats causing the infection they are covering all bases.
She will be in hospital until thursday at the earliest.
She is really not well, she cries even if you just move her or touch her, particularly when she has a temp.
Ive come home tonight cos of the other kids, Im going back there when they are at school.
Just thought i would come in and let you know and ask that you keep her in your thoughts and send her fast recovery vibes.
oh no kristi, I'm so sorry. How terrible that she needed a lumbar puncture, would have been torture for you too feeling so helpless. I'm so glad that came back all clear.
I hope they find the cause soon & can get rid of it. Poor little princess.
Sending bucket loads of get well vibes. I will keep her in my thoughts & prayers & hope she's home with you soon!
Big hugs hun
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!
My clever little bunny!
Even better, I actually caught it on video. 
I will post the link when DH puts it on youtube!
