    MM - thanks!! just think, if you lived up here you could have your munchkin in the middle of two chickie babes!! lol
    I'm working on it!!!!! I keep suggesting places to DP, and he suggested Rockhampton, so I researched schools, housing etc and now he prefers Stanthorpe out of the two!!

    My DS1 is the same with my mum (we lived with her til he was 3) but lately it seems as though she just doesn't give a rats **** about our family - we haven't heard from her since March ....

    Vic - we don't have one that's close to us (nearest is about an hour if not more away) And we started off with a nice day (had 6 loads of washing on the line!! ) but now there is a storm starting to roll in (with one load left on the line, almost dry!!)

    Better go get it before it starts to p!ss down!!

    Hey Mums and bubs

    Had a couple of hell days. I have laryngitis, the by-product of my cold which was just awful yesterday, woke up with no voice. Jett mustn't have been feeling too terrific either cos he just kept chucking tanty after tanty full of screams. With me not feeling well I just didn't have the patience, every time I would settle him and put him down he would be awake 2 mins later screaming. Feeding was no fun either - on, off, on, off, on, off etc. Aaaagggghhhhhhh! I ended up calling my Mum and she took the afternoon off work to look after him while I slept. It was such a godsend. But now today she is sick....oops!

    This morning he was ok but just wouldn't go to sleep. I went to an ABA meeting and he just kept crying when I held him. Lucky there were plenty of volunteers to give him cuddles and settle him. But every time I took him back he would wake up!!!

    But he is now in my arms, fast asleep and has been for at least 3 hours and looking angelic as usual

    It is a gorgeous day here too so I also got a load of washing on today, just hasn't made it to the line yet - bugger cos it is the nappies too which need extra line time! Luckily the weekend is supposed to continue to be fine, with Sunday forecast for 28 degrees.

    Immunisations for Jett tomorrow.

    I am jealous of all you girls meeting each other. When I get up there next you are all going to have me darken your doorstep, so look out! Actually DH and I were talking about what we are going to do for Christmas holidays this year and are considering a road trip to QLD, so you never know!!! So I can come past the blue mountains on my way MM!! Not sure who else is on my way, but it will have to be a separate trip to SA I'm afraid!

    Vic - Sorry to hear about your sister, big for you! But for Nakita hitting 4200 grams, you must be so happy!

    Well I dont believe it myself but Kye is already in bed He has had such a lazy afternoon, has slept heaps!
    Mind you we did spend about 2 hours at Robina shopping so I guess that tuckered him out.... it's such a hard life LOL

    I cant believe another week has passed. Geez the weeks are flying hey! My MIL arrives on Wednesday for a couple of weeks.
    Cant wait - we havent seen her for 4 years LOL (lives overseas) so it is going to be so awesome to spend time with her again!

    Hope everyone has a good weekend!

I was like well where do you want me to put it??? In his mouth she said. Ahh dir o.k but then i was Like what if he spits it out youll be fine just put it at side of mouth. Hrmmm Dont like nurses like that!! She was so GRRR oh i could continue on and on about her but i wont!!

    o.k maybe a bit she wanted to weigh him fully dressed and im trying to explain how important it is he is nuddy and she was not listening he did get weighed and umm GRRR he did get weighed in nude in end.


    JOSSHIE LOST 50 GRAMS.

    what can i say dr already had just told me i am over stress over all this and its making me depressed and wants me to talk to some one about it. how much lower could i feel honestly shocked, disappointed, gob smacked, what more can i say i am just WHAT NOW i am so angry. REAL ANGRY!!

    Dr said that his heart murmur was gone YAY!! He said go buy a new breast pump TODAY and stop procrastinating pretty much hahaha i like this dr he is GREAT! so we went shopping in end we didnt get one took up all your ideas and bought a breast shield just incase that works. Well does it, well i dunno but what i do know is i fed josh for worlds longest 35 mins and no detaching It may be a winner yay!! we will know on weigh in day.

    O.k also the 3 year old has Chicken pox so if anyone wants it come visit me asap!! Not only that but dr said the spots ive been coming up with looks exactly like the 3 year olds. hrmm yeah so we wait i have had them before tho so yeah we wait. the 3 year old is crashed out on lounge floor he must be so buggered.

Ahhh I dunno whats small, whats large, wheres the size measurement chart? She was like well there isn't one.
