YAY for the long sleep Vic!!! it's sooo good when that happens isn't it!
We have had a great couple of days, Beth slept through the last two nights, and this morning she didn't wake up until 7.30 my boobies nearly exploded!
I forgot to mention the other day - put her on the scale when I was at mother's group and she's up to 5.8kg! Little porker!
Kel - sorry about your shocking night the other night, hope last night was better!
MT - how was the expo? did you find anything you liked?
Mel, hope you're feeling better
MM - lordy all that washing! and yay for your son the champion sleeper!
Well, we had a busy day here yesterday, markets, a friend came over, then my mum and her friend came over and the Bear drove them to the airport, they are going to Italy for 3 weeks. Just a quiet day today I think. We just found a bunch of wasps making a nest in the frame of our bedroom window - EEEEEEEEK! have to get the pest people in, don't want them anywhere near our baby!

Morning!! (just!! LOL)

Pixie - hope you get rid of the wasps before they do anything nasty!! I hate the little buggers - our old house was a constant attraction for them!

Vic - yay for sleep!!

Kel - I really hope Allegra has settled for you hun

MT - how was the expo?

Leash - hope that abscess has cleared up!

I just wanted to say that I don't mean to sound like I'm bragging when Veygas sleeps through, cause it does worry me. I guess as mummy's, we can't win, we worry when they sleep and we worry when they don't! This is new for me, as my other three never slept through the night this young (although DD would have a long day sleep), so I'm sorry if I offended anyone!!

Have a good Sunday all!

[*Beema*]

MM - no offence taken here - I think it is fantastic!!

Nakita slept through to 7:30am here

Oh any my milk is back - yay!!

Must run. second lot of markets for the day to go to!!!

Hello Everyone,

Sorry I haven't been posting, but I have been reading!
Had a rough time the past couple of days, and DF isn't helping much! I lost it last night and had a rant in the September Baby Buddies thread, but I'm not going to whinge to you all as well!
You all have your own stuff to deal with!

I won't try to catch up now, but hopefully I can try to keep up from now on.

Hope you are well.

Vic - YAY for milk!!!! WOOOOHOOOO!!!

CM4E - hope everything starts to pick up for you hun!! Your wedding is quite soon now isn't it? Must be very stressful And hey, we are all here if you need to blow off steam!!

Squidipa, hun, hope you are OK

Squidipa, hun, hope you are OK

yeah im o.k but i guess just o.k thanks for thinking of me!!

i have read all the posts but my brain is like where do i start so im not gonna over stress it this morning,

think that Miss N slept threw night well done what a good girl
kel... that would have freaked me out but then again i grew up in some very ruff neighborhoods. So now ya wanna move are you sure? or was it just the shock of the gun shot?

CM4E.... i read your post out in the other thread to hubbie and he asked me did I post that!! i said noooo. i sleep lots on the couch too and carry josh round pretty much all day sleeps good in evening and night but NOT during day. He may not weigh 5 kilo's but he does get heavy even in sling/pouch. BIG HUGGLES

a few days ago i said to hubbie what do you think i do all day? he said Nothing honestly. he was in a grumpy mood that day but still unfair on me he did apologize a couple of times wrote me a letter and notes and sent me an email too. He said over this weekend he is eating his words as i let him take care of joshie more than normal. While i was helping kids with tree. Even tho hubbie said that and said he didnt mean it it does still very much hurt but i know that he didn't truly mean it he just had his grumps on.

Ya see he isnt working enough hours at works and they are slowly building him up after his old job ended. So we sorta having cash issues and not to mention a mans ego.

Pixie 5.8 well done certainty a great eater!!

oh crap i don memba much this morning, leasha thats great it didnt tun out to be an abses. Has all the pain gone?

well this week end we put TREE up yes the CHRISTMAS tree up.... gotta get some good use out of it takes all day start to finish. But this year it was to much with Josh so we done it over two days but i still have more deco's to hang last time i counted there were around 500 deco's i buy more every year. Its a 7.5 foot tree and the angel is touching roof like aways With 37 meters of lights on it too boot. This will be our first Christmas in this area and with joshie so VERY special. When it takes as long as ours does to put tree up we all have to help and we like to put it up early plus so the eldest two kids get thier fair share of time with it.

As the EX always says i cant ever do Christmas the way you do... You make it very special for the kids with all your traditions. Plus I cook food!!!!! And we have an eve meal this is the BIG special one gifts are given here! I do tho GRRR the EX he says all his gifts are form him none form Santa normally. Isn't it funny how SANTA gets all the credit for years and years. Its a bit like what you were taking about leasha as in i remember saying to mom years ago thanks mom for all the Christmas presents ya bought for us over the years from Santa. Everything changes when you become a parent but also your expectations of your parents change also.

This post seems to be taking me some time i have just finished another feed. It seems that josh is real restless all day long but he sleeps from last feed of day than can be anywhere between 4.50 or 8pm till 4am when he stirs altho i wake him slightly to try to sometimes feed him at 10.30ish.

Basically Joshie is feeding for 30mins on average and 4 times a day sometimes 5. I dunno how weigh in will be this week but it will be interesting i am going for 140 gain i hope Wonder how long it will take for the Pead appointment to come up.

Ya know what i did i bought a skateboard for my son for Christmas only to find there is still his old one down stairs that i thought got broken an lost or thrown out when we moved. he has obviously forgotten about it. What should i do now. I cant take it back as i got it from deals direct.

Ya know those catalouges ya get that they leave outside ya front door??? Well i am gonna get some glow in the dark angels from it yay cant wait just gotta remember to go and fill the thing out and put it out front by tomorrow.
sorry josh needs me bbs

one hand typing.... dadda is vacuuming before going off to apply for a teacher aid job well get application any how then on to work. The vacuuming has settled Josiah to sleep.

What was i gonna say??? Oh thats right MM i been thinking lots and lots and maybe thats why i am only o.k. Hubbie's been in a constant grump!! ego me thinks and i been questioning and thinking lots about loads of different topics. Do you think its strange that hubbie always falls asleep when i talk to him or if standing he nods on and off?? Think he needs to keep busy or else. Maybe low in iron i dunno We dont eat much meat here.

hrmm hubbie yelled oh SH** thinking whats happened gonna go check! back again he dropped the end off the mop down the side of the house. The gate to side of house was stuck and he wasn't looking properly he couldnt see it wouldn't just slide back the bolt so all the wriggling in the world wouldn't move it. So with josh in one arm hubbie got me the hammer and i fixed the gate.

o.k this is getting quite lengthy so i should just stop now and continue a post later if i have the time

sorry i know i forgot ppl and things... i have read everything just dont have time to comment on everything hope ur all o.k today

and wow almost 3 months old WOW!!

EDIT*
i forgot to say been waking for about 1 week now with engorged breasts they are engorged from about 1 am so for quite a few hours makes belly sleeping hard or on side so lika always not getting much sleep still wake to aching legs. OH also on day 4 joshed pooed 3 times and then a few ,ore the next day yay for poppies. 2 days in a row yay!
also DS3 is beeing a little poo !!
End of edit*

*EDIT EDIT**
DS7 doesnt listen to me saying just stay here and play and decides to follow me out side DS3 follows DS7 and DS7 slams door on DS3's toes. If they both listened to me in the first place it wouldn't have happened. I was going to check if DD was doing what i told her..Question why does it take a 10 year old 15 mins to put suncream on and its still not rubbed in?
END OF EDIT **

Morning everyone

Squidipa - I think it's just kids in general!! LOL! It takes my 7yo DS all freakin day to do his chores on Saturday - it should only take him about half an hour!! Don't know if he realises or cares that if he did it properly and quickly, he could get outside and play!!

Stress can be hard on people and make them say stuff they don't mean, hope you and hubby have sorted it out and moved on hun

Well we certainly are quiet today, hope you are all having a good day.
