Leash - next week is good - will also put on happy pants Dunno about him with a xmas tree - we don't "do" christmas, so we don't have a tree... and I dont' think mum or his other grandparents had one last year either.. might just shock him thats all.. he's pretty good if I tell him not to touch something (over and over forty THOUSAND times)

Squidipa, i have been logging Jazzy's feeds and for how long... Tuesday - 13 feeds, Wed - 11, Thurs - 15, Today - 6 so far... So I hear you on being tired! She was sick yesterday though...

i have been logging Jazzy's feeds...

I have been writing down K's routines too, thought it might be interesting to look back on when hes older.

Last sunday we took his first lot of footprints with paint hehe I decided that it would be kinda cool to look back on aswell. Did it on a plain piece of paper which I am going to glue into a hard book. going to make it a ritual that we do it every 4 weeks. I might even get crafty and turn it into a scrapbook LOL

Will do his hand prints aswell eventually, tried sunday but yeah it was just a mess as he hasnt quite grasped the whole 'i can open my hand' yet hehe

Just had Grace on her play mat while i answered the phone and she rolled over from her back over her left side onto her tummy ! she got her hands stuck under her tummy and basically just chewed the floor till i untucked them but i was very excited, and i she seemed quite pleased....or just confussed as to what all the fuss was about!

MT: how funny, we just said ''aslong as she isnt rolling at night you dont have to worry abuot teaching her sleep unwrapped'' and now she has started to roll. should i worry about her rolling over at night?

Mel - pmsl@ your DS!! It's amazing what kids come out with ... we have to watch ourselves, as Khaemon is an absolute parrot atm!! LOL! It's funny when kids say things so in context as well ... when DD was younger, she was having trouble one day pulling her boots on and she came out with "god damn mother f***ing son of a b****!" I pmsl for ages!!! LOL!

Bec - WOW for Grace rolling! Veygas tries to roll, it's more rocking from side to side atm, but he "back crawls" and uses his legs to spin himself around. LOL. I don't think Grace will try rolling while she's asleep, but if you're worried, maybe place a rolled up blanket beside her body to stop her if she does
Oh and that funny wondering-why-they-are-wet feeling ... happened here the other day too, TWICE! Once with the baby and once with the toddler ... first time we'd had MCN blow-outs too! Admittedly, V hadn't done a poo for maybe 4 days, and K had eaten lots and lots of fruit! Fun times!

Leash & Mel - pmsl @ "happy pants"!!

Squidipa & Leash - I can associate with those frequent feeds from DS1! Master V is lucky if he feeds 5 times a day! But they are usually quite long feeds ...

Sash - the footprints ae a good idea!

Kel - yay for Allegra sleeping!

We had a bit of a scare today - when DP got up and into the bath, Khaemon decided to stay home with daddy while I went to get DD from preschool. When I got home, DP told me that as soon as I drove out the driveway, K got out the front door - DP found him up the road (lucky we live on a very quiet street!) ... he had tried to follow me cause he changed his mind

Hmmmm nice and quiet here right now, might just sit back, relax and enjoy it!

OMG I have finally got Beth to sleep she has been awake since 3pm! I was trying to get her to sleep earlier but kept getting interrupted - here is the rant I posted on the other thread:
GRRRRR!!! Integral Energy keep sending incompetent fools to my door trying to make me sign up to their electricity service, and all I want to know is how much will it cost through them and what's the catch (ie. does it get expensive after an introductory offer) well, they can't tell me that, can they? So I tried to get rid of him by saying I needed to talk to my husband and I need to put my baby to sleep so can you leave me something to read/ discuss with my husband? No. they didn't have any extra leaflets that they could leave with me. I'd just got rid of the idiot and started all over trying to put Beth to sleep when the IDIOT knocked on the door again and said could I call my husband? NO HE IS ON A PLANE FROM SINGAPORE RIGHT NOW!!@@ HE IS NOT CONTACTABLE AND I NEED TO PUT THIS BABY TO SLEEP!
At first I thought I was being a bit unreasonable, and then I thought, actually no I'm not. They have sent people round to tell me I can save money by changing suppliers and all I want to know is how much, but can they tell me that? NO. Can they give me a piece of paper so I can work it out in my own time? NO. did either of the idiots they sent around have so much as a calculator? NO. All they wanted to do was sign me up as quick as possible.
Anyway moving on......
MM scary about your DS getting out the front door! and about the MCN blow-outs! and love the new ticker
sash - LOL about the hand prints
Leash, you poor girl!
Mel - LOL at your boy! what a crack up!
big to squiddy, kel, MT, SB, beck and everyone
