L word season 5 DVD box set. Been hanging out for the Australian release since January!
:cheer: My Baby Girl is 4 months old today!!! Where did the time go :cheer:
N was so buggered she crashed at 6.30 last night, I gave her 80ml at 10.15, but think she could have had more, cos she woke at 4am then 7.15 for feeds, was a warm night though and I was thirsty too! She is now crashed out in her swing!
We have baby bounce and rhyme at the local library at 11 amd prem playgroup at 1pm so a busy day ahead!
OMG you girls can chat!!! I haven't had time to post, and only just read up on your posts! I will try a few personals..
Big :hug: Pixie for the teeth, I hope they don't come through ouchies for both of you
:hug: Mel for Aricyn, I hope he is feeling better real soon, bugger the Dr can't find anything
:bluecheer: squidipa for the 80gram gain, that is fantastic and I totally understand what you are doing! It might be me soon, weigh in day for us tomorrow, praying it's our last official one for a while - I feel as though I have been saying that for months now!!
:o for the 6-7 kids!! I don't think I can handlethat he he we are hoping for 3, DH al ready wants to be getting lots of practice in!!
Yay for "fluffy mail" MM woot! Awesome piccies!!
Kel, I am sure you will convince your hubby again!! :rofl:
Yay for Jett being an Angel MT
Rachel, what magical Boobie Milk you have, N needs fattening up!
Sasha - Kye is doing great, I hope you get your smaller gain and we get a bigger one this week!!
Okay now I am lost... can't go back any further.. I need to keep up, but your girls are just so quick and with work, N and our busy social schedule, I just can't!
Oh yeah our costumes arrived, Nakita's Lady Bug and My fairy (hoping that when she is older she might have a fairy stage and I can use it again!!), looking forward to tomorrow night! :dance:
Must run, eat, shower and work before we are out for the day!
Gotta run but just wanted to say
:cheer: HAPPY FOUR MONTH BIRTHDAY NAKITA! :cheer:
Morning all!!
Pixie - We think Veygas is getting teeth too, you can see them under the gum and he dribbles enough to ease the water restrictions Australia wide! :rofl:
Vic - OMG, 4 months already??? Happy 4 months Nakita!! :confetti:
Mel - does ricyn have vomiting and diarrhoea as well? Kaliah's preschool sent home a note about some virus... hang on I'll just get it ... walk walk walk, look look look
Ok, it's called Rotavirus ... BUT if he's not got the vomiting and diarrhoea with the fever it may not be it ... Don't mean to worry you, just checking, cause they reckon the only way it can be diagnosed is by lab testing of the poo (eeewwwwwww!) :hug: for you hun!
Leash - Veygas is waking a bit too again ... sometimes it's just the once (2am) but equally as much it's 12am and 4am ... and I'm suffering from insomnia again - I haven't been able to get to sleep until after 11pm for about a week now, and after I feed Veygas, I can't get back to sleep again ... did someone say ZOMBIE???? LOL!
We are over buying DVD's!! We have started downloading episodes of various shows from iTunes (yes we are Mac freaks!) and hopefully we will get the Apple TV gizmo by Christmas (our pressy to each other LOL!)
Anyway, I'm gonna have a cuppa before my little man wakes up! WWOOOOOO HHOOOOO the sun has started to come out!! :dance: (pity I chucked the clothes in the dryer at 7.30am when it was all misty and rainy!! :angry: )
Hello :hello:
Vic- HAPPY 4 MONTHS NAKITA!!!!! I think I might have to buy one of those swings it might help with the velcro days. And you'll most likely have a fairy stage Cadence is going through a huge one at the moment
MM- that virus sounds horrible! We've just had one sweep through our house hold Cadence had it coughed over Allegra she got it then Allegra sneezed on me and I got it and trying very hard not to pass it to DF. HAHA zombie I hope you get a chance to become more human soon.
Pixie- Teeth already wow! BONJELA BONJELA hee hee
Mel- saw your pic of your poor little man you can tell when they are sick just by looking at them sometimes.
Leash- sounds like you have a real party girl, lol waking Shel.
Squidipa- Holy moly 10 kids :o imagine the car I mean bus you'd have to buy hee hee
Hello everyone I missed
well don't think i'll ever have another baby DF and I are having troubles at the moment.
On a bright note I got to bed before 11 last night it was 10:30 but still it's before 11 and she didn't wake till 5 :dance:
MM - hear ya on the dribbling babe. And I think it's definitely teeth.
Kel - already onto it with the Bonjela. At the moment unless I put it on before she has a feed, she keeps pulling off and crying and doesn't feed properly. :wall: Sorry to hear you and DF are having problems... hope it works out for you.
Mel - hope your little guy is feeling better.
Wow what a day, spent five hours walking around the city and Beth screamed all the way home on the bus :doh: but how much do i love my stepmum she did some shopping for me so I didn't have to try to fit that in as well.
big wave to all :leap:
i was told rotavirus is gastro is that correct. I was also told when Josiah had his injections that the rotavirus is LIVE in his poo for like a few days after tooo. did anyone else hear this?:
Vic congrats on 4 months :) lady bug costume awwww, yeah i have a fairy one and gave myn to my daughter as she grew out of her fairy costume :)
Gudism i hope you little man gets MUCH better soon!!!!! so not fair is it.
well everyone i am buggered Josh has been having 6 BF's a day and as much expressed milk as i can do so in evening its 125ml then 3 other feeds of about 50-80mls during day thats on top of 6 feeds. Hope he is gaining weight my boobs feel so warn out with all this sucking and pumping its like i need a booby holiday.
Kel84 *BIG HUGS SWEET*
If there was an emotion with roses i would give you a dozen :p
*EDIT*
i today requested the first lot of information for adoption to come through yay:)
End of EDIT*
MM - Yay for cloth. How are they going? I love the pics!
Squidipa - :yay: Fantastic weight gain! Go Joshie! Go Joshie! Go, Go, Go Joshie! :cheer: Sounds like he is beginning to really feed well with all that extra milk! I know what you mean about the booby holiday, Jett has been feeding alot today, although I think that is just because it is warm.
Leasha - :rofl: for the cruise! Why not? Glad to hear Shel has become domesticated. And I am right there with you needing that VBAC, although I have only been given a 40% chance of success due to my circumstances. My Ob said most people have a 70% chance so the odds are in your favour!
CM4E - What's the score on Seven's routine?
Arimeh - Sorry to hear about the last few rough nights. Poor DS, he must be feeling so miserable.
Pixie, Squidipa & MM - :omg: TEETH????? Where have our gummy newborns gone???
Sasha - We love the calming vibrations so much in this house that we have run out of thme!!! :lol: (Gotta change the battery!) :crossfingers: for smaller gain this week!
Kel - Yay for Allegra being brave for her needles! Jet is yet to have his.... next Saturday. The question is will Mummy have her brave face on?? :-o :comfort: for having troubles with DF. I hope you can work things out.
Rachael - What a healthy boy you have!!! Glad he is a good traveller though. I think Jett would be too, we get out and about alot and he is always better behaved when we are out than at home. I think he just gets bored sleeping at home so he prefers to sleep when he is out! :lol:
Vic and Nakita - Happy 4 months!! Hip Hip Hooray! Yay for dress ups! I love costumes, but I make them myself. I have some great ones too, my favourites are Rainbow Brite and Woddy and Jesse from Toy Story! For those on Facebook there is a photo of me in my Rainbow Brite costume in my photos!
I'm glad everyone else gets just as distracted as me! heehee!
Just read all your comments on the crash yesterday with the eight people. Yes it is legal in this state to have more passengers as long as all the seat belts are being used. It is frowned upon of course, but I think it is a throw back from the days where you piled the kids in to the back of the kingswood station wagon and went down the street. I have to admit that I have been in an overloaded car as recently as 2 years ago. Not normal behaviour for a 30 year old! But mind you every time we have done it the driver has always been so careful cos they don't want to draw attention to themselves. The first time we had 7 in a taxi!! That time we went through a booze bus!! Lucky it was cold and wet and the windows all fogged up! And then the one 2 years ago we also went through a booze bus. There was 7 of us in that one too. The funny one with that one was the driver was shuttling the hens party to the pub and we were the first trip. By the time she dropped us off and went back the booze bus had moved to the other side of the road and she got pulled over again. This time they picked her up and fined her cos the car wasn't registered to her new address. She had done the paperwork but it hadn't yet been processed. Lucky we weren't all in the car that time, cos it would have been a very nervous wait! But those idiots in the coupe - fancy overloading a two door car like that and then speeding. I'm sorry, but there are some people more idiotic than others!
Well, my angel disappeared today and I got Velcro Jett back. But as Leasha said this week, being 12 weeks is a wonder week where they become clingy, cranky and cry alot. Although it is only supposed to last for a day or two this time rather than a week or two. He has been so clingy that I have been writing this off and on all day and I got no lunch! But I reckon my angel will be returning real soon! :D
Last night we had a late mothers group so all the Dad's could come along and learn to do infant massage. It was great, although Jett doesn't like massage very much. Whenever I do it he cracks it halfway through too cos he wants to go to sleep. But we'll keep persisting!
Morning all,
Just a quick one as Kye is due for a bottle. Kye slept from 8pm thru till 3am last night :dance: then 3:15am till 5:15am so 9 hours sleep total and boy does it make a difference to his mood. He is laughing and giggling away; so cool!!
Well today is another weigh in - thanks for the "small" gain vibes :lol:
The past two days I've noticed he has just got heavier when I hold him so I am pretty sure he will easily hit the 8kg mark today!
Once thats all over and done with Kye and I are heading up to Brisbane on the train to The Wesley hospital to see a friend who had her baby on tuesday.
It will be Kye's first train ride so that's gonna be interesting :lol:
Anyways gotta go feed the man before he starts screaming the neighbourhood down.
Morning all!
Well, we had another sleep through last night :leap: 11.30 till 6.40!
MT - I really need to get ahold of this wonder weeks book, because that is sooo what happened to DD this week. Good to hear it's only going to be short lived.
Sash, hope your little guy hasn't gained too much weight. and yay for the first train ride. I took Beth on her first bus ride yesterday. She loved it on the way into town, but she was screaming on the way back cause she was starving.
Squidipa hope Joshie keeps stacking that weight on. Booby holiday! I could use one of those myself!
Mel - :crying: I can't believe you have to go back to work ......
I went into my office yesterday cause I needed someone to witness a stat dec and it was the first place I could think of where a bunch of lawyers were probably standing around doing nothing :rolleyes: it was nice, everyone admired Beth and they asked me to their christmas functions... it occurs to me I really have to go and have a serious talk with them about what happens at the end of my ML cause I will need to put Beth down on waiting lists for CC and I have probably already left it too late.
Big 60th birthday party for the ILs tonight so a busy one today.... have a great day all. :leap:
MT, actually I read your birth story and ours was pretty much identical, right down to labour length and why we had to go c/s. Jazz was trying to come out sideways and got stuck on my hip. Apparently, according to a stupid hospital ob, I should never ever try for a vbac. :tmi: to him
Weigh in for us today as well, hoping for a gain, I think N has more creases on the backs of her legs but not certain, we don't have "rolls"!!
So this Wonder Week how many times are they waking through the night before sleeing through again? I thought the night before last was because it was hot but nup an extra feed was put in at 4.30am last night too, plus settling and I am buggered!!! Going on Gestation which is what the WW does N is 11 weeks.
I want my sleeping baby back :crying:
Kell, how is the sleeping and dummy going?
Yay Pixie for the sleeping again!! I hope it is me too soon! I tried to get the book but they are as rare as Hen's Teeth!! I need to borrow it from the local library!!
Yay Kye - what a champ all that sleep, :bluecheer: for a small gain!
Leasha and MT I hope you both get your VBAC's!!!! :vbac:
He He Squidipa I can't wait to see N all dressed up, must go and put the washing on after I have finished this feed so it can be washed and dried for tonight!
Big Hello Hugs and Kisses to all this morning xxoo
Josh seems to get extra thirsty in this weather too!!:
Hey that sounds great a late mothers group for dads to participate. I actually don't do baby massage i have a few times but josh gets cold to quick. Funny that one minute he is hot next he is all patchy in color and cold. BUT he does love a foot massage when going off to sleep. He also LOVES he nose and eye brows being stroked what does all your bubs like to go off to sleep. Josh LOVES my singing even when it is just a made up song about his thunder bum:lol:
:
SENDING SMALL VIBES!!!!!!!!!!
i guess you need the small ones and i need the BIG ones its opposite but the feelings and concerns i would think are just the same just opposite. Good luck sweet!:goodluck: yeah josh travels well on the train, I hope kye does too Congrats to your your friend.
:
My boobs were just so sore not cracked or anything just feeling over sucked stretched or what ever just uncomfortable i expressed 160ml this morning and 125 of that will be the late night feed josh is due to feed again in 1 hour where ill express again and will probably give him that expressed amount straight after feed. Hope you have a good time and beth behaves at the 60th
GOOD LUCK ON EVERYONES WEIGH IN'S BIG VIBES:leap: and small vibes :crossfingers:for everyone who needs them!!
Just make sure your collecting your right vibe :p
well Joshie needs me and i need to put abc on for DS3
Chat ya all later before i go has anyone actually bought or used or know of someone with one of those Ft massager's ya know the thing that vibrates and ya stand on it? what were the effects?
Another thing i havnt got my period should i be worried????? the last drips and drabs was at 7.5 weeks-8 and its now on week 13
Half your luck hun, I got mine on 8 weeks and its 12 weeks and got it like clockwork yesterday GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. Wasn't even this bl00dy regular when we were TTC!!! I think you said this is the longest you've bf for? Maybe you are one of the lucky ones who has delayed AF when bfing?:
Another thing i havnt got my period should i be worried????? the last drips and drabs was at 7.5 weeks-8 and its now on week 13
Enjoy AF free Squidipa!!! Mine hasn't come back ... yet, but I have felt some cramps like I used to, so who knows!!! But I won't be risking another bub too quickly!!! :lol:
I am enjoying every moment!
you are correct this is the LONGEST i have BF for yay :):
yeah i have had some nasty nasty nasty cramps then a few days later either a brown spot or a very light pink spotting just once off's But it has happened twice now two browns and 2 pinks over the weeks but nothign eventuated.:
Yay for Nakita turning four months!
I was so going to ask about AF as I had a day of very light brown blood (sorry if TMI) the other day but that was it. Wondering what that was??
Old blood it was but then like me ya have to wonder o.k well were is the rest of it :o:
How are you??
I'm great thanks.. and thanks for asking :) I've been so busy trying to get back into doing my business (I had two jobs, lecturing and running a business and I've stopped lecturing for probably a year) - I employ my brother so need to keep an eye on stuff he's doing. Add on top of that two trips away and that's why I haven't been on the site so much lately... I wish I had more time to chat!!
I have no complaints about Eli.. it's been almost 3 weeks since he did a stomach-emptying spew yay, so I think he's grown out of it :D He is 12 weeks old today!!!!! My little man is growing up so fast! He's such the best baby, he will fall asleep in my arms when we're out at night *so cute*... I keep being thankful at how easy going he is and I almost feel a bit bad when I hear how your babies have been screaming and waking up at night and stuff.. like I've got it *too* easy, y'know?
I would love to meet you all in person.. we will probably be going to Melbourne at some point next year but that's a LONG way away from where most of you are!!! When are you coming to NZ squidipa?
I have two close friends having baby boys, one is due Dec 31 and one is 4 days overdue - I am hoping she goes into labour this weekend!!
xxx to all - I'm going to catch up on this thread properly soon!!!
hi i am booked to go for march next year for 4 weeks coming back on the 5th April flying into Auckland and staying at Glinks gully for the whole stay batch:):
Didnt you say you go out near Dargaville on trips or did i get that wrong?
Hey guys
having a crappy day.
BBL for personals.
Big hugs mel!! xox
I often go camping at Kai Iwi lakes which is about 30 mins north of Dargaville, it's so pretty there and great swimming.
Kel - sorry to hear you and DF are having probs babe :comfort: Hope you get it all worked out soon.
Pixie - wow, a bus ride!! I was gonna say you're game, but then I remembered all the public transport I used when DS1 was a baby as I didn't have a car then ... we even went to Melbourne on the train!! LOL.
If I lived closer, I'd offer to babysit for you when you go back to work!!
Squidipa - I couldn't say for sure if it is gastro, but preschool warned us tha it was going around .... I don't think a fever is involved in regular gastro though ... And YAY for the adoption process starting!! :dance:
Veygas loves my made up songs too!!! (especially when I add in that I'm crazy 0 he giggles uncontrollably!! LOL):
Josh LOVES my singing even when it is just a made up song about his thunder bum
No AF here, and if my other 3 kids are anything to go by, I'd say I'm set for the next 4 to 9 months ... :rolleyes:
MT - cloth is going good ... I have already come across a couple that I don't like, and a few that I REALLY like!! LOL!
I can't believe that it's not illegal in Melbourne to have that many people in a car!! :o
LOL@ "Velcro Jett" - sounds like a cool name!! hehehe
Leasha - LOL@ your :tmi: ... I wouldn't listen to him either!!
Sasha - GL:goodluck: for the weigh in!
Rachel - you could prolly meet up with MT (I'm pretty sure she's in Melbourne or thereabouts!)
I think you are lucky to have such an easy going baby!! Veygas has his moments, but most of the time, he's pretty easy going too!
Mel - :hug: for your crappy day hun! Can't believe you're almost going back to work ....
Ok, so I think I have caught up (and all I did was go shopping this morning LOL!!) Yes we definitely are a chatty bunch! And as this has taken me about 45 minutes to read through and reply I have totally forgotten what I was gonna say!! LOL!!! Oh well. I'm sure it will come back to me ......... eventually!!
Anyway, I think I should eat before I need to pick up the kids! LOL!
Eli loves me singing to him too - he either squeals, laughs, smiles or focuses intently and tries to sing along. LOVE IT! I am SO not a good singer but for the first time I just don't care, he appreciates my singing :D He loves "Old MacDonald" the most :):
Veygas loves my made up songs too!!! (especially when I add in that I'm crazy 0 he giggles uncontrollably!! LOL)
PMSL Jazz loves my rendition of tooty fruity lol
"Tooty fruity, Jazz is cutie, tooty fruity, mummas loopy" :lol:

Today i ment to be getting kids froms school but the ex is taking them to a disco as his mother made them an outfit so yay more ME item wells hared me time with hubbie and two boys. He will drop them BOTH off tonight after 9pm. Oh and also the Ex got a job His first job since ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh EVER it feels like well first job since i separated from him I am so happy for him as he is very well educated and has a masters degree.
:rofl::rofl::rofl: Leasha that is PRICELESS!!:
Squidipa - :hooray: for exH's job!!!
yeah as ya may have noticed i actually get on with the EXH MOST of the time:) its great cause he NEEDED it He has never actully got a Job in that trained profession so i am happy very much so for him. It Hasn't been he hasn't been able to get a job, he has been offered many positions and never applied for a job that was the issue he had no interest in work just wanted to stay at home with kids. So i am delighted he applied and got it He is doing web design. I think the reason why i am so exited for him is i KNEW he could do it. I also supported him all through uni and the better bigger bit is the kids will benefit from his extra income YAY!!!!!:
Hi everyone!!
Been a busy week here- DH had a friend come and stay and my little man has begun sleeping all night!! Which is great for night time.... but now he has decided to stay awake ALOT during the day!! So i have been doing some major entertaining here!!!
Leasha.. lol at your song!! I have discovered i need to re learn all the nursery rhymes.. poor shane gets half a rendition then alot of humming and daa daa dee dee daa daa's where mummy has forgotten words!!! lol
Mel... Hugs i hope you feel better soon
Squidipa... yay on some good feeding there!! Shane loves to have a rub on his forehead too- i find its a good trick to run my finger down his nose as he drifts off- it helps him close his eyes!!
I still havent got AF back yet either- but i have been warned that noe DS is sleeping all night (and has done for a week straight now!!!) that it may return soon... and i have been getting cranky like i do before she arrives... so i am guessing she is on her way :cry:
Sorry this is short and sweet... time to take some cute pics of shane in his cool Halloween suit!!
WAves to all!!!
yeah thats what i do tooo:):
Veygas slept through the night for almost 2 weeks (and is now waking once or twice again :doh:) and I still have no sign of AF ... I did start getting a little bit crampy - well not really like AF crampy - and realised I had been a little crampy a few weeks earlier .... I know it's a long shot, but maybe I have started O-ing again ... :dunno: Hard to tell while still BF-ing but all signs seem to be pointing that way ....:
Squidipa - that is sooo good about EXH!!
Can't believe we are up to 70 posts on this thread already!!
Anyway must get lunch ready!
Toodles! xxxx :)
Just a quickie as i am sure that you would want to know as its a burden on my shoulders i have been sharing with all of you
All i have to say about its
:bluecheer: :bluecheer:Since wednesday we have a GAIN of 95 GRAMS!!!!!!!!!:bluecheer: :bluecheer:
And its not even offical weigh in yet
Hi all
Well MIL has left so now I'm back in the midst of things. Have read back through the posts briefly but wont do personals, too hard :lol:
Had a $hitty day yesterday - I was racing against time to get to see my friend at the hospital. Had to be there by 1pm as apparently they are strict on mums resting between 1-2:30pm. I caught the train from Robina at 10am which would of got to the station I was wanting to get to just after 11am so yeah went up to Roma St, got off and had to change platforms (had 3 minutes to catch a lift down to the subway, run along to the next lift and get onto plat 8) got on the train and thought yay cool we've made it. Sat there and the train didnt make a stop for like another 10mins and I was starting to think "I did get on the right train" then found out it wasnt stopping where I needed to go to cause they were doing work on the line :angry: first stop was corinda; I had no idea where I was so caught the next northbound train back to Roma St. By the time I got back it was 12:15pm and I was told I would have to catch a bus!!! I thought bugger that - its all too hard so caught the train back home to Robina :lol:
so yeah yesterday was a good train ride :rofl: Kye was really good too - bar the fact he decided to do the biggest poo on the way home.
Changing him while the train is rocking around was such a mission!!
As for his weigh in yesterday; good news he only gained 250 grams :dance: I guess thats still quite a big gain but I was expecting 300-400g so I was real happy :lol:
Anyways dinner is a calling so must go... hope everyone is enjoying their saturday!
Hi guys - sorry been MIA for a few days - been a really rough week.
Squidipa - congrats on the gain - thats a great amount!!!
Sasha - congrats on the small gain.. lol
Can't remember what else was said - but :hug: to everyone.
Things here are ok - mum took DS for the day so me and DH got stuck into the housework. So at least the house is reasonable now - that makes me feel much better!!!!
I weighed and measured DD today - as she is now 13 weeks and everyone was telling me how long she is..
so..
Length - 67cm
Weight - 5.7kg
Such a long skinny thing she is!!!!!
:hug: to everyone - and hope you are all having a great weekend!!
G'day everyone! Hope you are having a great weekend!@
We gained 40grams, so Nakita is 4500grams exactly, it felt like more, so it was dissappointing to see it, but at least it was a gain. We have a few things to try this week, and have to get weighed again next Friday. :doh: Was really hoping for a week off weighing in!
Also today my LHS nipple is split and OMG it is killing me! I am piling on the lansinogh, hoping that it is improving b4 her next feed or I might have to try the nipple shield on there. I have just given N her late evening bottle, we have got her back onto it after waking at 4.30am for a few days!
We went to the halloween party last night and got home @ 1 am, but as I had a head full of glitter hairspray I had a shower washed and blow dried my hair and got to bed after 1.30am :o
I am wondering the same, I will know within the next couple of weeks:
I know it's a long shot, but maybe I have started O-ing again ... Hard to tell while still BF-ing but all signs seem to be pointing that way ....
Fabulous news Squidipa!! :bluecheer::
Since wednesday we have a GAIN of 95 GRAMS!!!!!!!!!
And its not even offical weigh in yet
:rofl: that would have been interesting!!:
Changing him while the train is rocking around was such a mission!!
MM all I can say is - Wonder Week!!! I hope!!:
Veygas slept through the night for almost 2 weeks (and is now waking once or twice again )
Can't wait to see his pics!!:
time to take some cute pics of shane in his cool Halloween suit!!
That is brilliant Sasha, I was sooo happy for ya when I got your message :bluecheer::
As for his weigh in yesterday; good news he only gained 250 grams I guess thats still quite a big gain but I was expecting 300-400g so I was real happy
Wow Mel, she really is long!! I will get N's length done this week when we weigh in again.
Here are some links to piccies of me and little miss N!! I hope they work they are supposed to be public links to Facebook!
Nakita and I
Nakita getting sleepy
Nakita sound asleep
Well, I have just perservered through expressing, the let down didn't really happen either, just too painful, ouchies!!!
Hey folks
Quick personals first....
Squidipa :bluecheer: YAY FOR JOSIAH'S WEIGHT GAIN! :bluecheer: You must be sooo happy that all your hard work is paying off! Well done.
Vic - cute photos, must have been a fun party! Love the lady bug outfit!
Mel - Miss M is so tall! Hope DS starts being good for you again, sounds like he's been hard work lately! And great of your mum to take him for the day - what a shame you had to waste it on housework LOL
Sash - what a PITA! but at least Kye enjoyed his train ride! Train is about the only transport we haven't tried Beth on yet. She has tried a car, plane, bus and boat!
MM & SB - no AF here either.... and Beth has been sleeping through (mostly) for a couple of weeks. The Bear keeps saying he thinks I am pregnant again cause I have been a little lazy about contraception lately :redface: and I still have a little pot belly. God I hope not, :pray: Really don't want to be pregnant again right now! Have to be more careful!
Leash, kiwigirl, mel, it's funny how they like our singing! No one else in the world would like mine, I guess that's one of the joys of parenthood LOL - great song Leash :rofl:
(Mel you're excused from reading the rest as I already posted it on July)
Well, we have had a super busy weekend. Friday night was the big 60th birthday bash for the ILs. They had a great time. We took Beth all dressed in pink with little fairy wings which everyone thought was sooooo cute (took one cute pic which I'll post eventually). But it was at a lousy time for a 12 week old baby.... it started at 7pm and went on all night, and there was a live band, and lights and dozens of drunk people who all wanted to squeeze her cheeks and cuddle her. She hadn't had a proper nap in the afternoon so she was pretty much on the verge of a nervous breakdown the whole time. We didn't really let people cuddle her because she would have just screamed the house down. We left about 10.30. Yesterday we had the markets in the morning and in the afternoon we had a boat cruise around the harbour which the Bear organised with my (sort of) uncle. It was a great day and much better for Beth, she slept a lot because the rocking of the boat was very soothing. But she also got passed around and made googoo eyes at people. The Bear's sister is in town (both his siblings are in Australia for the 60th) and she is really :angry:ing me off. She is constantly trying to grab Beth and then immediately starts posing for photos with her. You can just see her thinking "I look so good with this baby". Her mother and husband are always on standby with the camera as soon as she picks Beth up. She has never taken any interest in us (the feeling is pretty mutual) but now she has tried to invite herself over for dinner next week. I don't really want her to come especially since I have guests 2 other nights this week, I think cooking for guests 3 times in one week is too much to ask, and since she is the least welcome I think we will tell her to organise a baby-friendly cafe. of course she is such a cheapskate she will just get her mother to cook so it will be dinner at the PILs. The photo thing really annoys me too, because no one takes photos of me with Beth. There are going to be more photos of SIL holding Beth with that ghoulish creepy smile than of me with her. The poor baby is going to grow up thinking I didn't love her :crying:
And my mum is back from Italy tomorrow so we will lose our second car and the one we were going to borrow next has fallen through.... so it's walkies for me again!
Hello all,
Im back finally after our computer had a meltdown - again.
Yay for Josiah! He's really doing well now! Congratulations!
Sorry, I have no hope in you know where of catching up, so I won't even try. I have so much to do before the wedding - in 2 weeks!
Seven had a bad night last night, not going to sleep until 2.15am. I think it was because we didnt' do 'The Routine' so I will be back doing it again tonight!
Hope you are all well. Gotta fly!

Afternoon all :)
Vic - thanks for adding me as a friend :) Hope your nip is getting better!!!! that stuff is brilliant.. such gorgeous pics too honey..
Pixie chick - ooh could there be another bub on the way? hehe... we haven't been lazy with the condoms - I even put a couple in DH's pillowcase.. LOL Can never be TOO careful.. not that we are doing anything to make a baby :rolleyes: And can I slap your SIL? Sounds like a total cow.. and don't worry, beth will know you totally adore her!!!! Just from the sheer number of pics you take of her - she will know you spent all your waking time with her and that she was sooo important and precious you didn't want someone else to take pics of her - you wanted that yourself - hence why you aren't in the pics too. I'm never in any pics with my kids - cos I hate my photo being taken.
Oh and such nice pics.. sooo cute... she's gorgeous.. you guys have to meet up with us!!!!!!!!
Kell - hope you have a better night with Seven tonight.
DD woke up at 1am last night- first time in weeks!! - and DH couldn't settle her, and he was getting so frustrated - which was making me angry hearing him get angry at her - so I grabbed her and went out to the loungeroom and gave her a bottle - she sculled the lot!! LOL musta been hungry!!!!!! I thought she was going to be a shocker to settle too, so I just put her in her cot, gave her a couple of pats and went back to bed.. I heard her mutter to herself and then I woke up at 7am.. pmsl.. she must of gone back to sleep herself - what a treasure.. ;)
better go do some more housework I suppose while both kids are asleep!!!
