    Morning all

    MM - that ticker pic is soooo gorgeous - and yes, a little bit like the character from the ticker.. lol... DH and I pi$$ed ourselves laughing last night at it... hehehehe.. he is SO very gorgeous though.

    Vic - happy 5 months for N - I think I forgot to say it before. And gorgeous pics as usual!

    Pixie - yay for Beth sitting up, that pic is GORGEOUS - and yay for helping with nappy changing - I have two here that DON'T help.. lol.. especially the toddler - he likes to scream, and kick me with his legs....

    Beck - I bet your xmas tree is lovely - we don't have one here. I don't have Miss M up for that long during the day - so I never have to entertain her that much (usually she stares at the tv and talks) but she likes her play gym thing, and talking to her brother or the cats!!! lol

    MT - at least one of the kids needs a nappy change before leaving to go anywhere.. we are usually running 5 minutes late ALL the time. I really should do one of those courses too... yay for Jett's weight gain - woohooo!!!!

    Leash - Sorry for not getting back to you, I was online cos I never shut BB down - but I'm usually outside doing stuff with DS during the day - or just not AT the computer - so sorry I didn't reply... we had Miss M's check up yesterday (which took me 2 hours at the docs) and her vaccs - so I wasn't actually at home (though DS was - he was with my mum) anyhoo - next week?

    Kel - its hard when both kids are crying huh.. Miss M is about to lose it I think, getting close to bedtime for her - and DS wants to go outside and play with the puppy dogs - but can't do that until I hop off the computer, put her to bed and put his shoes on.. oh, and I'd like to get out of my jarmies too.. lol.. oh and def no sex drive here.. lol

    Squidipa - yay for Josh's growth - thats fantastic!!!!!!

    Hi Sasha !!!

    hello to everyone else.. better go - someone keeps trying to put his shoe on the keyboard of the laptop - think he's trying to give me a hint that he wants to go outside?

    Oh and Miss M's latest stats were
    HC ? 40.5
    Weight ? 6.13kg
    Length ? 66cm

    And she was very brave with her needles yesterday - was a bit unsettled in the arvo - but was much better after we all took a nice cool bath (it was HOT here yesterday - very sticky).. seems back to normal this morning!!

    I have to laugh when reading about everyone's "stats"

    Kyes as at Friday 28th Nov were:
    Head: 44.4 cm
    Length: 68cm
    Weight: 8.63kg

    Bloody huge he is!! I was looking at all the babies yesterday (as it was the first time I had taken him there) and of course he was the biggest by miles but yeah he was the oldest too which made me feel a bit better hahahaha

    Yoga will be interesting today, it is so funny to see the broad range of sizes in babies!

    Man its only 8 oclock and it is already sooooo hot here

    becka i am same as every one just doing lots of things and small amounts of time i do a lot of walking on the porches as he loves it outside.

    sasha.. good luck with mums and bubs yoga sound fun!! fab weight woohooo josh is so picking up even with just 480 mil formula yesterday he had 135 gram gain over night.

    Morning all

    Last night was really lovely, the viewing of the animation went very well, dinner was yummo and the movie was okay, but the plot was a bit crap IMHO, mind you the car scene at the start and some of the fight scenes were aweseome!!

    Not happy this morning, I have just answered my mobile and it said Congratulations you have just signed up for some quiz competition - WTF!!! Not happy at all about it, I didn't even listen to the whole lot, it was from a landline as well. Not Happy Jan!!! Hubby had the exact same thing 13min later, so when N goes down I will be calling 3 to see what we can do.

    Yay on all the stats, I just love seeing the amazing differences in the bubs.

    I have just weighed Nakita, 1/2 hour after her second feed on Wednesday, if I am planning to do a official type weighin, nice and accurate for the week

    Results are:

    +180grams, bringing us to a grand total of 5470grams

    Well congratulations Squidipa, take your time with the weaning, we don't want to hear of another case of mastitis!! One of my Mothers group firends is really prone to it, she has just started weaning her little fella off his on of his two middle of the day feeds, and within 48 hours she had mastitis again!! So she is dropping the feed by alternating one day bottle one day boob, for a week then dropping it all together.
    then giving herself a week or so break before she tries the next one.

    *EDIT* Another Fab gain Joshie!! He is going to overtake Nakita again by next week I bet!! I would be guessing around the 320gram gain!

    Thanks Mel M is really long, a good 5cm taller the N

    Pixie, Beth looks soo cute in her Bumbo!!! My Bond thoughts are above

    Wow Sasha, you have grown a beautiful big boy there!! He is soo tall!!

    MT Gotta laugh about the explosive poo!! They are just shockers!!

    Well must be off, N needs another nap, then I am off to the office for a meeting, home again and off to the gym tonight Going to be a good girl

    Thanks all for ideas to avoid boredom....i do most of those things, but think i will look at getting a Bumbo, think she would like that as she loves to sit up and look around but isnt keen on being in the reclined position in her bouncer. She is not keen on her pram for the same reason so i mainly walk with her in a sling which she likes. loves to be outside. She loves looking at herself in the mirror!! easily passes 10 mins....so vain!

    MT:wish i could get grace to sleep that easily!! I tried a shower with her this morning when she was getting a bit angry and she loved it...giggled most the time, never thought to take her in the shower!

    Sasha:love the sound of aerobics or yogo...might try something like that when she wakes up for her sleep.

    hi to everyone else

    Hi everyone!

    Just thought I'd quickly catch up on posts - not really time to reply personally, but just had a big vent over in that thread.

    Also, DP rang me this morning - his truck caught fire and he narrowly made it out, but lost EVERYTHING (including his car keys, house keys etc) ... he said as he was diving out of the truck, the flames were already in the cab, and the truck burnt to the ground. Obviously he's not going to work tonight but I have to ring him in a minute cause I may have to go pick him up from the depot ...

    Hopefully BBL to catch up properly.

    Mwah!! xxx

    Holy crap MM !!!! Far out!!!!! I'm glad he got out ok!!!!
    If you need anything - give me a "hoy" ok?

    Beck - do you want to catch up sometime since we are both on the coast? I dont' work on tuesdays or wednesdays so can catch up either of those days.

    Vic - its funny you say she's long - I compared her stats to DS when he was 4 months, and he was 1.3kg heavier than she is - and just 1cm longer... now he's on the 50% percentile for height and weight - so he's a normal toddler now.. I'm expecting huge growth from both of them - DH grew 5 inches one summer when he was in high school - came back the highest kid in the class (he's 6 foot 7)... yup... I'm always going to be the shortest in my little family!!!!

    OOh baby crying.. think its the toddler..
