Hi Everyone,

I've been reading but it all just got so chatty in here that I felt a bit overwhelmed and couldn't do personals - too hard basket. Now it has gotten even worse and I don't remember what I read!

Happy Birthday MM for the other day!
Squidipa - oh big yay for the adoption process! I hope the next step all goes well.
Yay for all the accomplishments the babies are having atm!

Teary moments - I cried when Jett giggled for the first time. It still makes me almost cry - such a precious sound!

Jett has been rolling front to back for some time now, although only regularly for the last 3 weeks. He has been practicing his back to front one though, mostly landing on his side and going back again, but the other day he got 3/4 way over, just had his arm stuck beneath him! He doesn't arch his back to do it though, he just lifts his legs high in the air and swings them over.

Jett had his first hair cut today! His mohawk was just getting a little too long to be manageable!

Ok, my mind is drawing a blank right now, been Christmas shopping all day and have no idea what is going on!

So big hi and to mums, bubs and Bear!

[mountain mummy]

woohoo Joshie!!

Squidipa - yay for the adoption getting well and truly under way!! And big for the weight gain ... another couple of weeks and I'll bet Joshie doubles his birth weight!!

MT - WOW! a hair cut!! None of my kids were anywhere near ready for a haircut til they were 2 years old!! for Jett getting good at rolling!! Veygas still prefers to just lie there and kick ... but they all develop at their own pace, so I'm not worried!

Oh well, better get back to it - this house ain't gonna pack and clean itself!!

Big to all!!

Hi everyone

Congrats Jett on the Haircut!! Nakitas hair is growing well now, but won't need a haricut for a while!!

Yay Jazz for spinning in circles and the fab sleeping/feeding pattern! I tear up looking at Nakita's first clothes, and she was wearing Pumpkin Patch teddy bear clothing, the 00000 suits were huge on her, I have a bit of trouble looking at her early photos too now

Hugs' Pixie for the crap day, hope the rest of your week is fabbo!!

Squidipa a few things for you
-Thankyou soo much the parcel arrived safe and sound and is going to get me through a few more days! 6 a day I tried to wean to 4 a day again (3rd try) and milk just faded away
- Massive congrats on the weight gain He has over taken N again!
- Congrats on the adoption, I hope things continue to go smoothly and quickly!

MM good luck Packing, I should be doing some myself, perhaps when the office shut's down and I am at home more often....

Awwww Mel aren't they just beautiful

Aawww Sasha - how gorgeous!! Better get some piccies!!

Hi to everyone else, I hope you are doing well!!

We had Nakita's 6 month checkup with her Paed, and all went really well. He was really happy with her development, very happy with her weight, length etc. Told me to ignore the nurse who said she needed to be fatter PMSL! He said her legs were fat enough!! ROFL!! Also said that she si ready for solids, but it is our call, and discussed that it was more of a social decision now rather than a medical one, but based on her age between 4-6months, and he said that with her prematurity she is almost 4 1/2 months and that would be ideal. So I think we will embark at Christmas time, when I don't have to go into the office for a few weeks and we can take is slowly. Her stats were:

5850grams (+3500 grams since birth!!)
64cm (+18.5cm since birth!!)
43cm (+9cm since birth!!)

He thought she was beautiful and was just really happy with her development and growth and of course her smiles!!!

Sooo THANK YOU ALL for being there for us in the past 6 months it has been a massive journey and I can't wait to keep seeing our babies develop and grow together.

Must run, got an hour before I have to go out again!!

Hello all, thought Id pop in and quickly say hi!

Couldnt get on earlier today and just havent had the chance to get back till now.

K had his 4 month vaccinations today - he was such a good boy, didnt cry at all
He slept for about an hour and half straight after the shots then had half an hour power naps here and there this arvie but no grizzling whatsoever YAY!

Sold K's fisher price swing on Ebay yesterday so had the chick come around this afternoon to pick it up. Gonna buy a UV cover for the stroller tomorrow and i'll possibly spend the rest of the money on toys for him.

Anyways I'm knackered so am gonna hit bed early.... nitey nite!
