    Morning all!

    Vic - yay on the weight loss and fitness regime! The most I am getting done these days is just walking in the afternoon to pick the kids up from school ... I wanted to start a couple of weeks ago, but it was waaaaaay too hot and then we got the never ending rain, so once that stopped, I started walking. Plus I get to push some weight - the pram itself is about 5kg plus Veygas 7.5kg plus Khaemon in the toddler seat 13.5kg, so pushing about 26kg all up, while walking mostly up hill for 20 minutes (then downhill for 20 minutes coming home! ) Hard really to do much more with 4 kids!

    Sasha - for the commando crawling!

    Mel -

    oooh I realised today too that the reaction could have been pear OR mango (the other fruit in the mix) or it could have just been heat ... I'm gonna try him on it again and see what happens - if he has another reaction, I'll stop that particular mix.

    I also forgot if I mentioned Veygas tries "sit-ups" when he's lying on his back and "push-ups" from his tummy - it's so funny to see his up on his toes and hands balancing there (I really should try to get a photo of it!)

    Anyway to all, hope everyone has a good day!

    mwah! xxx

    That is awesome MM, it would be really tricky with 4 kidlettes to do exercise quite a juggling act !!

    We just re-did our measurements (DH and I are doing the dieting thing together):
    Week 1 Week 4
    Waist 78.5cm - 69cm (-9.5cm )
    Bust 91cm - 86.5cm (-5.5cm )
    Hips 106cm - 100cm (-6cm )
    Thigh 62.5cm - 62cm (-0.5cm)
    Bicep 29cm - 28.5cm (-0.5cm)
    Weight 70kg - 65kg (-5kg )

    I don't know if I will get down to 60kg, but if I keep my measurements dropping that it is all good!

    Wish I have done it earlier....

    Ah mel ... you know that song "you're hot then you're cold, you're yes then you're no, you're in then you're out, you're up then you're down ..." (I'm sure you get the drift anyway! ) well that DP atm on TTC ... every now and again when one of the kids does something, he pipes up with "and you want to add to the brood?" OF COURSE I DO!!! So we are not actively TTC right now, but if it happens (in the absence of AF, I'm still pretty sure I'm O-ing - all the signs are there ) I won't be complaining!!

    Woohoo, we could be belly buddies again!

    Hiya Ladies!
    On the topic of TTC ~ I wouldn't pass up the idea! I never thought I would say this but I am quite seriously thinking about having anothe one!
    DH says he couldn't handle it - too stressful when I was pregnant and the early days...as much as he loves Seven.....he doesn't think he would cope at all with another one.
    Some days I think I would like to wait until she is at school and discuss it then, but other days I miss being pregnant so much I want to be now! But I will wait ....gotta dtd to get pregnant anyway! LOL
    Still no AF for me, not that I am complaining!

    Happy 7 Months Veygas!!!!

    Vic ~ Congrats on the weight/measurements! Well done!!!!!

    Bec ~ 6 hrs sleep? In a row? What's that? I get about 2-3 max during the night before Seven wants another feed. Good on you!!!

    Seven is experimenting with solids atm too. We tried BLS but at the rate she was going she would NEVER get any sustenance into her! LOL
    She likes pureed fruit and vegies though, so she has some of those every now and then, but not too much yet.
    We can't sit up, but we are trying! Seven can roll over - when she wants too! She's quite content to be held!
    Weight as of 17/2/09 ~ 8.17kg. My tiny baby girl is now a porker! LOL But I love her little rolls!


    I'm updating my albums with some pics, for those of you who don't have FB!

    Hope you are all well.

    Hi to everyone I didn't mention.

    Love & Hugs
