Oh No Cass, hope you all get better soon.
Hi Bec, hope you get an easy day today!
Is it your birthday today Alex? Happy birthday! & have a great scan too!!

Hi everyone else
Stress head mum here. Ned's slow feeding atm and of course it freaks me out every time (ok I know i know I read that book and wasn't going to stress anymore ). Worried about # wet nappies 'cos he hasn't been peeing much, but I did just move him up a nappy size to Crawlers (even though he's not quite 6kg) 'cos that's what I have boxes of. Guess they wouldn't be as full as the smaller ones when wet hey?
Gotta get my skin cancer cut out this arvo too And gotta pick up my new glasses. Had a severe reaction to my contact lenses and the optomotrist was even freaking out!
& Good Luck at the Scan today, cant wai tto hear ALL about it!!!!
OOOh, I hope everything goes well today Soph, sounds pretty awful about your lenses I cannot wtach medical programs regarding eye surgery, it makes my eyes hurt!
Storm, I'm sure Ellie will be fine & her size will be lovely...
Jo, Maddy loves her basketball, but it does take up a lot of time with only 1 , training twice a week & a game on weekends that are spread out a bit!
Bec, Hi how's everything going? Hope you got a nice sleep
Cass, You poor bigger I havent had gastro here (I dont want it either!) Hope your feeling better soon..
Brooke... Hello how are you doing???
Rae & Fletch (terrible twins) Hope your both managing to keep food down & grow nice healthy babies!! !
As for me still just doing what I can... I am not working the rest of the week after today... Taking Il's out & about... hmm they are starting to annoy me... I am so mean i know! I just cant hold my bubba without having her torn outta my arms kicking & screaming now & they just walk off with her & I am abit over it all being nice & smiling!
Hi girls - sooooooooo sorry i've been so slack...just don't make it onto BB as much these days. Been feeling pretty good though - think i'm over the worst Looks like i'm having another PINK one too - so we're THRILLED TO BITS!!!!!!!!!
Storm - your belly looks gorgeous!!!!!!!
Soph - good luck today with getting that nasty skin cancer cut out.
Bec and Alex - how are you gals feeling? Oh and Alex - have a fab day!!!!!!!!!
Jo - wow - i envy your energy...your kids must LOVE all the stuff you do with them - they are very lucky and loved!
Cass - hope you guys get better soon - sending heaps of get well vibes
Trace - how are you all going hun? Sounds like the IL's are tiring you all out! Hope you can enjoy the rest of the week.
Brooke - hope your family is doing ok now - you've had a rough trot lately.
Louise - hope you and Maria are doing well too.
Well - Ella and i are off to swimming lessons with Fletch and Zane this arvo - and then to aquanatal (just us mummies) - so i'm looking forward to that. It's such a beautiful day here today too! Oh and i've nearly finished all my Christmas shopping (only got about 2-3 gifts to go) - so i'm very relieved about that. And when my mum was up during the week she even wrapped them all for me - God love her!!!!
Have a great day ladies and bubs - will pop back in later on!
Yay for your new glasses Soph. Hope all goes well with the skin cancer being removed. Is it getting done by laser?
Dont stress about Ned. I am sure the bigger size nappies makes a difference with volume they hold, same as changing brands. But wee amounts do vary, look at Zac last week he was a soaker, but this week he hasn;t been .
Aww Trace you're not being mean! I'd be grumpy too after a while, you've done well!!
Hi Rae, ya stranger! Enjoy swimming! Oah at finishing off your chrissy shopping. I haven't started yet! & thanks for lying & saying my belly look gorgeous too, Luv ya for that
Storm I love your belly!!!!!! It really does look gorgeous!!!!!! Hope your precious Amy is having a lovely day today..its such a milestone isnt it the last birthday before being a teenager....arghhh!!! LOL Sorry dont mean to freak you out about your little darlings size! She will be absolutely perfect! Sammy was just such a shock..i was always measuring big and he was born 2 weeks early at 9 4 lol...compared to my next biggie at 8 lbs exactly 2 weeks over!
Rae ...you are still alive!!! Good to hear the ms is easing up a bit...and oh a little sister??? Thats so great they could tell so early!!! How exciting for you!!! Have fun at swimming lessons and preggie lessons..it sounds lovely.
Trace you are allowed to get annoyed. My max time of smiling is about a week with guests so you are doing really well..actually depends who it is...if its my mil usually only a day or two lol. Im glad Maddy likes basketball. Jess did it all last season and loved it so Im thinking the Em and liv will enjoy it too...i like them participating in team sports and now that hockey is finished its good to do a summer one!
Ow Soph thinking of you this arvo...how are they going to be doing it? And wow at the reaction you poor thing!!! That sounds yuck..least you get to pick out some nice glasses. I was having a looksie when we were picking out Emmy's new glasses. I half wished I had to wear them again...they all look so funky and sophisticated!!! It stands to reason too that little Ned's nappies arent going to be as noticeably wet with the bigger size nappies and with him having to go up a size is great evidence in itself that hes growing just fine!!! Dont stress Soph.
Well we are about to head off for a nice walk soon..its a gorgeous windy day. Sammy is intently eating and watching playschool at the moment....oh and my baby's new word is 'thank you'!!! It sounds so sweet....think hes getting tired of us asking him to say it all the time now though lol.
Awwww thanks guys. It just doesn't look so good from this angle.
Enjoy your walk Jo, I'm at home baking cakes again I made so many last week for the school fair & I also made Amy a butterfly for her party & now I'm making one for us tonight.I'm so sick of baking cakes!!!!!!!
Wow TRace, you're nearly done chrissy shopping too, I can't bear the thought this year, too much walking around!
All you organized people!!!! I havent even started my Chrissy shopping!!!! This is the first year though that we have capped it at $50 for adults and $30 for kids (not our immediate family) so its not quite as daunting as it has been other years. I cant wait to get started now that livvy's birthday is out of the way. Last years Christmas wasnt that crash hot..the kids all had chickenpox poor darlings so this year will be extra special making up for it!!!!!!!
Good for you Storm...lol...i hear ya though..you are doing so well baking for the fair as well...its my turn for that this friday lol.
Back from our walk..little boy was crashing on the way home and is now in bed...poor tired baby.
Rae hope your swimming was fun !!! how nice that you and Fletch are going together!
Fletch...by any chance do you print Christmas cards ?. I was thinking of doing a family chrissy card with a pic on the front and then just a merry chrissy blurb inside. Thought I would check with you before I speak to anyone else :-)
Soph I hope this afternoon went well...let us know.
Trace dont feel bad about the ILs , it is so hard to spend day in and day out with ANYONE no matter how much you love them ...DH, DS and DD's not included of course!.
Well working day is almost over....thank goodness as I have a headache as usual. Everytime I work I have a headache...so pretty much Tue-Fri I have a headache. Plus I am sooooo tired as poor DH cant do anything due to his wrist so I am totally on duty 24hours with all bubba and house hold duties ....tireddddddddddddddd
Awww Cass you poor busy Mumma....blast your headache too..thats not what you need. Bet you are hanging out for the weekend. How long before your Dh's hand is back to normal?
I have done something really cool today and booked a britz campervan to travel in for a week in January. Cant wait to tell the kids all about it and show them the pics. Sammy is eating his noodles now lol...think they must be his favourite food in the world lol
