geez!! cant believe the last time i visited was in may!!!! :P goes to show how much time our bubs take up eh?
sehra - sorry to hear abt ur loss. hope ur mum's getting better AND congrats on your little daily winner. checked her out n she is cute!!! can we still submit photos in?
campari - looks like milla n arianna is almost the same. arianna goes to bed about 7.30 - 8pm but i normally feed her before n so she goes a little easier. but then to wake up like clockwork at 11pm and 3am. so yea, i'm bf to get her back to bed. i have tried custard with arianna but i dont think its a problem for her. have to figure out whats bugging her too.
kim - congrats!!!! dh has been talking abt #2 a lot lately but i'm not too sure abt it yet. part of me wants to have #2 coz i miss how small they were, you know newborns.....but another part of me wants to just enjoy having this one little person to shower all my love on, u know? it's a tug of war at the moment but we are not planning anything, come what may....my AF is already here so it's slightly easier to estimate my fertile period. we using the billing's method so if i don't check properly, i could have in 'trouble'!! lol :P
updates with us : arianna has 3 teeth on the top, the left one is still struggling to come out. we've got 2 bottom teeth clearly and the 2 outer one slowly coming through and this was what i thought was causing her not to sleep thru the night. she used to go to bed at about 7pm n sleep right through to 7am the next day!!! but now or at least the past week or so, it's bedtime by 7.30pm, up at 11pm - feed, 1am - feed, 3am-feed, 6am-feed, 9am-feed then brekkie. i feel like i'm going thru the newborn phase again!! this 1am thing started 2 nights ago....in fact, the first time that happened, we brought into our bed n just let her selt entertain, she was cacking, 'jumping', laughing all by herself while we tried to get some shut eye. the moment her batteries ran out n i tucked her in, she cried! little cheeky....it was far worst in the begining when she wont even sleep in her cot. she HAD to sleep in our bed so i thought if was the pain n she was looking for comfort but i didnt want her to get too used to sleeping our bed so i took dh pillow case n put it on her pillow n it worked....
no walking or standing at the moment, just major crawling all over the place and picking up the most minute stuff off the floor as she goes along. sitting up is not a problem anymore so that's good. food wise she's been having a variety of stuff but maybe not as many as one would expect. i try to make a variety so she doesnt get sick of it. she is used to homecook food n not a fa of the bottle food although those i keep for when we are out. i buy more of the fruity jars than the savoury kind - stuff u can give for dessert like custard n apple n berry ripple.
i thought i was the only one still getting up at odd hours n bf the bub! i am obviously not alone.... lol glad to share the pain ladies.gtg now....have to wash the dishes b4 bed...uuggh! and yes, it is passed midnite - crazy!

. I am so tired! I just want it to be Saturday. We are having a bbq with 24 adults and 14 kids. I have organised a fairy to entertain the kids with ballooning, face painting, magic, games. I have bought these HUGE alphabet balloons which are like 1m in height each and will spell her name E-L-A. These will be floating in the air attached to some weights. i have balloon centrepieces for each of the tables. A Happy birthday walkabout balloon. It is amazing this balloon it moves with the air flow like it is walking. Streamers to pretty up the house. Loot bags and helium balloons for the kids. Her birthday cake is in the shape of a book. One page will have her Mother and baby competition frog photo and on the other side a poem in Turkish. It is white mudcake. I am so excited yet i still have a lot to organise til then. i just pray that the day runs nice and smoothly
