Babies born August 2007 #7

[Campari]

Hey there!
Happy birthday Jensen, sorry I'm a bit late It sounds like you had a great day / week, with still more to come! woo hoooo! I'm still amazed that our babies are turning ONE! Still a week to go for Milla.

All good with us. I am back at work and its OK, mostly. I find it a bit frustrating that things happen so slowly there and I could finish my real work by lunchtime and then be home with my baby, but the day drags on a bit with all the useless twaddle in between... Never mind. I enjoy my lunch break, morning tea etc

Yesterday Milla fell over and put a tooth through her tongue. We're almost sure one tooth has gone all the way through, there is a massive puncture mark on her tongue and its all purple and swollen today. Its gone down overnight though, so haven't taken her to the Dr. There was a lot of blood (DH was looking after her at the time, phew). She won't eat, has trouble drinking, and babbles with a lisp. Poor thing. It looks soooo sore. We've been giving her nurofen/panadol, and she was so tired after a rotten day that she slept a lot last night. I think the mouth area heals pretty quickly when it's damaged so hopefully she'll be OK very soon.

Other news here is that the in-laws arrive from Belgium on Sunday for 5 weeks. So am crazy busy trying to clear out the spare room again, and get the house tidy for them.

Hope the Birthday Month continues to be a happy one for everyone,

xx Rhi

HI all,

Campari, good to focus on the positives Lunch tea breaks. even with the annoying twaddle, use it as your down time, you will appreciated home with Milla even more. Poor litte thing biting her tongue, I think there is heaps of blood flowwing through the tongue, hence the heaps of bleading and I agree I think it heals fast.

Happy Birthday for Milla too, I might not be back before then.

Thanks everyone, the tongue is all healed and my crazy monkey is all set for her birthday present overload tomorrow! She still has a bit of a mark where the tooth went in, like a scar already, but its not swollen anymore. She was sooooo drooly after it, and kept sticking her tongue out (even more than usual, as seen in her ticker photo).

I am still boobie feeding her, and I am so proud!! 12 months!! Woo hoooo! YAY to you too Becca, as you've had it even tougher with working full time for so long and expressing. Awesome job! And Rhianon, a big YAYYYYy to you!! And also a big yahoo to you Kim, for looking after a one year old, whilst being pregnant! Exhausting I bet. What a big year for us all!

All good here with the in-laws, but I have been working the last two days, so tomorrow the real test begins..

Byeeee xxx

Hi girls!

Its been AGES!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ALL THE AUGUST BABIES!!!!!

Congratulations to Kim on your pregancy hun! I can't belive your already 16 weeks!!!

Well things are pretty good here. Colby is growing up very quickly! Walking, climbing, falling and crashing everywhere!! Her and her sister get along famously!

Sadly I decided to end our BF relationship as Brent and I now live apart and it was too hard when he took the girls on his weekend. She still looks for it and tries to make a bee line for my nipple when she see's them!

We did'nt do too much for Colby's first birthday. Just a bbq and a cheesecake for her to demolish.

Not much else to report. I will try and get in a bit more often. I am offline at the moment cause of the move but will be online again soon!

Hope you are all well....

Take Care!

Hi everyone!
Good to hear from you Sara, and I hope you are doing OK with looking after your two girls by yourself I bet you are doing an awesome job!!

I've just figured out how to get pictures in the gallery, so put some new ones up from Milla's M-theme birthday party... she was a martian (I made her whole costume!), there was a monster, a mermaid, Madonna, Morticia... it was great fun.

Milla is going well... she is sleeping atrociously at night at the moment though, she always gets my hopes up by sleeping OK for a few nights, but lately its been BBs at 1:00ish and 4:00ish, and other wake-ups in between I had hoped she would be sleeping through by now, but not to be. She is a little monster, she just hates to sleep!

We finally got her in to a child care centre, its a new one that opens in October, so until then my PILs and DH look after Milla on the two days I work, but from OCt she will be in Ccare on Tuesdays. I am gearing up for lots of colds and clingyness, but I think she will actually enjoy being there, she loves being around lots of people.

Better go, I have to make something for Fathers Day....a little photo booky thing of all Milla and Daddy things... no $$$ presents this year!!

Byeeeee x
