Oh, how beautiful, girls! Its so great to know they feel the same way about you, isn't it ?
Sorry Chantal I'd forgotten about Maya going to the chiro... What do they do? (Sorry - you have probably told me already! I'm a deadhead, I'm afraid.)
Yes Linz, I'm going to be there tonight! Woohoo! We'll be running late, tho. DH won't get home from work til 6:30 at the earliest, and I have my cousin on standby for babysitting, but I'll just have to play it by ear.
Great that Laila went down a bit earlier for you
Amy - thats alright They just have a feel of the spine and stuff and if they need an adjustment or not. The adjustments hurt a little bit, but its over in a second. Maya has her hips checked as well as she had the hip dysplasia.
Shezabelle - haha, the sloppy kisses!! Why do they have to have their mouth wide open??!! I always kiss her and show her kisses with a pucker, but she comes in all mouth and even tries to do the indian sound!! Wet, wet, wet!!
Good to her the sleeping is improving, I know how great it feels. You don't realise how nice it is to have that time in the evening.
I left Charly at Granma's for 2 hours, apparently see saw the neighbour and though it was mum, cried when she couldn't go to her. So happy to see me, I couldn't even go to the bathroom.
Those sloppy kiss are great aren't they, Charly is starting to do the indian noise with her own hand the last couple of days so funny as she leaves her hand in a fist.
Cute new piccie of Charly!
Chantal, my mum goes to a chiro regularly and she says he uses a 'clicky' tool up and down the spine. Is this what Maya's chiro uses too?
LOL, Linz, I'm sure you'll manage to get ready in an hour My stress is that I can't fit into most of my pre-baby clothes! I'm hoping I'll find something... I think I need a corset!
Hey girls I hope everyone had a good night!
Went to the movies last night and left Noah with the IK's for the first time.
Apparently he cried for the last hour after he'd been asleep and FIL's voice woke him up.
Poor thing was upset when we got there (but nowhere near as hysterical as when SO take him!)
He slept pretty well too.
Got him into bed at 9.30ish and he slept to 3.15. Had some boob and back down at 4.
Too bad I couldn't follow suit! Bloody magpies at 4am! What the hell? It was dark, go to sleep birds!
Then Noah woke again at 5 and I relented and brought him into bed with us (It's so damn easy!). But that's the longest he's slept in his cot for ages so Yay!

Chon - yes she uses the back of hand is now starting to open her fist.
Well done Noah on the good sleep.
Charly is screaming all day long happy screams and has a new sound 'b" kind of sounds like bub some times. When to the drive in last night and she was squelling/screaming to get everyones attention, lucky she fell asleep just before the movie started.
Thinking about going to the movies during the week and leaving Charly at Granma's will mean it's a little long then I'm use to leaving her. But guess I have to do it sometime. If I can time it right I will be able to BF her before I leave and she wont need a BF till I come back.
Awww that's a good idea, hadn't thought about going to the drive-in with Noah too.
Well done on the "b" sound Charly!
Noah's all about the "w" and "uh" lol sounds like he's saying "wow" and "uh oh" all the time.
He's also started making a clicking sound with his tongue which is cute. If I click my tongue at him, he'll click back. Also making a gross spit sucking sound but I chose to focus on the other one lol! I think both are just from playing with his teeth.
Aha. That clicky thing... I'm intrigued - I should take Natty one day, just to check it out at least.
That cognitive therapy sounds interesting, Linz... I'd be fascinated to see how they work that stuff out!
Oh, what a lovely sleep you had, Lauren! WTG Noah!
Cute about the new sounds, girls. Natalie is big on the raspberry-blowing atm. Also, she does a fake cough/laugh that is just so gorgeous...
hi girls. not having the best night. Issy os here on my lap trying to give DH some last minute sleep B4 he has to get up for work. Issy has been in bed with us since 0100 and awake since 0400!! considering i only went to bed at 1 i'm pretty knackered!!
It's cool all the sounds threy make isn't it. Issy's a real talker!!
Oh no, Shez! You poor thing! I hope Issy has a better night tonight.
How did the osteo appt go, Lauren?
Natalie did marvellously well last night - only one wake-up, which is the best night we've had since she was three months old! she does it again tonight...
Oh Shez!! You poor thing. Hope you caught up with sleep, nothing more important as it keeps us Mums sane
Good to hear others got their sleep. Wow to laila, asleep already
My DP has taken Maya to the inlaws as he has to pick up something from there so I have an hour to make tea by myself (haven't been able to make it yet as I have the work phone tonight). I have 3 permanent shifts for the AH phone so it brings in some money that we can depend on now, feels good. Bit of a juggling act though, but its better than going into an office 3 days per week, I save with childcare etc.
I'm thinking of taking Maya to a 'bubs music session' or 'kindermusic' that are held in the area, just so she can meet more bubs and have some fun with music and singing. Be some fun for me too as I love to see her get all excited and laugh when we dance and stuff to music. So cute! We have been watching Sesame Street and Play School in the mornings and whenever a song comes on I always try and go over to her and sing a long. I'm a bit rusty on the songs though...
LOL, great to meet you too, Linz. So sorry you're sick Hope you feel better soon. Ooooh, it'll be like the early days again having to get up every 4 hours in the night But worth a go - good on you! Are the pills motillium? That'll hopefully help you go straight to sleep in between pumps!
That work phone sounds ideal, Chantal. Well, I know it means late nights for you, but you're right - you save heaps on childcare! I'd love to do some work from home, but am sadly unskilled
Oo, your 'kindermusik' sounds like 'baby bounce' that they run at the library near here. We've been a couple of times, we sit around and sing nursery rhymes for half an hour, bouncing the babies and playing instruments. It is GREAT fun! Hope you and Maya enjoy it.
So sorry you're sick Linz! Hope you feel better soon!
The osteo went REALLY well. Noah was SUCH a good boy! Had a strange man poking and prodding at him for 30 mins and just sat there as good as gold!
The osteo reckons his back's a bit twisted and that's why he hates laying on his back. He's fine when he sits up because he can sit and twist around. He also said that could be why his wind/colic is worse than when he was 3 months old. I really hope it helps coz it's horrible him being so hysterical. It's different from his "i'm being stubborn" cry (which he does when I put him on his belly), it's a kind of "painful" cry.
The osteo said he should only need a few visits so fingers crossed!
?

she does it again tonight...
