Thanks girls.
OMG! This place is going to be full of new babies soon, then!
Poor Noah with his tooth.
Natalie is really clingy atm too... Is it an age thing? Is everyone else independent, or are they big ol sooky wingy pants' too? LOL, its a strange thing... Yes, sure, its lovely that she wants cuddles, but she doesn't winge for anyone else, KWIM? She is fine when I'm not there, but when I am, I have to be holding her Is anyone else the same?
ETA: Does anyone here do their grocery shopping online? How do you do yours - does bubs behave ok?
I do the groceries when DH is home & leave him the kids, or he , Zac & Dylan will go, it's way too hard for me, I still have 2 in a pram & Zaccie just climbs out of the trolley when it gets too full.
Maya is fine when we go shopping, I just make sure it is after a feed and I take water and a couple of rusks with me, oh and the dummy of course! Must be prepared for anything.
Wowee, Charly is quite the daring one!
Jo, that's my preference too - leaving Natty with DH while I go and shop. But lately he just hasn't been home much
Yeah, the last couple of days Natalie has fallen in love with cruskits, so I'm taking a leaf from yours Chantal, and taking them with me next time I have to shop
We had a bad shopping experience a couple of weeks ago with Nat in the trolley - she chucked the biggest wobbly, and I ended up feeding her a jar from the shelf (paid for it later of course, LOL ) to keep her occupied. Neither of us had a good time. I told SIL and she recommended shopping online - she always does hers that way. But when I gave it a go yesterday I realised that everything was more expensive! Not by much, maybe 20-70 cents per item. But gees, when you're doing a fortnight's worth of shopping that adds up! I ended up putting Natty in the BBjorn and going in the flesh anyway. We did fine this time.
Oh no Amy! Just know your not the only one
I've grabbed some rusks and had to open them to keep Maya happy when she dropped the two that I had bought along. She couldnt understand why I wouldnt give it to her, there is no way I was given her something that had touched the trolley, this influenza A is terrifying me. My boss at work, her daughter has the Influenza A, she is 6 yrs old. Poor thing is throwing up everywhere.
We are off to get a Fathers Day present today, thought I would get the Darrel Lea Dad's Bag, can't think of anything else and he loves to nibble on stuff.....
PMSL Chon, we don't need to hear about your private life
Oh, poor little girl with that nasty flu.
I've got DH something for fathers' day - he's so easy. (You can take that how you want to as well. LOL!)
But I'm really stuck for ideas for my own dad. Always am. He's a difficult one to buy for
I always get my Dad Darrel Lea or Charlesworth Nuts stuff. Only because Mum doesnt let him have this sort of stuff normally, so its a treat for him and he loves licorice.
Another idea is a gift voucher at a hardware store, if hes the handy type or maybe a movie voucher if he likes a good movie now and then. Thats also a treat for your Mum if they don't get out much. I couldnt do that option as my Dad just won a gold voucher that lasts a whole year, lucky duck! might have to borrow that sometime.......
Hi everyone, Charly is usually very good shopping, because she loves watching people and trying to get there attention. Usually have lots of screams for 'look at me, look at me everyone', a couple of weeks ago I when shopping didn't buy much as I was to busy making Charly laugh in the trolley.... although if she is hungry we have a tough time getting the shopping done usually take toys to entertain her, never though about the cruskits which I always have handy.
Fathers day was planning on getting a shirt and using a transfer to put Charly's picture with a 'Daddy's Girl' just haven't had the time. One of the ladies in mothers group suggested a T shirt for Charly with a slogan on it about Daddy from Cotton On so will go there today if I get a change and hope they have some left. When I asked DH he is not expecting anything.
