Trish – those pics are absolutely gorgeous, you sure do have one beautiful bubba, she’s so big!! I’ll have to get on to uploading some pics of Jake, been pretty slack!

Jus – hope you had a better night’s sleep last night, Jake’s been the same way with his day sleeps, drives you nuts hey!!

Lauren – which walker did you get for Ash? We’re looking at getting one for Jake too.

Nic – Jake is a stubborn little boy too, he won’t do anything that he doesn’t want to do lol. But yeah, hopefully it will be a positive when they’re older, I can be quite stubborn at times too so I know where he gets it from  So glad to hear that Olivia is fine and I’m sure Isaac will be too, have my fingers crossed that all comes back ok.

Bekz – so sorry to hear that you’re not doing so well. Just know we are all here for you if you need to vent or even just have an adult conversation  Congrats on the new house, that’s great!! And way to go on Loren crawling, Jake’s not up to that stage yet but is very vocal!

Lori – that is fantastic news on your bf for 6 months. I too had a bad start to bf’ing, although not as bad as yours but I sure can relate to the crying every time they latched on for the first week atleast and I used nipple shields for a few days as well, it really is worth it though isn’t it? Now I don’t want to give it up, and neither does he! Jake is the same way at night if he wakes up, which thankfully isn’t that often, the only way I can get him back to sleep is to feed him. You know what’s best for him so just keep doing what you think is right!

Well we had some exciting news yesterday, we are now land owners!! We put an offer in on a block of land a couple of weeks ago which was accepted, but there was an old building on it which needed to be approved for demolition as part of the contract… well it was approved yesterday as well as our finance so now we just sit back and wait for settlement day on 4th July. We’re so excited and looking to start building our house around xmas time!!

Catchya all soon, sorry if I missed anyone!!

adkins - i just got a babyco one - but it was from ebay. I buy everything from ebay. and it was only $20.
It is a space ship one - i thought it was a car but yeh.. lol its really good, the toy tray comes off to a plain tray and it has lots of heigh adjustments as he grows for his legs. And of course a big soft back support. but its great, better than being stuck on the floor all the time.. hehe

Janine, she really isn't that big hun. Only 6.5 kgs and she's 6 months old. She's 67cm though. Can't wait to see some pics of Jake. Bet he's a spunk

Congratulations on your block of land. How exciting to be building a brand new home. I wish I got to build mine new. There are so many things I want different.

LoriRae, I agree, they try to sugar coat it calling it comfort settling. It is what it is, no matter how you paint it.

6 months is an awesome effort especially after a troubled start. For me, someone who has had her issues feeding babies over the years too, I was suprised with the troubles Abbey and I had in the early weeks, But her's was more from illness then anything else. Tehya was fed until 26 months and I hope to atleast get that far with Abbey.

Bek,

huni. Sounds like Loren is going along fantastically. Congratulations on selling and re buying a house too. Well done you lucky girl

I hope both you and Loren get better really soon hun.

Nic, great to hear that Olivia's appt went well for you and her. As for Issac, well I hope that the MRI is all clear and at the very least it's one worry off your mind. Have fun either way, with the camping or the solids.

Abbey is in bed asleep for once. Hasn't been there long but I have plans for her to sleep for 3 hours. PMSL, don't like my chances though.

Have a great day girls and thanks for looking at Abbey's pics and the comments.

trish - good luck with getting Abbey to sleep that long, the most Sofia ever gets to in a fay nap is 1.5hrs, thanks to a big sister that wants to play or change her nappy or feed her.

gosh times flies - how did Sofia get to 7 months?

**aussienic** · May 30th, 2008, 03:23 PM

Meant to mention.. Olivia is 7.5kg and 66cm long

Holy!! Happy 7 months Sofia!!

I have bought Olivia a cute pink and purple bowl and spoon

and some farex.. Will start tomorrow morning. We bought her one of those A Frame play gyms today and she has been laying under it for the last half hour. kicking and squealing at it.. Even picking it up and moving it around..

now she is ready for a sleep so must go..

OK so I didn't get 3 hours out of Abbey. But I did get nearly 2. That's pretty good for her.

My Ergo finally came today and after Abbey woke up and had her bum change and feed I put her in it. I went and hung the washing out and she was fine. Came back inside and sat down and Abbey snuggled up and went back to sleep for about 90 mintues

Of course the only things I got done today was the washing and the dishes. Ooops. I was enjoying the chance to sit on the computer un interupted for once.

Happy 7 Months to Sofia. OMG these babies are growing up wayyyyyy too fast.

Nic, I got Abbey a new bowl and spoon set yesterday. It's from the Nuby range, so very cute. The bowl looks like a space ship, it's microwavable and has a lid too, so great to take out with me.

Good luck with the solids hun. I'm sure Olivia will love them
