Babies born December 2007 #17

Hi Everyone,

We are almost in our house. There is only 2 rooms to that need to be painted and then the floors have to be cleaned. Boy it is hard getting anything done with Loren. She is definately a baby that does not like to be left to self occupy. I have worked out a system though. I have set up a play pen, a walker, the high chair and a rocker and I shuffle her from one activity to the next. In between I get some moving jobs done.

Loren is full crawling now. She is trying to pull herself up on furniture but unfortunately she has fallen twice, one fall has resulted in a little bruise on her head. I felt like such a bad mummy. She has 2 teeth too. This may explain why she was waking every hour during the night screaming and she wanted mummy all the time. Oh and she is doing teething poos...about 6 per day.

She is also clapping!!! Very cute.

Nic - I have been having heaps of pms and low libido problems lately. I had the same issue afer I had Sara. I have started taking Vitex and vitamin B to help sort my cycles out. I am hoping this helps. It better or else I might end up single!!!!!

Lauren - WTG Ash up on all 4's.

Lori: check in girly!!!

Bek: *faint* crawling omg... but how cute lol...

Lauren: Woo to Ash.. Slow down babies!!

Well I finally worked out how to get Olivia to eat.. Little Miss fuss pot wishes to feed herself. Everytime I tak the spoon to her mouth she clamps shut and wiggles so I can't even get it near her. I handed her the spoon and she just puts it right in her mouth. Then i say pass the spoon to mummy and she does and then I show her the spoon with more food and she gets all excited.. She actually ate really well tonight.. She had a spoonful of veges and then about a tablespoon of banana

I am going to try 2 meals tmorrow so breaky and then dinner..

Nic - Loren does the whole clamp the mouth shut and shake the head thing. I now give her a spoon with food on it and she sucks it. Meanwhile I also have a spoon and sneak in a few spoons when she opens her mouth.

I can't even do that.. She is to smart for me She sees the spoon coming and clamps shut.. thats what i tried the other day..

AGGGG God I'm an idiot. I just did a full post and lost the bloody thing.

Ok, I am saying HI to all.

Saying OMG to those that are testing !!

And WOOHOO to those bubs that are crawling or on their way !!

Thankfully it's not my baby.

BBL to post properly

The things we do to get a spoonful of food into bubs mouth hey!!!!

Miss Loren decided that 5am was a great time to wake up. Then Sara was yelling out and crying from her bed. So I put Sara in bed with DH and tried to resettle Loren but she wanted to party. So we got up. At least I have steamed some apple for morning tea for her and got a load of washing on and did some internet banking all before 6.30am.

Loren is on the floor atm and she is crawling in her sleeping bag...woops she just spewed everywhere....

I can't wait to move out from my IL's place. Generally they are great but my FIL is constantly on my back about the kids. Every time I get the lower fat milk from the fridge to give to Sara he has to comment about it not being good enough for her. Then he has to make mention about Loren's cold hands or Sara may taken off her shoes and socks and her feet must be cold .Bl**dy Nora!! sorry for the whinge.

Have a good day everyone

My thoughts exactly. Not sure if I could cope with a crawling baby right now

I hated living with my Il's thankfully we didn't have any children when we did. heck we rushed into buying this house just to get out (stll love my smal house though its home) Kids hands are always cold.. and as for shoes mine only wear them when we go out lol.. your FIL would have a field day with me heheheh

I did not like Olivia last night.. I left her to cry for 10 minutes as I wanted to throttle her.. She woke at 9:50 which is fine but it was 12:30 before she finally went back to sleep. I was exhausted, my head was swaying.. Thankfully she slept till 7:30 this morning so I still got some great sleep.. but last night GGRRR and of course this mrning she is being just beautiful lol..

ps Isaac seems ok this morning.. no dizzies yet

Bek - Tallon's hands and feet are always freezing. He just does not keep socks or his uggboots on for long. He actually followed me out to the clothesline the other day without shoes on (he's normally pretty good when going outside to put his gumboots or something on) and he complained of sore feet LOL. They must have been so cold they were aching. i know the feeling coz i threw on my summer sandals one night to go down to mums to collect her mail and bring her bin in (she's on holidays atm) and my feet ached for about an hour afterwards.

Kayla is sooo on the verge of crawling, but she's just not getting there. I seem to remember saying this about Tallon too LOL. Perhaps I just need to find the right incentive for her. Tallon's was a laptop on the floor - he crawled towards that. I wonder what little missy would go for.

Well, sleep was a little better last night. I think I got a 4hr stretch in there somewhere. I gave her one solids meal yesterday afternoon. I'm still not sure it's the solids.. i think it's probably more the age than anything.

OK.. must go.. Tallon wants me to read a book.. and I'm starving. Talk later!
