hehe .. Good girl I always told my kids they were good when they did poops for daddy or really nasty ones

[aussienic]

Olivia slept through again.. Thank goodness.. I got 5 and a half hours straight sleep.. Day started at 4:30 but hey I can't complain too much

Olivia is getting into everything today.. She got the books off the shelf, went out to the shoe box lol.. and why won't she stay on the warm mat?? She keeps going off onto the wood floor and its so cold.

Hope everyone else got decents nights

also just a suggestion.. Should we mention what our bubs like or what size clothing they are in or need??

for Olivia she lves books with touchy feely things and is not into anything else and is starting to go into size 0 clothing.. but no need to get her that sort of thing only if you are stuck lol..

now my secret gift person needs to post cus I got NO idea hehe

[Liz]

nah.. still not getting sleep here. Well, not toooo bad, but no big stretches. I actually put Kayla in a cot in Tallon's room last night to test my theory of me waking her up moving around in bed. Nope.. still woke up, so i just brought her back to the cot next to me hehe. I was actually feeling really sad not having her next to me, which isn't like me at all! LOL

But the kids' room looks quite good with both the bed & cot in there, and Tallon was excited that Kayla was sharing his room. I have a feeling Kayla might be waking up cold actually, but I'm not really sure how to make her warmer.. she's still wrapped, and then put under both a blanket & light cot quilt. I dunno... just have to resign myself to having another non-sleeper I think hehe. Anyway, I'll put her in the cot today to play & for a day sleep.. she was looking around her a bit worried when I put her in there last night, so I'll try and get her used to it.

Well, guess i should get moving and do something slightly productive today. lol. cya!

Hi all,

I'm still here, just a bit busy and now I have a terrible head cold. I spent the weekend vegging as much as possible and trying not to talk much as my throat and ears are really sore :-(

I like the 1st Dec party idea! I have my little secret person ;-)

Grrr just when I start to type I hear grizzling from bubs room. Better go...

[Harri]

[Lolli]

Wow everyone is in today! Hi all
Lauren- Go Ash!! Got my person too
Nic- Brilliant idea... Ty loves anything with music. And he loves books. And he's a size 0. I'm so excited, I can't wait to buy. Imlove giving pressies.
Big hi to Haroula, Alicia and Tinsel... hope I haven't forgotten anyone...

[aussienic]

I'm cold .. I had to turn the heater back on

Olivia has been asleep for an hour and a half.. She will wake soon though

Haroula and Alicia hi and don't stress about keeping up We will still talk to you :P

lauren: WTG Asher!! I hope Olivia starts the proper crawling soon.. Her tummy must get so cold when she drags it on the ground lol

[Liz]

hehe - Kayla still humps along like a caterpillar, hasn't got her knees working separately yet. But she's pretty fast!

Alicia - hope you feel better soon. It's horrible feeling sick.

[Harri]

LoriRae - hi to you too! I'm excited to buy too! this is fun!

Nic - yep! fantastic idea... Chrissie is in a 0 too.. and loves things with tags on them!

Liz - well that's better than nothing and way too cute!! Am hoping Chrissie will do "anything" to move right now..! I'm over the screaming/tearing/nose running/hair pulling fit she has every time i get up to move around and she can't come too!!

[Harri]

OMG for the first time since Chrissie was a baby, she has been asleep for 3hrs and 15min!!! her normal afternoon sleep is 1.5-2hrs!....

[Trish]

Hi girls, long time no see

OMG at all these babies crawling. Thankfully Abbey isn't yet. She does get onto all 4's though, and she still gets right around the room by just rolling everywhere. Or in her walker she raids the drawers.. Time to think about drawer locks again I think.

I'm not even going to try to catch up, sorry about that. Know that I have been reading though and keeping up with everyone. Life should be a little quieter for me now. 1 client down and 3 more due all in Oct !! Plus a wedding. How in hell did I do that. Aggghhhhh.

Abbey is in the most feral mood today. She has whinged and screamed since she woke this morn. Guess it doesn't help that I am so overtired and grumpy either. Soooo wanted a nap but it wasn't to be (thanks Tehya).

Hope all bubbies are doing well and being kind to their mummy's

[Buzzie]

Hey good to see everyone on today..

Haroula yay on the sleep! Ash had a massive sleep on friday, normally only get 30mins out of him, but was sleeping for 2 1/2hours and of course i went to check on him and the door squeaked and he was awake in a instant!! dum mummy move!!

Trish - thats good u get to see all those bubbas being born tho.. how special. I STILL miss me being in hospital with a new born, it was just such an exciting time.. weird i cant get over it tho...

Well Ash has been fighting a sleep all day and is finally down so i better go do something more constructive i guess.. Have a good night everyone..

[aussienic]

hehe - Kayla still humps along like a caterpillar, hasn't got her knees working separately yet. But she's pretty fast!

hehe I know the look too..


Alicia: hope you are feeling better today

Trish: Hi

Haroula: wow on that sleep.. I hope you enjoyed that peaceful time..

Olivia slept through again.. 7:30 till 4. Not really liking the 4am starts to the day but oh well.. She naps again at 5:30 but the boys are up by then so no naps for me Simon is on days off now so I will go back to sleep with her this week..

Getting excited cus its Jacobs birthday on Friday I can't believe he will be 3.. 3 seems so grown up to me...

oh and off to upload a gorgeous pic.. Jacob just adores Olivia.. It is a melt your heart pic hehe

[Lolli]

Hi all,
I am so very proud, Ty learnt to wave last night Remains to be seen whether he will remember to do it today (hasn't done it yet) but still very exciting.... No 'actual' crawling here yet, just rolling and arm shuffling all over the room. He gets up on his hands and knees and rocks but that's about it...

Nic and Trish- Seriously, you two are superwoman I don't know how you do it. Hats off.

We've been having some top sleep here... three naps a day, one of them for an hour and a half and Ty is putting himself to sleep instead of mum patting him off. I don't know what to do with myself with all this free time. Although we are still getting a lot of night wake ups, his teeth seem to bother him every morning at about 4am, they get all hot and swollen. Poor little darling.

[aussienic]

Lori: Honestly when I just had one I had no idea how people with more kids did it either but you do learn to cope. when they are your own kids its easy plus don't forget when olivia is grumpy and wants attention I have 3 very willing helpers So in some ways I do have it a bit easier especially with having Ethan. If she just wants a cuddle and I am busy cooking dinner he is able to pick her up and cuddle her for me

I have my hand wrapped up at the moment cus i was sick of tthe aches and carry one and it really works.. Definetly getting a wrist splint this week as the symptoms go away . Makes it difficult to type as i can't really bend my hand lol.. but its better then aches and pins and needles..

spose i better get out of my jammies at some stage. Livi is down for a nap so i should get the lounge Re Livi divvy proofed

[Buzzie]

Lori - yay on the waving hope he does it again for u.

Had Ashs 8month check - little early.. his weight and head growth finally is slowing down but has shot up, weigth is 10.7kg head 48.5cm and length 74.5cm! no wonder hes already in size one, nothings long enough...

have a goodnight everyone

Ok Girls! I have been away on holidays so have been unable to keep up with everyone but from what I have read it seems like most are doing well.

Growing too fast though with all this crawling or nearly crawling action.

I was just reading somewhere on antoher site about babies giving up their bottles at 1? I was just interested to hear at what age those with older children gave up their bottles and what did they move to? Sippy cups? ANd which ones worked for your bubs.
