Lauren: Personally I don't think they need meat just yet.. It is a personal choice if you start or not :)
Tonight I was eating Roast Lamb and Olivia was looking at it longingly so I took a teeny tiny bit off and gave her some.. She wasn't overly fussed..
I am stuffed.. I rode to school this morning.. 9 degress BRR.. It was colder then I though hehe.. I left Olivia home with poor broken Simon :lol: She went to sleep before I got home so I went to a friends for coffee and got home at 11 .. 3 hours Olivia free. *faint* Then I rode to school again this afternoon.. Olivia stayed home again.. then I went to Footy with Ethan.. Once again Olivia stayed home.. All up today we were separated for 5 hours and a bit.. I was feeling so guilty by then end of it but we survived and Daddy had such much needed Olivia time..
I have fallen asleep about 4 times since 6 O'clock so I don't think it will be a late night for me

Lauren: LOVE the new sig picture :)
and you shush at how little time is left till thier birthdays

Hello all
Sorry I haven't been posting much having a really hard time here with Olivia not wanting to go to sleep at night time and we are having screaming matches galore... I swear my patience level has reached its limit serveral times now and I have just had to walk away from her.. :(
Feeling really down about it all and with Tony away for 2 weeks at a time...its so darn hard...
-
:hug: :hug: :hug: teena!!
-
aww Teena :hug: Dont feel bad for walking away.. If the health nurses all recomened it then it cant be that bad, i know its hard to hear them cry, but your sanity is important too!
Nic - I didnt realise it was a count down ticker not a count up..lol I actually pinched the site from ur ticker.. the pic is so much bigger! :D
Just updated the pic, Ash had lunch yesterday and wacked my hand with the spoon in it and it went straight on his forehead.. was sooo funny!
heres the pic of yesterdays spinach - LOL https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums...php?photo=8673

Aww Teena :hug: I know how you feel, Ty has started with his 4am screaming fits again *sigh* at least I have dh around to help (not that he is really much help). I think it was his teeth this morning- he was dribbling everywhere and his gums were all hot and swollen.
Lauren- Very cute pic there :) I'll have to update my ticker, my pic is about 4 months old by now!
Nic- Five and a half hours baby free, you lucky woman. Dh told me the other day he would take Ty out for two hours so I could have the house to myself, then changed his mind just as they were about to leave. I seriously burst into tears, I was looking forward to it that much... Felt so silly about it afterwards, but he can't dangle that in front of me then snatch it away like that!!

Hi Ladies,
I won't do personals becasue I am so damn tired.
Hugs to the mumies with bubs that are chucking tanties.
Lori - Hope you slapped your DH
Miss Loren has taken to throwing tanties everytime I put her to bed or change her nappy....My lordy..I hope she is not like this when she is 2!!!! Oh yeah she is also practicing vocalising and squealing all day...oh my head
At least she is eating atm...I can't fill her up. Today she had 3 meals and 2 had double serves.
Night night

I'm with you Bek.. too tired for personals..
sick of night waking.. please reassure me it does indeed stop... I know it does but is anyone elses baby on here sleeping through yet?? please tell me that they are
-
ok so somehow Olivia must have read my last post.. She slept through.. Jacob who has slept through for the past 3 weeks didn't :rolleye: *sigh* but I Only recovered him and went back to bed but still...
Can somene please tell my kids if it is dark outside it is to early to be up???? 3 out of the 4 are awake... Isaac is still snoozing in bed.. for now
-
my godness nic - u posted at 5.50am this morning, I cant believe so many kiddies were awake. Your house must be buzzing at that time in the morning!
Ash's new word - Dog! hehe he said it yesterday so im teaching him that one now.. :) Mum taught him clock, he cant say it but if she asks wheres clock he looks straight up at the wall!!! clever little boy! eheh We have our 8month check on tuesday wooot can wait to see his stats again! :D
well better go, someones blowing rasberries at me... lol
-
Me, Olivia and Simon were up at 4:50, jacob at 5:15 and Ethan at 5:30
Its good when they watch tv at that hour though but I hate when they are starving and have to eat breakfast lol..
Olivia is bieng fussy this morning.. didn't want breakfast didn't want booby.. Has had a sleep but just wants to get into everything.. agh she is into the wipes now
lauren: How cute.. Its so cute when they start saying little words.
-
Omigod Nic, that is way to early to be up.... We are nowhere near sleeping through here :rolleyes:
Lauren- Clever boy Ash!! I think the onlyt thing Ty tries to say is dummy.... he gets the 'dum' part out.
Teena- Disn't slap him, although I was very tempted. i used guilt tactics instead ;)
We had such a good day here yesterday, Ty had 3 day sleeps, one of them for hour and a half, and put himself to sleep for two of them, then put himself to sleep at bedtime. Still 3 night feeds, but no screaming and he let me sleep in till eight... heaven!! Oh and the little pork chop can finally sit up! Yay!! We still get a backwards fall down occasionally, but he's got the core strength going on :D

Teena, :hug: we've been having that with Ella lately too, no matter what we do. it's awful. The thing that gets me thru it, is knowing that Mummy needs to be OK to look after baby & have baby OK too. They won't remember the crying, and the crying is going to happen anyway in that kind of mood. Just take a break & step outside for a minute, or go where you can't here it & breathe deeply. Even just for a few seconds.
Lori, I would have slapped him too. I nearly cried when it looked like DH was feeling too sick just to put Ella to bed - he had to go out to a meeting after that & I was dreading the crying session & whatever else & just wanted 5 min to myself, so I totally think you weren't over-reacting. Mummy time is very rare & precious in the 24 hour job!
wtg Ash. Dunno if Ella's got any words down yet. Think she knows her name & have started teaching her sign for 'milk' which I think she's confused with waving, cos she's started doing it... but not for milk...
too tired to remember other personals, but hope you're all hanging in there.
on the meat, we've given ella cold roast chicken & she has absolutely loved it - very soothing for sore gums.
-
Lori - is that a recent pic of Ty ? he looks so little :D - i might just be used to big boofa Ash LOL
-
I bought Olivia some hair clips from ebay the other night and they arrived today...... here they are...

I went bike riding again this afternoon and I am quite sleepy now.. 5am is way to early to start the day I think :)
Anyways not much else to say.. hope everyone is happy and had a good day
Lauren: Have you mailed out the birthday list yet? if so I haven't got it yet but if not was just checking :P
-
Oh boy. We are having some AWFUL nights :( :( Screams and screams and screams. She's got a tooth coming at the top - can see the ridge so hopefully it's almost cut, but nurofen & bonjella just don't seem to be enough. She's fine through the day tho! She's also still having wind problems at night, so perhaps its not just teeth. But boy it's exhausting.
Mum is safely home from the UK, so I'm looking forward to her being over jetlag and helping with the kids again! LOL.
Well, I should go, will try and catch up soon.
And wow at the talking kiddies! Kayla still just says mumma and recognises her name. I think she recognises other names too.. not sure. We've started teaching a few signs too.
Bye!

Nic thats soo cute! thats one thing i would love to do hoping i have a girl one day! those little new born head bands are soo cute too.. hehe
I am going to do the bbday pressie thing this weekend, ive just been trying to get even numbers :)
-
:D Thanks Lauren
Liz: Sorry your nights haven't been so great! I am tired of the night waking and boy she cries when she is awake these days.. Driving me insane...
Olivia woke when we went to bed because Bl@@@@dy Simon coughed really loud.. I have asked him a gazillion times to try cough into his pillow or something .. When she woke I said gee thanks.. He said woops didn't think about muffling the cough..GRR I bet if he was the one who had to get up to her he would be quiet...
I didn't get her up.. she cried for about 15 minutes but put herself back to sleep.. She then woke again at 5:30 but Jacob woke cracking it at 2:30.. Man I am sick of this kid waking. he has been sleeping through again but last night and the night before he woke.. and both nights Olivia was pretty good. Actually I think Olivia woke t midnight and I fed her then :lol: I only just remembered that.. I knew I had got up to her at some stage last night. but still if Jacob had't woken up I would have slept 12 till 5:30 which is pretty decent.. aggghh..
