Sorry everyone i was going to do personals but its just too hard with a new thread iykwim going back and forward. I hope you are all well anyway.
Molly finally seems to be back to her old self and OMG she actually slept through last night She has been going down at normal time but getting up really early morning (like3-4am) and been unsettled but was a star last night. Shame DD1 thought my bed was better than hers at 4.30am this mo and woke me up climbing in. I swear if its not one waking me its the other. *sigh* Well DH comes home early hrs fri morning and i cant wait to see him. Mind you i have got so much done whilst he's been away. I've spring cleaned all wardrobes, linen press, pantry and kitchen cupboards etc. Very impressed with myself mind you he wont notice. Well Molly is stirring so off to tend to the kids.

Nic - that slapping cracked me up! LOL i would laugh at it too.
Bekz - yay on the weight... you can loose heaps of weight and feel good about it, but nothing tops other people noticing it!!
Trish - I would be soo mushy seeing a little new born again, lucky you, do you get to have cuddles with them too??
Hoody - thats great molly slept for you. So glad to hear shes feeling better.
Not sure if it was Liz or Lori, but good luck on the talks today infront of everyone!
mum and i went for a coffee this morning and it was sooo fantastic, found a cafe with a little play pen/centre thingo and it was great yet so sad i put ash in it to play while i had my coffee and it felt so wierd, sad because hes such a big boy now he can play in them while i have a baby free coffee lol
"baby free coffee" - I only get that when I go to work and work is more stress then fun atm. Be back later, have to finish the month end results, and a pile a mile high of docs to sign.
My poor little baby. She has a terrible cough that makes her vomit and can't breathe when she has a fit so I am taking her off to the doctor this afternoon. She has had a good sleep today and is still sleeping and she needs it (so do I after her keeping me awake all night). It's hard for her to BF as well in between coughing and trying to breathe through her nose. I hate seeing her unwell and we just get over a sickness and we all feel good for a week or so and then we get something else. I can't imagine her in child care picking up something new all the time. How tiring.
Anyway, my pamper day didn't happen but I sent my sister as it was her birthday present from me.
I have to try and get all the banana out of Monique's hair when she wakes up. I know we have to let them feed themselves to develop motor skills etc but it is so messy. I can't believe the places I find pieces of food and some things get so gross (like banana and avocado).
How funny is Julia Morris on the fernwood ad - "Now that I'm preggers".... she looks great.
Tinsel - i laughed at that add too!! shes a classic julia morris!
Ash also had a very bad cold like that a month or 2 ago and was choking and vomiting too. He got sooo upset by it!
Very muchly highly recomend gymbaroo.. we had a GREAT time. it really perks up the babies people skills, ash loves playing with other kids and had a great time, it also forces parents to interact too.. and you can all act like idiots together and who cares.. ehehe!! Cant wait for next week!!!
Nic - omg ur MIL i feel sorry for you and simon! do you just keep visiting them for simon?? i seriously couldnt stand doing that all the time.
Kitten - I just saw your ticker.. holy cow you have a FIRST birthday coming up!!! Now thats scary how fast thats gone!
We had an interesting weekend just gone, Rob came over for a ' Family ' BBQ! talk about breaking the ice! It was the first time he has really come over for a family thing and thankgod everything went really well!! Was so nice to have them together tho. Ash really needs to start warming up to this guy! lol
Did lots of christmas shopping for Ash today, put a heap of summer clothes on layby - 30% off Baby Target.. yay hehe, will pickup just in time for chrissy, rob and i are going shopping for his real presents tho. Cant wait for christmas.. wooooot!!
