Babies Born December 2007 #21

Hello ladies & bubs.
After a crappy morning of rain & kids fighting before school,I can finally sit in peace this afternoon only because it`s homework time,lol.

Lori- My studies are Private Investigator,course.Iam doing the same work as DH,mainly so i can work my own hours,when I choose too, ykwim. I wont be finished until next August,09. How are you going? Where was that snake you saw,Lori? We have had snakes here in Parramatta in Summer.:o

Not much is happening around here,kids are all good for once.
going to help DH prepare home made pizza`s for dinner tonight.

Hope everyone is having a good afternoon,cheers.:D

Buzzie - You need a big hug...:grouphug:Good on you girl for knowing what is actually best for you. This is really hard to do when you really want to give your child what everyone thinks is a"normal" family.

Not much happening here. Sara is asleep after a long day of swimming and going to grandma's place. Sara had one of her monumental tanties when we got home so got packed off to bed kicking and screaming. Loren is under the pergola pushing around a toddler bike, and she is absolutely filthy. As a first time mum I never let Sara get really dirty, now having 2 I let Loren explore and get dirty...bad mummy

not a bad mummy, just realistic

Bekz- I here you with No2 i am so much more relaxed about her getting filthy lol. Hey kids arent supposed to be clean 24/7 and thats what bath time is for.

Well DD1 has come down with Molly's cold so still not getting much sleep. Also DH and i are having a really bad time at the moment and i dont really know where we stand. I would like to work things through but he isnt so sure. He said i can leave but i'm not taking "his" girls away from him and TBH i dont want to leave i want us to be a "happy" family. I dont really want to air my dirty laundry all over the net but just so you know things are really bad for me right now so i'm sorry if i'm a bit all over the place or not around much. I'm just trying to get through one day at a time at the moment. Please if any of you talk to me through msn dont say anything incase i am not online and DH gets it iykwim. I would hate to make things worse right now.

Hope you are all well.

Hoody - :grouphug:. I don't know what else to say. If you need to talk you can pm me.

Hoody - hugs your way too. Dont feel so bad having a spill, everyone knows about me and my stupid 'partner' issues. ive been all over the place for 9 years lol
As for "happy families" thats up to each individuals opinion of what one actually is. Ive come to realise Ash has a happy family already with or with out daddy in the picture cos hes got ALOT of love around him already. And from personal experience, kids know everything, if mummy are daddy arent happy.... the kids will know somehow somethings up. Making the decision today to get on with my life without rob as a "happy family senario" was a great lift off my shoulder. I know our situations are very different, but you need to look after you too and you should have and deserve a man who respects you too! :)

:hug: Hoody !

Buzzie - big hugs. When I saw on FB that you are now listed as single, I was sad for you but after reading your story here, I am proud of you and the decisions you have had to make. Has Ashies tooth come all the way through yet? We still don't have one through yet.

Hoody - big hugs for you hun. It sucks to be in the place you are now and I really hope you and DH can work it out.

Louise - How did all Sofia's celebrations go? Sick of cake yet? Please post a pic of little miss one - would love to see her.

MoM - I always wanted to be a PI when I was growing up. Well done studying. I just couldn't do it with bubs.

I am so jealous of mums getting sleep. I am still up through the night and haven't slept through for 5 months now. I really need that to change with No2 on the way. I am getting so tired.

Tinsel - :grouphug: hugs to you and sleep vibes coming your way hon...

Whilst in the bath I noticed that Loren has two more teeth peeking through. No wonder she has been wanting to bite everything in the last week.

Tinsel - thanku for that :) its hard enough making decisions for our selves but when they effect another little human gees it makes it all 10times harder.
Still only a 1/4 of one tooth here been sitting there for a couple weeks now, no sign of the next one coming any time soon.

Did you end up doing another test? how far along are you now?

Hi all,
Lauren- :hug: for you. i definately think you've made the right desicion. And you are right- kids are happier if mum and dad are happy, whether that's happy together or happy apart.

Hoody- And :hug: for you. As above :) What a tough desicion to have to work through.

MoM- Wow how exciting, you clever girl :) I ran over a black snake here in good old Currans Hill (near Campbelltown). On the main road, only an hour after I was walking there. Bleeping thing was over a metre long too.

Tinsel- Don't be too jealous of me- Ty has only slept through twice in almost eleven months :rolleyes: And last night we were back to our usual up every three hours or so... and some :stickyvibesboy: coming your way...

Gonna be a hot one here. It's my birthday tomorrow :) I'm a whole 27. And we have a christening to go to on Sunday which is only 4 doors down from us, so we cxan leave at nap time and come back after yay!

ETA- Btw Bekz- Dirt is good, I reckon. Let the messy little critters into as much as they like!

Sofia is havig her birthday party tomorrow, so I will post some pictures tomorrow.

Just a note, I don't think Sofia has ever slept through, but Maria didn't until she was about 15 months old

Morning all :)

not much to report.. hope all is well..

Liz: Is Kaylas Birthday the 5th November??

Hello All,

Well i am feeling a bit calmer today. Molly is almost back to her normal self an slept through last night 5.30pm-8am. DD1 is still full of snot etc but her asthma has settled down a bit thank goodness. I feel terrible as i still sent her to DC today as i really need some me time. My sister has taken Molly for the day too so i can REALLY have a me day. Going to nip to the shops and catch up on some Housework etc then have a nice LONG hot shower and do my hair properly etc. DH and i sat down last night and had a big talk and cleared the air a bit. Things are by no means rosy but i am feeling a bit better. We have decided to work on our relationship and to try to start working as a team. I know changes wont happen over night but at least we are heading in the right direction with baby steps iykwim. We both love eachother and want the relationship to work. I think the stress of having the girls so close together has taken its toll on DH. TBH i think he feels very neglected by me and that all my energy is put into the girls- perhaps its is. He is the type of person that needs affection to feel loved iykwim he likes lots of it not just in a sexual way but the holding hands, me running to greet him when he comes home and happy to see him etc. So that is my project to work on to make him feel like i love him which of course i do and his is to try and help me out more with the girls and to be more involved in our family. We tend to live very separate lives so we need to start acting like a family. Wow i wasnt going to write to much on the subject but i guess i must have needed to unload whats on my chest a little.

I am now off to enjoy my child free morning. I hope you all have wonderful weekends :)

As its the 1st of November tomorrow, ill try to start organising now for our online cyber birthday/chrissy party lol:birthday2:

If anyone wants to do it, can everyone try to be online on the 29th November which is a saturday about 12pm? - Please note the time differences in states. Im basing 12pm on Melb time. (if that time is too hard pls let me know)

Try to make sure pressies are posted that week before, if you want to know exactly how long your postage will take to get to someone before the friday you can look at Welcome To Australia Post and itll tell you cost and times for posting.

And dont forget, mums still offered a Little Tikes toy to the winner of our game. :D

Those who dont yet have a msn account, if you can please sign up for one, then we can all chat on the same box, otherwise posting will get way too messy. I think this is the easiest way to do it :D

Hope you are all intrested for those who arent, thats ok, just a bit of fun :partysmiley:

Awesome Lauren :) Now I just need to remember my msn password.... I don't get on there much...

Can't wait Lauren :woo:

Hoody: Glad you and DH had a talk.. fingers crossed things start improving :hug:

Lauren - Good on you! :D

Hoody - It is terrible when things are not good at home. I hope they improve after you talk :hug:

MoM - A PI!!!! I know it is probably just a normal boring job but you have to admit it sounds exciting and important :lol:

Bek - I am all for a bit of playing in the dirt (although I am not keen on her eating it), it's just a normal part of getting out and exploring things. Olivia had a great time at the playground earlier in the week just 'sorting' the tan bark and putting it in her shoes!

Louise - I hope Sofia's birthday goes well.

Party - Unfortunately I have a Chrsitmas party to go to on the 30th so wont be online :doh: But just in case things change my msn address is in my profile on here and you are welcome to add me :D Of course I will still post my pressie.

Well we had the WORST night here EVER! Olivia cried and cried until 2am! Nothing helped and in the end things here were a little tense. At 2am I again tried taking her to bed with me and she finally drifted off but between 2 and 5:30 she was constantly grizzling and wriggling. So we got up at 5:30 (when DH got up) and went to the lounge for a bit. Finally at 8:30 we both fell asleep on the couch for 2 hours. I am SO tired! And of course DH rang before and said he is going out tonight and then again tomorrow morning :rolleyes: So I will be left with the overtired crying baby. Not sure what is wrong with her, she had a temp of 38.5-39 all day yesterday and keeps rubbing her tumb on her top gum so hopefully it is just her teeth and it will settle down again :crossfingers:

Sorry that was a long rant. I should be napping while the little Miss is finally quiet but I have never really been able to sleep during the day...
Have a good day all.
