Congradulation's Tinsel and family

[Hoody]

Tinsel- A huge congrats and lots of sticky vibes your way I found out i was pg with Molly the weekend of my DD1's first birthday and i love having my girls so close. I was a serial tester too pmsl my DH used to think i was mad lol.

OMG i am so tired after getting in so late last night. Molly seems to be getting better slowly and was pretty good this arvo. I have just made a heap of party invites for her. We have decided to have it at home and borrow a friends bouncy castle for the bigger kids. I am getting really excited about it. Her b'day is Thurs the 13th but we are having the party Sat the 15th its a shame non of you are perthies or you'd all be invited too. Now jsut to get everything organised and to work out what food to do etc. There will be about 20 kids ranging from 8months to 6yrs. I dont want lots of junk food but i want them to enjoy it lol so i think i will check out some of the threads on here that i have seen around and pinch some ideas.

Congrats Tinsel How exciting!!

Louise: Its come up so fast hasn't it? A friend of mine her sons 1st birthday is also Wednesday

Hoody: wow a jumping castle.. Cool.. I wish I lived in Perth.. I will get there one day.. Maybe 2010

I went to bed at 9 last night :O lol.. Thats so early for me.. lucky I did cus Olivia woke at 3:30 and though oo goody I can play now. I don't know what time she eventually went back to sleep but I woke again at 5:20 and got up wit Simon for a little while. Ethan is awake already *sigh* I wish eh would realise its ok to sleep past 6:30 especially on a school morning. He will be so tired and emotional by this afternoon...

Well off to enjoy my morning coffee befoe the rest of my tribe wake up

[Buzzie]

OMG congrats Tinsel, sticky vibes coming your way have u been to gp and got a DD yet or still giving it more time??

[alicia]

Wow Tinsel - Congratulations!

Well the 'fresh air trick' didn't work for us :-( We were outside and out and about all Saturday and Sunday and Olivia has slept terribly both nights. Last night she just wouldn't go to sleep at all and then was up in the early hours again and then up early to start the day. I am a total zombie this morning! Hopefully Gymbaroo today will wear her out a little *fingers crossed*

[Tinsel]

Thanks everyone. I did another test this morning and the line is definitely there but it is not as dark as the control line yet. I think I will give it more time before I go to the GP but according to my calcs, I would be due around 4 July (I usually have a 35 day cycle). I am hoping it is a sticky little one and I've only heard positive comments on having kids this close together which is great. We kind of wanted it that way as well and this will be my last bub too.

Louise - TonyDayl was in the other December thread to ours and she is due 15 March and I have been in touch with her and she is doing great. Maybe Bek will be the next.

Hoody - I am a shocker with the testing. I did OPK"s with the last pregnancies as well (I had a missed miscarriage the first time) and then doing the pg test after the TWW. I was addicted and glad I got the cheap ones online. I used to hide them from DH because he thought I was mad too LOL. The party sounds great! I really wish we had a yard. It would be so much easier. I made Monique's invites and they turned out really well. I just need to finalise a location now.

It is going to be hot here today so when Missy wakes up from her nap, we need to do grocery shopping. Have a good day everyone.

[Lolli]

Hi all,
Tinsel- Wow congrats. We've been talking about having anither here too. If I start getting proper sleep again I'll never want another one so maybe we should do it now too- get all my sleep deprivation out in one go

Lauren- Your poor little man Hope he feels better soon.

MoM- Ty and I love to feed the ducks, we've got a little duck pond about a two minute walk away, it's great. Although I did run over a black snake there the other day (in the car, not with the pram!!) so we have to be careful (and yes, this is in the middle of the suburbs!!!!!!!!).

That's another two nights in a row Ty has stayed in his own bed yayyy! and last night was with only about 5 minutes fo screaming. We are on the right track here.
We're off to the clinic to get weighed and head measured- Ty's fontanelle has closed up really early- at nine months- so we have to make sure his head is still growing. I'm sure it is- he's a boofhead
Gonna be a very hot day here by the looks of it, so I might even send Ty and dh to the pools this arvo and have some mummy time

[Michelle_k]

OMG tinsel, wow. so happy for you.

just got back from mirani's ultrsound this morning, now just have to wait for the endochronologist to call with the results. so we can schedule surgery.
fidget was so good at keeping her little bladder full.

now i think she might be asleep

my grandparents are coming over for xmas this year but they arrive on the 12/12 which is fidget's 1st birthday, so we are going to have a family party on the 13th. and i havent even thought of what to get her for her birthday let alone xmas!

[Hoody]

Michelle- You have more time than Me. Its Molly's birthday 2 weeks on thurs and i have NO idea what i am getting her. SHe doesnt need anything and coming from a large family i know she is going to get spoilt. Its all just to hard lol. I hope you get the results you need so you can schedule the surgery.


Lori- woohoo on the improvement of your nights.

Tinsel- Glad your re testing confirmed the 1st one lol. Is DH excited? Will you wait til 12 wks to tell family? I told the world with both my girls at 4wks

Aussienic- I'm so jealous of your early night. Not so much with the early start though pmsl. Hope you have had a good day.

All is ok here. Went food shopping this mo then came home and put Molly down for a nap. Whilst she was asleep i made a huge tuna pasta bake thing for the girls (i always like to have some in the freezer for when i am been lazy) and i also made a potato bake and prepared tea. We then went to the park with a friend and let the bigger kids run wild lol. It has been a lovely day weather wise. Molly is still really snotty and her cough sounds more like a bark but other than looking and sounding ***** she appears much better in herself. I hope you all had good days.

Hello Ladies,

I have been lurking from time to time, but DH is o/s and I have been flat out. Only 7 more sleeps till he is home....Sara is not coping with her Daddy being away. I had her asking for Daddy at 1am this morning!!! Apparently Spiderman was in her room and she needed Daddy to get him out.

Michelle - Glad you are feeling better. Hugs regarding Mirani. You sound like you've got it all sorted though.

Tinsel - WOW a huge congratulations!!! We started ttc this month. I am now in the TWW!!!

We are loving the sunny weather too. I fill up a water table for Sara and she has all sorts of fun, mind you Loren is getting in amongst it too, much to Sara's displeasure.

Buzzie - Poor little Ash...get better vibes coming his way. How cute on the singing. Loren has just started to say na...at least it is more than just da which is all she normally says.

Kitten - I can't believe one of our bubs is 1 this week..

Hoody - Get better vibes to Molly. You are so brave to stay out till 3am, it would take me a week to get over that.

Lori - So glad Ty has had a couple of good nights.

Loren is standing on her own more and more, I am expecting her to start walking very soon.

I am supposed to be doing house work now, but I really can't be buggered. I think I may have a shower and an early night.

[aussienic]

Just a quick drop by.. hi to everyone!

Olivia learnt new things today.. She can say Up and Yuck and oooh.. when she says yuck she is copying me and says yu yu yu.. so cute.. and when you say livvy Stand up she stands up and lets go then dives onto you. so adorable!! She is such a doll..

[Buzzie]

Bekz - thats so cute with the spiderman!! aweeeeeee
Fingers crossed for your 2WW !!! how nerve racking!!

Nic - love the yu yu yu LOL they learn the best things first hehe

Off to the hospital today.. yippie cant wait to see the little bubba!

Ash is finally back to himself thank goodness poor thing was miserable!

have a good one everyone!

[BekZ]

Nic - Loren does the stand and launch maneuver too. Poor Sara gets terrorised whenever she is sitting on her bean bag. Loren just loves to launch herself at her

Buzzie - I am trying not to think about the TWW. I really don't think we'll manage to conceive after trying just the once, but I guess that is all it took for Sara and Loren. You know how it goes when you try you don't get but when you don't try you get...A couple of ladies from my old bb thread have announced their pregnancies, so now I hope I can too, because they were great Belly Buddies, although I did leave them early due to m/c

[Hoody]

OMG what a day we are having. We take 2 steps forward then 6 back i am sure. Cant seem to get on top of anything and to top it off i've been wee'd, poo'd, snotted and thrown up on *sigh* Molly is obviously feeling off due to her cold and there for been a velcro bub so its impossible to do anything. Well off to cuddle her some more as she is crying AGAIN.

Oh do you all like my ticker? I cant believe how grown up my baby is starting to look

[BekZ]

Hoody - Hugs. Is that Molly in your ticker..She looks like my DD did at that age, very grown up.

[Buzzie]

omg hoody - Molly looks like a young lady there! wow so grown up! Hope your day starts to improve! *hugs*

ok i got all gooshy seeing the little bubba today.. awwwww but i know my time is not for a while now, so im back into reality now.

Brought Ash his birthday present today, early i know but kmart had a massive clearance. got this huge monster truck, its almost bigger than him lol but he just LOVEs cars and wheels. i want to give it to him now LOL

[Hoody]

Yes its molly in the ticker. DD1 had way more hair at 11months. I took the photo this morning b4 things went down hill. Still having a yuk day but both girls are playing together and have been for about 10 mins so i am having a mini break. Molly hasnt slept at all today not through lack of trying though i think i have put her down about 15 times but its just not working iykwim. Hopefully it means she will sleep tonight but i doubt it. I am off to puppy school at 7pm and very much looking forward to my hours peace away from the girls. Though now i say that i am feeling guilty. Having such i blah day roll on tomorrow with happy children

This probably sounds really ridiculous considering i am her mother but i am at a complete loss at what to get my DD2 for her birthday. She will be turning 1 in 2wks time. As my DD1 is only 20months older we have way too many toys, clothes in abundance etc etc. In other words there is nothing she needs and i dont want to just spend for the sake of it. Has anyone ever just put the money into there dd or ds's bank acc instead of buying presents or is this a "cop out" as my IL's have told me. Its not like she understands the concept of presents yet and we are having a party so we will be celebrating the day etc i just dont have any idea what to get for her and TBH dont have the $$ to waste on cr@p we dont need iykwim. With both sets of grand parents, 6 sets of Aunts/uncles and friends etc i know she is going to get spoilt.

So what do you BB girls think- money into bank acc or can you give me a gift idea

This is from another thread i started but thought i'd see what you girls think too
