Lauren, we are planning on getting one of those bikes for Olivia very soon. I test sat her on one the other week and she looks a bit shorter on it than Ash does :-) If you don't mind me asking how much is your mum paying for the bike? I am looking for a deal on one ;-)

[Buzzie]

These bikes are called Ultima girls or boys. They are not yet released anywhere else. We have got great connections and are the first to sell them YAY
We sell them for $169.95 but mum said she would be happy to give you 10% off and make it $152.00 - Only my friends get it cheap! lol
Plus we can courier it for $7!! or we can catch up for coffee and im happy to bring it. - Someone is selling them on ebay for $179.95, i dont know who tho.

Heres the picture of the girls version:

Buzzie - It is .com...

[Buzzie]

m of m - it has a thick strap that goes around there waist and between there legs.
It was the first thing i checked before putting ash on it, and hes very wobbly on things like that and i was doing donuts and he didnt move an inch. straps in well!

Bek I added you

Lauren: Olivia was fine.. I don't know what she was doing though.. it was 1:30 in the morning lol.. but tonight I will make sure the side is up.. She is the first to fall out which isn't bad going seeing as I have 4

I feel so bad with Olivia.. None of the boys have fallen off the bed or out of the cot as often as Livi.. She seems to always have little spills

Well she is now asleep so seeing as my arm is falling asleep I better put her to bed.

[Buzzie]

Bekz - yes chating on the 30th. 12 pm - sorry dont know what that is in other states

hmm.. we bought a trike for Tallon ages ago that we can steer. Looks similar.. but different. Got it from toys r us. So.. not the only one! hehe.

I wanna get Tallon the glide to ride bike. Looks way better than using a trike. And it skips the training wheels stage.

ETA: MoM - our trike has attachments that convert the seat to a seat that's better for littlies. Has a little sunshade thing for them too. I should look up what brand it is.

ETA(2): Ok.. ours is the Smart Trike. It has 3 different stages - with baby seat, then just trike with the parents handle, and then just a normal trike. (found it in the current toysrus catalogue. There's another one there that you can steer too.

morning all.. Well as usual the night before simon starts work Olivia sleeps like crap.. I am so over it you have no idea.. yet again I am sitting here with semi closed eyes..

She woke at 9. 10, 11:30 I brought her into bed with me. 3 she wakes for the day.. I don't freakin think so my sweet.. at 4 I got fed up so I put her in her cot and let her scream and scfeam. Simnon got up and went and slept on the couch I joined him but she was so loud. We finally fell asleep just before 5. I have no idea if simon got up in time or not but he was gone to work when I got up I didn't get to say good bye..

i am thinking I will wait till after her birthday and then its get tough time.. We will simply sleep in the lounge for a few nights and once she goes to bed not go back into her room till morning.. I have to do something.. How do you others cope? What do you do the following day after a bad night?

[Buzzie]

Liz - The eurotrike has been out for a very long time with the parent steering, The ultima you can twist the handle and and make it turn left or right which is the first in the series to do that. - I dont know which one ur refering to, but im sure companies will catch on very quickly and sell them anyway. i dont know wat other states have them if they do already.

Nic - poor thing. thats way too early to start the day hope u get a good day to make up for it ??

[Liz]

Yep ours steers by twisting the handle. I've seen them around. They were the only ones we were interested in. We didn't want one that we couldnt' steer coz it's too hard otherwise. I was pregnant at the time and didn't want to have to try and push a trike around without steering hehe.
