Susan- You poor thing, I'm feeling for you. Hoping the ac is up again working soon
Nic- Bleh yucky night. Olivia is a clever girl isn't she, I'm impressed Love your new ticker... bet that's hard, watching your babies start school
Rory- Nice to see you back hun
Lauren- Did you post that letter!?? Hope you did.
Ty has an awesome fake laugh and fake cough going on at the moment It is very cute. Teeth coming up all over the place- at last count it was 8 and 2 halfs.
I had an awesome time yesterday... we went for a New Years day bbq at one of dh's friend's mum's houses. It is literally a 3 storey mansion, with a pool and a tennis court, built into the side of a hill with water views of Sydney Harbour I've never seen anything like it, felt like it was out of a movie. We were guessing it would be worth a good $5 million
So that was a good start to the new year lol... Hope everyone else's new years days were good
WOW Lori what an impressive sounding house. It is hard knowing my baby is going to school.. I won't know what to do with myself with just 2 at home.. going to be so weird..
Lol Nic you might find some time to yourself Maybe. Maybe not either, with little miss running around everywhere now!
And it was very impressive house- I was a little bit intimidated They were really lovely people but, very hospitable..
Nic, you will love it huni! I know it sounds mean but I love the days when Tehya is at pre school and it's just Abbey and I. Nice to get some one on one time together.
Lauren, what a crack up that video is. Asher has the most infectious laugh, I was laughing right along with him. Sooooooo, did ya do it ???
Rory, great to see you back here girl. Hope all is well with your little men. I found with Tehya she was sooo much faster at everything than the other kids. Her talking, sitting up, even her crawling and walking. Abbey on the other hand seems to be a little slower on the crawling, walking, and her words. Although her talking is surely picking up. She does say quite a few "words" now. And she's the same as Olivia in that she climbs everything. We found her on the table out the back the other day. She'd climbed up on the chairs and got onto it!!
Tehya has seen a Dr but we haven't been able to get into a Paed as yet. Going to call today and see if they are open. Otherwise I will have to try again on Monday.
Susan, sorry to hear that your AC has died hun. Hope you are managing to keep your lot cool enough.
Lori, sure does sound like a nice house. Don't you wish hey. Abbey is up to 9 teeth now, she has one molar through and the other is nearly there. LOL at the fake cough Ty is doing. They sound so cute.
Had some friends over for a bbq lastnight. They never left til 11.30. Poor Abbey didn't go to bed until around 10.30. that's 2 nights in a row. Don't want this becoming a habit. I "think" DP is planning on taking Tehya and Noah away camping for the night. Not like I will get any peace though with the big boys here. Always something to fight or whinge about.
Before I forget.. teeth count here is 12. She cut all her molars without me realising.. but it sure explains some dreadful nights we had before I discovered them! Poor little chook. Dreading the eye teeth now (think it's the eye teeth left) coz aren't they meant to be the worst??
Kayla isn't much of a talker at all yet.. she points with her eyes LOL. She moves her head forward and her eyes almost pop out of her head LOL. So cute. She also points with her finger, but it's funny the way she kinda nods and pops her eyes out to tell me she's seen something. So yeah, not many words.. mum mum mum is a definite, and she was saying ffff ffff when I was trying to get her to say Sophie last night. She was watching my mouth and copying the ff sound. She does sign a few things now. She signs please, bird, & drink, and she understands other signs like book and ball, but hasn't signed them back yet. And she waves hello and goodbye of course. And blows kisses if she feels like it! hehe.
Trish - Kayla goes to bed around that time. I've given up putting her down at 7.30 with Tallon. Well, I do put her to bed, but when she wakes I get her up. Coz we've learnt the hard way that if she goes straight back to sleep at about 8.30/9.00 when she wakes, then she wakes around 2am and cannot get back to sleep. So if I get her up and wear her out some more, she only wakes for feeds after that. I can handle feeds, just not playing and crying and fussing!
Lauren - hope you posted your letter. And I hope it all turns out well for you. I hope they embrace Asher and make up for that lost time. It's a sad situation really.
Well I'm busy preparing for a kids party that I'm throwing next week. A friend and I sat up putting lolly bags together and wrapping prizes and things last night. So at least the fiddly bits are done and I only have to worry about food now! hehe.
Rory - how's the toilet training? Ours is going great guns Only have a nappy on for sleeps now. Will probably try our first shopping outing today. eek.
OK, should go have my shower. Kayla's asleep, DH has crashed on the lounge and Tallon is out the back watching playschool.
Happy new year everyone, hope 2009 is a fantastic year for you all!
We had a good night, camping up at the river, quiet but good.
Susan – how did the kids go at the fireworks? I hope you all had a lovely night! Have you got your ac fixed? You poor thing!
Lauren – I’m not sure on the story of Rob as I joined the group late but I gather he hasn’t told his parents about Asher? OMG! They do need to know to atleast make the choice as to whether they want to be a part of their life, you’re putting the ball in their court and that is such a brave thing to do! Very proud of you… you go girl!! And woohoo at Ash walking, that’s fantastic… clever little guy!
Trish – hope you get Tehya into a paed soon, poor little mite! Good on you for stopping to see to that guy, that was very brave also! And another woohoo on Tehya taking her first steps! How cute she finally said mum, she just wanted to keep you in suspense and make it even more special I think!
Nic – you poor thing with all that heat! We’re having the coldest summer in 30 years here so far, average around 24 degrees, I’m almost wishing for a little bit of hot weather so I can take Jake to the beach! Jake’s the same with his walking now, he’s a pro and got a bit of a run going too, it’s so cute! Sorry to hear Olivia didn’t want to play happy sleepers last night, I had the same thing on new years eve.
Bekz – glad you got some time to yourself with DH, we’ve found it’s so refreshing when we’re able to do that, which isn’t very often! I have everything crossed that your 12 week scan will go perfectly, I’m sure it will!
Well, not much else to report here at the moment, DH is over at our block demolishing the old building there so we can get it cleared to start building in a few months time, I'm really excited about that and can't wait to be in or own home... hopefully by xmas this year woohoo! Well I can smell a stinky nappy so better go do something about that lol, catch you all a bit later.
xxx
Nic - Hugs hon re your boy going off to school. Must be very daunting. I am so nervous about having 3 at home...ekk.
Adkin - Good luck with building hon...it is such a big job.
Rory - So glad to see you here. Loren seems to be a bit slower with things than Sara. Sara was saying heaps of words by 13 months and Loren doesn't say much at all. Although is doing other things that Sara didn't, like holding my hand and giving me kisses.
Lori - What a house!! sounds awesome.
Liz-Wow on 12 teeth for Kayla. Loren is cutting her top fanks atm, so far these are really bothering her and she waking up screaming through the night.
