[mummy of many]

Hi girls,

Buzzie- Glad to hear that Ash has settled into cc,hun,it doesn`t usually take them long,they have so much fun,once they start to participate in play.At least it`s some relief knowing he`s happy when your at work.
I saw your pics on f/book,i hope Rob does the right thing by you & Ash,hun.Rob seemed to be enjoying his time with Ash,hun. Good luck.

Nic-Hi,poor Miss Olivia,surely she isn`t that bad,lol!!!!

Alicia-Hi,I agree there is something deffinately going around,my youngest two have been sick,now my other bigger kids are sick & i feel like crap today as well,I wish they would keep their bugs to themselves,lol. Hope your cold passes soon,hun.
I understand about the tantrums,Kieren is starting to throw them at the shops when i try to put him in the shopping trolley,he wants to walk with his brother,& everyone has a good stare when he cries.

Tincel-Hi hun,how are you,I bet you count down the weeks until you finish up with your work.I hope your doing ok,how is Monique settling into cc, is she having fun now too.
Take care of yourself.

*yawn* Why oh why do I do it?? I didn't go to bed till 3am kids were up at 6.. I am soooo tired .. but I had such a good night.. ah well.. Nap time here we come

[TeenaRose]

Hi everyone...Again its been a heck of a long time since I posted.....So much been going on here not all is wonderful....either...

Family is great, though DP was laid off just over a week ago and so far no luck finding another job looking quite bleak out there, job wise...We will survive though just no luxeries as such which prob be good for my waist anyway...

Got some more grouting done yesterday what a messy job that is but the end result is beautiful....

Olivia is such a Diva as everyone else children tantrums galore here esp if I take something of her she really wanted.....She really loves being outside and getting filthy esp loves water and will take any opportunity to get under the sprinkler or play with the air con hose...

I want to wean olivia now as I am sick to death of he r waking for her night feed....She has formed a habit now any one got any tips to make it easier ....she flat out refuse cows milk and formula.....sigh

Hope everyone who's children are unwell that they get better real quick and that you don't catch the bugs...

Bye for now

[Buzzie]

Hi Teena, sorry to hear about DH fingers crossed he finds something soon.
I cant give u advice on stopping BF as im not ready too, but with the milk, ash refused cows milk also about a month or 2 ago when i did try weaning, and just last week ABC tried uht full cream and he screamed when they took it off of him (it was another babys cup lol) SO i guess you just have to keep trying different milks maybe or different times and if shes ready shell go for it..... ?

[kitten2b]

So long since i have posted as well. I finished work a couple of weeks ago and now I am at my parent's place in Forbes for a few weeks. It has been great - posted some new photos on facebook, though Fia has had a cold which is slowly getting better. She has some new words including "Fia's shoes", "Chook", "Cat", "Kitty" and "mine".

Teena - my girls usually only drink uht milk and they love it. Not sure when Fia will wean but she also loves her milk sippy cup as well.

Teena: Hi.. good to see you posting in here

about Dp and his job.. I hope another comes up soon.. As for weaning. I went through that with my Olivia but I just stopped feeding her overnight. I just simply refused it. She doesn't have any boo boo from around 7:30 at night till she wakes in the morning. Of course if I think she hasn't eaten much during the day and she wakes I will offer it but most of the time now she doesn't want it. she just wants water.. and I have to say since we managed to take that away she has slept heaps better. She still wakes up sometimes between her bedtime and our bedtime and I think she hears noises so wakes.. Either way it is so frustrating

Lauren: Olivia hates full cream milk in a cup. so did Jacob. I wonder if they don't like the taste cus BM is so much sweeter? Jacob started drinking cows milk about a month after he weaned. But he isn't that fussed on it now

Louise: Will have to go check out those pics. Are you enjoying not working? Sofia sounds so adorable.. Fias shoes.. too cute!!

Well I better get back into my cleaning.. 10 hours sleep overnight and now I don't have an excuse of im to tired to clean hahaha

[Buzzie]

hi girls, just a quick one as im shutting down the lappy now, tonight is meet the family night at 5pm.. getting a little nervous but im more worried about ash sitting still, he hates sitting at restaurants. we're going to zagames cos it has a playground and they booked the seat at the entrance of it so will be good i hope... wish me luck lol

will let everyone know how we go when i get online again, might not be till tomorrow night depending on what time i get home.

Have a great sunday everyone!

[Lolli]

Hi all,

Lauren I hope everything goes well for you tonight hun Toddler in a resturant is interesting under the best of circumstances.

Teena- Don't know how to help there hun, Ty weaned himself not long ago. I hope your dh finds some work soon, it's tough atm. Ty loves water and being filthy too In fact, the biggest tanties we get atm are when I won't let him go outside to run around.

Nic- What were you doing up till 3am you naughty mummy? I was telling dh I need a cleaning fairy that does it for me, out of the goodness of her heart... if I find one I'll send her your way too

Louise- Hi hun, what a clever girl Sofia is! Always nice, staying with your mum for a bit nothing like mum's house no matter how big you get.

Susan- Hope you feel better soon hun, and the kids too

Umm... I have a confession to make. We went to a train festival today, took a ride on the steam train they had ther. Had to park our stroller. When we got back, Ty was screaming, so i went to move the car closer while dh grabbed the stroller. And when we where putting in the car... well... I had a proper look at it and it was not our stroller. I went back and tried to find who it belong ed to (and who had ours) but no luck- there would have been 2000 people there. It's exactly the same as ours but in a bit better condition. I feel so bad

[aussienic]

Nic- What were you doing up till 3am you naughty mummy?

Not much but probably more then I should have been haha..

I got a fair bit of cleaning done today though.. Simon did the backyard.. me and the 2 big boys did under the house.. upstairs however.....................

about the stroller.. I would feel guilty to but hey it was the same it is all fine.. Enjoy getting a bit more life out of one

[Hoody]

Lauren- Hope the dinner went well I'm sure Ash was a star and they all loved him.

Lori- Thats funny about the stroller at least the one you picked up is slightly better and not worse. PMSL.

Teena- SOrry to hear about DP's job. Hope he finds work soon.

MOM- Hope the colds getting better and you are on the mend.

Nic- I'm always to tired for cleaning too lol. I'd rather use my energy on other things.

Well having a nice relaxing long weekend Went for the interview on Wed and didnt have much luck but then went for another on Sat and the Lady was lovely. She said that she had interviewed another mature age person and she also had young kids and she was going to find it very hard to pick between us. She then asked if i'd do a Part Time apprenticiship as the other lady would then she could employ us both. Anyway long story short this would suit me even better. It means tafe 1 day a week and working 2. So still lots of time to be a Mumma. I go in Thur for a trial and to fill in some paper work so fingers crossed it all goes well. For the girls who commented on the money i know Hairdressing pay sucks but i'm thinking short term loss for long time gain as once qualified i will try and open a salon of my own. DH wants me to get a business now but i want to get into something i know iykwim. If not i could always do from home and take it everywhere with me iykwim.

Well Molly is alot better now and back to normal. She is taking lots of "limpy" steps though still not walking fluently.

Well DH jsut woke up (he got to sleep in til 10 gee i'm a nice wife today) So off to make a cuppa for us both.

[Buzzie]

All went absolutely fantastic, couldnt of asked for any better. ash was an angel.. no joke, sat very still ate his dinner had a play, gave everyone cuddles and zonked out and had a sleep so i got to eat my dinner...lol it was like everything was ment to be..LOL

Robs staying at his brothers house near me for 2 weeks whilst there over seas so were gonna go up there and see him.. will be so nice to spend some time with him in a quiet house with just ash.... i think hes getting all mushy again..but im playing a little hard to get,, gotta give him something to work for if ash isnt enough..lol


Lori - that cracked me up.. i prob would of felt bad, but would of kept going, that was nice of u to try to find the owner..hehe

Hi girls, sorry just jumping in without reading the latest posts...

I've jsut spent the last 2 evenings making a whopping great pdf of our belly buddies (due Dec 1-15th 2007). So if you girls would like a copy of it PM me your email addy

having been stung by not saving DS's belly buddies (got deleted in the BB archive ) I decided to sit down and just do it.. so it's done. All 20 threads in 1 big PDF file LOL. 863 pages worth!! Anyway.. let me know if you want a copy so you can keep it archived somewhere yourself

Baby buddies is next!

[kitten2b]

[aussienic]

I would love a copy too and wow we sure talked a lot..

Lauren: glad it all went well

[Liz]

hang on a sec... might have a change of plans. Its a big file 26MB compressed... so I might set up a quick place you can download it from instead of emailing. Bear with me!

[Liz]

OK, glad I'm not emailing this to you, coz it would take forever. LOL. Its taking ages to upload to the server... will get there eventually! Will be quick to download tho.. depending on your internet speeds
