OK I'm back, who knows how long the peace will last so here we go...
With DTD Im glad we got it over and done with(how romantic)Im still not in a big rush to do it again though... not that it wasnt good, it was nice to be close to DP but I think its just being so busy with Winter, as bad as it sounds it feels like.. oh i really dont know how to explain, so maybe ill stop dribbling :P
So I was sitting with DP at the table last night and I said to him that I had something to tell him... it went something like this... "Dad Ive been thinking and Ive spoken to my baby buddies and they all agree with me - We are buying a new pram. Sorry you cant change my mind, ive even been looking on ebay." "Ok well I guess i cant say anything" "No, you cant. I love you" heheheh
Hope everyone is having a great friday and has a great weekend
Oh one last thing for now... DP now calls BB my "cult" cos ive become addicted so quick. I love it though, and chatting to you girls has really saved my sanity in these last couple of weeks. I was feeling so isolated at one point. Thank you all!
Jords: LOL thats the way girl!!! I have a mountain buggy swift and although expensive, is AWESOME, its light and can fit through anything, supermarket aisle and still sporty enough to have a bit of rough terrain.
As to getting close to my P's well...its on its way, I was doing really well before Xmas, took some prefessional lessons as DH and I were heading butts a lot but went from having a small Toyota Starlet to a Nissan Xtrail, so am a bit scared to drive around in the big one, on top of all the arguments it seems to cause between DH and I, but we will get there!! I think I know what you mean with DTD...I think I just see myself as a mum and not so much "a Lover" as such and that needs to change as DTD is part of a healthy marriage but I think its almost like an identity crisis where we are redefining who we are and that takes time too. Glad we can be there for your sanity, even if we are a cult
Sterla: thats good that Oli is now sleeping in his cot part time, it will make easier to transition him as opposed to changing it big bang, *I might do that for Sammy and her snuggle bed as she is almost too tall for it now. Thats so cool about the rattle, Sammy doesn't seem that interested in rattles, she likes animals, in books and talks to her stuffed friends all the time, especially a moose we named Marvin, its hilarious to watch her with him. Enjoy the pap, its alwys SO nice, isn't it?
Blip: Thats was a cool way to spend your stimulus, we are still waiting for ours but will go towards investments and getting a new sound system as well as paying for the Chrtistening party on the 12th of July. Thats sad about your friend that lost her mum right before she is getting married, I know I missed my parents when they couldn't see me walking down the aisle, its funny how some other cultures have got different traditions, I just hope she is happy. I also think that one can never truly explain the journey of giving birth to your child, its one of those moments where "you just had to be there!" Sounds like it was a good arvo. As for the sleep, well Sammy woke up at 12:30 and then again at 5am, not sure if that's got something to do with the spewing, she just seems a bit off. I'm sure it will all sorte itself out but I feel myself so blessed that I have a child that sleeps so well, I just hope it lasts!
AFM: I had THE WEIRDEST morning walk ever. DH is not working til tonight so I asked him to come on my work out walk with me and Sam. We normally have our standard route but forthe last couple weeks, I;ve been meaning to start walking up this giant hill to pump up the work out a biut but been delaying it and I had a wicked neck and back pain last week so have not really been walking. Dh convinced to go up it today and he got up to the top before I did and started chatting with this lady, who turned out to be a psychic. She basically gave us a reading on the spot. Today is my mom's birthday and she passed 2 years ago on my birthday of all things. The first thing she asked was Sammy's birthday, which we gave her and she said she was feeling someone with curly brown hair, very skinny and pretty tall that is with her all the time. That is pretty much my mom to a 'T" ( note I am short and chubby, not tall and skinny) she proceeded to tell us that Sam is a Rainbow Child ( look it up on the net its interesting) and has an orange Aura which will lead her onto the golden path. She said Sammy was a very special child who will be a leader and will aim to serve people ( not being a servant but serve to make it a better place) She will be impatient as a child as she is very smart and will have a hard time understanding why others don't "get it" right away and will want to move along. She went on like this for a good half an hour and talked about my dad that has also passed and said that DH used to be a roman centurion in the past life. So, needlessto say , it was a FULL ON experience, I had a few tears and was left somewhat stunned by this whole ordeal. She also said my mom would flicker a light in the next couple days to let know she is there and that this lady is for real. Can't wait to see whether this will happen or not.
Anyway, Bean is up, just thought I would share my weird morning with you ladies...Sammy is still chucking after almost every feed, I just feel her not being too well..call it mother;s instinct
Mxx
Far out Moose, that is so random! Everything happens for a reason I believe... of all days.. so weird, but great!!
The moose you got for Sammy isn't a lamaze toy by any chance? Winter has her moose aka Mr Moose aka Gloompty Gloompty aka Mortimer That she loves as well! It was the first thing she reached out to touch.
As for the pram... you know that woman who crashes into everything? Thats me... ran over a womans foot on the train the other week(stupid git saw me coming and didnt move) lol jeez...
Hope little Sammy gets better!
Oh and what was said about not picking up babies till they see tears??!!?! ARGH! I told MIL we were moving Winter to the cot next week and she said "oh she'll cry, but its good for her to cry it doesnt hurt them"
Moose: Far out - what an amazing thing to happen! Whether or not you believe in all that, to be told all that nice stuff about your baby is great !
I hope Sammy isn't sick or anything
Jords: The DTD thing is hard to get your head around. My DH and I have once and it wasn't pleasant, but I'm thinking we might need to try again soon before I get scared off! I'm so glad my DH isn't bugging me about it. I read another girls post today, and her DF is already getting it 2-3 times a week and wants more (and she only had her baby at the end of Feb!! ).
AFM: Well, back from my pap... fun...
I left Oliver with DH at his work while I went to the docs (he has a very friendly work place!), which was good to give DH a go looking after Oliver solo. He hasn't much cause I'm always around. It went well, though Oliver was just starting to get upset when I came to pick him up. I hoped we'd make it home without him cracking it, but no luck there... and with the crazy Friday afternoon traffic I knew it would take awhile to get home, so I pulled into a side street and fed Oliver in the car. It took awhile for him to settle, but eventually he fell asleep and we made it home in peace . Phew!
