Yeah, it does get quiet here on weekends. Blip, that's great about seeing your old high school teacher and friend. It's nice that you're so close with a teacher - I haven't seen any of them since high school (mind you, I don't live in the town I went to high school in, so that may have something to do with it, lol).
Had a fairly busy day, and last night. Last night some friends brought a game over. Oliver went down for the night at 7.30pm, so I was 'off duty' for the evening. We played old school Mario Party, but it took forever... we didn't finish playing till 11.30pm, and I was sooo tired by then. Then Oliver woke up at 3am and 5.30am, and then again at 6.30am... so I didn't get much sleep .
Today we went and saw an old family friend who is in hospital. He saw Oliver for the first time which was nice. He had a hold, but it was very awkward - I forget what it's like not being used to holding babies, lol .
Ooh, and this just happened!!! Oliver sat up on his for a few seconds! I'd just changed his nappy, and pulled him to sitting, and I carefully let go for a bit and he sat all by himself. A bit wobbly of course, but definitely on his own. I tried many times after that, and he kept doing it! Such a clever boy - he'll probably be sitting on his own no worries soon!
How is everyone else doing? I hope you're all well.
I completely forgot to mention... My DH donated blood on Friday through work, and passed out! He's donated once before and almost passed out then. This time he managed to get through the actual giving of blood, but passed out 5 minutes later. His boss ended up driving him home, so he had half of Friday off. Now he's caught a cold . We don't think he'll be giving blood again.
And Oliver has started waving! Little smartypants lol .
sterla: aww about the lack of sleep with Oli's feeding but its good to hear you had some 'time off'! as for you DH, i hope he feels better soon! poor thing passing out - i've done that too many times (and not due to boosehaha) and i know it sucks! and with Oli's waving and sitting up on his own!
ended up being 'peopled out' today! we had my cosens come over to drop off some selves for us then i got a phone call and one of the girls i saw friday she came over with her sister who is 38wks UTD. but shes 'over' it hah. kind of made me a little...green eyed...i miss having a bump! but it was a nice day. i think daz may have teeth coming though - his cheeks have gone pink 0_o he's also rather...dribbly and just...irratiable...so heres hopeing if it is - that its over quick!
i better go and make a bottle up...maybe that'll make him feel better!
hope every one is having a good day!
moose: YaY! your alive! ooo sounds fun planning sammys Christening!
Sterla: im glad MG is starting for you! you'll be the uber mum who knows everything!
AFM: daz was a gumpy bum last night...so we gace him a bottle...two stinky farts later...he was fine. when he woke up again we gave him a bottle...and then we tried him on that farix stuff (its not that brand but yeeah...) and we got video of it...my GAWD daz look like a lizzard/snake! haha his toung was going in and out in and out like mad...i almost cried i laughed that hard. but it didnt help the reflux like i'd hoped it would...but then agian DH wanted to give him a bath...so i dont think that helped :eyeroll: but i tired him again thismoring (after DH went to work) and he seemed ok with it...but who knows - im hopeing it'll help the reflux...it seemed to thismoring...who who knows!
oo i better go...daz is awake....hope every one is having a good day!
hope everyone is well, we have been soo busy over the last few days. Nana and Poppy are already down as my SIL is expecting any day now and they are staying for the Christening as well which is this coming Sunday. I also had a girl's night out this week-end and boy was it AWESOME!!! We went out for nibbles & wine at one of my friends place, followed by a dinner at an Indian restaurant which was very average but the wine and the conversation wasn't! we went back to my friends place afterwards as well and had some more wine! I got home at 12:30am LOL Thankfully I drank some water through it out but we had a really good time we decided we would do this quaterly. Unfortuntely, 8am mass on Sunday ( pre-christening for Sam) was a tad aearly and mummy was feeling a bit green but I managed. We then had yum cha at 11:30am with the godfather of Sam for his birthday, we got back home around 2 and once Sam went down for a nap, we all crashed really hard and the whole family had a 2 hours sleep.
I just weighed Sammy this am and she is a whoopin' 6.42kg which brings her almost to the 50th percentile on the chart. She is doing so well and it seems we have finally worked out what works for her. Her sleeping is almost back to normal, she seems to only wake up once now, anywhere between midnight and 3am but it seems that she then sleeps til 6am, her usual awake time. Solids are going really well, she LOVES sweet potato, her fave by far and we are going to try carrots tonight.
Will be back later for personals but Sammy is almost up and I have a stew to put on the stove before she wakes up.
