PJ: Good to see you still about . Like Dansta said, try not to worry about Summer's crawling . I have heard of so many stories where bub doesn't crawl till 13-14 months - but will then start walking the very next day. I think 6-10 months is average, so Summer is still well within that - and later isn't unusual either.
The pool I go to has a bunch of different pools - the baby pool is really shallow (0.35m) and is really warm, like a big bath. Then there are other pools that are 0.5m and 0.9m. That's where I take Oliver, but there are other deeper pools (lap pools, etc) there too. Definitely take Summer - sounds like she loved it, and it's great to get them used to the water so they're not scared later on.
Dansta: Sorry that your dinner didn't go well . What a stupid man in the gaming room! I hope your next dinner is better.
I know what you mean about the heat. Where I am in Tassie is having a weird late spring heat wave. Out of nowhere we've gone from having 18 degree days to 30 degree days! Too hot!!! I am so glad we have an air conditioner!!! I hope it settles down, and that this isn't the start of summer, cause if it is - I hate to think what the middle of summer is going to be like .
Still feeling good? Any ms or cravings, etc yet?
AFM: Hot here today - 31 degrees. Oliver and I managed to keep fairly cool though - just laid low at home with the air con going.
Oliver is a force to be reckoned with. He can now pull himself to standing on everything and so spends all day doing it. He does it in his cot now too, so everytime we go to get him after a sleep he's there standing up waiting for us, lol. He's also getting really good at scooting along the furniture - he'll stand up at the coffee table then move along the sofa... usually to get something like my handbag or the remotes. He's also perfected getting back on his butt from standing. It's all so fast!!!
sterla: i saw the pics on FB of Oli and they are soo cute! such a clever boy he is! a friend of mine still has her bub in her room and when she ignores him/cant get to him quick enough he's taken to throwing stuff off a chest of drawers i can see oli looking more and more like you though!
AFM: not been feeling too bad. as for cravings? i had one for french dressing last night. and carrot. I'll BBL - going shopping for a wedding gift today. FUN with one of the mums from MG hope every one stays cool!
Just a quick hello today as Im going to try and read instead of checking on BB every nap time. So... Hello!
Great to hear from you PJ, try not to worry about Summer seriously. There is a mum in my MG who was so worried about her Bubs development and now he is ahead of the pack 9 months on....
Sterla- I cant believe you have monkeys at your park!!! That is soooooooooooooo awesome!!!!
Dansta- Good to hear your feeling well. Cant wait to see bump pics! Any premonitions of the sex? I reckon your in for another boy..... Shall we all place bets?
Moose- How are you and Sammy? How was your wkend?
Ok OK IM GOING NOW!!! Have a good day everyone and Im going to try my hardest not to be back till tmrw
last night was a horrable night for DJ and I. DJ is teething. last time we had a few hours of gizzles sorted out by padole/ cold flannal to chew on. this time? nothing worked. i tried padole, teething gel,that brouers teething stuff cold flannal he wouldnt take a bottle so at 3am i went arg! and got one strait out of the fridge (so cold as) and he took almost the wholething, i'd tried room temp. but i guess he wanted it cold but i got really, really peeved at DH, he woke up around 1am got up closed two doors and went back to bed, he didnt bother seeing if i was dealing with it ok (last time i had a night like this was in hopsital with failure to thrive and i was alone for that too) and when i got to bed at 3:45am (i think it was) he had to be up at 5am so he turns his light on, knowing full well its BRIGHT as hell and woke me up, so i was fairly p i s s y with him. i got up shut DJ's door and he was like "sorry i didnt mean to wake you up" and i hissed back "well how about you lean to get dressed in the dark? or creep into the bathroom to get dressed, i had to do that when i started work early so i didnt wake you how come its hard for you todo that for ME when i've been up most of the night with OUR SON?" he said sorry and slinked off. i think he realised i was annoied he didnt come and see how i was. i better be off and see if DJ wil eat some water mellon
