    Hi all

    Havent been in here 4 a while as i have done the big move and what not and have been quite ill.
    Been getting severe migraines and becoming a mental case when i get my period so am off for catscan and hormone test,had prob with hormones b4 preggers so need to see a specialist as ive had my thyroid out and its all linked with your pituatary gland..lets just say ive had one now 4 days so bad that hubby has had to stay home from work,that and my size dd-e boobs dont help,i have to lose weight and soon,though i dont wanna yet as i bought the most gorgeous dress to wear to friends wedding and nixon's baptism so will wait til the day after that then start the diet n excercise.
    Nixon is been a dream...
    He just loves his solids,we are on bottle and organic rice cereal,i have just bought a new food processor so will start making baby food for him as well as the organic shelf stuff from supermarket,i refuse to feed him the normal baby food they sell.
    He is sleeping like a trooper,down at 7pm,feed about 1am give or take and sleeps thru til 7am...Solids have made a huge diff,we give him bottle and solids at 630pm and it works better than just milk....he still catnaps during the day but by about the 3rd round of catnaps thats it he out for 2 hours or so,doesnt worry me as long as he sleeping at night.
    He is still quite small compared to most babies,tho hes very long and thin,long legs and arms but eats real well,the reflux is settling now we on solids..He did very well re-settling after our house move,hes a bit cranky lately but i think teething about to start as hes drooling,red cheeks n cranky pants.chewing on everything...hes a funny happy spunky little kid,still wont sleep unless swaddled and arms in,if he gets em out he wakes up sooking til u put em back in...ill be swaddling him til hes 18 at this rate..lol
    We gonna start swimming lessons next month,his uncles have paid for him to have lessons for his baptism present..we get him baptised august 23rd,am looking forward to that..
    anyway hope you all doing well,ill pop back in soon,cant keep up with u all,,,
    cheers sonya

    So quiet in here!

    We've been having an interesting week. Jared is now sitting up by himself, which is really helpful. Although, I am a little reluctant to leave him sitting by himself without me in the room just in case he has a fall. His sleeps have all changed and now he's sleeping better in the day, but his nights have gone downhill to only a five hour stretch at the longest. I preferred it when he didn't sleep during the day and gave me seven hours at night! Today has been different again though as he's gone back to catnapping during the day.

    Oh well, I've gotta go. It's getting to that time of the day where I have to try and juggle two kids, baths and dinner all at the same time!

    Hope you're all well

    Soph, what exactly is croup? Doesn't sound good at all. Hope you guys get away on holidays alright.

    Yep, J is really steady now sitting up and I left him for a few minutes today and he was fine. Ben sat up by himself really early too, right around this age but then didn't crawl until 9 months old, so I'm hoping for the same thing with Jared! I'm not ready for him to start getting into stuff just yet!!!

    Hello everyone!

    WOW it is quiet in here but I guess we are all enjoying our little ones!

    Dis: Happy 5 months to little J! Isn't he a clever boy sitting up already!

    Soph: You seem to be having a tough time with sickness at the moment. Croup is a terrible thing and I have fingers and toes crossed that you all stay away from the hospital. Hope everyone gets well soon.

    Caidens, MelA and Gypsy: Nice to read that things are going well and you are enjoying your little boys...they certainly are precious.

    Ren; You have done a wonderful job with little Ava and your breastfeeding issues (says the breastfeeding pro he he). You should very proud of yourself.

    To everyone else: A BIG HELLO!!

    AFM: It's Miss Z's bday today. A BIG 2 years old.....where did that time go? We are having a teddy bears picnic on the weekend so that should be fun. DD and little man are interacting so well and their favourite game is peek-a-boo. The giggling and laughing that goes on is hilarious. Dash is up on his elbows and knees rocking away, sometimes moving in reverse he he.....so not long now. He even holds his head up in the crawl position so now he only needs to get onto his hands and he's off!! He doesn't need to crawl anyway because he can roll to wherever he needs to go...just need to watch where we are walking atm as he comes rolling like a barrel down a hill!! So, baby proofing very soon in this house (again). I am worried about sultanas and the like on the floor from DD so I think it will be harder this time around. Time will tell.

    Well nothing more on the weightloss. Having really been trying. We have been busy doing a big house cleanout so it is back on next week after plenty of birthday cake.

    So will leave it there til next time. Take care everyone!

    Orange, Happy Birthday to little Miss Z!!!! I hope she doesn't get right into the terrible twos for you. Ben was in the terrific twos until this week and now he's decided he will question all our decisions and choices for him We're hearing 'No' an awful lot. He's always been such a compliant little guy so it's taking some getting use to!
    Have fun at the Teddy Bear's picnic
    I've decided to do something about my weight now too. I'd like to lose around 10kgs. I hit an all time high on the weekend so am trying to beat my sugar addiction. I gave up all my biscuits and ice cream as of Sunday. Have been having shocking headaches until today, which was the first day without a withdrawal headache. Seriously, my addiction was really, really bad! I was a two pack a dayer - being biscuits not cigarettes! I put on 5kgs in two months! Enough is enough so it's time to get back to a healthier weight

    Hi everybody else. Hope you're all well and your bubbas are all thriving.
