I read up every now and then, usually when i'm feeding Larissa. Its so difficult to do that and type one handed! Tris has gone back today after 5 and a half weeks off and its actually so nice! When hes home he demandsmy attention as much as Larissa does but then when I'm feeding her he still goes and does his own thing and just so happens to only go out and see his friends in the evening when shes suffering with wind so by the time shes settled its time for me to sleep. Thank God that once shes down, she sleeps for about 7 hours!
Is anyone doing anything nice for valentines day? I think we'll just give it a miss. Anyone know someone affected by the fires or floods? Must be awful for them!!!
Happy 1 month old to Zach! Can't believe it either Kim, its gone heaps fast, wish it would slow down, knew it would be this way after waiting all that time for them to arrive!!
Harley has been a good boy today! Charlotte has been pretty good as well, no sleep for her as we got home around 2.30, so bit late for that, so shes just happy to play. Put a lay by on for her winter clothes at Big W as they have a baby sale on! Can't believe my baby girl is in a size 3!! Only cos she is so tall! And a bit solid, actually shes the size and length of a average 4 year old!! So got one tall girl on my hands!
Oh I can't wait till Harley sleeps a good 7 hours straight, I wanted to go down just after him last night, but Rob wanted some time for just us 2. So couldn't complain bout that. So went to bed just after 10... so wasn't to bad!
It has been pretty quiet in here, but understandable with bubs and also some of us already have other kiddies!
I don't know anyone affected by the fires, but the town of Marysville was the first ever town I lived in, so the first ever house I lived in is no longer standing, would of been about 146years old. Also the hotel where my dad worked is no longer standing
Both my sisters are up north but been ok with the floods. Its amazing that we have one extreme up one end of Australia and the other down south! The rain needs to go to Victoria!
Glad to hear Harley was a good boy today Deb. Wow on Charlotte being a size 3...Chelsea is in a 2. But she is short and far to skinny....size 2 are sometimes to big on her....she shares her clothes with Jasmine LOL....oh a Big W sale....always on when we have no money!
We are not doing anything for V day Steph, but hard with 3 kids to go out. We might watch a movie or something when the girls go to bed..and then have a quite one in bed once Zach has had his last feed
Fires were close to me...3 min drive away in fact...the street the girls FDC carer lives on, the houses burnt down...so she was lucky hers is still standing, but smells so bad of smoke.
Argh...Chelsea is now on antibiotics for her burns...plus antibiotic cream....and im back to the drs again for the next 2 days....i have been everyday now since Friday last week
Just popping in quickly - my poor little man has had a cold. It's so heartbreaking seeing him sneezing and coughing and snuffling! Needless to say he has been really unsettled and no one is getting much sleep around here. He seems a little better today thankfully. It's my dads 60th party tomorrow night and I am looking forward to showing Harrison off to everyone, so hopefully he is feeling better.
Kim, I hope Chelsea is better real soon!
Deb, Hopefully Harley is a little more settled for you today.
Hello everyone else, hope you are all busy enjoying your bubbas
Hi girls,
I had a wonderful day yesterday. Steph and Larissa came and visited us and we spent the day just hanging out chatting and relaxing. I took some photos of the kids together. Larissa is such a good baby and so beautiful, and Steph is so smitten with her its lovely to watch. Thanks again Steph for all those clothes and the high chair. It will be fun going through it all.
On another note I think JD may be starting to improve with the Zantac. The last couple of days he hasn't taken the usual time to settle (the screaming and crying seems to be lessening). I just pray that we have found the solution for his Reflux. I am starting to enjoy him now. I dont know if we will ever bath him again cause he loves the shower so much. DH had another one with him last night and he was so relaxed. It was lovely watching them bond.
I'm glad he was good for you last night! Larissa slept wonderfully, I think having a busy day wore her out! Don't worry about the clothes and stuff, its better than somebody makes use of them than just having them stuck in the garage for ever! Can't wait for you to put your pictures on facebook... If I'd thought about it I'd have bought my camera!
I think tomorrow we'll pop down to a big W and spend some money Hurrah!
It's a shame the weather is awful today, we went to have lunch on the beach and it was ruined!
For colds, you can use the Fess little noses, and put the saline up their nose and suck out the boogers that way. They don't like it, but it helps them breath and then you all get some sleep.
Judd seems to have lot's of boogers and I use this on him and he doesn't have a cold!
I'm using Zantac too now Amanda. Seems to be helping him quite a bit, although I don't want to jinx it. Saw Dr for our 6 week check (a bit early) and told her about his screaming, and she said to try Zantac and if it is silent reflux, then it'll work and give it a good week. That was Thursday and he was sooo good today! Has started to take more in his bottles, goes longer between them and actually goes to sleep in his cot without much settling and stays there for a couple of hours! Oh, and he is going about 5 hrs at night between his last and first bottles!!!!
Yay, hope it's not a fluke and he keeps this up. He's also more happy to lay on the floor and play without crying and needing to be held upright. Fingers crossed
Had my next lot of bloods today for thyroid & iron levels. Getting my carpal tunnel test done next Weds to see if that's what i have and if so, how bad it is. Will know the results next week. More worried about my hands than my Thyroid at this stage.
Hope you all had a good valentines day. My DH did some shelves in the laundry for me, I also got a new handbag and some !! Got all 3 kids to have a sleep at the same time so we took the opportunity
Enough of that, take care and keep smiling.
