mine was pretty good actually. Saturday morning we slept in and then made out way to our naturopath appointment... but we were early so we swung past thehairdresser and made appointments for both me and dh for next saturday. (I might finally be getting that mohawk i want!!!) then I popped over the road to my most favourite of all clothes shops, a place called Queen, and I finally found a pair of trousers!!! so I bought them and wore them out of the shop! I've been struggling with trousers since Luxxe was born because I don't fit into my before baby pants YET (i'm determinned to wear them again eventually) so I've been wearing the one pair of maternity pants I had. THey are completely too big - even when I was pregnant- and I have to literally either hold them up or kepp puiing my pants back up every few minutes. ONe day I had groceries inmy hands and I didn't have a spare hand and by the time I got back to the car they were around my knees!!!
so finding new trousers is totally exciting!!! and they are just relaly cute nice dress up or wear every day black trousers! VERY HAPPY!!!
right tso then we went to the naturopath. Luxxe was sleeping so I took the first appointment. I actually saw Dh's naturopath this time and she was GREAT!! I think i'm going to swap. basically this dreaded lurgy I have is still going and she gave me some herbal tonic (SO FOUL TASTING!!!) to help clear out my ears and then in 2 weeks time I go back when I'm better and we start working on my complete exhaustion. She said the reason I keep waking up all night, even though Luxxe doesn't, is becuase my adrenal glands are all befuddled by my exhaustion and are firing off at random times... like the middle of the night, which is why I can be int he middle of a dream and then just be bolt upright awake for no reason. It makes sense I guess. anyway - if the herbs work and it gets all fixed I'll be super happy.
after my appointment with the naturopath I had my massage. It was with the same woman I had all my pregnant massages with. she is so good. I told her I wanted a massage that would get things moving. kind of relieving and envigurating massage that
would make me feel good as well as relaxed.
well she did it! she got all the knots out as well as made me feel a bit jazzed. so I'm going to start going more regularly.... mayby every 4-6 weeks.
then it was Dh's appointment with the naturopath and then we went home and had a late lunch.
Oh the naturopath said to stop solids with luxxe for a little while longer... like another month or so. just because her eczema is playing up a bit and I'm not sure which food it triggering it. so I'm going to give her another dose of the eczema stuff and fix it up again and then pay more notice to which food effects her skin.
Sunday - we just stayed home and cleaned.
I'm still deaf becuase of the blocked eustation tube. It seems to be getting a tiny bit better but also worse at the same time. now both ears are totally blocked and I pretty much can only hear stuff that happens right next to my head. Apparently last night the dogs were barking for over an hour and I didn't hear a thing. :eek:
my normal GP keeps saying there's nothing wrong that he can see, the naturopath said it all looks pretty painful in my ear..... so today I"m going to another GP to get a third opinion about whether to take the antibiotics the first GP gave me.The naturopath reckons not to take them and that the herbs wil help. they do seem to have make a difference....but i'm just worried that it won't help if there is an infection.
I have to say that I"m never been so affected by anything as losing my hearing. it totlaly has messed me up! I relaly don't like not being able to hear. I miss hearing Luxxe's noise and talking and all her squeaks and coos.
so I just want to get it sorted ASAP.
ok what else..... the ANTS!!!! well they are mostly all out of the house. when my folks were here they covered all the surfaces with eucalyptus oil and that seems to have upset the ants and they haven't been back in the nursery or kitchen. In my bathroom however.... where we didn't put any oil, they are still visiting. Dh put some more ant rid out the front yesterday. hopefully they will DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! now.. I really hate them.
we found a new organic flour/bread mix yesterday and this new bread is so much better.... it's come out more fluffy and spongy. the other bread was very heavy. Tomorrow I'll try a whole grain version.
I just found a whole heap of clothes for Luxxe that I forgot I'd put asaide til she was "bigger" well all those big clothes are size 00 so I'm going to have to dress her up in her fancy clothes everyday so she gets use of her outfits. It's amazing how much clothing she got given.
Hey what are the babies most favourite toys? Luxxe loves her Gus the guppy and tucker the turtle and her fisher price fishy that spins around but has a suction cap so it sticks to the high chair table. I also got her a toy mobile phone that she was chew but when you press the buttons it makes animal noises. these are her favourites.... oh and one little soft teddy I call Mr pink. I'm thinking of buying something new... so I would love to hear what is popular at your house!
Oh and JO!!!!! are you back at work today!!!! and you here!!!! HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOo we missed you... tell us all about miss Bridie!!
