[_JeSs_]

nik - yer hes been the same 2day... was talking to mum and she said it gets worse hehe, when they hit about 7-8 months they have a real clingy time apparantly..

april - yer it was a bit late for him 2 stay but i kinda wanted him to lol, hes so supportive..

bindy - i spent my baby bonus on bills ect, few things for Jaylen, lots of new clothes for me lol, fixed my car, new fone, new computer, just stuff i needed lol

nice to hear from u maz!

well better go hes stirring again.. hmm hes usually sleeping by now!

[maz]

ah cant catchup on whats been so will go from my last post hehehhe

OH Bindy - I am so jealous that she smiled at you, how truely gorgeous!! I am hanging for it. It makes up for all the crying they do. as for the $$ - we had to buy the third row seats for our explorer so we put it towards that and buying him a new wardrobe. I am also a firm hater of people having children jsut for the money. My nieces (the 2 of them aged 25 and 21) both had their children for the $$ and the pension. Makes me so mad. I dont talk to them or my sister (their mum)...she told them that its ok to sleep with a married man as long as you dont get caught!!! grrr havent spoken to them for 7 years and have no intensions either.
I cant understand them ... I just dont know how people can justify the $$ for a child...its totally disgusting, immoral and degrading. AHhh getting of my soap box now

April - a weekend away - that sounds so nice ahhh was it exciting? did you take heaps of pics?

NIk - I have to look at your pics to see if there's one of her in a dress..I lvoed doing the same with Vy. OH Noosa - I miss living up that way..I use to live in Bundaberg and I miss the life style sometimes. Jed will never move (typical farm boy)

Jess - they cling now, wait until their about 18 motnhs, they dont want a bar of us, they get all independant and have tantrams when they dont get their way..well thats Vyolett at the moment. Are ou still BF? or have you gone totally formual?

Kate - might have to put thursday on hold yet hun...my inlaws are coming to the hospital and they always want to meet my friends...drives me insane cause they take over conversations..so might be best to leave it to another time. will call you

Queen hun were are you hiding these days and Tiff ???

Had a really bad night with Madeleine, she normally sleeps through and has been for weeks now but she kept waking up and squirming in the bed so much last night and had a feed at 3am which was a bit unusual. She has a bit of a congested nose and didn't sleep at all through the day yesterday. Could this have contributed to her restless night sleep, anyone know or have experienced this? Then I awoke at 7.30am and there was poo everywhere! All over the sheets and doona cover and it has gone onto the mattress (silly me forgot to put the mattress protector on the other day LOL!)...so I cleaned her up, put the sheets and doona cover in the wash, hung it all out and now it's raining! DRATS!!

She didn't poo yesterday at all...perhaps that's why she had such a restless night, I'm stumped to know what caused it!

Sorry for the selfish post....

Morning ladies,

Should be doing chores but couldn't help myself and came on here. Not much news here. Amy has officially had three days of only waking once at night so I'm crossing my fingers that it's now a routine! She's 10 weeks today. Amazing how quickly time is going.

Maz - haven't had a chance to take pics of Amy in her dresses yet cos I only put the first one on her yesterday to see if it would fit and it did! I promise to take one of her in her next dress hehehehe. I don't understand people who have babies for the money. It's not really that much money when you think about it....

Jess - Hope today is better for you. It could be the heat....could be anything really....a growth spurt.....Amy had a ridiculously unsettled day yesterday. not crying all day but just whinging all day and wouldn't sleep. Things change every day don't they!?

Bindy - You poor things. Poor Madeleine. I know that Amy has some times when she's really unsettled for a while and then she does a big poo and she's fine. Amy doesn't enjoy her bowel movements that's for sure. Sounds like that's what happened with Madeleine. Poor little thing. Dam'n the rain! That's just happened to me too!! Bummer.....

Well, nothing much else to report here so may as well go do my chores. Have a great day ladies xxx Nik and Amy

OMG Ladies the last 3 days Sophie has been averaging between 2-4hrs between feeds her bottles are 160-170mls she doesnt always take the whole lot other times she does but the last 2 nights shes had a feed at our normal dinner time (6-8pm) and within 2 hours shes taken another bottle the 1st night she took 70mls and last night she took 160mls! and last night she slept from 9-9.30pm until 4.30am when Chris got up to get ready for work couldnt believe it!. She been such a garbage guts lately which i've just put down to the growth spurt.

We went out yesterday to watch our (Chris') newphew play trial rugby league games and it rained for about 10mins i ended up getting soaked Sophie slept the whole time in the pram and missed it all. I put a toy on her pram this dog/horse playgro thing and she was mesmorised by it she was giggling and smiling at it, i hadnt put toys on her pram before now because shes slept in the pram the whole time we've been out lately shes been waking up while were out.

Jess- i hope for your sake you're experiencing the last of the heat. Sorry to hear Jaylen has been unsettled for you, it might just be the heat or he just wants lots of cuddles.

Nik- Arent dresses so much more prettier once they are on little girls. i've only put Sophie in 1 dress so far when she was still in 000's, not sure how many 000's dresses i have i'll have to check the wardrobe. I put Sophie in her 1st pair of jeans the other day she looked so cute they were a little short actually.

Bindy- i'm sorry to hear you had a bad night with Madeleine. Sophie doesnt poo everyday and when she does it doesnt trouble her now since we changed formulas (from s26 to Nan 1 Gold from birth). We spent half our baby bonus on the rent & the rest on stuff for Sophie, shopping & other bills. I would never in my life think about having a baby just for the money & i look down upon those out there that are doing its just wrong.

Maz- Good that you found a spare 5mins to come and post. Did that money show up in your account? Thanks again for that stuff, if we can help out in any other ways let us know.

April- nice one on the weekend away. Not sure when we'll first venture away from home yet. Can i ask what did Bodie sleep in? Porta cot or something else curiousity killed the cat.....

Kate- How was the GP??

Well going to find something to eat and make a cuppa.

Ok I really need to vent. Just got off the phone to MIL and I'm really upset. I told her that we were probably going to Noosa and she got offended because it means that she can't come around and see Amy. I don't want to have to run things past her every time we go somewhere just in case she wants to see Amy. I said that she'd see her on Saturday and she said "Once a week isn't enough. It might be for you, but it's not enough for me". She's just got no tact that woman. She frustrates me so much. And I don't know why, but I'm so upset by what she said. I knew this would happen. DH and I have always just done what we want to do. We've never run things past people before we've done it ie going away for the weekend, we've just done it. I don't want to have to take MIL's feelings into consideration if we feel like getting away as a family. Geez, I understand that Amy is her grand daughter but far out. God, my family is so much easier to deal with than DH's. SIL is going back overseas on Sunday and MIL said "SIL needs to see Amy too before she leaves" as if I've been stopping her from seeing Amy. It's not my responsibility to invite people over. If they want to come, they can give me a call. I have enough to worry about at the moment. I just feel like crying.....I don't want this to become a common theme. I will end up losing it. She's our daughter and we'll do what we like as a family....OUR FAMILY which doesn't include the grandparents for EVERYTHING!! Ok, I'm done venting. Thank you for reading......sorry.

Jo - go Sophie on the growth spurt! Jeans would look soooooooooo cute! I love dresses on little girls. Just adorable. Amy's starting to be interested in her toys too. So fun.

Ok, I'm going now. I'm posting way too much at the moment. xx Nik and Amy
