Babies Born January - June 2005 #9

[Trish]

Simone, sounds like you had a great New Year's. I haven'thad one like that in years. I know what you mean about it being cheaper out of nappies too. Already our nappies are lasting us longer which is great.

Sarah, have you had a look at Grosby shoes, they are made abit wider for bigger (fatter)babies feet. All of my kids have broad feet and as babies it was a buggar to get them shoes. And yes I do know what you mean about the boy v's girls shoes. Only now I can get from the other side Still have a hassle getting them for Noah though. Those Havianas are cute aren't they. I want to get Teh some but she hates anything between her toes.

Deb, By the time Gab's feet fit into thsoe thongs it will be winter again. LOL. I love your list of words for Gab, looks very cute. I can just see Gab stopping around in her croc's too. We just had them all on clearance in alot of the shops up here. I don't think there that popular out this way.

Melanie, sorry to hear that you aren't getting great sleep. Does it help to know that I still don't get it ?? I can symapthise(sp) with you though. I think it's a great idea to wait until language skills are more developed, that way there is less frustration. Tehya can tell us wee wee's or poo's but generally she just goes and sits on the potty by herself and does her business.

Fi, Ok we have gone crazy on shoes. I love shoes and my love for them has passed on to Tehya. She has heaps of them. Some expensive ones, and some cheaper shoes. She has slides, sandles, suede PP boots (too small now )and a pair of Nike's. I don't mind spending the extra on her runners, they have great support in them for growing feet.
Hope Jenna and Hamish are going well.

Tanya, great to see you in here. WOW at the girls only being a kg apart. Tehya doesn't say 1 either. Not sure of her excuse though. How's the pregnancy going ? Hope your feeling well.

Teh had a couple of good stacks yesterday, first in the morning she was running in the loungeroom and fell over, she cut inside her mouth above her front top tooth. She has a nice blood gum there now. The again in the afternoon she went running out the back with the bit that you empty from the potty, full of wee and fell over on the cement. Of course her hands were full so she skinned her knee and forehead, not too bad though. Don't ask what she was doing with the potty though, I think she was taking it to pour it outside. LOL.

She is still going great guns on the potty, gee that kid can wee. No wonder we go through so many nappies.

I took Noah to see Happy Feet yesterday, not a bad movie although I think I enjoyed it more than him in parts. He wanted to go home 30 minutes into it.

Mark has just told me we're going to Ikea today. YAY I love ikea, shame I have no $$ to spend there.

I redid Tehya's site the other night. Gave it a new front page, made it look prettier again. I lost my babies online one when I had no puter and was never bothered to redo one until the other night when I was bored.
