Kell Ive commented you on facebook but will let you know im going up to mums tomorrow. Awwww bummer. I so want to come and spend some time with you girls. Next week for sure. Promise. Good Idea about the chart too. Will do that for sure.
Well callum did ok at the doc's. He still has the thickening in his atery and up until 6 months ago they operated but he said they more just watch and see how things go. I have to go back in 2 years. As he said if anything had to be done they would try and not do it before he is 5. So at least I dont have to think of that yet.
Going to mums tomorrow with the kids. BBl on Saturday.

Missy good to hear Callum's OK
Tan - good to hear about your FIL
sorry got to run..... little miss is due for a feed!
well its been a pritty productive day today. the nappies r washed and drying in the dryer (its raining) my folding is almost done the floors are moped i cleaned the kids bedrooms (it had been a while and it was so grose, isaac hides food) and we had a guy come and clean our rug and lounge suit. i might do the dusting and inside of my windows later.
my scar is sore today my stupid dog jumped on me yesterday and hit his paw right on it. it hurt so much. if it is still saw i might mention it to my Dr when i go back to get the pill.
Tannis- Ike is on penta-vite aswell, i notice if he eats food with presertives in it he is much naughter than usual. sugar doesn't affect him its all the other crap that goes with it. Ike has some pritty bad tanties too. DH and i have actually been talking about how to handle them over the past few days as its a daily problem sometimes several times a day. so far the naughty chair has been working at home but when we are out i have no idea. they say with older children you should tell them that when they get home they will have to sit on the naughty chair and even if its hours later you should follow thru and still make them, but i know isaac wouldn't understand that yet he is too young. at home its awsome 8/10 times it stops a tantie in its tracks, and thats just the threat of it. then we distract him and he forgets.
i sure would like to know what to do when a 2 year old has a tantie in the shops. there was one time that we were shopping isaac was walking with DH and we used a bench seat as a naughty chair and it worked but i would be damed if i was alone and he was having a wobbly in the pram, to get him out would be a huge mistake. lucky for me most of my shopping is done will kell or DH so ike has them to keep him company and occupied.
oh an ree the leash i was so against them but now i love it, if i am shopping with DH, mum or something we can leash ike up and he can look around and walk without fear of loosing him or someone taking him. you should try it.
Tennykins you are a great mum. oh crap i remember there have been days even before the twins when i have wonded why ike was so cranky and then i relised i had forgoten to give him dinner oops. if you wanted to you could demand feed anyway so it wouldn't matter if he went 5 hours he would cry when he is hungry.
Belle- sebastian is a clingy baby too. most nights we let him winge a bit because if he had his own way he wouldn't be able to put him down. the boys are only in infant size as they fit and i didn't want to buy more NB nappies as i am changing to cloth slowly and wouldn't use them. Tara seems like a perfect weight to me. the twins weigh the same as her and are almost 3 months old now.
but the twins won't sleep thru i wish they would but no such luck, don't worry tara is perfect.
well better run do something while the boys r asleep.
oh and i thought i would ask for some ideas. we need a holiday, resort preforably. but we only want to spend about $1500. any ideas. we went to fiji last time and it was $1200 including flights, maybe thailand, would you take babies there?
gunna try to get my sister or mum to come so that she can help with the kids.
anyway hi to all, will do more personals later if i get a chance.

Tan - I'm glad it wasn't a stroke Buderim Tavern is quite nice - not sure bout the kids room - went there before I had any..pmsl... send me a text to let me know what time you wanna meet up!!
Missy - good to hear about callum
Sum up of my bad day yesterday - DS woke at 11.40pm - and would not go back to sleep until 3.30am, then she was up at 6.00am - mind you we went to bed at 11pm after her last feed. Then he was cranky and whingy all day, she wouldn't settle at all the entire day, I started a new diet and was bloody hungry, got AF when not expecting it and ruined a pair of undies, banged my funny bone in the car and it friggin hurt like hell. All on 3 hours sleep. Was a gross day.
I hate typing with one hand so going to sign off now before any more personals.
Both kiddies are asleep woohoo so having my lunch while i type.
Kristy.. hmmm i prob wouldnt go to somewhere like Thailand with babies.. especially if theyre bottle fed. You have to be very careful with the water in places like that as it is iykwim. I guess it depends on what type of holiday you want. If you want to go overseas, somewhere that is gorgeous is New Zealand. But theres always the Gold Coast. Isaac would love dreamworld and seaworld.
Mel.. sorry to hear youre having a hard time hun. I hope things start to pick up for you soon.
Missy.. no worries hun! Have a nice time with your mum!
Tenny.. hehe oh dear. Oh hun.. with so much going on i think its only just normal and human error. Honestly ive had times where i think i forgot.. i cant even remember if i fed her when i was suppose to! lol..
Am going to go see about booking Jesse into day care starting next year. Hopefully he will be going to the same one as Kristy's son Isaac. Its funny the feelings you get when doing this.. i feel so bad as if im sending him away, but i know he will have a ball and it is for his own benefit. Oh im gonna hate the day he starts school!!!
Kel - thanks first drop off is the hardest - I cried the night before when DS had to go into care for the first time - its different putting him with other people, other than your IL's or own mother - veryyyy emotional.... (but it gets better!!)
kristy - yeah go for what Kel said - go the goldie - then i can drive down and meet all you guys - woohoo!!!!!!
Tenny - I'd say if he wasn't biatchin for the feed - he was doing pretty good. So don't worry bout it. At least you didn't leave him in the pram and fold it up. now.. if you did that.. hmmm....
Thanks again Kell, I'll look out for them when I go shopping Thurs. Jesse will have a ball at DC, it wasn't so bad for me as its my SIL that runs FDC.
Tenny: Your not a bad mother at all! I've done it a few times, I don't get hungry often so I don't think of it and Jayden rarely tells me he's hungry.
Kristy: Least I'm not the only one I guess. I'll look into one of those leashes see how he goes with it. Go to Hervey Bay, thats only 1.5hrs from here and about 2hrs from Mel I think.
Mel: I'll let you know about Saturday, I'll talk to Chris...It will be probably around 1.30/2pm is that ok? I know its not the best time for toddlers but the party is at 10am so we'll have to stay there for a bit then the footy starts at 2pm I think. Huge for your day yesterday! Sorry you had the 2 of them playing up for you. Ashlea is a bit out of sorts today but she had her needles, Jayden is not too bad (compared to yesterday).
Ashlea's needles went pretty good, she only whimpered for the 1st one and really cried for the 2nd one but as soon as the dummy went in she was fine. She has been pretty clingy since we've been home though, I have only just been able to put her down. Jayden fell asleep in the car on the way one (we were at a 3rd bday party at FDC) but then woke when I put him in bed and wouldn't go back to sleep, so nothing is getting done today. Diego is on now so I should go vacuum while he is occupied...don't think I'll be getting on the bike today Too hot anyway.
Well we have had a great day today! Isabel was such a good girl at Mothers Group cooing and smiling at all her new little friends. I had a pretty good night on my own to (DH is in Gold Coast for expo) he comes home on Thursday so I have another 2 nights on my own.
Mel - Oh you poor thing you did have a bad day yesterday, I hope that today has been a little easier on you all.
Kell - I was thinking of enrolling Isabel at kindy soon and I can't believe we are even thinking of that but it's so hard to get into them these days. I don't know if I will enroll her daycare as my mum will be looking after her should I decide to go back to work.
Kristy - If you want to go on a holiday NZ is just beautiful and almost always cheaper than going on holiday anywhere in Australia (unless of course you get a cheap deal).
Tenny - You're not a bad mum, we all forget to do things I normally try to stretch out her feed times for an extra hour just so I can get her to sleep longer at night. You're doing a great job sweet
Missy - Have a great time at your mums sweet we'll see you when you're back.
A BIG to everyone else. Hope you all have a good night!
