:ROFL: Dressups.
I guess it is attention seeking, hey.
So far so good with not destroying them. It makes me so angry though. :wall:
I've been so suprised lately at the way Elijah has been with having Hayden around.
He's really really good with Hayden. Kisses & cuddles and everything. You know how some children try and do things to the baby cause they're jealous? I was thinking Elijah was going to be like that, but not one little bit.
( and YAY! I've reached 1,000 posts. What a coolcat, I am. jkjk. I'm such a forum freak. )
Tenny.. hmm id say hes taking it because of Hayden's smell on them. Maybe its like a new toy to him? new smell = new toy? But yeh maybe what Mel said.. because Haydens getting this attention, the dog may think if he takes all the clothes (the smell of that "new" thing) it will get rid of the baby iykwim? How cute of Elijah! I was the same, thinking Jesse would get jealous.. but hes nothing but gentle with Keira. Its so lovely to see hey. Makes your heart melt.
ROFL love it, my baby keeps knocking the dummy out of her mouth and waking up and I can tell she is just exhausted!:
Seriosly - this goes out to all the babies in the world - if your mummy knows you are tired and is rocking you - GO TO SLEEP!!!!!
Phew - what a day - where did it go! We had Beth's 6-8 week appointment this morning.... she is 5kg, length 57cm, head circ 39.2cm and just under 75th percentile.
And I also got a copy of her discharge letter from RPA, which I never got a copy of before (we should have got a copy, obviously it just slipped through the cracks). It was good to have that because it says she only had 'mild respiratory distress' and that she had good respiratory effort at 7 minutes... I was happy about that because from what the Bear said I thought she didn't try to breathe for like 45 minutes.
Went out shopping with my stepmum and baby sister, which was fun and managed to get one load of washing on but the weather is crap so my sheets won't be going on the line today!
Tenny LOL at your dog stealing the clothes and playing dressups! PMSL
bugger it, where did the wave smilie go? :wall: now I can't wave at everyone I missed with personals, so to everyone I missed - :thumbsup:

I wrote a long post earlier today but walked away from the computer and DS1 cane and started clicking the mouse and deleted it.

Bell- why don't you like your hair? i know a bob can be hard work i always ask a client if they are willing to blow dry their hair every day before i cut one. unless you have curly hair that is.
kell- love the cake, you should do a course and go professional it looks better than the one i bought for ikes 1st birthday. wanna meet up on friday i'm meeting Jess and charlie 4 a coffee.
Pixie- i'm glad beth was good at the party. we will be taking our boys to a party in a couple of weeks it starts at 6pm so i hope ike will be ok; there will be a heap of kids there so we will just have to pray he goes ok staying up till midnight. and beth's weight gain and growth sounds great, i need to weigh my boys again too.
oh 3 mins left
missy- glad the fence is up. but shame you got burnt, do you have alo? summer is almost here again.
ok time is up BBL or maybe tomorrow.
:loveshower:love to all...
Oh wow ive missed so much. Ok im sorry if I miss some of you in the personal department.
Kristy I know im silly getting so burnt. I do have a alo plant, well I think it is...lol...Ill have to have a looksy. So Kell and Kristy, who's house this week. I really still cant have it here if you want to go out side. If we stay inside I can have it here. I can only do Thurs or Fri this week. Let me know what you want to do??
Kell hun hope your well. Did I miss some thing. Who has eczma?? Im so excited about having the kids spending some time together.
Pixie well done on your little ones growth. Well done!! How is the bear going anyways.?? Havent seen him in a while!
:o tenny wowo on the post hun....I thought i was a feak with the amount of messages...now your up there too...heheh. done on the 1000's. Also Tenny my dogs chew up everything too. DH left the empty baby bottle out here last week and when I got up the dog had chew'd the teat up...Then I went outside to the laundry and the bibs had been chew'd up too. Bloody bogs...
SW how you doing?? Hope your well
Arimeh hey ya hun. Dont you hate it when the baby wakes(:shhh:) the rest of the house...gggrrrrrrrr:doh:
Hi Belle, Zee, tannis, hmmmmmm I have no brain. Im sorry for the ladies ive missed. And I know I have!! Sorry ;)
Well Liam is smiling so much now its so cool. He is cooo'ing and goooo'ing lots too but so soft..He is so so cute. I just love watching him. Callum is talking heaps too and very funny. His latest is if I say NO you cant do that he says ( yes I do that ) The other is he says ( I happy) or ( mummy happy) then jumps up and down screaming and clapping...lol He is such a big boy now. He is going great guns with his toilet training, does lots of wee's on the potty but has only done 2 poo's. Poo's is abit harder but we will get there.
Well have a great night all.
Mel: I had a great time and loved meeting your beautiful family! How did the itti bitti wash up? LOL I did feel your pain when A went into the water with it PSML!! Great to hear its not the measles!! Although eczema I'm sure would be a PITA least its not as serious as what measles could be, esp in such a young baby...so do you think it is eczema? Hows your dog too? I have photoshop, I can resize the pics and post them. Crayons not only taste great but also look great on tiles, tables and windows!
Belle: I love your new haircut....I'm not so sure about mine, I have to straighten it and wear makeup otherwise it doesn't look right.....and I have all the time in the world to do that every morning LOL
Tenny: Thats great Elijah is back to his usual self...Jayden is a ratbag whether he is sick or not LOL. We haven't had any trouble with the pets, but they are all outside these days so they haven't got the oppertunity to go near A's clothes, I think it could be an attention thing too maybe. I have been surprised over J too how good and mostly gentle with A, he is a real mummy's boy and hated me even looking at another baby (he pushed a little girl off my knee on xmas day). Thats great Elijah loves his little brother!
Tasia: Hope you are feeling better!
Mez: Hows Izzy going in her cot? Have you got a monitor in there? Hows Izzy's rash, did you find out what to use? QV wash and moisturisers are great for babies skin, I used something else for Jayden it started with C, can't remember though but it was great!
Kell: I have the super thin muslin wraps....I love them! I usually only use it after A's dream feed at midnight but I tried her today at midday to make her sleep longer and I got 3.5hrs out of her! Not sure if it was coincidence or because of the wrap. We haven't got a mobile yet and Jayden had a star lightshow thing which he loved. I got the Gossemar Kidsline cot sheet set, doona etc so I want to get the matching mobile or something with butterflies.
SW: GL with not swaddling...I can see how they can be dangerous but I do know a few ppl that wrapped their babies until 6mths or more....not sure what we will do, play it by ear I guess. Jayden was never swaddled, he hated it and alway escaped.
Rach: Aww denim dress!!! How cute! OMG on the walk....10kms is more than enough!
Missy: Woohoo on the fence! Hope the sunburn has eased a bit...I used to get so burnt a few yrs ago that I couldn't walk! I try not to get that burnt anymore. We are TT'ing here too, you wouldn't believe the amount of wee I had to clean up today...my fault I should have been paying attention. J is going great guns with it too but no poo's yet (well 1 a while ago), he is also insisting on going to the big toilet which surprises me as last week he had no interest in either toilet or potty!
As I have already said we had a great time with Mel and her family! We had gone down there for my nephew's 1st bday which was really good too and the resort we stayed in OMG!! It was nice. We got the main bedroom which had a king size bed, huge WIR, huge ensuite with a cnr spa (which I enjoyed immensely!!). The pools were gorgeous (not that I went in), the lagoon pool was the best but it wasn't heated and way way too cold for me!! Sunday we went shopping for a few hours which was great as we don't have as many shops in Bundy, and I left Chris and Jayden at his sisters so no whinging boys to deal with. Ash was great while we were out, just slept most of the time except when she had a shop assistant in Myer admiring her she woke and was just being cute as ever haha She got whingy toward the end cause she was hungry. We left the sunny coast I think just before 4pm and both kids slept the entire 3hr trip home!
Well this post is long enough....better clean up and go to bed
ETA: Here's a pic of all of us... https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums...89&ppuser=4086
Tan & Mel... oh thats such a cool photo!!! Oh i wish we all lived closer!!!!!!!!!!!
Tannis.. i love your ticker! Its so pretty! Yeh all my wraps and stuff i got from my sister and the muslim ones are great! Especially for those hotter nights. Plus Keira seems to have a thing for holding a blanket to feel secure.. so when in her rocker and its hot i just put one of those over her also. SOunds like you had a lovely trip!
Missy.. lol no one, well sw's DD and DH.. but was just a passing comment to Mel that kinda was made into something bigger than it kinda was. Oh yay for the cooing and smiling! He may just be a very laid back little person. Maybe good with callum being so on the go! I hope Keira is! After Jesse like that too! lol.. though i can see already she is a fussy pot and knows what she wants! Oh thats great for the wees on the potty! Im yet to buy one. Not that i think Jesse would understand yet. But he does squat whenever hes doing a poo.. so might be a time, come summer to just have him in his nappy around the house and whip it off when he squats.
Kristy.. yep we'll be there! Will be great to see Jessie and cute little Charlie again!
Pixie.. oh great stats! Oh thats a releaf too. Yeh when things like that happen it feels like time goes so slow and it happens forever.
Mel.. get your butt on msn woman.. well sometime!
Went out to that day care place and its full for next year! doh! But am on a waiting list. Am going to have a drive by another today on the way to the shops. Also no luck with the mobile grrrr... so going to go to my local BigW where i saw one there i liked.. better still be there! lol or we're going for a drive to Penrith!
Just waiting for sleeping beauty to wake up! Suppose i can feed Jess in the mean time. Oh well so much for my sleeping through boy.. was up 3 times last night.. ahh well.. was nice while it lasted.
Kell: Yeah I love my new ticker, I am going to try and do a new 1 each month. Bugger about the DCC, hope you find one today. I'm still waiting for Jayden to wake up, Ash woke at 6.15am and she is going back to sleep on me now. Jayden will sleep through for a while then start waking again, he woke once last night.
I fed Ash earlier last night (10.45/11pm) and that got her through until 6.15am, I might try and do that all the time now because it is so much easier to have her fed and me have my brekki before Jayden wakes up....He'll probably start getting up earlier!
We are having another quiet day today, I am still pretty exhausted from the weekend....Not as bad as yesterday though so I might get some house work done. I did do 2 loads of washing yesterday and swept the floor....gotta resweep today and hopefully mop.
Ash is asleep now so I'l put her back in her bassinette and have a shower....Woohoo a shower before 9am!!
Oh I worked out (a while ago now) that Jayden and Ashlea are 2yrs, 2mths, 2days and all but for a few minutes 2 hrs apart! I think 2 will be my lucky number now!
Morning all
OH WOW ive just woken up to the smell of bread cooking. My mother gave me her bread cooker as she doesnt use it anymore and melissa set it to start cooking 2 hrs ago. Oh beautiful smell. mel digging into it already...lol
Tannis what a wonderful photo hun. Just love it. Isnt so funny looking at them when they do wee's how excited they get. Well Callum does...lol. Callum wont do it on the toilet yet but goes on the potty.
Kell oh ok cool thought id missed some thing. I just love this time with all the smiles. Jesse will let you know when he is ready. I did it to callum about 3 months ago thinking he wouldnt go on the potty and he did. So he was about, 29mnths. Jesse is abit young at the moment I think but you just never know.
awwww bad luck about the day care. Hope you get in. Jess and Callum must have made plans to wake the mummies up last night. He was also up at 4.30...gggrrrr.....lol
Well all bbl
Morning Lovely mummy's
Mel/Tan - Oh looks and sounds like you had a great time catching up during the weekend. I also love the pic you posted Tannis. I love your ticker too little Ash is just beautiful.
Tan - Isabel is doing really well in her cot, I am also trying out the grobags during the day to see how she goes so fingers crossed by the time she hits 3 months she will be in grobags and sleeping full time in her cot.
Kell - Oh sweet too bad about the daycare but at least you're on a waiting list. I hope you find a mobile too that you like, Big W do have some lovely ones.
Missy - It's so nice when they start to smile all the time and coo and goo hey, I love it when Isabel does it too, I just want to squeeze her with joy but I just give her lots of cuddles and kisses :p
Mel - How is Mehkelti's rash going sweet? Did the Dr give you anything to put on it?
Kristy - Hello, how are you doing with your three lovely boys?
Pixie - what wonderful news about Beth's stats sounds like she is doing really well. Isabel spits out her dummy like a hundred times before she finally falls asleep too which drives me nuts cause I have to put it back in each time :rofl:
Well we had the best night Isabel had a feed at 6:30pm woke at 12:30am for her next feed and then slept until 6am this morning... I have to say I feel so refreshed and rested, she is now sleeping again :confetti: I know that it might only be a one off but I have to say I was very proud of her this morning. She was a happy little bubs too after it all.
It's a gorgeous morning here in Melbourne, going to finish my mocha that DH make for me and go and have a shower before she wakes. Have a great day all..
BBL
Morning lovelies!
Well, I know a lot of your babies have been doing this for ages, but I'm so proud my little girl slept through the night! From 11pm to 6.30!!! :D
Tan & Mel that's a beautiful photo! Looks like you had a great time!
Tan, maybe it was Cetaphil that you're thinking of? That's always near the QV stuff
Missy the Bear says hi, he has just been really busy.... but he's having a nap now with Beth.... well he was trying but the weed-whacker man is outside making a racket!
Kel, bummer about the day care place. I guess if I'm going back to work next year I should start putting DD on waiting lists. But I soooooooo don't want to put her in daycare when she is 11 months old. Planning to ask my stepmother if she will look after her (we would pay her of course) but we should have a backup in case she doesn't want to.
Anyhoo, hope you all have a good day, hi to Tenny, SW, tasia, mez, and everyone!
Pixie - we must have been posting at the same time... Congrats on Beth sleeping through Isabel did the same thing for us last night too.
Missy - Oh I love the smell of fresh bread cooking.. It's so lovely.
Missy: YUMMMM!!! I love the smell of fresh bread!! Mel's a good girl isn't she!! Yeah Jayden gets heaps excited! I am shocked J did go to the toilet, the 1st time we were at the hospital visiting FIL so he had the choice of nappy or toilet...he chose toilet.
Kell: Jesse will be interested in TT'ing soon, Jayden didn't want a bar of it until last week. We have had a potty for a while and before he gets in the bath we ask if he wants to go, I never pushed him or made him sit...toys or books can encourage them though ;) I gave him bath toys that had a bit of water in them so they can "go potty" haha it worked. Jayden hasn't been interested today in it but it is only early I guess.
Mez: Thanks :)...I think she is beautiful but I'm bias LOL. Thats great Isabel is going great in her cot...how is mummy going with it? haha. Surprisingly Chris was worse than me when Jayden went into his cot, he kept finding excuses why he had to stay in our room...Too cold, won't hear him (despite having a monitor). Woohoo on Izzy's sleep! How good do ou feel after a good nights sleep after so many bad ones!
Rach: Beth's stats are fantastic...good job! Cetaphil thats it! Yeah that was good stuff! Wooho on Beth's sleep too!
We have this movie box thing and Jayden is watching Dora on it, between episodes I heard him saying C'mon Dora, C'mon...then the next episode started LOL I love all the things he says now!
Might go swimming at SIL's today if the wind stops, I need something to wear J out and get him away from the TV!
Little miss is after some attention....
Good morning ladies,
I've been a little absent over the last few days, as I've been a little busy. I've given up trying to have a nap, I was letting Beth have a little tummy time on the bed, turned her over as she was grizzling then she grabbed my hand and pulled it onto her chest like a blanket and just started snoring...very cute!
I've been renting a workshop up on the northern beaches for the last 12 months as I've been building a car, a large chunk of what's been keeping me busy is that I was given two weeks notice to vacate the workshop. This has meant that I've been hastily bolting enough of the car together so that it can be moved, packing tools, parts and other paraphernalia and working out how to dismantle and transport the huge (8mx12m) mezzanine floor that I'd constructed inside the workshop using only my 14 year old BIL as assisting labour...nearly done now, one more big day of shifting stuff and it should be done.
Beth's discharge letter from the hospital is most interesting, amongst other things it states that Pixie had an epidural (she didn't), and that Beth was breathing autonomously within 7 minutes (she didn't). I was standing there watching the clock, worrying about how long it had been so I had a pretty clear idea of the time...especially when the batteries on the portable O2 sat monitor starting to fail after 30 minutes or so...
Meanwhile she's growing so much every day, although she's not really cooing yet, we're getting lots of smiles and she's getting more and more curious and interested in everything each day. I'm probably going to accept a new job offer over the next couple of days, so we're thinking about heading up to QLD for a quick break before I start, just trying to figure out the logistics of making it happen now.
Tan & Mel - Great photo - looked like you all had a good time
Missy...hmm...bread, we haven't made some for a couple of weeks now, might be time to make some soon.
Tenny - The dog is trying to assert itself over your little one by stealing the clothes. Dogs view the family as a pack which has a clear pecking order...the dog needs to know that it's at the bottom of the pack and the clothes are off limits.
SW - Good luck with the house thing - interested to see how you go with the not swaddling, we're a little way off from rolling over yet - some of our biggest smiles come from swaddling her, I think we have developed a technique that would baffle Houdini himself!
Mel & Tan - That's a great photo! You both look fantastic!
Bear - I can't believe the discharge papers are wrong. WTF?!? Congrats on the new job offer. That's great!
Thanks for that about the dog. I'll try harder. I think it's all basically to do with the way my sister treated him from the start. Like he was a baby and hardly ever got punished for doing the wrong thing. I was basically the only one who did anything about his naughty behaviour. I'm not mean or anything to him, but I do treat him like he's a dog. I'm so over it. Luckily in a couple weeks I won't have to deal with his cr@p anymore. :P
Pixie - YAY!!!!!!! Beth slept through. WHOOHOO! Beth's stats are awesome!! Hayden's in the 75th percentile too.
Tan - Your ticker is cuteeeeee. I'm glad J is gentle with Ash. I hope when/if we go on a long trip the kiddies sleep like yours did. Imagine if they both cracked it the whole way. What a nightmare that woulda been!!!!
Kell - Good luck with the other day care. I hope you can get Jesse in. Fingers crossed the phone you're after is at the shop and you don't have to drive all over the place to find it.
Missy - Lol. Yep, it's offical I'm a forum freak. :P Hayden coos and makes his little noises softly too. He's all smiles and all that jazz aswell. He does his whingey stuff then when he sees me and thinks I'm going to pick him up it's smiles and coos straight away. What a little devil. MmM Bread cooking.
Kristy - I'm back into 90210 too. I kinda love it but :shhh: hhehehehe
I really need to get some new photos & a family photo. :doh: I feel so lazy.
*waves* to everyone.
(I can't believe they took away the wave emoticon.)
Have a great day!!
xx
Geoff: OMG @ the discharge letter! Are you going to get them to do it again or it doesn't matter? Beth will be cooing in no time, Ash has just started to get really vocal which was great when I was on the phone to my parents the other day (they haven't met her yet).
Tenny: Thanks hun :) Jayden was really whingy on the way down until we gave him the iphone to watch Diego on, luckily Ash was sleeping most of the trip. How long have you had your sister's dog? We still haven't got a family photo either.
Bear - thats shocking about the letter... disgraceful. What kind of car are you puttin together?
Pixie - yay for sleep through!! I think mine is going to be the only baby that doesn't sleep through shortly!!! She is still up at 2.30 - whether we feed her at 10 or not... ahh welll..doesn't matter....
Tan - that is such a cute ticker pic - I love the one craig got of her - so damn cute it should be illegal!! I should ask craig when can we go for a weekend trip up there - make it soon yeah?
Tenny - hmmmm if you are a forum freak with only 1000 posts - what does that make me? lol
Mez - rash is still there - he didn't give me anything for it... mustn't be too serious huh..and yay for Izzy's sleep!! makes such a difference to your day when you have slept well (not that I would remember - i haven't slept through uninterrupted for 20 months now...lol)
Missy - hope your burn isn't too bad today!!! use lots of moisturiser to help prevent peeling - works for me anyway.
Kel - yeah I will jump on there - when I remember!!! lol
Kristy - I sorta watch 90210 - its on tv and I'm watching it until DH asks me if I'm watching that crap... and I'm like...noooooo...lol
Hello to alll!!!!!!!!
Had a morning in the park - must of worn DS out cos he fell asleep in the car at 11.10 and is still sleeping now. Even transferred from the car to cot ok!!! amazing... wasn't the best time for me in the park - have started a thread in boohoo forum about it.
Must go, cat on lap sniffing baby... oh and keenan is back at home now- still has to be kept away from pepper so he doesn't get too excited - can spread to their heart apparently and kill them!!!
