Babies Born July 16th - 31st 2008 #4

Happy birthday SW - love ya babe *mwah* Hope your gorgeous husband and bubba treat you like the star you are today (and what about the wild sex?? huh?? huh??? lol)

Hey Belle - sounds great for Julia - what a great mum ypu have!!

Kristy - nice to know someone else's toddler still wakes up a couple of times a night!! We got him a Mammut bed from Ikea cos its really close to the ground and is so damn cute!!

RE - christmas - we don't celebrate xmas in this house - we celebrate birthdays - so I doubt we will be putting anything out for "santa" :)

Tan - yeah mate I think it is our turn to come to you.. maybe early next year...lol

We were tossing up going to Tassie to see my dad (who has never met the kids) with the money from K. Rudd - but we will get it in a lump sum at the end of the financial year unfortunately - and I wanted to fly before DS turns 2 so he gets on for free - so now that trip is out of the question!!

Maybe we will do a drive down and visit people in Sydney, Canberra and Melbourne instead ;)

No news here really - got support from my OB yesterday to start TTC in June and have my VBA2C - so thats good. Didn't even need a pap smear woohoo!!

Ok she has finished her bottle - time to burp!

look new sig..

bell- yeh i think thats the one.

mel- i was looking at those beds 4 isaac, but we still want him in the cot 4 another year.

oops smelly bum brb

Morning everyone.

Aaaarrrrggg the night I had was sh*t. It was the worst ever. My gosh. It started with Callum getting up while I was still on the net. He came out and laid next to me on the lounge. So once Locking everything up as DH was already in bed, I put the little man back to bed, turned off all the lights, checked on Liam then went to bed. Was about 11.45. Callum woke again at 2.12am so put him back to bed again, Liam woke at 3am for a feed, so fed him then put him back at 3.45am and went to check on Callum (which I aways do After I feed Liam) and he had wet through everything.:doh:. I changed him, his sheets, Put him back to bed after a drink of water, then went to bed again, was about 4.10am. Well woke up again at 4.30am to a little person next to me, Yes Callum so put him back to bed then again at 4.50am which I gave up so he slept the rest of the night we us. So really didnt have the best night and got up at 8.15am. Im feeling abit :o at the moment. Liam the little monkey is still in bed so that is good as Callum eats and I catch up.:D

Happy birthday SW Have a good 21st.

WOW to be 21 again unlike Kristy, Id love to be!!!

Anastasia cool ill have a look hun. Hope your night was better then mine hun. Hope you all had a better night then me...lol

No Tannis I wont be there :cry: would love to meet the melb mummies. Have fun all!!

Belle hi there. I understand your regular meet up with Zee every fortnight as I do it with a friend that Callum goes to day care with but just thought If you and Zee where inviting Rach and beth again Id love to see them again so thought having another big meet up would be good. Once My back yard it baby safe and the hot weather comes ill be having everyone over for a swim if they are interested. Yes the beach sounds great too, I dont know how to get to any beaches but the ones up the coast:rolleyes: as Im always up there visiting mum and dad but Id be in it for sure. Just need to follow some one...lol

hey Arimeh,Bear, Pix, Mel, MB, tenny, Kell and anyone esle ive missed:dance:

Hi Kristy hun. Yes Callum would love to have breccy at school too but I couldnt get him there in time. lol...Awww god love the twins. that wasnt a bad sleep hun. Must have been the day yesterday with the kids (biger kids) waking last night. wonder how Kell wnet. Yep Callum in School Mon and tues so we wont be able to make it but have a fab time and take lots of photos if you go. Oh I cant wait for Christmas. Ive been saving like made for it. Not just pressies but lights as well. Im doing up my house massive this year. We do it every Year witha bit of lights but because callum understands now we are going all out. Dh wasnt real inpress as he is going to have to get up on the roof abit more this year..heheheh:p

Well all im off for a nother cuppa. bbl

oh kristy ill be on all day today too as Im staying home and doing washing. So ill pop in every now and then for a chat. Ive got washing to do so better head off and do that.

oh crap talking about washing i better do some so they dry on the nice sun today...

missy we can go to castle atrium(rsl) on a friday or something they wont have a clown but i don't care, ike cried last time he saw a clown.hehe:rolleyes:. i'm thinking about starting playgroup on a tuesday anyway. might go next week, to playgroup i mean.

Mel can i ask why you don't celibrate christmas. My GF doesn't do xmas but does a gift for her kids as a reward for being good all year. she started to do this when they went to school as they got bullied for not having christmas pressants. they r bahai so no christmas at all. my christmas is hypocitical:D im not religous but love christmas.

ok better do that nappy load.

:cheer: :confetti: :happybirthday: :confetti: :cheer:
Happy Birthday SW!!! Another libran....... But I'm more of an old fart than you! LOL Hope you have a great day!
Belle, love the beach, great idea! Any of those sound good to me, I will leave it up to everyone else to choose though, because we are probably closer than most people. Would the toddlers be OK at the beach, not too much hassle to chase after?
Tan babe - I'm toying with the idea of a lightning trip to Melbourne but I thought cup weekend would be too busy/ expensive. If you are there till the 9th maybe I will come a bit later.... I have some virgin blue reward points to use up.... hmm get back to you on that. And Beth has started turning her head when she's feeding too - hope she doesn't keep doing it, it's killing my nipples!
Kristy I know what you mean about the 11pm feed. I have that dilemma every night - do I wake her for a feed, try to dreamfeed or let her sleep? Unfortunately dreamfeeds only work once in a blue moon (I think it worked once) other times she either won't feed in her sleep or only takes five mins. Or she wakes up. If I don't wake her she wakes up twice in the night, so I generally wake her up, she feeds and usually goes back to sleep without much drama but at that time of night I feel bad for waking her and worry that she won't go back to sleep... she always does though. Last night she slept from 11.30 to 5.30 :dance::dance::dance: happy mummy!
9.5 weeks to Xmas - eek! I think most of my shopping will be on dealsdirect this year! Bear was saying we probably wouldn't buy much for Beth this year although I have so enjoyed seeing her with the new toy I got her the other day I am not so sure!

Mel can i ask why you don't celibrate christmas.

Hmmm ok, well I think its a whole lot of commercialised bull$hit that has no relevance whatsoever to religion considering you are supposed to be celebrating the birth of Christ when he was actually born in February (or March) anyway.... and I hate the thought of celebrating someone else's birthday just because I'm TOLD that I have to - would rather make a big deal out of my family's actual birthdays because that is more important to me... and i hate the fact that most families break down at christmas cos of all this bull$hit pressure that is put on people to supply good presents, go into debt for, and then most people don't appreciate the effort anyway because there are so many presents being thrown around that day anyway...

Well thats my rant over...

So we get together with family - DH's family don't celebrate xmas, whereas my family does - so we only get presents for half the family - although I try every year to tell people not to buy presents - just a get together with good food, good laughs and let the kids play should be present enough for everyone..

Doesn't work like that in my family unfortunately.. :rolleyes:

pixie- check out the walker to walgon on deald sirect i got one for the boys.
yay what a great sleep beth had.

god yes! i hate some of the christmas crap. we don't do any gifts except for kids and unless they r your own they must be cheap mostly books. tocans if you will. my house is open at christmas. i cook and whoever whats to come can. this year we have a few ring-ins that have no one else. so everyone is welcome here if your bored.
hehe even my divorced parents make an effort at christmas.

my 3 are getting a swing set.

Happy birthday SW - love ya babe *mwah* Hope your gorgeous husband and bubba treat you like the star you are today (and what about the wild sex?? huh?? huh??? lol)

Hah! We tried that last year and now we have Alyssa!!

PMSL... hmmm... good point!!!!!!

Missy - all clear now hun

just about the diet. I think its goog. Friend wants to know where u got it from

good that is...lol

Where I got it from? I created it myself on amounts of calories in the calorie king book. I was limiting myself to 1200cals a day - and found myself needing to follow a plan cos I'm so slack with motivation - so I just created it around meals that we normally had - allowing for snacks of course!!!

Morning All!

sw.. i have no idea what you are talking about.. im pleased with who i am and what colour my hair is.. and no i dont find derogatory comments fun or funny, especially when it had no real context in the statement to begin with. I had nothing to do with what was going on last night. I have no idea why you are singling me out.. but i dont have the time and patience for someone who wants to continually attack me on this forum.

Kristy.. hmm you could be referring to either Dee Why or North Narabeen beach? Is it near a lake also? With the lagoon, do you mean like a lake that kinda goes out to the sea? If so yeh thats North Narrabeen and Narrabeen Lakes. Yep Jesse will be starting school next year.. If we go somewhere for coffee wise, would have to be local so we can be back to pick them up in time. YAY for the Jeans! Woo you looked like a hot mumma! lol even though i didnt see you try them on.. im just guessing you would lmao. Oh Love the new sig!!! Ooow youre getting fox! Yep its on fox. Stupid show.. kinda like candid camera but scarey.. but theyre so lame! And Shannon, well need i say more lol. Oh you will love fox! At first i was like mehh yeh ok (cos it was Grahame who wanted it).. now i love it! Make sure you tell them you want free installation!
Re Santa.. um.. its kinda 50/50 atm. Jesse's still too young to understand where they come from. We may end up just doing what my parents did though.. most presents are from Santa and one gift from mum and dad.. i liked what they did also though.. every year Santa brought a present for the family which was a board game. I think ill be definately doing that... such a nice idea and thing for the family to play together. Oh with Grahame.. he just goes with what i say lol.

Mel.. oh Jesse is still waking every night.. i hear it continues for quite a while yet :o Oh bummer. But yeh the drive might be nice? All the best for your VBAC2

Missy.. oh dear.. what a night. Hope you can get some rest today some time.

Feeb.. lol re Jacob's tongue! Keira has tongue tie so hers doesnt come out very far but one of Kristy's boys have a long tongue.. i think its Sebastian. We were saying, Gene Simmons eat your hear out :lol:

Tasia.. going to check out your pics now honey!

Tannis.. thanks hun. Yeh ive never had it before.. no idea why.. still here though :(

Well our night was ok. Jesse didnt wake up.. shock horror! But Keira did at 5am grr. So i fed her cos she was wide awake and i didnt have the energy to keep getting up and putting the dummy in. So put her back to bed at 5.30am. DH gets up for work at 6.30am.. Jesse then comes in with me until he leaves.. then we have to wave him off. So i then napped on the couch while he played until Keira woke at 9.30am. Tried to give her a bottle and she didnt want a bar of it. Go figure! I was thinking she was waking up early because she was hungry so thought ok ill try and start feeding her 200mls instead of 150mls. Well she drank about 80mls and wouldnt have any more. Shes now asleep in her rocker. So who knows.

Have Keira's needles this arvo. Joy joy. Gonna dose her up with panadol before we leave.. so hopefully we dont get a reaccurance of Jesse and his first needles.

Oh well done hun

I want to lose the liam fat that he left behind on me...lol and Im hoping your diet will do the trick..all worth the fat though. Love liam to bits

All the best for your VBAC2
