Ok nite nite all.. sleep well..
Hey folks
Missy - so so sorry, what a difficult time for your family. You're doing so well to hold it all together and I'm sure your sister really appreciates your support. Thoughts and prayers with you all.
Kristy - same for you - your poor mum and wow, with all that you have on your plate, to find time to be able to help her too is just amazing. What a great mum AND great daughter you are.
Mel = bummer about the idiot doctor. There's plenty of them out there. Hope A is feeling better.
Kel - know what you mean - this post has been sitting here since about 5pm. The weather in the mountains was perfect, we went to the Botanic Gardens at Mt Tomah and lots of things were blooming it was lovely. And our babies are growing up soooo fast. I can't believe Beth is nearly 12 weeks, which reminds me:
:cheer: HAPPY THREE MONTH BIRTHDAY TO THE GORGEOUS GIRLS TARA, KIERA AND ASHLEA! :cheer:
Tenny - gorgeous pics. And what a rude *person* (feel free to insert less flattering description) - I can't believe she said that to you!
SW - hope all the moving and stuff is going well.
Belle - did you get the house? fingers crossed for you hon.
Tan - have a great time in Melbourne! I hope you girls have a great meetup.
Zee - :hug:
Today has been full on. Beth has been a lot better but still a bit clingy, and I had to cook dinner for BIL & SIL who are over from the UK. They just left, it was really nice to see them, they are good value. SIL has the same birthday as Beth and they hadn't met her before so they had a good time playing with her. Feel like I've only just stopped after going all day and now its pretty much time to wake DD for her late night feed and go to bed!
Anyway :hug: to anyone I missed and hope you all had a good night....
ETA - Great pics Kel - Kiera is sooo gorgeous, and what a beautiful smile!
Mary- Welcome back home, glad you had a good time at your parents..Izzy sounds like she will be off in no time. Lucas just screams when he is put on his belly :doh:
Kellxx- Yeah they are pretty pricey even when on sale..we got our Wii from kmart and same with the few games we have..
I have another Pead appointment next week..
Rach- Sorry I still havnt called you, havnt had a chance really..sounds like you were busy anyway
Im pretty sure my lil man will be getting a tooth soon... Laila was a fantastic teether so I hope he is aswell.
Mel: Aww poor A.....Hope he's better tonight!
Tenny: Nice to be needed sometimes but its also nice to be NOT needed haha. I get blamed for things too, most men just don't like to point the finger at themselves. What a rude biatch!! Did you say anything back to her? I think I would have been too stunned that someone would say such a thing. How old is she? Does she have kids? Gorgeous pics of your boys!! I love that there is not an ugly child/baby amongst us all haha
Kell: Hope Jesse wakes up in a better mood for you tomorrow! I said that to the MW today about solids aren't too far away....too scary! That makes me want another one, but I don't think I could handle another one in the near future haha. Gorgeous pics of Jesse and Keira too! I should have plenty after Melb....OMG I haven't even put the ones up from Mel and my meet up! I'm so slack!
Zee: Big :hug: for you! Jayden has been getting into lots of trouble lately and he has even started hurting Ashlea (nothing serious)....I am lucky that Ashlea is a good baby though, not sure I could handle if both were little monsters haha. When's your holiday? I think Ash is teething too but they can teeth up to 4mths before the teeth come....Jayden got his 1st tooth at 8mths old so Ash might be a far way off yet.
Mez: WELCOME BACK!!! Glad you had a great time, how did Izzy go on the plane? Woohoo Izzy getting up on her knees....She'll be crawling in no time! I'm more than happy for Ash not to work that one out just yet haha
Pix: Sounds like you have been busy! How come Beth is clingy? Is it just from the needles do you think or a phase? Ash is a bit that way sometimes, like she wants me to hold her to go to sleep at night but during the day she will doze off on her own.
Thanks everyone, we will have a great time in Melb no doubt, I can't wait to meet up with the Melb girls and SW! Still don't know where we are meeting though?? I probably won't have time in the morning to post but will probably log on through the iphone on our way to Hervey Bay. I made a colouring book for Jayden for the plane, just printed colouring pages from the net of different animals/dinosaurs/trucks etc and took it to my work and got them to bind it....I made a front cover with a photo of J on it, he was so excited!
Hey just thinking ahead a bit, would anyone be interested in a secret santa type thing for xmas? We could make it a $5 or $10 limit for the babies? Just a thought
Well I've typed more than enough I think, time for bed! YAY I'm so excited, I don't think I can sleep!!
Morning!
Well another wet and raining Wednesday in Sydney!
Missy/Kristy.. good thing we posponed until Friday! This is the 3rd Wednesday in a row its been raining! Kinda good for Jesse though, he has a little cough now this morning and still isnt 100%.. so we're having another day at home hopefully he will recover soon.
Jesse's woken in a usual mood.. not too bad so far but not a star child. Being its raining and he cant go outside its going to be joyful inside today.. have a heap of dvds for him to watch at least.
Tannis.. hehe yes i would love to see some more pics! Oh DH said to me the other night, that shes at the stage now you wish she would hurry up and grow up so you can play more with her (like Jesse) and i said nahhhh im enjoying her being a baby. I love this stage when theyre only being bottlefed, no solids. So much easier lol. I really hope shes not fussy like Jesse when it comes to food! Although he was great until about 18 months old. He would sit and just eat peas for dinner.. now.. anything green nooooo way! Have a great and safe trip!! Yeh we did a secret santa for Jesse's baby buddies for their birthdays.. that could be a nice idea for Christmas.. just limiting it to say $10 plus postage.
Zee.. yeh price doesnt matter.. just rather get it on sale so we can get a deal with more games or whatever included iykwim. oh im hoping Keira waits a little while for her teeth.. lol we've just got over all the teething with Jesse now he has them all.. dont want another "teether" just yet!
Pixie.. do you have a baby carrier? Maybe you can put her in that when you have things to do if shes being clingy. Sounds like you have been very busy! Did you see any snow up there? From that cold day?
Ok.. think i better get dressed now....
Wow it's a wet and cold one in Sydney this morning! My MG had to put off our walk again!
Don't mind too much though because yesterday was crazy, and it didn't help that DD woke up at 3.15, rocked her back to sleep and then woke up at 5.30 for a feed! Was kicking myself that I didn't just feed her at 3.... :doh:
Mez, welcome back! I'm so jealous I've been dying to go to New Zealand again for a year now!
Zee - I hear ya honey - this week and last week were just crazy.... maybe in a week or so we can catch up!
Kel - I have a Baby Bjorn but Beth absolutely hates it.... she screams as soon as I put her in it! I'm hoping it's just from the shots, she seems a bit better today. And no snow in the mountains, we obviously missed it!
Tan - have a great time in Melbourne! I'm jealous of you too!
anyway, Beth is chatting away on her playmat so I'm going to go chat with her! BBL!
SW - :cheer: HAPPY 3 MONTHS ALYSSA! :cheer:
Allo allo
*yawn* - nuff said from how this house is at the moment!!!
Tenny - :hug: I don't think we ever get time to do anything for ourselves anymore - think thats what happens when you go from 1 to 2 kids... never get any time at all !!!!
And that skank is sooo lucky I wasn't with you - I don't put up with that crap from anyone. Everyone's poo stinks so as far as I'm concerned, we are all human and deserve to be treated with respect. lots of people weren't brought up to respect everyone though and to think they are on a higher level - they know where they can stick that attitude. Try to shrug it off mate, I wouldn't pee on her if she was on fire, so I doubt she actually brings anything good into society. Great pics btw. OH - and Miss M has between 150ml and 200ml - I make up 200ml but she doesn't drink it all the time.
Kel - Hope Jesse is in a better mood than yesterday!!!! I hate it when they wake up grumpy - just puts me in a bad mood too. Gorgeous pics - Keira is soooo gorgeous..
Zee - sorry you are having a rough time with Lucas - I know about toddlers running wild though - OMG... we should swap for a while.. lol
Mez - welcome back - you were missed!!! Glad to hear you had a good time in NZ - I'd love to go there, heard its very much like Tassie - which is beautiful. Miss M gets up on her knees too - with her head firmly stuck to the floor.. lol.. think its cos they are sooo very brainy their heads weigh heaps.. ;)
Pixie - :) Got nothing to say really - but I love ya!!!! ;)
Tan - yup count me in babe
SW - happy 3 months to your gorgeous little babe *mwah* will reply to your email soon.. I promise.. I know, I'm slack as
Well gotta go check on DS - he wanted to go to bed at 9.30 so I put him down, not sure if he is actually sleeping, when I left him he was still moaning - damn this high temp crap - its really getting to me.. going to take him to the doc again today and demand that they find out what is wrong with him - 3 days of high temps just aren't on (and I'm running out of panadol!!!)
Miss M is asleep in her swing - I feel so sorry for her - DS is taking up all my attention at the moment cos he just wants to be held and rocked and carried all over the house - so she gets nothing from mummy when he is like that.. :( I need another 4 arms I think..
ETA - EEK!!! HOW COULD I FORGET!!!
HAPPY 3 MONTHS TO LUCAS ZEE!!!
OMG Mel me too!
:bluecheer: HAPPY THREE MONTHS LUCAS!!!!! :bluecheer:
Happy three months, Lucas!! =)))
hi all
Well just waiting for my sister to call me about John. I thought the op was today but it the consultation with the bowl doc. Then she has to go and help with the food for the wake so she has her hands full. I spoke to her last night and she sounded abit better. Was with Nadenes hubby all day with another close friend of hers. There was the three of them. Donna my sister, Nadene and Karen. They use to run the hugest muck. Was funny to watch them.
I want to say thanks to you all. Im sorry but just trying to get the ironing done but wanted to say thanks for your kind words.
Oh I loved all the photos too. Am commenting on them now.
Happy 3 months for all you beautiful bubba's.
BBL.
xxxx
Afternoon already... whoa! where has the time gone today?
Zee - Happy 3months to Lucas!!!! :bluecheer: Elijah was a great teether, so I'm also hoping Haydie is aswell, and I hope he's a little further off with the whole teething stuffs. I don't think I'm ready for it. When is your holiday??
Kell - Gorgeous pics! Elijah was a gutsy little thing all the time too. Haydie isn't so much really. Here I go over worrying once again. LOL. I kinda want Hayden is be able to sit up and interact a bit with Elijah, instead of just watching and smiling at him, but then again I love it as he is, still a little baby.
Tan - Nope, I didn't say anything back to her. I was in utter shock like the rest of the ladies at the table. Nope, that chick has no kids. She's like 27, I think. One of those stuck up cows who wear a face full of makeup that you need a paint scraper to get it off. Yuck! Have a fantastic trip! Get loads of photos! I'm jealous too. I've never even been on a plane before in my life. LOL :redface:
Mel - How is DS today??? Is he any better?? I'm hoping so. Oh yeah, I could do with an extra set of arms too. Elijah is starting to be really jealous of Hayden too. Especially lately when Hayden is whinging more then usual so he's usually in my arms or in the carrier. He doesn't hurt him or anything but he's just after all the attention. I can't wait for it to pass (if it ever does. :pray: ) I wish I was more like you, I really do. Then I could have shoved that comment right up where the sun don't shine.
Pixie - Sorry to hear Beth has been clingy. Hayden has been too, but lucky for me he actually loves the Baby bjorn, thank god! I am usually just carrying him around in that most the time these days so it's more peaceful. lol. I hope it passes and it was just Beth's shots.
Mez - Welcome back! Sounds like you had a fantastic trip! How did Izzy travel? YAY Izzy for getting on her knees. Hayden does that sometimes. He likes to lift his legs right off the ground alot so he's just balancing on his tummy. It's very odd. Lol.
SW - Happy 3months Alyssa!!! :cheer: How're you? When do you go down to Melb?
Thanks for replying about how much your bubbas are drinking. It did put my mind at ease. I think Haydie just had a huge growth spurt. He wasn't even drinking all of 180ml, then all of a sudden he'd drink it all and want more, so we upped it to 200ml. He was drinking all that too for like all last week. Now he's slowed down and back to not even drinking 180ml. Lol.
Oh and about the soilds thing. The lady asked about that when we went to the drop-in clinic on friday. How scary is it that we're starting real food really soon.
Have a great day.
*waves* Tasia, Missy, Belle, and anyone else I've missed. <3
Oh and before I caught Elijah sitting in Hayden's swing. I was like "OMG! You'll break it. Get out!" then I turned away and giggled quietly to myself. Hahaha.
xx
Good evening ladies :)
Wat a beautiful day it was today. I went to Edwards Lake in Reservoir with one of my friends & her nieces & she brought along her daughters & I brought Jonathan as well. It was nice sitting down & feeding the ducks very relaxing.
Mary- WELCOME BACK KOUKLA. We missed u heaps. That's fantastic that Izzy is up on her knees well done Izzy :)
Tenny- I am feeling better sweety thank you :) How's everything going with you? Jonathan is having 180mls.
Missy- My thoughts go out to you & your family *HUGS*
Question- Does anyone baby hold & support own head when holding him/her onto ur side? I think I asked this question before, not sure. Also sorry 2 questions- has anyone started giving bubs Farex? I'm planning to give Jonathan Farex at 5 months.
Evening ladies..
Ehhh have i had a fun few hours with this computer! Stupid virus's and malware!!!!!!! Fixed it thank god.. and i havent even downloaded anything lately!
Tasia.. yeh we will be starting Keira on Rice Cereal (farex) when shes due to start solids. I think its a little early now though. Ill just be going on when she is ready as we did with Jesse. He was 5 months. lol though i would rather wait out to 6 months if i can.. just because its a PITA when they first start solids and you have to go out. Yeh Keira can hold her head pretty well.. can sometimes be a little wobbly still but she holds it up right.
Tenny.. lol how cute! oh I have photos of Jesse in Keira's capsule! I always pick him up as i do her and say awww my little baby and he loves it. So cute. Oh i know what you mean. I can see Keira gets frustraited already she cant get up and go. Wont be long though!
Missy.. big hugs hun.. just you dont forget to take it easy ok.
Mel.. yeh id be seeing a different doctor. I dont think its normal to have a temp for that long. Poor thing could have an ear infection or something. Hope they figure out what is wrong.
Pixie.. oh thats a bummer. Maybe she will like it more when she can face the front?
Jesse's still not well. He had a 3 hour nap this arvo. I just let him sleep cos he so needs it. But hes now all chesty poor thing. So will see how it goes as to weather we go to the doc. Apart from being moody he is happy enough.. i think the flu is just a pita to him.
OH! Im so peeed at kmart! Ive been waiting to see their Toy Sale catalgue all week.. we dont get it delivered here.. it starts tomorrow. I called them twice today asking when it will be up on their website. First guy said usually around 2-3pm. Called them at 4.30pm.. asked if she could email me it.. she says no it will be up on the website tonight as the sale starts tomorrow.. well its now 10pm and its still not up! Idiots!
ok rant over.. lol feel better now.
Well anywho.. im going to hit the hay.. nite all..
xx
hi,
thought i would pop in while i am waiting for my cake to cook.
I'm getting into cake decorating. its fun, i have made a couple of cakes most of which have turned out ok. I'll post some pics when i download them.
mez - welcome back! Go little isabel up on her knees. ike was a quick mover aswll. was walking at 10.5months. but i think the twins will be late (and i am happy with that) did you get time out while you were with the family; alone time?
pixie/ bear - how nice it must have been to see your family, i would hate for my family to be fo far away i see my sister and mum at least 3 times a week sometimes more. and with the baby bjorn will beth face out in it, we had one for ike but he generally only liked to face out, not in.
Tennykins- what great pics they are just too cute.
Zee- where is your holiday?
missy- big:hug: keep your chin up. i'm sure things will get better for your family soon.
kell- ooh toy sale K-mart here i come. when r u going? 3 hours is a long sleep for jess poor baby must feel crappy.
Anastasia your questions: the twins have a very floppy head. i think they will be late divelopers. and as for food, every baby is different they are ready for food around 6 months a good way to tell is if they stop pushing their tongue out. ike was a hungry baby i fed him at almost 5 months but there is no way the twins will be ready before 6 months i may even waite till 7 months if they need to as they were prem.
ok oven bell just rang chat later
BYE
Kel- Jonathan holds his head but a little wobbly though. He would sometimes bang his head on to my shoulder. When I lay him down on his back he can lift his head up as well onto his tummy as well. But why is he wobbling am i doing something wrong. My friend today when she was holding Jonathan she said to me that he is floppy & I took it personally I don't know why but i did. I'm doing everything right, I'm putting him on his tummy, his back.
Anastasia - does your friend have children at all? Its not unusual for Jonathan to still be banging into your shoulder. He's only 15 weeks old for godsake. You don't want them to grow up too quickly - believe me!!!! Dont' stress, he's doing fine. Tell your friend to shove it where the sun don't shine.
Kristy - OMG woman you are supermum!! baking cakes!!? ****... I have to get tips off you cos I am soooo not organised enough to do that!!!!!
Kel - stupid k-fart. I can say that cos I worked for them for 5 years.. lol.. hope Jesse feels better tomorrow.
Tenny - nah you don't wanna be like me chicky.. I'm a cow.. LOL... just remember how beautiful you are - and you don't deserve to be treated like crap. :hug:
Missy - :hug: you are an amazingly strong woman.
Ok thats it for tonight.. better gooooooo.... toooo... beddd... I'm sure DS will be up during the night cos he still had a slight temp when he went to be (just after 7pm mind you - an hour earlier than usual!!!)
Check ya babes tomorra!!!
Mel- lol, she has 2 girls, & you know wat it sounded like as well, it sounded like that her kids are perfect & they never had wobbly heads. It sounded like my girls never had wobbly head.
I'm off ladies, have a great nite.
Take care & keep smiling :)
mel- Im not that organised at all. i have to do everything at night. im cooking the cakes tonight and i will decorate tomorrow while isaac is at day care. If you could see my washing pile you wouldn't think im organised.
The 2nd cake is in the oven now (its a layer cake)
Anastasia- i found heaps of woman like that. sometimes it makes you feel like its a massive competition. who walks first, who sits first, toilet training, big bed and so on. and you know even if you didn't do tummy time they would still grow up perfectly normal. and oh so cute.
we started play group today: it was raining and we kept trying to keep them inside but after a while the kiddies won and they had a ball jumping in puddles and running around. i have tried a couple of groups and have not been too happy but this one seems good.
thank you for all the thoughts ree mum. she is doing much better. it will be a long recovery. I think i will take her my cake tomorrow.
had the kiddies weighed last week (after their needles) caleb is 6.6kg and Sebi is 5.8kg. they are such little fellas. their was a baby at play group who is 8 weeks older and he is a giant compared to my boys. but im not worried Dh is tallish so they will catch up.
found out my GF is getting married on fraiser island in early 2010 so we have about 18 months to save and we will fly up and have a nice holiday. hopefully it will be whale watching season. what a good excuse for a holiday.
better run 2nd cake is almost ready
Kristy
Morningggggggggggggg.
Ehh its too dark to be awake.. grrrr at my son. Though it is just 7am now.
Kristy.. i think youll find compared to the babies in this group, your boys are pretty much spot on. Remember they are premi so that 8 weeks older baby would really be more like 13 weeks older and not to mension were born twins. And they arent that little i dont think. I seriously wouldnt be concerned as you know they are putting on weight and are doing it pretty well. i had a look at the catalogue that came on mustve been like midnight or something and theres no Wii cheap in there grrrr. So nothing i really want. We have everything for Jesse for Christmas just want something for Keira.. but they do have 30% off fisher price so i might be able to get her something. No idea what.. no rush though.. i have to wait until i get paid next week.
Tasia.. Keira's head still wobbles and can bang my shoulder sometimes. Dont listen to your friend. I hate when people say oh they should be doing this buy now and compare their kids to yours. Every baby is different for gawd sake! And usually also girls are faster learners than boys. Just dont listen to her nasty remarks and just say well he will do it when hes ready.. because he will. And you are doing absolutely NOTHING wrong! I didnt even do tummy time for Jesse because he hated it. And he did everything at the same rate he was suppose to. Keira.. well shes lucky if shes on her tummy for 5minutes a week. Shes ok with it for 5 minutes but doesnt over like it either so im not going to push it.. esp when i know Jesse worked out fine without me doing it. He just needs to build up those muscles himself.. nothing you can program hun.. he will get there trust me.
Mel.. did you get an appointment for him? I hope he wakes up better today.
Ok i can hear Keira talking in her room.. so gonna go get her up, feed her and crash on the lounge...
Have a lovely day..
Kel - that's good I thought the sale finished today not started today and I missed out - baby brain!
Kristy I second what Mel said - I think you are a super mum!
And Tasia don't worry about it, they all develop at their own pace, just enjoy it. If your friend is so competitive she obviously has *issues* :rolleyes:
Well, I have been trying to deny it but I think Beth is teething. I can see the teeth under her gums. :crying: It's too soon!
Anyway, got to run, too much to do today! Wave to everyone, BBL I hope!
Morning all
Wrote this in my blog so just copied it to here.
Well Spoke to my sister Last night and and her DH is having his op of all days on Monday the day of the funeral. As she said that was the only time he could fit him in so they had to take it as he needs to have it done quick and start cemo. I asked donna did he have any idea what it could be and he said no he will have to wait till he is in there. So the op for BIL bowl is Monday, along with the funeral. My BIL told my sister she has to go to the furnerl for Nadene (to say farwel) and to be there for her family. Im going to go too but As I told Donna I wont sit with her as I didnt want to upset her more as Im hopeless at funerals. I didnt want to be crying cause I saw Nadenes kids cry and make Donna more upset then she needs to be. She is also saying some words at the funeral.
So after Monday, We should find out on Wednesday what is up with BIL bowls, then if all ok he will start cemo on thursday. Donna said she isnt looking forward to it. I think seeing Nadene go through it she is worried she wont be able to handle watching her DH go through all the sickness that comes with cemo.
I just take my hat off to donna as I couldnt do it. God forbid something happen that bad in this family.
Have to clean up then go to the shops. BBL for some personls.
morning:
pixie- cant remember if i asked you already but where do you take beth to the clinic. my mum's friends daughter has a baby and she is having trouble. but she was told that their are no clinics around there and i thought this has to be wrong. anyway i thought if you could tell me i can tell her. this poor woman has no clue! she is a great mum but knows nothing about what help she can get.
not much on the agenda today, cleaning out our shed so we can have the christening in there. Icing my cake, going to mums tonight to cook her dinner.
missy / kell / syd mums, its still raining u wanna go to castle towers play thing tomorrow ?
better run i have become addicted to sci-fi on fox...
Anastasia - sorry if I sounded harsh - I just hate people making other people feel like their kids are less than perfect ya know? All kids develop differently - even siblings - so there is no use comparing.
Kristy - I still think you are very organised!!!!!! And both your bubs are bigger than Miss M :)
Kel - I took him the doc yesterday, they couldn't find anything wrong with him so just told me to keep him on panadol and nurofen to keep the fever down. He woke up a few times last night crying and that so he is being kept home again today (much to my dismay - I have so much to get organised before going to work on Monday and I wanted today with just one kid!!)
Ahh well at least mum is coming over to help.
Pixie - I replied in our August thread bout the teeth :hug:
Better go - someone is whinging!!!! (Actually not DS - Miss M - must need more sleep)
Kristy there is an Early Childhood Centre in Balmain on Darling St - they have drop-in on Tuesday mornings. Other times you have to make an appointment and they are pretty overstretched at the moment cause there has been a bit of a baby boom round here :o
But if you know what suburb she is in, let me know because I have a list of all the phone numbers here for all the centres in the area.
Mel - Thanks! I think!
Missy - :hug:
Good mrning ladies :)
Mel- No sweety ur weren't being harsh, I agree with wat u said. I agree kids do develop differently.
Pixie= my friend does have issues in her own different way lol.
Kel- Why do they have to be so competitive for really. I know my son will suopport his own head properly it will take just time or he will improve in his own time.
Kristy- I'm not the competitive type of person so I really don't give a flying **** wat people say. I just love being with my son & interacting with him.
Morning lovely mummy's, babies & daddy
Kristy - I'm sure that your mum will enjoy you cooking for her today it's always nice when you can do something nice for them when they aren't feeling the best. Wow two cakes you are good I struggled to make choc chip cookies the other weekend end. Yes I had some time to myself Isabel's grandparents looked after her one morning so that I could go out to brunch with my BIL & SIL.
Kell - How are you hun, I can't believe that K-mart were like that I hope they have uploaded it on their website now! How is your little man?
Mel - How is your little man feeling today?? LOL at our little ones planting their heads down on the floor but it's so true ;) I think I'm going to be in trouble cause I started to walk at 9 months as did my hubby :doh:
Tasia - I wouldn't worry about what anyone says about the development of your baby they all grow at different rates like everyone else has suggest.
Melbourne girls , Tannis and SW when and where are we meeting up on Monday???
Kristy - Don't forget to take pictures of the cake. I bet your mum will love it. I hope she's going ok. Oh wow about your friends wedding and that'll be great as a family holiday too!
Pixie - :hug: I hope Beth goes ok with teething. Haydies cheeks have been so pink the last few days + extra dribbling, so I don't know if it's teeth or what. :dunno:
Mel - So is DS's high temps just from teeth? I hope today is a better day... and I don't think you're a cow.
Missy - What a day monday will be for you all. :hug: :hug: :hug:
Tasia - I don't get why people have to comment like that either. As everyone has said all babies do things differently. He's going great. He looks like a happy little chappy too. You're doing a fantastic job!!! I have friends who don't even have kids but try and brag about other peoples kids to me. I makes me think that by putting my family down, it makes themselves feel better or fill the void they may have in their lives. I'm not even a bragger myself. I'm bias, just like every parent, and think my kiddies are wonderful but I don't rub it in peoples faces so I really don't understand why these friends of mine say stuff.
Kell - I hope Jesse feels better soon.
I finally bought a slow cooker yesterday. DP has been harassing me to get one for ages.
Do any of you have any great and easy recipes for me???
Pretty please. :lol:
Haydie is slowly waking up now. He's been asleep all morning. It's been really quiet here and peaceful. I got to relax, read a magazine and watch crappy shows on tv without being interrupted. Ahh, it was so good.
xoxo.
Tenny - your standard spaghetti bol for the slow cooker!! =) Make up the sauce quickly in the morning and leave it simmering all day in the slow cooker - magic. You can also cook roasts in them, and the meat goes sooooo soft that it just falls apart.
I'll see if I can find my fave recipe book that we often use with our slow cooker - but it might already be packed!!
I'd be pushing Bear and Pixie for recipes - they're the gourmet chefs of this group =)
And grats on the easy morning ;) Love it!
Pixie.. oh i hope for you shes not teething! lol. Though they can sit under the gums for a while (they look like white skin parts.. actually i just looked at Keira and she has the same. But yeh hopefully its not really for another few months that they poke through.. thats when all the fun starts!
Missy.. big hugs for you and your sister and BIL. I hope the op goes well and they find nothing. Just be there for her and she will get through it.. as will he. :hug:
Mel.. hmm that is just weird. Maybe he does just have teeth coming through and theyre being little bastards! Poor thing. Hows he going today. Hope it passes for you soon.
Tasia.. oh i know. My SIL is the same. Trying to push my niece into gymnastics and swimming and she made sure everyone knew when her DD walked and crawled (they were trying to get her to walk at 5 months old!).. shes even taking her to see the wiggles.. and shes not even 1 yet! I guess im just not like that. I let Jesse learn to do everything on his own.. from rolling over to crawling to walking. I didnt really teach him anything and he just did it when he was suppose to.. must be an instinct thing ya know. In Jesse's BB's.. most of them are all toilet trained. Im not even bothering with him because i know he isnt ready and pushing something like that when theyre not ready will just prolong the task. Theres nothing wrong with him not being able to yet.. hes bright enough in every aspect.. hes just not ready. Its the same with any of their milestones.. theyll do it when they are physically and mentally ready. So yeh just take those competitive types with a grain of salt hun. By the time theyre all 5 years old you wont be able to tell the difference.
Mez.. how you doing? Settling back in? How has Izzy gone with the Jetlag? Jesse's seems ok. He seems to have a good day then a bad day with this flu. Horrible things they are. Hopefully he will be better by swimming on saturday so we dont miss another week.
Tenny.. oooow re the slow cooker. We dont have one so im of no help but FIL has and loves his.
Ok gotta go.. still getting stupid a$$ trojan pop ups! grrrrrrrrrrr

Hey folks, back after traipsing around town for five hours! Poor little Beth woke up and screamed all the way home on the bus!
SW -LOL - I would say something, but I got in trouble for hawking the Bear's recipe services on BB the other day! :redface::
I'd be pushing Bear and Pixie for recipes - they're the gourmet chefs of this group =)
Tenny I think there is a whole section on slow cookers in the Recipes and cooking area? And thank for the comments on my FB photos!
Wow kristy great cake!
Mez, tan and other melbourne girls, hope you have a great meetup!
Missy - sending you big hugs for your sis and your BIL, hope the operation is ok and they dont find anything, I do apologise for not saying anything until now, its very close to my heart as my dad passed away of liver and bowel cancer 12 years ago today so reading you post I feel the anguish that you and your family are going through.
Hello to everyone will be back in the morning to catchup with you all.
Bel

Just a quick one..
SW - Oh yeah! I never even though about a spaghetti bol sauce. Ta for the idea.
Pixie - Your photos are great. I really can see you in Beth in alot of your pics. She's such a cutie pie! I didn't even think to look in the recipe section. I don't even think I've been in that area before.. ooops. Thanks.
Kristy - Your cake looks fantastic! MmM. I could go a piece of it right about now, I think. I hope your mum loves it and is getting better.
Belle - :hug: and do you know if you got the house yet?
Bit of issues with DS1 not listening and stuff at preschool today, so I'm a bit upset at that and don't know what to do. :(
I posted in the parenting section earlier for some ideas and help.
Hayden has been real whingey tonight like wanting me in his sight the whole time and cracks it when he can't see me, so I couldn't even go to the toilet. Lucky DP came home a little earlier so I could go. Hahahaha!! Haydie is so different to Elijah.
Geeeeeeez. DP turned the tv on so I've prob missed the start of RPA!
Nightynight everyone.
<3 all round.

Hi all
Hope you all having a good time on halloween..heheh..
Had a nice day with Kristy and Kell and the kiddies played so nice and had the best time. Kell has photos so hope she gets them up tonight some time. ***looks at Kell****.....lol.
On the way home dropped into another shop to get callum a mask for trick or treat but instead he wanted a hulk outfit so got him that. Melissa, Callum and I went trick or treating and Callum was saying it. The last house we went to Melissa said to callum when the door open, what do you say, and Callum said to the lady that answered, "got a lollie"...lmfao. It was so funny and cute.
Got home had take away then just had a bath and now relaxing.
Well better head off.
Tannis I so happpy your there safe and sound. Have fun hun.
Hope you get to the meet up Anastasia
Ok im off. c ya's
Morning!
Well i feel crapola today.. and have to take Jesse to swimming lessons joy. I hope im feeling better over the next hour!
Missy.. will get those pics up this arvo as ill have to adjust the size of them first and ill email you the full version of the one of callum and the one of you and Liam so you can get them printed.. so cute!
DH is letting me get a new stroller! WOO! Im going to get a side by side one for Jesse and Keira like Julies as im so sick of the phil & ted. Its a piece of sheeeit! Great for 1 kid, but 2 its hopeless! Keira is longer than the part she lies down in so she spends the whole time bent up. It only lays completely flat for her which is great for her reflux and she spends the whole day crying and grumpy when shes not asleep.. then the evenings after being out are crap. I think she also hates that she cant see anything. Jesse is too big for the toddler seat and lately he's been having a nap in the pram.. so hes all twisted trying to sleep. Just crap. Have tried Keira in the toddler seat on the back and its still too upright for her.. who knows if she'll like it later on. So DH said i can get another side by side one.. had to bribe him with sex pmsl! So am gonna go shopping this arvo and have a lookseee. Will then decide later on which one ill resell. Least with the p&t ill get a fair bit back for it.
Ok.. gonna make a coffee before the IL's are here to mind Keira.
Have a lovely weekend all!

Tan - Great to hear your kiddies were good with the flight and you all made it safe and sound.
Missy - How cute of Callum! Did you dress up?? We had people coming to our house last night that didn't even have any costumes on. We didn't have anything to give them anyways. Lol. It was really dark and young kids were still coming around. I wonder where their parents were... seriously. I wouldn't let my children go out like that when it's pitch black knocking on strangers doors.
Tasia - Hey! *wave* The nice quiet relaxing days are good I reckon. Hope you can make the meetup.
Kell - YAY for your DH letting you get a better pram!! There's nothing worse then having a *****ty pram that annoys you and makes the kids cranky everytime you go out. Haydie likes to be nosey and look around too. I hope you can find what you're looking for and for a reasonable price.
Can't wait to see the piccies.
Hey everyone else. It's a bit quiet here lately.
I hope you're all going great.
:hug: and <3's

Heya all,
Gosh its hard for me to get in here, at least with facebook I can use the net on my phone but getting onto BB on the phone is a PITA.
I dont think I will be able to catch up, feeling better now that im back on my meds and they are kicking in again.
Lucas has a TOOTH!! Got it Wed the day he turned 3 months old. He is a crappy teether.. unlike Laila.
Our holiday isnt till may/june/july next yr LOL (we havnt decided what month but DH has holidays from may) and it will be in Fiji somewhere.
Kristy- I think the twins are doing great so I wouldnt be worried at all. They were premmie and seem to be doing everything pretty spot on to me. Lucas wasnt even premmie and apart from getting a tooth he seems to be doing everything else delayed compared to Laila. He is also just 6.1Kgs now.
Tasia- DH took my bank card off me today, now the offer we put on a house has been accepted. I can still buy over the net though LOL. I also never did tummy time for Laila cause she hated it and Lucas dosnt like it either,screams the sec he gets put on his tummy.
Tania- Glad your having a great time and the kids were good on the plane.
Tenny- I wasnt giving stuff out LOL, less lollies for me!
Missy- PMSL thats so funny!!
Kellxx- Thats good, Lucas loves sitting in the toddler seat in the back..dont know about yours but with my toddler seat you can unzip it so it lays back abit. Yeah we always wait for sales to buy games, even then they dont seem worth it LOL.
Mel- Is A better? Happy 3 months tomorrow lil princess!
Well DH got home with good news today.. WE ARE HOME OWNERS!! Well after the cooling off period. So we will be moving in just before xmas... its in Bensville (gosford). Now to pack *sigh*
