[TheBear]

How's the new job going? I hope everything is great.

A bit manic to be honest, it's turning out to be a bit like serious work!

I've turned up right in the middle of the annual budget cycle, so I've got well over 2000 people wanting decisions on the strategy behind around $60m worth of projects in an industry and company that I'm new to...

It's nice to be able to play with Beth for a bit in the morning, and when I get home in the evening, makes the world seem a better place.

[Missy]

Oh feeb I think he is doing ok hun. I wouldnt worry to much and he looks beaut. Those photos on your face book are so fantastic hun. Im sure he will be fine. He is lovely!! Oh thanks yes im sure Mel is having a good time and I think she is pretty too.

Well done Bear on the job. I bet your miss little beth. Its hard leaving them to go back to work but hey some one has to do it.

[thepixie]

Morning folks!
Well Beth had her shots yesterday. She was pretty good, screamed a little but calmed down after a few minutes. She was smiling at the doctor by the end of it. She was OK last night, a bit grumpy and had a slight fever in the evening, but I gave her panadol and she's back to normal this morning.
Missy - great shots! your kids are so cute and Melissa is gorgeous.
Tenny - 7kg! he's a big boy! Good work!
Kel - it's great that you've found a nice day care for Jess. Have to start thinking about day care for DD for next year or what we will do when I go back to work I was talking to the mothers' group girls about it yesterday and its so expensive and the waiting lists are so long!
Tan hope you feel better babe. Have fun with your friend.
Tasia - hope everything's OK babe
Well, crazy day yesterday but a good one. After Beth had her shots went for coffee/lunch with the mothers' group girls - went till 4pm! We are going to meet for Melbourne cup lunch too. What are you Melbourne girls doing for cup day? Had a friend over last night, Bear cooked dinner, and by the time I drove her home and fed DD it was nearly midnight!
Missy forgot to ask - is Liam still sleeping through? I got five nights and then broke my streak She woke at 4.20 Thursday night and 3.30 last night but at least it was just a quick dummy replacement and she fell back to sleep. O well - gotta love it while it lasts!
Feeb, Mel, SW, Zee, Belle, and everyone have a great day!

Morning!

Well not a nice night in our house. Jesse's sick. So no swimming today. Has a touch of the flu poor mite. Had a temp all night from about 6pm. Went to bed and woke up crying. He refused to take any Demazin or panadol.. demazin he spat out. Panadol i eventually got into him at least. He would only sleep in his big bed. So i lay with him in it.. he fell asleep. That was all good. He then woke an hour later and would only go back to sleep with me in there. And that just went on all night. I brought him into our room at 5.30am. He is just such a fiddler when going to sleep. So this morning he has a runny nose and managed to get him to have some more panadol. Best we dont go to swimming as dont want to make it worse.. its already freezing out.

Tenny.. Im just starting Jesse with 1 day.. see how he goes. No doubt he will love it (as he just LOVES kids) and ill see if he wants to go 2 days. Oh yay on the weight gain! My midwife says a chubby baby is a healthy baby! Keira is a chubba. I so have to get her weighed. I will next time im at a chemist! Oh re the head.. if you have a tape measure you can just do it yourself.. but it looks fine to me in all his pics. Hehe aww you silly worrier.. but i guess thats what us mums do.. i think its part of our job description or something

Missy.. Mel looks stunning hun! Hope she had a good night! And Liam.. well you know my thoughts on him.. he just keeps getting cuter and cuter!

Feeb.. well a gain is a gain i say! Have you tried the other one.. um starts with Z? That might work better for him?

Bear.. good to see you. Oh i think its most important. Glad you still get some time with Beth.

Pixie.. oh when do you have to go back to work? yeh not sure what the wait is like over your way.. our way is pretty good. I only put Jesse on the list about a month or 2 ago for next year and hes in. But yeh definately an idea to do it early anyways. I think i will with Keira just so we dont have to be in limbo when she wants to go. Oh nice re Melb cup.
Not sure what we'll do.. probably nothing like last year lol.. might see if Kristy wants to do something.. Julie if you want to aswell? Even just at my house or something.


Well just going to be a lazy day at our house today. The suns out so will make sure Jesse gets some sun out the back.. hopefully make him feel a little better.

[Missy]

Morning all

Well great night again in this house. Oh Pixie hun yes Liam is still sleeping through. I fed him last night at 8.15pm and DH got him up at 8am for a feed. He did wake at 6am but as he doesnt have a dummy he went back to sleep by himself. Its been almost a week now. Sorry for the brag.. I will wake him up for a feed if his last was say 5 or 6pm, I wake him at 10pm for a feed then back to bed but if he has a feed 8pm or later I dont worry about it as he will sleep through. Callum was in our bed at 7am for cuddles and Me and him got up at 8.30am.

Melissa was home at 11.15pm as she rang and said it was boring and she was tired and didnt want to stay. I went to pick her up and there was so many ppl there. Lots of the locals who 1/2 of them I hate and then there were some older ones. Im glad she rang as there would have been 70+ people there and there was heaps of drinking I did see. So she was happy to come home and I was glad she made that choice.

Oh Im glade Beth was ok with her shots. Isnt it heartbreaking Pix. Liam has to have his 2nd shots on the 2rd Nov not looking forward to that.

Oh kell sorry Jesse isnt well. Keep him warm and see if he will have something with lemon in it. That might be abit hard....lol... I find lemon helps me. Do you and the sydney girls want to go to the park out at richmond on Wednesday. Callum woulld love to see some planes take off and would be nice for him to run around.


Well im off to do some more washing.

Good morning ladies

How r we all? Thank you all so much for ur support, I really appreciate it. Jonathan is doing really well & I looooooooooooove him sooooooooooo much, he is the best thing that'sa ever happened to me. I'm not stressing or worrying about my son. It's my hubby, like he doesn't do anything. So I'm ignoring him.

Anyway I'm doing laundry this morning. Cleaned the house yesterday. Sorry no personals now. Maybe later when I come back on. Hope all u beautiful mummy's & bubbas are doing really well Take care & keep smiling

xoxoxoxoxox

[Anastasia]

[Tannis]

Hey Girls and Bear
I'm yet to read through all the posts properly but Tasia huge for you hun I know EXACTLY how you feel RE lazy partners. I was running around yesterday between J and A plus had visitors and I'm sick and Chris was sitting in the media room watching the Gaelic (sP?) footy! He said "yeah but the footy is on, I wanted to watch it" but there is always something on that he HAS to watch plus he told me 2 days ago that we was flying down to the Gold COast this morning for Indy....Ummm bit more notice would have been nice or an invite for me and the kids! So I'm stuck at home while he goes off and has fun with the topless waitresses his mate hired! Sorry thats my whinge over!

Missy the pics are great! So are yours Tasia! I'll try to catch up tomorrow if I get a chance, I keep forgetting we are leaving for Melb in 4 more sleeps!! Not sure what I need to organise! Can Melb girls who are coming on the 3rd PM me you mobile #'s or at least a couple so I can keep in contact about time etc. TIA

[Anastasia]

Hi ladies

What a hooooooot one here in Melbourne. I hate it lol. My day was quiet one stayed indoors. Hubby did the gardening.

Tannis- Oh dear don't you just hate it when they tell u last minute. My hubby is going to Vietnam on the 27th Dec & returning back 7th Jan. He is going for work. So yeah he won't be here for NYE. In a way I wish he was here for NYE & in a way I'm glad he's going the house all to myself lol. My sis will stay with me cause sometimes I get scared at nite I know I'm a big baby but I feel unsafe if I'm home alone, so my sis she is staying with me but not on xmas day & NYE & New yrs day.

Hope everyone is having a great weekend

[Tannis]

Everyone must be having a great weekend....or at least a busy one!

I'm not too bad here on my own but I went out to my niece's last night (her parents are away) with the kids and I made sure all the doors were locked before I left (usually I don't worry if they are unlocked) cause I knew I'd be home late, once I am home though I'm not scared unless I'm watching a scary movie haha. Thats good you have your sis to stay with you!

Missy: You're lucky you have a good girl! I wasn't a very good teenager haha I hope Ashlea is like Mel and not me haha. Thats great Liam is sleeping through for you....brag away I say haha its great hearing what other babies are doing.

Feeb: If Jacob is looking healthy and alert I wouldn't worry about the weight. MCHN told me last checkup that at 3mths their weight plateau's and they dont gain as much, so 200g in 17 days would probably be fine...You're doing a great job! As far as his sleep goes, Jayden always had a great sleep pattern when he was little but just as I got used to it he'd change it. Jacob could be starting to teeth which can disrupt their sleep...just know that he will get over it and sleep through again for you.

Pixie: Beth handled her shots ok then? How did you go with it? What a busy day!! Hope Beth starts sleeping through again for you!

Kell: Hows Jesse? Hope he is feeling better!

I had a great time with my friends here, her 2 girls are so cute!! It was a shame I was sick the whole time although it didn't stop me from doing anything. I did pretty much lose my voice though. We went out Fri night for dinner and the kids were in the play room and there were older kids in there throwing the cubes (for sitting on) around the room and hitting each other with them and beanbags so I had a go at them (me with hardly any voice haha), told them there are little kids in here and what they were doing was dangerous and if they want to crack their heads open when they hit the wall or floor to go ahead but not while our kids were in there. I told them I'd get the manager in if they kept it up PMSL I felt like such a parent!!!
Gotta go....hope everyone is back tomorrow!

[Arimeh]

Morning me luv-eer-lees

I've been MIA for a few days - been reading but as soon as I go to post - someone needs something from me!!!

Missy - great pics mate - Mel loooks so grown up!!! And I hope Miss M turns out to be a good girl like your girl - not a metal loving, smoking, alcohol abusing, trampy thing her mother was at that age...lol... I think my mother could have killed me sometimes..lol

Kel - I hope Jesse is better. DS crawled into our bed this morning and he was so hot, I could tell he had a fever. We gave him a shot of nurofen and panadol and it brought it down a little bit. We sent him to day care today anyway - cos he's happy to go there - but with strict instructions to call us if he gets worse. He's not sick - its his bloody teeth!!! Driving me mental.

He also has the worst nappy rash I have ever seen - its blistered and everything!!!!! Damn molars!!! arghhh

Tan - I'm glad you had a good time with your friends - and you total mum you.. LOL... I'd do the same thing mind you

Thanks to both Tan and SW for keeping me awake the other morning with text messages whilst driving - thanks - much appreciated!!!!! LOL

Hello to everyone else - sorry not many personals - have a baby on lap trying to push herself off!!!

Gotta go to the new daycare today to hand in enrolment forms back to work next monday
(Eww vomit running down arm - gotta dash!!!)

[ShootingStar]

Morning all..

Well Jess has made a meraculous recovery! Yesterday his nose stopped running and today he seems back to his old self.. even slept through the night. So we're having a home day today just to make sure.. but looks like he only had a mild version of the flu luckily.

Mel.. oh poor thing.. those molars are killers arent they. Jesse has his come through when he had the gastro so made everything twice as bad. Ive found Papaw cream the best for nappy rash and the blisters.. what do you use? Oh how many days are you working?

Tannis.. lol.. you go girl! Ive had to do similar to some kids.. i think it was when we were at a play centre and the reply we got was "youre not our parents" and "you arent the manager" when we said well we'll go get the manager they shut up and left. But glad you had a nice time out.

Tasia.. ohhhh hun i can so relate with the DH thing. Mine is the same. Im sick of saying to him can you put things away! He'll get something out of the cupbard to eat.. say a pack of biscuits.. takes what he wants then leaves the rest in an open packet on the counter... and the cupboard door wide open. Im forever saying can you put things away! He said he would make me some pop corn yesterday. Got the box out unwrapped it and put it in the microwave. Once it finished i said well are you going to get it out of the microwave.. so he did. Later when i went into the kitchen, there was the box of remaining popcorn packets and the plastic he unwrapped mine from on the bench. Like can you not put it back once youve finished or in the bin. Does my head in. With Keira and Jesse he will do things without complaining, but only when i ask. Its just a PITA that i have to ask. lol sorry for my rant, but hun, i know how you feel.

Missy.. wednesday sounds good to me! Lets hope this week it doesnt rain! And brag away! Thats great hes sleeping so well! Mel seems like a very smart young lady.

Well im off to put the clothes away and do some washing.

[feeb]

kellex omg i think we must be married to same guy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! mine leaves cupboards and drawers open all the time!!!!

[Arimeh]

Ive found Papaw cream the best for nappy rash and the blisters.. what do you use? Oh how many days are you working?

Kell - I'm using moogoo cream cos its safe to use with cloth. will see how it goes.

oh and i'll be working 3 days a week - mon, thurs and fri. doing conveyancing for a month (yuck!!) and then I'll be doing family law/litigation (plerghhh)

Soooooooo not looking forward to it.

[thepixie]

hey folks!
been MIA for a few days too.... really busy. we ended up staying in the blue mountains on saturday night cause the Bear's uncle offered to shout us a night in the Carrington Hotel. It was really nice but it made for a very hectic weekend! We got to meet up with one of our August Baby Buddies so that was good.
Kel - good to hear Jesse is feeling better. Amazing how quick they bounce back isn't it!
Tan - the Bear and I so want to slap your DH!! We'll have to come visit sometime! Hope you're feeling better.
Missy - great that Liam is sleeping through! even better that Callum usually does too. Beth usually sleeps from 11 to 6.30 but sometimes she doesn't.
I've got such a mountain of housework to do today but it's been so difficult cause DD has been a right little cranky pants which is not like her at all. She might be still unsettled from her shots on friday or maybe she is just exhausted cause it was a pretty full on weekend.
BTW most of you have probably seen it, or seen the photos before but I finally put photos of Beth on Facebook .... I've been wanting to do that for ages.
Well, better go and get stuff done - she has just fallen asleep in her rocker.
Big wave to feeb, tasia, tenny, kristy, belle, zee, sw and everyone
