    SW have a great flight and all the best for your big move! Hope it goes great and I'm sure you will find a beautiful place to live in Adelaide too!
    Tan congratulations on doing so well with the BFing talk.... good stuff on getting Ash's room sorted out.... I want to get one of those toy hammocks for Beth - SW has one and that gave me the idea
    Tenny re: DS1 hurting DS2 I think you're doing really well if that is the only thing that has happened so far! Hope Haydie feels better soon. Our Bumbo is second hand so the warnings are a bit rubbed off, mostly they seem to be about putting them on raised surfaces and supervision. Although I probably wouldn't leave DD in it for more than about 5 or 10 mins.... she gets a bit frustrated after a while and starts arching her back to try and get out. But OMG it has been so good for her sitting.
    Mel - I know what you mean about the stuff overload.... we have been pretty good and then the Bear's parents decide we need a fluffy sheep which is like 1.5mx1.5m hello we live in a small flat and that could suffocate DD! We have to keep it in the lounge room cause there is nowhere else to put it!
    Went on the walk this morning but wow it was so hot. Cooled down a bit now fortunately. Hmmm little madam has been asleep for ages and is a bit overdue for a feed..... do I wake her or not....

    Afternoon ladies & Bear,

    Well we had a lovely time today as I held our MG at our house. They all loved the house and even more so the coffee and banana cake . All the kids were great too, it's so nice to see them each week and how much they have grown. They no longer just lie there anymore they are very active lol.

    A big to everyone, just had a call from my DH and he wants me to get ready in the car as we are off to my parents for dinner tonight.

    *sigh* what a crappy day. I've just gotten DD down for the second time today - had to be persuaded by a bottle to fall asleep this time. Plus I have a really bad toothache that i've been ignoring for about 2 weeks now - but I'm havin to take really strong drugs to dull the pain so I think its time to visit the dentist -

    SW - have a good flight- be safe my friend

    Missy - thats great you had a fantastic time - I wish I was closer to hang out with you guys too!!!!!

    Mez - MMmmm banana cake - my fav!!! send some up ?? hehe

    Not much else to report. Better go do the bottles and washing up. Already done the lunches for tomorrow, DH has done the ironing for tomorrow, the house is a pigsty but thats ok - doesn't need to be perfect.. haha!!!

    Hope everyone has a good night with the bubbas - and toddlers!!!!

    Mel - Sounds like you had a hard day today sweet. Hope M sleeps well for you tonight. I would love to send some your way, I have to say it's yummy.

    Missy - so good that you all had a great day today, it's so nice when the kids play well together hey.

    Pixie - I only wake Isabel during the day and only if she has slept for over 2 hours. I never wake her during the night and her last feed is a dream feed.

    SW - Hope you arrived safely today and getting settled for your first night in Adelaide. Looking forward to when you log on again.

    two of the babies in my MG have gotten their first tooth which is very exciting. Isabel woke at 3am and wanted to play, I tried to resettle her again without her dummy but it didn't work Hope she sleeps through tonight poor little chicken. Oh and I've bought and wrapped my KK going to send it tomorrow woohoo...

    hey all =)))

    flight was uneventful. As per usual, a bunch of peeps wanting to get close to Alyssa going "Oh my god, look at her hair! She's beautiful!"

    Got to MIL's place (well, it's our place now until the new house is built) to find that she's bought us a bar fridge and filled it with all the basics to keep us going until our stuff arrives!!! She's also left us her ADSL modem and wireless setup. So 'net straight off!

    ALSO found the housewarming pressie that Bear and Pixie had sent me =)))) You guys ROCK! Hope you kept some for yourselves!!

    Gotta dash - Alyssa is apparently dying of starvation! =)) Better feed the gal

    Back tomorrow!

    Morning!

    Had a great day yesterday with Missy and Kristy and the kids here. The boys played in jesse's clam shells with water and on their bikes, they had the best day. We also had a great day playing with the babies.

    Mez.. oh its the time for toothies to start poking through hey! none yet here though!

    Mel.. thanks hun. Il have to look for some. Hope M slept through for you last night. Oh you poor thing, i know how you feel re the tooth.. not fun. Hope you can get it fixed soon.

    Missy.. lol thanks. Yeh DH gets most of his DVDs from Amazon in the US. Oh glad you liked it and it turned out ok.. will have to make it again.

    Tan.. thanks hun. oh well done on you public speaking! And your lamb roast, bet it was yummo! oh cute! Youll have to take some pics once its all done! Im not putting presents under our tree until Christmas Eve once Jesse's in bed. Even though we have a play pen around the tree, since his birthday he has been mad about unwrapping presents. And i just know if i put them under theyll be all opened within a day. Plus i think it will be great seeing his face on Christmas morning with all these presents under the tree.

    Tenny.. yeh it could be possible hun. Just make sure you take care of yourself ok. If you ever need to chat, i usually always have MSN on while im home. I know with my anxiety atm, if i keep myself busy (like yesterday when missy and kristy were over) its not as bad and also if i have someone to talk to. So maybe if you have someone there to talk to when youre feeling down it might help. lol oh yes, but i bet they will be great mates also.

    Pixie.. thanks hun. Oh that looks great!! Id love to get one for Keira. Was it expensive? I might google them.

    Feeb.. thanks hun.

    Tasia.. thanks hun. Oh hun, im sorry youre going through such a hard time. Do you have anyone around that can mind Jonathan while you have some time to yourself?

    Thanks for all your support ladies. Ill have to get some of that remedy stuff. I found, like yesterday when Kristy and Missy were over with the kids, if im occupied it doesnt effect me as much. Its when im home by myself that it stews on my mind. So i guess keeping myself busy also maybe the key, not to fix it but to maybe deminish the problem.

    I think i might go shopping for my KK on the weekend when i pick up Keira's christmas ball. DH aint working this weekend so will leave the kids with him and have some time out for myself.

    Ok day at home today so will try and do some stuff.. even though theres not much to do hmmm.. will make some muffins for Jesse maybe.

    Morning all. Not going to say good morning cause im in the worst mood. Callum was up abit last night then liam at 4.45 and then callum at 6am trying to get me up. awwww very tired.

    Anastasia have fun at the zoo hun.

    Zee I love my lights. Did you come and have a peek. Callum loves them. I only took Liam out the front the other day to see them and he was fasinated. OMG losing 6kg, Id love to do that but you thats not good as your pretty thin. Good the doc is taking the rod out. Yes Liam is loveing his solids. He is having them morning and night now. I wont do lunch until about 5 1/2 months. See how he goes.

    Oh we are off to get santa photos today but im pi*sed tht the same santa is not there. Ive had the same santa for 4 years now and he has his own hair and looks so much what santa should look like. Oh I guess I will just have to get them done anyway. Then we are off to my sistes house to take photos of the kids for presents for my mum and dad and IL's. We going to blow them up. Should be fun trying to get them done with two little ones.

    Well BBL tonight.

    Hope you all have a nice day

    Oh I still cant get over my brother. He is older then SIL, SIL is 34 and Brother is 45 so im soooooooooooooooooooooooo happy. Ok enough. Sorry just over the moon for them.

    Take care

    Feeb - LOL at cisco suit =)) i know we can get IBM ones, but I'm not sure I could do that to her We don't work for Google, thus it's cute and geeky. Wish they had google girl ones! I have google girl lip balm!

    Sweetpea - I think you can buy them off the 'net, but this one was sent to us by a friend in the US who works for google. The official google store seems to have a similar product. So if you want one, you can (strangely enough) google "google store" or "google baby merchandise" and it will find the google store for you

    Belle - great to see you online again! Been a little worried abt you as you'd been so quiet, but hadn't had much of a chance to fire off an email at you to see how you're doing. Not that you would have gotten it, anyways, by the sounds of things!! Hope the new meds don't knock you around too much as you get used to them.

    Zee - glad doc is doing something for you re. blood loss... That was getting pretty scary. Hope it improves FAST!

    Missy - grats on your bro. Sounds like your fam were in need of some more happy news in light of recent events!


    Cats meowing at bedroom door. Might be time to let them in for a cuddle before the noise wakes Alyssa! And yes, it is sad that my 'puter is in this bedroom, but this room will be the machine room once all our furniture gets here as it has built in desks along two walls - about 6m of desk space in all. For now, it's the only room in the house with any furniture (MIL left me a single bed in here to sleep in until our stuff arrives)

    Waves to everyone!

    Kel & Missy, Kirsty how ru guys? good to hear you are all catching up regularly seems like you are having lots of fun and so are the kids. Its great to see the photos.

    Julia was up and down last night so many times, I dont know if it was nightmares or what she kept asking for Teddy's blanket which was on teddy in her bed but couldnt see it sigh. So not much sleep was had here! she kept waking Tara up as they share a room LOL.

    Ohh Julias wanting breakie, back later girls... have a good weekend.

    Missy.. yay congratulations to your brother and you to be an aunty!!! Good luck with all the photos. Bummer bout the santa! That sux.

    Belle.. yeh doing good here thanks. I wonder if because it was so hot last night that didnt help Julia. Jesse had troubles too last night.

    Tasia.. have a great day at the zoo honey!

    After swimming today will leave the kids with DH and go pick up Keira's christmas ball and do my KK shopping. Very exciting! Will be nice to get out by myself too, even though i always feel naked without my kids!

    Belle as you can see by the other post I havent been %100 but am getting better thanks. I still havent got my voice back to normal but its getting better. I hope it wasnt because of the heat that Julia didnt sleep cause its going to be hotter today. 36. Awwww Hope Sisters pool is not to cold. Hope your feeling better too. Opps better get the needles done. Oh I hate that stage. Good luck with it. Yes I love our meet ups with the girls. I think we need another big meet up soon. All the Syd ladies and The Bear.???????

    Ok i wanna rant..

    Every christmas we take turns as to which family we spend christmas day with. This year it is DH's family. So we then organise another day sometime to spend with my family. DH works every second weekend & BIL is working alot through too so it limits us. The weekend before Christmas DH is off. We cant do the Saturday cos of swimming (which is the case for my niece anways too) so the Sunday was free. Well my nephew is going to a birthday party so we cant do it then (who puts a birthday party on that close to christmas anyways!!). So the only other time is not until new year as DH is working boxing day.. plus BIL works through alot of the weekends and holidays too. Ok fair enough. But mum tells me today that she is going to do a christmas party with both my sister's and brother's families next tuesday so their kids can get their Christmas presents.. (what about Jesse and Keira!!?) .. knowing too well that DH is working and we cant go, as im not driving all that way and back in 1 day with 2 kids by myself. HOW RUDE! So its ok for the party to go ahead when its ok for my sister's family and we cant make it (considering we are the ones who have to travel to them! my bro and sis live 5 minutes away) but not ok for us to have a party and my nephew to miss out cos of a birthday party??!! Like WTF! Ive always known my brother and sister were favourites in our family.. and my sister's kids and the fav grandkids.. but thats just fricken rude. So yeh im not happy at all and so glad they live so damn far away! Farrrrk them!

    Tan.. seriously they must have such dismal lives if all they can do is biarch about you and everyone else.. how pathetic. Just think of them as the "Ugly SIL's (stepsisters)" Hope your party today doesnt cause you too much stress.

    Tenny.. oh thatas great you had a good night and elijah behaved himself! Good luck with Hayden's solids tomorrow.. make sure you take photos!! Hope Hayden waits off for a while with that teething! not fun!

    Both my kids are asleep! Jesse has been asleep on the lounge room floor since 10.30am.. he who gets me up at 6.15am. Keira's asleep in her rocker. So just watching Girls Of the Playboy Mansion.. damn repeats though!
    MIL's coming over later to watch the kids while DH and i go shopping (once he gets home from work). So will be nice to get away from whinge for a few hours.. if its not one its the other atm.

    Awww yes my ticker updated!!!!

    Zee yes about the book. Thats the one hun!!

    Well Callum has been abit naughty today. Does anyone else with toddlers have problems trying to get them to have sleeps during the day. He doesnt seem to want them but then is a real sort by the end of the day.

    LOL @ miss keira. NOOOO she isnt like that is she. Not my little cutie pie.

    yeah Tenny Twilight hasnt had much talk about it. Not sure why not. Oh well. It was huge in the States so have to see if it did as well here. YAY on DS1 being a good boy. dont you love it when they are. Oh poor bubbablue crying. Liam did that the other day with FIL was talking to him, Liam looked at me and cried.

    Tan I totally understand and your allowed to have post about you, its not like you do it all the time and some times we need to just vent. I hope the SIL pull their heads in for you hun.

    **** Kell that is so horrible. Oh I cant believe that. How rude. What has your brother and sister said. Do they stick up for you. I know mine would have said lets try and get Julie bla bla bla. Im so sorry this is happening to you. Text or ring if you need to talk or If you want to vent some more on msn.

    Well bbl got to help dh bath callum. he baths and I dress.
