Just a quick pop in this morning before we head off to see my girlfriend and her kiddies. We're all dressed just waiting to go now.

We went and saw some Christmas lights last night.. oh Jesse absolutely loved them! I was almost in happy tears hearing him so excited each house we went to saying "wwoooooww" and "loooook". Oh its such a great feeling. Was a late night for him as it doesnt really get dark until about 8-8.30pm and hes usually in bed about 7.30pm. We got home about 9.30pm. But he did so well and im so glad we did it. Keira slept the whole way which was probably a good thing.

I best get going. Hope you all have a great day! Only 3 sleeps until Christmas!!!

Good morning ladies & Bear

Hope we r all having a nice morning. Jonathan slept ok last night, he went to sleep at 11.30 then he woke up at 12.30, went and checked up on him but he fell asleep asap. He then woke up at 5.45am, but he was happy and taled to himself, i stayed in bed till 6am & got up and fed him, Thank-u all so much for ur help & advices. I'm sorry if I was winging or complaining ( i didn't really mean to be).

Kel- that is so cute that Jesse was happy to see xmas lights at houses Have a great day sweety

Tan- Yeah u have mentioned it before about going with the flow & I will. About was u sleeping during the day while Jonathan is asleep, I can't it's me I can't sleep during the day, I will only just lie down on the couch & watch telly. Glad u had a great time last night. LOL Jayden so cute that he said lol how funny. Yaaay for putting Ashlea in her cot for the first time, even though it was a short time, but she will get used to it

Anastasia - I was thinking this over this morning - and you said he doesn't drink the boiled water - how are you giving it to him? If you are trying it out of a bottle - try it with a sippy cup instead

Kel - aww that woulda sounded sooo cute!!!!!! I love it when DS gets all excited about something and yells "mummeee... LOOK"... pmsl.. its sooo cute..

Tan - J is so funny!!!! Such a treasure And yay for having a few drinks - you go girl

I'm at work today - DH is home with DD - having a daddy/daughter day! DS is at daycare for the last time this year. Umm yeah.. thats all from here!!!

Better go before I get busted. hehe

[Anastasia]

Mel- Yeah i give bottle boiled water. Thanx for suggesting the sippy cup, I will try & see how he goes.

This question is for anyone- Are we aloud to add butter to mash potato? I will be adding water instead of formula.

This question is for anyone- Are we aloud to add butter to mash potato? I will be adding water instead of formula.

Butter is dairy based, and they say you should avoid feeding dairy in the first 12 months. Having said that, many peeps do feed dairy in small amounts and have no problems. It's up to you to decide how you want to do it for your child. Personally, I wouldn't

We had our first mach nurse appointment today since the move =)))) The nurse is absolutely in love with my girl (gorgeous little charmer that she is), and said she's tracking beautifully.

she now weighs 6.29kg and is 62.5cm in length. Couldn't be stuffed lookin for that chart thingo everyone has been filling in - too much to do and not enough time to bother with that Some other time!

Haven't yet read over everything that has been happening, so not much in the way of personals. Just a quick drop in to update her stats and say how happy I am now that we have made a decision on a builder, and as such should be really getting into things with the house build early next year!! First we need to finalise all the plans, inclusions, figure out electricals, etc. We're going for fully CBus automated electricals so that will add an insane amount to the cost, but will be extremely geeky and cool! Even some of our windows will open and close at the touch of a button (and some will have rain sensors and self close!) So lots of work to do to get that one organised. Should have council approval around April and start building shortly thereafter!! YAY! Might just manage to move in by next christmas, if not then shortly thereafter.

gotta go feed the gal =)

waves to all!

SW- thanx sweety for that. I have given Jonathan mash potato without butter and he loved it. That's fantastic that ur girl is doing well, great stats too.

Howdeedooo..

Had a lovely day with my girlfriend. Was so good to see her. Her bubba is teeny tiny! Couldnt believe how small she was! Makes Keira look like a heffa lump instead of just a porky pig!

Good to hear you ladies had a good day. lol.. i think Liam and Keira have an "open" relationship. Shes always flirting with those Hawkins boys too! (Kristy's)

Tasia.. nah i wouldnt add butter just yet. Babies can have yogurt at around 8-9 months. But i probably just wouldnt introduce the butter just yet as hes only just starting on solids plus the salt content in butter isnt good at a young age. Its best not to add anything (esp salt) other than formula to their first foods as you want them to get use to the foods as they are naturally. Oh thats a good sleep for Jonathan! Its all a start at least!

Mel.. lol cute. Hope your DH and M had a nice day together.

Tan.. does he have a night light? Jesse doesnt like the light off either and has one to fall asleep to. Glad you had a nice night.

Ok DH wants to have a go on the Wii so im off.. have a nice night!

[Missy]

lol @ that kell. Oh that is so funny!!!!!

Have fun on the Wii
