SW - all is good here honey just putting some plans in place to get back to normal :) good to hear you are settling in , how r the cats doing?

Opps havent given Tara her needles at 4 months yet must do that and update her stats also.

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.

Morning all!

Off to swimming this morning so just a quick one.

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!

Have a great day all..

Well just waiting for Liam to wake to go to get the santa's photos. The 3 kids are all dressed in red top (for xmas ) and jeans. Then when we go to My sisters they will change their tops to white.

Oh SW I hope the cats didnt wake DD. Yes some good news for my family. Its about time.

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.???????

Kell that girl wouldnt let me pay the postage. Oh hang on have I already said this. hmmmm not sure but she wouldnt let me pay for it so im going to go to toysrus to try and find one. I know im going to be a aunty...yiiippeeeeee. Oh that reminds me too to get Liams ball done. have a nice day hun.

Well better go.

Have a nice day all

Sweetpea: Ashlea's last checkup was at 3mths too, I'll get her weighed every month (it was every 2 weeks when we had feeding probs). Awww Reaghan's a clever girl doing everything all at once haha. What a confusing schedule!

HAPPY 5mths REAGHAN!!

Feeb: Yay for the BBQ! We used ours everyday for months when we got ours

Mel: Woohoo on having your own office!!

Belle: Love the pics, the girls are gorgeous! Thats good you can go on better meds now. Ash got better thanks...I think it could be the heat too, we have had 2 or 3 days of 33 degrees and its another hot one today.

Kell: We have just stopped bottles as of yesterday...cold turkey!

Tenny: Np's hun, I was on the website and I don't think she would get them done by xmas anyway. OMG what are you feeding that boy?? Very impressive weight!

Missy: Congrats to your brother!! Fingers crossed its twins!!

Tasia: I love the zoo! Hope you have fun!

Zee: Thats great the rod is coming out. One of Ashlea's eyes waters a lot, not sure if its a problem though.

Hungry, fussy baby better go....will try to update her stats after

Hi all just a quick one before I drop mel and her friends at the movies

Santa photos
https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums...hp?photo=11316

Missy gorgeous pic!!!

Mel is a good sport being in santa pic!!

Hi everyone :)

Hope we all had a great day today? I had a ball!! I went to the zoo & I soooooooooo enjoyed myself & so did Jonathan.

Belle- I'm looking forward to next week, I can't wait to start giving him farex. I bet most of u are saying "you say that now" lol.

Missy- I forgot to mention b4, congrats on ur bro & sil, for expecting a baby, that's fantastic :) I had a ball at the zoo, I want gto go to Werriby zoo, maybe when Jonathan is a bit older. How did the photos with santa go? I just saw the pic, beautiful :)


Zee- ehhh no dramas, I know I will get preggers again, I have this feeling that it will take me six months like last time, who knows maybe sooner. That's great that ur doing the donor, I would love to do that else well, but not sure if hubby would let me. Hope u & Lucas getter soon sweety :hug:


Tannis- I loved it too, I want to go back hehehehe.

Deleted

Missy: Great photo of the kids!! They all look fantastic!

Tasia: Is the marine animal section finished yet? It was under construction when we went in May.

Zee: I'll give that a go and ask next time....I should have mentioned it when we saw the CHN. Ashlea is getting the leap frog thing too.

Fri's appt went pretty well. The CHN asked if I had any concerns about J and I said "I know i will get a slap on the wrists but he's still having bottles" she said to throw the bottles in the bin and throw something sloppy on top so I wouldn't be tempted to get it out! I haven't given him a bottle since.....last night was hell! He screamed, sobbed, could hardly breathe cause of the crying for hours! He kept saying he was hungry too which made me feel so bad! He eventually fell alseep on me and I fell asleep too in his bed. Then he woke at 4am and did it all over again, he asked for some water, I gave it to him and again he eventually went to sleep....I hate hearing him cry like that! Other than that his checkup went well, she said at his age he should be able to say 50 words (i would have thought it would be a lot more) but he would say at least 500 or more I reckon, there is 23 ppl in chris's fam alone plus animals, numbers, colours, shapes etc.
Jayden's Stats:
18mths 2.5yrs
Weight: 12.45kg 14.5kg
Length: 80cm 91.5cm
HC: 48.5cm not measured
Ashlea's Stats:
3mths 4mths
Weight: 5.77kg 6.42kg
Length: 56.2cm(2mths) 61.5cm
HC: 38cm (2mths) 41.7cm
CHN said that Ashlea's gains weren't great and would like to see her gain more than 100g (average) a week. I told her that she doesn't feed more than what I am offering and she is happy, content, alert and definitely not skinny...I'm happy with the way she is so if she gains more thats good but it will be because Ashlea wants to feed more not because I'm force feeding.

Anyway I better go to bed....fingers crossed Jayden sleeps through!!

Blooming health nurses not happy with 100 grams a week!!!!!!!!!!! I have had same argument since Jacob was born!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In a world of obesity you would think thet would be happy with any gain and a happy content baby who is developing normally!!!!!!!!!!!!! grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

sorry vent over

Tan babe - if it makes you feel better - Ash was born lighter than Miss M and weighs more than she does now. I don't think she puts on even 100g a week - but she is growing in proportion - i think your CHN has forgotten that THAT is a sign of good growth.

Hi to everyone else. Got a busy day (niece's christening) so can't stop to chat, hope all are well and having a great weekend!!

*mwah*

Morning!

Missy.. oh yeh bummer! Well least thats another brand of the same thing you can look out for. Even google it. Oh your santa photo turned out great!! I loye that theyre all smiling!

Tan.. oh good one with the bottles! hows he going?

Tasia.. good to hear you had a great day at the zoo hun. I think you needed a day like that hey.

Oh Keiras only putting on about the same as Jacob and Ash too. Shes still only drinking 150mls if that and you should see the size of her. She had a huge growth spurt at the beginning. But shes happy, sleeping through the night, is nearly in a size 0 so i couldnt careless what the nurses say about that. lol.. plus i dont even go to the clinic now. Only for her check ups she has to have. If i had a question about her or a concern then i may go but yeh i think shes doing fine. So yeh dont worry about that seriously.. i think you know in yourself if theyre growing ok or not.

So picked up Keira's christmas ball yesterday looks great! Better than ours! lol. So may have to get ours redone sometime. Bought my KK's pressie!! And thats about it.

DH let me sleep in this morning while he got up with the kids which was lovely. Think i might go make him some bacon and eggs in return.

Have a great sunday!

Howd'y all

Hope you all having a nice weekend. Im not going to do anything today, I was going to Iron but my head is thumping. Im going to relax and watch DVD's

Both kids are well and Liam is back in bed.

Callum watching fox and Matt just laying on the lounge before he goes out to mow the Lawn.

Thanks for the congrat Feeb. Im still in shock. Oh I think these nursed should relax abit. Mine is really good and is happy if im happy.

Anastasia thanks hun. Yes the santa photos went ok. Callum was the one we were always trying to get him to smile or look at the camera. Liam and Melissa just smiled all the time. Santa's beard kept flying into liams face...lol the fan was on and it was so funny.

Oh Zee I love looking at peoples houses with lights on. Oh I remember where your house is and ive only been there once. Nothing going on:shhh:...hehehe Just kidding hun.;) have fun at the baptism.

TAnis dont worry about the nurse. Waht a biatch. I say as long as the kiddies are putting on weight isnt that what counts. Your kids look healthy. Dont worry. I love how you have just added to the chart so you can see how it was last time. I might have to do that.

Arimeh have fun at the christening.

Kell yes im still going to keep looking. I so want that car garage now...lol but he will get for his 3rd bday. Oh Keira is so healthy to look at. she is a porker. Nothing wrong with that little one. Oh nice about the ball hun and evern better about he sleep in. Way to go DH. Awwww your a good wife making him bacon and eggs. You can come here if you want as im starving:lol:

Well hi to the rest of you lovely ladies and of cause Bear. Hope you all having a nice weekend.

BBL

Bye

Feeb: Can't win either way I don't think....Another CHN told me after 3mths old they usually gain less than 150g's a week

Mel: I agree, and Miss M is healthy! Have fun at the christening!

Kell: OMG she's nearly in size 0! Ashlea is just getting into 00, still fits most 000. I'm not worried about what she said, thats why I told her basically that I didn't care she is fine the way she is. Jayden is going pretty good without the bottles, he has a whinge on and off but we get through it. Not long after i posted last night, he came in to me and asked for one...I told him they are in the bin and he can have water instead...so far so good.



Gotta run....making pasta for xmas day (why can't we just buy it???)

sorry, no personals again =)

We just came home after buying a roomba (robotic vacuum cleaner). It rocks. Been meaning to buy one for ages. I'm thinking now that it doesn't matter if it actually cleans or not - it's worth every cent watching Linden play with it =)))) It works by detecting walls and where it has been, and Linden keeps confusing it by jumping in front of where it is going or laying in some random area that it is trying to vacuum, so it turns around and goes elsewhere only to find Linden again! Poor roomba =) Even if it normally WOULD work, I think there's little chance of it getting a good vacuum in while there's a crazy part-leopard confusing it! PMSL

Shoulda bought one years ago =)))

What a quiet day!

Missy: How was your day of watching DVD's? Sounds good! Yeah I'm not too worried, just so sick of conflicting information when I go there, the LC is really good and maybe 1 or 2 CHN's the others are just judgmental biarches!!

SW: Roomba sounds great and entertaining!! I'd love one but I'm sure Jayden will have it broken in 5mins haha

Didn't end up making the pasta, we went to the Warehouse and bought Jayden a blow up pool (one big enough for us to get in too. We showed SIL's and they went on about...did you know its xmas soon why didn't you wait, why does he need it now, you won't be able to buy him anything soon he will have everything, blah blah blah....I cracked it cause I'm sick of ppl telling me I can't buy something for my own children! I couldn't give a $hit if they couldn't afford it when their kids were little. I was a bit mean though I said to Jayden in front of everyone that we can't keep the pool because his Zia's didn't think it was a good idea he had it and I'll take back his other xmas pressies too cause he doesn't need anything. 1 SIL said not to take offence by it and I said I will because its no one elses business what I buy MY son, we were just showing it because Jayden was excited about it. Another SIL later was whinging about her 19yo daughter wanting to move in with her BF, they already stay at each others houses so no different really....well she is too young to do that they shouldn't be staying the night with each other, I said Chris and I had been living together for 2 yrs at her age and she said Yes and I don't agree with that either, don't get me started on that! WTF!! Chris and I have been together for 11yrs! Ok we aren't married but who cares?? She is such a b!tch when she wants to be! There was more to it all but I won't go on about it, they just make me so pi$$ed off sometimes!!
Ok vent over......
I put up the xmas tree tonight, Chris helped with the branches and I am half way through putting the lights on....I hate the lights, it takes too long! I'll get Jayden to help with the decorations tomorrow. Well better go finish the lights.

Hey everyone. <3

Missy - Cute Santa photo! Congrats on the baby news in your family. I hope with the new year your family won't have such a bad run. :hug:

Tan - WTF!? I'm so glad you told SIL to shove it. What's it to them what you buy? Seriously. AND WTF at the nurse chick. It's those nurses like that, that make people not go back. :clap: For the stats. Ash is perfect. YAY! for no bottles with Jayden. It must have been so hard with the crying. You did greattt! We were lucky that it was easy to get rid of bottles and dummies with DS1. I can only hope that Bubbablue does just as well went the time it right. What kinda pasta are you making for Christmas day?
Oh yeah, Bubbablue is a piggie. He mostly drinks his full bottle of 200ml each time. Lately he's had a few where he has only had 180ml cause he's too tired to stay awake.

Kell - Woohoo for your DH letting you sleep in!! If only mine would think about me more then himself sometimes.

Mel - I hope the Christening went great. How'd it all go?

Zee - YAY! you're getting the rod out today. How'd the baptism go? I didn't know Laila's birthday was so close to Christmas. The leap frog thing you got Lucas sounds really cute. I'm still trying to decide what little things I can get Bubbablue.

SW - Lol @ Linden. That's funny. Those Roomba's sounds really good.

Alright weekend here.
We got alot of our Christmas shopping done for the boys yesterday since we didn't have DS1 with us. He was at a Christmas party with my sister. It's like at a fun park thing with watr slides, rides, etc. Her work takes everyone there, so she takes DS1 along too. He got to see Santa and got a Tamagotchi. Strange present, I know.. but he's loving it. (I secretly am too. :shhh:)
We also used yesterdays Elijah-free-day to put Christmas lights up on the house. We had to throw out heaps of old ones so we have to get a couple more today then it's done. Yippeeee!!!

I was so upset at DP last night. He just doesn't get it that I want to spend time with him. Even if it's just doing nothing. While MIL was here she even commented to him and was telling him that I just wanted to spend time with him. How could he not see it. It's so obvious. Yet, he doesn't choose to spend time with me ever. As many times as I say it to him he still doesn't get it. I feel like he takes me for granted. :wall::wall::wall:

I got the wrong farex the other day so we haven't started that yet. I couldn't be bothered to go get the right one yet. Lol.
We also got Elijah's highchair out and I cleaned it all up. Bubbablue seems to like it. Yay!

:hello: Pixie, Belle, Feeb, Sweetpea, Mez, and anyone else I might have accidentally missed.
Have a great day.

xx

Morning all,

Wow you all talked up a storm when I last logged on we were up to pg 2 now it's 6 lol... Don't know if I can remember everyones post so forgive me if I don't respond to you in my personals.

Tenny - Oh hun these DH of ours really have no clue, spending time with them is all we want to do and they just want to do their own thing. My DH is the same, I have been wanting to go out for dinner for ages but he just doesn't cause I'm not ready to have someone else look after Isabel yet! I said we can go with her but he just makes up excuses. Woohoo on getting your Christmas shopping done you're very good.

Mel - I hope you had a great time at your nieces Christening.

Tannis - sounds like your SIL's have too much of their own opinions about your kids, don't worry about them they are just jealous cause you spoil your kids. We bought Izzy a pool too for Christmas one big enough that it will fit us too lol. What sort of pasta are you guys going to make?? Is Chris Italian?? Hope you and Jayden have fun decorating your Christmas tree today!

Missy - Congratulations for your brother and his wife being pregnant that is wonderful news can't wait to hear if it is twins :clap:

Kell - you are so luck that your DH let you sleep in, mine is really starting to pee me off as he really isn't helping me with Izzy just plays with her and then complains that he is tired :(

Belle - I'm really good sweet, how are you?? I love your new ticker photo your girls are beautiful.

Well not much going on here, Isabel has been really unsettled lately and I really don't know what is wrong. Always whinging when on her play mat and just really clingy??

Hope you all have a great day, I can hear the little monkey so better go.

A BIG :hello: to everyone I have missed.

Mez - Bubbablue has been really clingy, unsettled and just constantly whinging whenever he's on his play mat too. I'm not really sure what's going on either. :dunno:
No ideas here either. Sorry I can't help.

What is it with our DP/DH's geezzzz.. :wall:

Hey folks .... been MIA for a few days, busy weekend and today has pretty much just been a PITA..... could go into much detail but basically after spending more than an hour trying to persuade DD to go to sleep so I could get some lunch, I went into the bedroom to find that the rain was coming in at such an angle it got the wall, floor, bedside table and sheets all wet, had to change the sheets, mind you she still wasn't asleep so I fed her to sleep and made some toast, and she woke up before I even finished the first slice! :wall::wall:
ANYHOO MOVING ON!
SW - lol on the roomba! sounds like a great new toy for Linden! how does it do on the vacuuming? I might be tempted, I'm not a fan of our Dyson upright. I mean what kind of vacuum cleaner doesn't have a retractable cord?
Tan - where do you get headbands for Ash? I have been looking but haven't found any nice ones for Beth. And don't worry I'm sure Ash is doing beautifully. Beth is such a chunk I'm starting to worry she is going too much the other way! Weighed her this morning and she is 7.2kg :o no wonder I'm getting tennis elbow from carting her around!
Mez - Beth has been a bit like that too today not sure what it's all about :dunno:
Tenny - good on you on the Chrissy shopping.... haven't even started yet! Although finally got KK today so just need to wrap and post that one. :hug: about your DH.... hope he gets it soon!
Zee = glad you finally got that rod out, sounds like it was really bad for you.
sorry no more personals atm, grizzling baby ..... but hugs to all mwah!

Hi ya all

Well didnt do much today. Went for coffee at a friends house then came home then talked to another friend for about 1/2hr. Got dinner prepared and then took Melissa to a job interview.

Just spoke to brother and they are only having one child but they are 10weeks 2 days.:dance:.. Im so excited.

Tanis hun I only watch one when DH came home. Not like when your by yourself. Wasnt that good. OMG tell SIL to shut the F up. How dare she tell you what to by. I agree its none of her business. So what if its xmas in 2 weeks. I gave Callum his bike early because he saw it. Not that I had intended to get him that in the first place its only cause jesse and Isaac had one that I got it. So I gave it to him and not at xmas. And you know what Tanis, Why, BECAUSE I FUC*ING CAN. Im sorry but tell her and anyone else to mind their own business. If you want to buy your children some thing then you do it and if you dont want to wait till xmas to give them then so be it!!! Ok hun im done...hehehe..:hug:

Tenny thanks hun I love the photos. Yes lets hope this is the start of good news. Tenny I havent evern put liam in the high chair. I didnt think he would fit. I might try it tomorrow. Mine has staps in it to stop him from falling over, does your have that too?? Im sorry your DP cant see that you want to spend time with him. I hope things pick up for you hun:crossfingers::hug:

Thanks Ayapi about the photos. Nope now twins but Im sure they are just happy to be pg.

Oh pix sorry your little sweet Beth is giving you a hard time. Its horrible when they dont sleep. I hope she gets better for you soon hun.

hi Kell, Kristy, sweetpea, zee, belle, Bear, SW, Feeb, Anastasia,Arimeh and anyone else ive missed

Good evening ladies & Bear :)

Hope we all had a good day today. I sent out my KK pressie this morning :) I went to the factory & my parents house today. Was going to do grocery shopping today, but I will do it 2m.

Missy- Great news about ur Brother & sil's baby :)

Pixie- Sorry to hear that u didn't get to finish off ur lunch.


Tenny- I hear you sweety, that's exactly the same thing with me & hubby. Yayyy on the highchair. I'm getting farex 2m, so i will start giving Jonathan's ceral on thurs. Yaaaaaaaaaaaay for doing the xmas shopping, I haven't done mine yet will do it next week.

BIG HELLO TO EVERYONE ELSE MMMWWWHHHAAA!!!!! :grouphug:

hi guys

Sorry haven't been in doing personals or anything - busy weekend, busy at work and all that. hard to find the time to sit down and try and figure out what to say to everyone!!

So :hug: to all with grizzly bums... and "up yours" to the people that are peeving my buddies off ;)

SW - pmsl @ Linden... such a funny little thing...

Pixie - grr on the rain coming in.. hope nothing is tragically ruined...

Gotta say a special THANKS to my KK (and I'm sending mine hopefully tomorrow!!! was going to do it today but got overwhelmed by a family law problem) Aricyn ripped straight into his - so I hope KK doesn't mind that it didn't last till xmas... he LOVES it too... chucked a tantie when we tried to take it off him so he could bathe... lol.... and Miss M's present is sooo gorgeous - will take a pic with her in it and post it :)

Thats all from here - christening - HOT.. was a stinker here yesterday - spent 2 hours sweating my guts out and watching DS jump up and down on my sisters bed.. hahahaha... I'm so evil.....

Anyhoo - gotta keep keepin on... house ain't gonna clean itself... wish it bloody would though...

Pixie - OMG. What a bad dayyyy. I hope DD sleeps better tonight and from now on. We're still having issues with the day sleeps. His eyes are so red most the time cause it's fighting it. Although today was one of the better days from the past week. :hug:

Missy - Our highchair has the straps like over the should and across the lap ones too. So he's secure. It also lays back so I have had him in it mostly slightly tilted back. He loved sitting up watching me in the kitchen making dinner. DS1 and I were singing songs to him too. He looks tiny in it still though but oh so cute!!

Tasia - I hope the Farex goes good on thurs! :dance:

:hug: to everyone.

DS1 was a little brat from the afternoon onwards. :wall:
Lucky Bubbablue is quiet and calm when we're out. I don't know how I would handle a screaming baby aswell as a brat at the same time out in public.

xx

Tenny babe she sleeps beautifully at night and lately she has been good in the daytime too.... today was just a freak!
anyway bed time now so big :hello: to all!

Hello all sorry been missing a bit!

been a bit stressed about Jacob and whether he can hear or not!!! not turning to noises etc i started a thread about it seeing mchn thurs for weight anyway (rang to change and told her why she told me to relax and see her thurs)

JACOB IS 5 MONTHS TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!! :leap::loveshower::hooray::bluecheer::bluecheer:

Pixie hope u have better day tomoroow.

tassy how r things with dh? good luck with leaving shopping to next week i had pram rage on weekend shoppping lol

hugs and hello to everyone else

Tenny/Mez: I think it was just ravioli maybe something else too but not sure what.

Tenny: Jayden was like that with his bottles when he was younger, he would drink 240ml easily at about 7 or 8mths old, sometimes cried for more! Yay for finishing the boys xmas pressies. LOL re tamagotchi, I always wanted one of those and I wanted a Furby too, when I worked at Target (years ago) I had a display one on my counter in the music section, I played with it all day! Take a pic of your house! I love xmas lights! DP's have no idea, Chris never wants to spend time with me either unless I am busy doing something else like on BB LOL.

Mez: I told SIL that I can afford to buy my kids things so I will. Chris's dad is italian and we are having a Italian themed xmas day. Izzy will get over the clinginess, it will just be a phase....hope she is over it soon though!

Pix: Lucky Beth doesn't do that all the time huh? I get put out when Ash doesn't co-operate because usually she is good. Ashlea's pink headband and green/blue headband are from Pumpkin Patch and the white one with the big flower is from Best and less that one also comes in pink which I am thinking about getting too. OMG Beth has gained great weight!! What was she born?

Missy: (and everyone who commented) thanks for the support! The way I see it is a 2 yr old has no concept of time, so whether it was from xmas or not, it makes no difference to him and if it wasn't so hot we might have waited.....I didn't say all that to them, I didn't feel I needed to justify it. I think next time I'll say what you said "because I Fu*ing can!" LOL. They both called me today, one to see if I was going to morning tea (we always go on a Monday), I said no but gave no reason. The second SIL wanted us to buy her DD the 3rd bag in a luggage set for xmas (Chris is buying for her in our KK) so she can get 15% off even though she doesn't need the 3rd bag, its going to cost over $200 for the 3 with the disc, so I said thats a lot of money on something DD doesn't need isn't it?? Then I said its up to Chris he is buying for her not me.

Mel: How you going?? Poor thing, being busy with home and work!

:dance:HAPPY 5mths JACOB!!!:dance:

I have already sent a PM to our KK but I wanted to say a huge thank you publicly as well! THANK YOU! Jayden loved opening them both while Ashlea slept under her play mat. He loved his books and Ashlea's too! Here is a pic and here too.

I will be MIA for the rest of this week, I have a friend(ShereeJoy) coming over tomorrow with her 2 boys...Yay I finally get to meet baby Riley!! Wednesday I might pop in but want to spend some time with Jayden, Friday I am going down to Hervey Bay to see Sheree again. So have a good week girls and bear

Morning!

Now to catch up.

Tan.. have fun with your friends. Woohooo for your kids KK! Oh peh i woulda told your SIL too p!ss off and mind her own business (as you did ;)) So what if you bought him a pool as you said its your choice what you buy your son. At least he will be able to get more use out of it if y ou give it now then wait until after Christmas.. a whole extra month.. and summer doesnt stay around that long. I buy Jesse matchbox cars every now and then when we go out.. so whats the difference between that. Stupid SIL! Need to pull her head out of the hole shes been living in. Oh well done with the bottles! Glad its worked! Yep shes a porker here. Though see it depends on the brand.. she can fit some 000 but is in mostly 00 and can fit 0.

Feeb.. wow happy 5 months Jacob! Have you tried sneezing next to him? Not that i guess you can do that when you want to.. but Jesse was the same at one stage, i didnt know if he could hear or not.. then DH sneezed and oh he screamed. Have you tried banging pots or anything when hes not looking? Hope hes ok.

Tenny.. :hug: oh hun i feel the same. Jesse does the same sometimes when we're out but im so thankful Keira is such a happy baby. Helps hey. Oh hun men arent like us, they dont think like us. I learnt that about DH a little while ago. You have to tell them when you want something or to do something. Have you tried just making plans and telling him what you want to do or that you are spending time together? Hope he pulls his finger out soon. Oh good stuff on your christmas shopping!

Mel.. oh woohoo on your KK.. youll have to take a pic or tell us what you got!

Missy.. great news about your brother!!

Pixie.. oh dear.. hope she slept better for you last night :hug: Im finding Keira doesnt want to sleep much during the day anymore.. will have maybe 2 or 3 naps through the day.

Mez.. ahhh clingy could be teething. Keiras the same. Will only sit on her rocker or mat for a little while before she starts to carry on.. as soon as you pick her up shes fine. Usually a sign of teething.. being theyre all nearly 5 months, its about the right time too. Oh hun im sorry your DH is being a *****head. Have you asked him to take her at all so you can have some time to yourself to have a bath or whatever? Oh my DH can be the same but have found i have to ask (which i know i shouldnt!) him to do something or watch the kids and he happily does. Hope he pulls his finger out for you and lets you have some time for you.

Had Keira weighed yesterday and our little porker is 7.6kg and 68cm long. She is the same length but heavier than my gf's almost 9 month old!! lol. though she has small babies.

I thought things were starting to pick up for me with my anxiety.. had a few days of nothing and was just fine. See im not depressed or anything, am happy enough and have found i also feel better when have company. But yesterday was out with Kristy, she was in seeing the doctor while we waited in the waiting room. Jesse had a dummy in his mouth as he was going to sleep and kinda started gagging with a funny look on his face. Well, hot flush came over me and i started freaking out he was going to be sick. He was fine, but i got up and went for a walk and had to talk myself out of it saying to myself hes fine, im ok. Then last night.. nothing to do with any of the kids being sick or anything, just had an anxiety attack where i was having trouble breathing and had alot of tension and stress. Felt if i thought about being sick enough i probably could. DH got me out of it by just taking my mind off it. Seemed to work. But yeh. I feel fine now. Im yet to go back to the doc. Its just hard finding time. I totally forgot to look for that remedy stuff.. will have to make a note next time im out. Will have to keep busy today.. lol well theres so much house work to do i should be fine with that.

86cm long Kel?!?!?! is that a typo???

Happy 5 months Jacob hun.

:clap::dance::clap::dance::clap::dance:

Yeah Tenny mine is the same but doesnt go back. Thats a great idea. Im going to give Liam his farex after this post in Callum's high chair. Should be good. Yes If im making dinner and Liam is awake he sits in the pram that is inside at all times. I have bloody 3 prams but they all come in use...lol

Hey folks!
Beth is sitting here in the rocker pretending she is not tired but every time I look away her eyes close or she yawns.... I look back and she tries to look like she's awake! LOL.... finally went to the pump class yesterday which was good, but I'm sore today!
Tan - I know what you mean, she is usually so good when she is a bit fussy I feel put out too! LOL Thanks for the tips about the headbands I will try Best & Less. And she was 3.44 when she was born...
Feeb - :bluecheer: HAPPY FIVE MONTHS JACOB!!! :bluecheer:
I am sure his hearing is fine babe, did you get the newborn hearing test when he was in hospital? Beth doesn't answer to her name either. She will startle to a loud noise, but not all the time. if she is engrossed in something else sometimes she doesn't seem to notice.
Mel - nothing ruined hon just a PITA
Missy LOL at the three prams
Kel - I hope the doc can do something for your anxiety... sounds horrible for you
Well better get on and so something useful while madam is having a snooze! hope everyone has a great day and big :hello: to SW, Mez, Tenny, Tasia, and anyone else I missed!

Morning all,

Well Isabel was great last night, she slept from 8pm till 7.45am this morning woohoo... She is currently asleep again so I've managed to have my shower and make my bed.

Kell - thanks sweetie, yes I think that she may be starting to teeth too as her hands are in her mouth full time and she is sucking them full steam ahead lots of drool happening there... Oh yes I have to ask my DH all the time to do things for me with Isabel. Like tonight I have my MG Christmas dinner so he is looking after Isabel but then again she will be going to sleep by the time I head out. I hope your anxiety gets better sounds like panic attacks to me sweet. I would make a time to see your Doc somewhere in between doing everything that we do... :hug: to you if you need to talk I'm here for you.

Missy - that is great that your getting lots of sleep and your little ones are sleeping through the night. It's so much better when they do hey!

Pixie - A pump class hey, I have yet to get off my butt to do any exercise, they only thing I do is walking I'm really not motivated at the moment. In the new year I will cause I have to go to Fiji for a wedding and want to wear my bikini's again...

:bluecheer: HAPPY 5 MONTHS JACOB :bluecheer:

Oh and a BIG THANK YOU to our KK Isabel is going to love her pressie, I will take a photo of her in her outfit and we will get lots of use of our gift too..

Well today I'm taking Izzy to Rhyme time at our local library and then have my MG Chrissie dinner. Oh and on Friday we are going to Sydney for a wedding so really looking forward to that!!

Hi to all the rest

hello peoplez :)

Well I went to do some grocery shopping today, my god the trolley was so full i think i needed two trolleys, i had to shove things in there to fit hehehe. I put Jonathan in the trolley chair for the first time, he loved it. I do my grocery every fornight & spend up to $400-450. That is just the three of us. When i look at the trolley i'm like omg, wat did i buy?

Feeb- :dance::dance: HAPPY 5 MONTHS GORGEOUS JACOB :dance::dance:

Mary- The photos are just toooo cute. That's great on Izzy's sleep sweety. Where did u get them done? I wanna get Jonathan's photo done as well but hubby is like we got enough photos as is it, yeah in the photo album, much not much on display. But anyway.

Pixie- Jonathan is the same, when i look away he yawns like there's no 2m, & when i look at him he smiles hehehe.

Hi all,

Hi to everyone else

Well another good sleep. So glad. Kids still sleeping now:dance:

Just about to get into it abit. Trying to tidy up for the girls, but not doing to much as Jesse, Isaac and Callum will trash the house anyways....lol:lol:

Anastasia how easy is it to spend lots of $$$$ on food. Once you got the nappies/formular there is almost $60 there.

Oh Feeb sorry you froze at your MG. When do you find out about Jacobs hearing. Sorry you probably already told.

Well liam is awake. Better get him up.

Have a good day all.

Good morning Ladies and Gentleman.
Quietish here lately. I did go to do a short post yesterday but the site went feral and didn't load so I gave up then I was bust for the rest of the day.

I'm slow.. I'm sorry.
HAPPY FIVE MONTHS HANDSOME JACOB!!!
and I'm really slow..
HAPPY FIVE MONTHS PRINCESS REAGHAN!!! for the other week. I'm sorry I must have missed it before.

Kell - Great stats with Keira! I feel a bit better that someone elses Bubba is closeish to Bubbablue's weight. Lol. I don't feel like I have a monster pig! I hope the doctor can help with your anxiety. :hug:

Mez - Those professional photos are fantastic! I wanna get some done of the boys together. We have Pixiepotos from when Elijah was little but they don't come here anymore so that sucks. I'll have to look around next year.

Feeb - The weather here is feral too. Hot then freezing cold. I hope you had a gret to with your MG regardless of the weather. Good luck with Jacobs hearing getting checked. I hope it's all fine.

Missy - 3 prams?? Whoa. I'm glad you get use out of them all. We just have a pram and a stroller. I use the stroller here when we got for walks so it saves me getting the pram outta the car. He looks so tiny in it though. LOL. I secretly want a new stroller too, but I doubt DP will let me get one. :P

Pixie - Ouch after your pump class. I think I'd be sore for a week if I started one of those classes. I'm sooooo unfit.

Tan - Have a a great time with your friend. WOW! $200 is a heap to be spending when she doesn't exactly need it. whoa!

:hello: everyone else. I hope you're having a great week so far.

Kell/Missy/Kristy & Kiddlets - Have a great day together!

DS1 had another orientation yesterday at Big School. He went great again. Ordered his uniform and got his hat. The other day he tried a shirt for size and he wouldn't take it off. Lol. I'm hoping he's this keen next year too.

Bubbablue is being lazy again with his rolling.:wall:
He's becoming more and more of a mummy's boy each day too. Hehehehe. (I love it)

Not much else from us.
xx

Sorry these are a little late, been awfully busy!! But anyways, here goes =)

Happy 4 months, Beth!!!
Happy 5 months, Jacob!
Happy 5 months, Reaghan!

and to any that I've missed.

Well, we got our KK pressie a couple of days ago, and it is GORGEOUS!!! I've managed to get it washed by taking over my SIL's laundry (as we STILL don't have any furniture and such!), and here it is!! It is still too big on her, but sooooooo cute!! Thanks, Secret Santa!!!

On the topic of KK, Jayden did look pretty excited, tan =) Great pics!

Heading out to Ikea today to buy some light fittings... Not feeling like this place is home at all - am so used to it being MIL's house that now I'm living in it it still seems like her house and that I'm just a house guest living out of a suitcase. That should improve when we have our own furniture and all our clothes in the wardrobes, but for now most of her robes and things are still full of their clothes, kitchen cupboards still have a lot of their things, etc. So am changing some light fittings now to help with making it feel more like our place and not hers - just need to make it a little different, I think! Will put hers all back on when we move out after our house is built =) Also bought a good espresso machine, so that also helped a bit... Now have a nice, modern, sexy piece of kitchen equipment in stainless steel, so not all the appliances are white any more! Much more me ;)

Can't wait for our furniture to arrive!! Cats are all settled in and happy now, so that's a bonus =) Anyways, must be away!

Waves to all
