Well i took jonathan to his app with the health nurse today and all is good. We are changing his feeding around. He will now be having brekky in the morning when he gets up which is 6.30-7am so let's say he gets up at 7am he will have brekky then 7.30 he will have bottle 150mls. And lunch will be 12.30pm then bottle at 1pm 150mls, Then 5.30 dinner then bottle at 6pm 150mls, then last bottle at 10pm 150m ls. So i'm taking it from there and see how he goes, i did it before and he didn't chuck.

Hi all,

Glad to see that all the bubs are doing well.

In regards to food, bub is still only on tastes and has 5 or more bf a day. She is not that keen and I am not going to push it.

Bub can crawl backwards now and is starting to try forward and she can sit all on her own.

Hope everyone is well.

Evening.

Jesse went really well today at his orientation, considering hes still not 100%. He had a couple of melt downs.. as you do when youre 2! But he played well and loved it. So we'll see how he goes come Thursday with me not there!

Tasia.. yep that sounds good. Yeh what Mel said.. i mean cut back like you are but stay at 4 bottles. Keiras on 4 bottles atm too. Only cut back to the 3 when hes not finishing the 4.

Tenny.. oh Jesse gets a heat rash all the time too! Not nice. Um.. i just cut Keira back to 4 bottles when she started her 2nd meal. She has them now one when she wakes around 7am.. she then has breaky around 8ish.. next bottle around 11-11.30am.. next bottle at 3.30pm-4ish.. dinner at 5.30-6pm and then last bottle at around 8.30pm.. then shes in bed after that. What are you giving him for breaky? Maybe hes not liking it? You can always try custard or something like that.

Well im so tired i thik im going to get an early night. Jess was up 3 times during the night last night with his cold.. damn thing. Hope tonights a better night as hes really worn out from today.

Nite all..

Missy: Have a great time!

SW: WOOHOO on Alyssa crawling! LOVE the video! We didn't (and still haven't) babyproofed the house oh other than plugs in the power points, other than that we have just taught Jayden not to go in my cupboards, he has a cupboard of his own with his plates/bowls/cups etc in it, he can go nuts in there.....Hopefully Ashlea is the same and not bother.

Pix: What routine are you doing with her at night (if any), hopefully she will start going to sleep for you again soon! That great Beth loves her Farex!

Feeb: How are you? Hope Jacob is eating soon, poor bub!

Kell: Hope Jesse is better soon, poor boy he gets hit hard when he gets sick doesn't he? Don't think you need a script for demazin. Hope you got an early night, I did last night.....10.30pm I couldn't keep my eyes open after I feed Ashlea so I forgot about everything I had to do and just slept! IL's are here tonight so probably won't be early.

Tas: Hope the new feeding routine works out, thats great he didn't chuck today! Great stats too!

Mel: LOL I think Mehkelti will walk and talk first too, Ash is developing pretty slow too but I love it that way haha and least Mehkelti is happy laying there! Ashlea is hating it now cause you can see she wants to move (probably to get away from Jayden LOL)

Tenny: Woohoo on getting your hair done, how good does it feel??! I need mine done soon but can't be bothered! Hope Elijah's heat rash stays away, not nice is it?

Sweetpea: Miss R sounds like she is doing great! When did she start solids and what is she having?
I was so by the book with Jayden (being the 1st I guess), not sure I'll be as strict when Ashlea starts hehe.


I went shopping with Jayden and Ashlea yesterday, I don't go often with the 2 unless someone comes with me as Jayden is such a handful! We got there at 8.15am, tried on shoes for J, went to the book shop, stopped for piklets and did the groceries with very little trouble! I think the key is not to have anyone else there for J to show off in front of LOL.

Chris is taking the car tomorrow so I'll have a quiet day at home hopefully!

to anyone I missed

Hi Tannis,

Reaghan started at 6 months and 3 days, though I would not say that she is really on solids as she has only had realy small bits, like not even half a teaspoon.

she has had, apple, corn, potato, avacado, tomato sauce, chicken, spring onion. to name a few. lol.

It has only been the last few days that she has showed more interest in it.

[Arimeh]

Ashlea is hating it now cause you can see she wants to move (probably to get away from Jayden LOL)

PMSL - going by the amount of "love" he gave her when we were there - I can understand!!! lol Won't it be cool in a couple of months time - we can catch up all the time then cos we'll only be an hour & a half's drive away from you guys! woohoo!!

Both kids are sick at the moment, so probably going to take them to the docs (on my own - arggh!) today. Both got temps this morning and really bad coughs. Got stuff all sleep last night cos Miss M was coughing and waking herself up so DH kept going into resettle her (yes I didn't get out of bed - lazy me - but I still woke up all the time)

Better go get ready for the day before DH leaves for work!

Morning..

Well a better night here last night. Jesse slept through woot! He mustve been so warn out from yesterday. I have a dead arm... mustve slept on it.. dont ya hate that.

Tan.. he sure does! Probably making up for the first half of his life where he wasnt sick at all. Thanks hun. Yep you can get the 2+ demazin over the counter so got some of that. I went and lay on the couch after my post and fell asleep there until 10pm then went to bed. So did get alot of sleep.. still feel so tired.. maybe too much sleep? Oh thats great Jayden was so good at the shops for you. Makes it alot less stressful doesnt it.

Mel... oh hope theyre ok. Poor things. Jess has the cough now too.. not fun for them. Hope you can get something that will help. And hope you can get some sort of rest today.

Just a lazy home day today. We all need it. Jess is on the mend has a terrible cough though. Hope hes a bit better for pre-school tomorrow. Will be strange only having Keira all day tomorrow. Im going to miss him i think. Only time ive ever been away from him for that long was when i saw Bon Jovi and stayed at my gf's house over night.

Got some loads of washing to do.. and some house work.. when i can get motivated..

Mel - I hope the kids feel better and behave at the doctors for you.

Kell - I've started giving him that fruit gel stuff. We've found one he likes so that's good. He didn't like the first one we tried. lol. Yesterday we got down to 4 bottles so that's a start. Food twice and stuff. I'm proud.

Sorry at my lack of personals.
