So I don't know whether today is my lucky day or what..
Haydie woke up at like 6:30am and since it was cold I just got him and put him into bed with us. I was still half asleep still, of course. So we both sleep till like 8:30am (Woohoo! DS1 even came and joined us until he got sick of it and went to watch cartoons). I go to change his nappy.. but no nappy on. I'm like "What theeeeee...?" I feel him, feel the bed, feel me... Nothing is wet! The nappy was in his cot, full but sitting in his cot.
I'm thinking today is my lucky day!!

Just imagine if he had done a poo and take his nappy off. It would have been everywhere. On him, me, our beds, maybe DP too.
HAHAHAHAHA

I just wanted to share.

Happy 9 months precious Mehkelti!!

[thepixie]

OMG Tenny that is funny but weird!! Hope he doesn't make a habit of it, you may not be so lucky next time!
Belle hope you feel better soon hon.
I am still battling a cold I got in NZ and Beth is cutting about four teeth at once so I haven't had a decent night's sleep in I can't remember. The Bear took her out to the markets this morning so I could have a sleep in.
HAPPY 9 MONTHS MEHKELTI

Hello!

Mez.. honey how are you doing? Hope youre holding up ok and taking care of yourself. thinking of you.

Tenny.. woah.. that is very lucky! How did his nappy come off? like was he wearing clothes? Very weird!

Pixie.. hope youre feeling better soon hun.. i hate having a cold. Aww poor Beth. Hope they come through soon too for her poor pet.

Well news with us. Keira has decided she doesnt want lumpy food and has skipped that step altogether. So shes gone from puree to feeding herself normal food. Little miss independance! So shes having basically what we eat. I still give her yogurt and fruit puree and jar stuff when we're out (pureed! as she wont eat lumpy jar stuff!) as its easier but yeh. She also can crack a good tanty if she doesnt get her own way or if you dont do something fast enough. Tonight i was about to give her a yogurt as she was whinging she was hungry before dinner was ready. Then Jesse also asked for one so i got up and went to get him a spoon. Boy you should have heard her heiness go off because i wasnt attending to her. Seriously she thinks shes older than she is!

Kristy and i took the boys to our local show today. Oh they had the best day! Jesse was so proud to be able to sit inside a fire truck and on the back of a police motorcycle. He also had a great time patting the animals. Im so glad we went. So much better than the Easter Show.

Happy 9/10 months to all the bubs. Im so slack and always forget. But i cant believe youll all be 1 in 2-3 months!!!! Crazy!!!

Hope everyone is well.

xx

Happy 9 and 10 months to all these babies - can't believe they're all getting so old so fast!!

Tenny - good luck with the hockey!! Sounds fun. I sighed a HUGE sigh of relief about your lucky nappy-less morning in bed!! Can just imagine how icky that could have been

Kellxx - we never even got as far as the mushy foods. Alyssa always refused to eat it. She went straight to finger foods =\ She refuses to eat anything on a spoon, however she WILL eat if it's given to her from chopsticks. Otherwise she'll only eat what she can hold.

Belle - hope you're feeling much better by now!! Loving the pics of your beautiful girls in FB - keep em coming.

Pix - hope you feel better soon!! Hugs your way, babe... And hugs for the gorgeous Miss Beth and her gazillion toothypegs

Mel - love ya and MWAH!!!!!

All going well here... Alyssa has been a bit sick for a few days, but mostly ok. Projectile vomiting in the nights and a temp between 38 and 39, but happy as Larry during the days. Had my SIL look over her and she said it's just something viral, and she was fine. Just manage it with Panadol or Nurofen. Panadol evokes an instant projectile vomit reaction from her, so nurofen it is!

Was just reading the news website and saw an article on a baby who died because the parents didn't get effective treatment for eczema =(((( I HATE that Alyssa has this awful condition. We manage hers really well, and for the most part her skin is perfect - just small breakouts every now and again - but it still sucks that it is something that unmanaged can really be THAT BAD. It sucks that my little girl has a lifetime of skin management to prevent that type of itching, sores and scabbing.

On a happier note, Kellxx and Kristy inspired me to attempt to make Alyssa's first birthday cake myself... I purchased a cake decorating book, some appropriate supplies, and made this trial cake for DHs birthday. For Alyssa's birthday, I'm planning on doing three large A B C blocks in white with bright coloured edging, lettering and pictures on the sides, stacked up and sitting on top of a large chocolate cake coated in a thick ganache. The block cakes will be an Autumnal cake (maple syrup flavoured cake - a Nigella recipe) for the A, Banana cake for the B and a Coconut cake for the C. Two of the blocks will be on the chocolate cake base with the third block sitting on top with an Eeyore toy on top of that surrounded by teeny icing roses that I have been making. I'm also playing around with some different graphics and things to try to make a funky little birthday invitation for her party.

It's sad that our babies are getting so old... I don't want to have to go back to work now and leave her. Can't believe that I was thinking of only taking 6 weeks off because I enjoy my job so much! I don't enjoy it nearly as much as I enjoy my baby - I feel all emotional when I think of spending those days away from her (and it's only 2 days a week).

Oh! And we finally got building approval for the house!! The tenants have moved out of the existing house and we have organised for demolishers to come in and clear the block. We expect to start building in 2.5 - 3 months =)))) We have a new house building blog here.

And that's just about it for us

Hi all

Just want to pop in and say

Happy 9 and 10 months to all you beautiful babies

all is good here and bbl for personals

[thepixie]

Hey folks.... been lurking but feeling terrible so not posting much. Ever since we got back from NZ I have had the worst sore throat, have lost my voice a couple of times, which never happens to me. Hasn't helped that Beth has been cutting her entire top row of teeth - sheesh! Sunday night was like this:
8pm bed, 10.30 dreamfeed, 12.30 wake, bonjela and BF, repeat at 1.30, 2.30, 4am and 5.40... But the good news is that her FOUR top teeth are through the gum and last night she slept right through, with a grizzle here or there but I didn't need to get up so happy, I really needed that!
SW I can't believe how fast it's going either the months are just whizzing by and we are planning for their first birthdays already! The cake sounds amazing BTW!
I am supposed to go back to work at the end of June, and although I don't know what's happening with my job, I find I am ditching the gym (where I would have to leave her for an hour) in favour of finding new playgroups we can go to together!
I am so slack I haven't even posted up our NZ photos yet... will have to do that this week!
Tenny good to hear the hockey went well!
Kel loved your photos on FB of Jesse in the fire engine etc. very cute!
Sweetpea happy 10 months to Reaghan
Missy
big and to everyone, sorry I've been slack, hopefully I will be feeling better soon
