Wow seems ages since we had a new thread!!!!!!!!!!

Hope everyone is well!!

Pixie glad you had a great trip!!!

sorry no time for more just getting onto new thread!

[Arimeh]

Yeah we certainly aren't the chatty bunch we all were when pregnant

Pixie chick - glad you are back *mwah*

hello to everyone else - hope everyone is travelling well and lovin their little bubbas to pieces!

AFM - Miss M is getting into the habit of having one day sleep me thinks.. she had a HUGE sleep yesterday morning - 3.5hours!!! So of course, didn't go down for another one in the arvo, then she fell asleep on her 6.30 bottle, and then she was awake again by 7.30. Not a huge fan of sleep this one. But she is just such a happy, easygoing little munchkin...

Hi all hope you are all well, both my girls have had Chicken Pox so havent been around. Will have to catchup on all your news!

Hugs to everyone

Hi all,

Been awhile since I posted in here, been realy busy with school holidayd and all the kids being here. Reaghan has started to do the one hand walk so don't think it will be far away from walking on own. She is eating well and has started to sleep better at night again after weeks of 2 hourly if lucky feeds over night. She is now eating small bits of cut up meat and vegies that are not mushy.

I can't believe how fast the time has gone with her. I am so glad I decided not to go back to work or would only have another month to go. Though I will be working casaul here and there which will be good.

Hope everyone had a good weekend.

OoO. New thread.

Mel - We're only getting one nap a day here lately even though he clearly needs more but fights it all the way.

Bel - Awh, your poor little girls. I hope the pox didn't cause much trouble for you guys.

Happy 9 months Ash, Tara, and Keira!!

I don't hang around here much anymore (I made a special visit just for you Melly) but hi to all glad i still see you all on FB xxx

[Arimeh]

[feeb]

Awww sweet of youto hunt down thread!!! I have most of you on fb so follow you all and your cute babys and toddlers there!!!

2 weeks till DS1 is 3 woo hoo (and 4 days later DS2 is 18 months)

[kristy J]

I almost fell over when my emil said someone had commented in this thread...

I haven't been on BB in probably a year, time flies when your a mumma....

I cant believe they are 3 either, Burger King Party tomorrow! making a cake today. How is everyone celebrating their kiddies birthdays?

on an update: twins doing really well, sebi has just hit that sooky stage and very cheeky and cute so i could kill him any time now ... Caleb is great he is so easy & really very smart but emotionally very young so maybe he'll skip the sooky stage. we have our 3 year clinic app next week so here is preying caleb is catching up he tends to fail his mile stones, I'm not too worried tho he was premi and they did say that he could have a few issues after his bad entry into the world....

[Jewel]

Yeah, wow. 3 already!!!

Not really sure how we're celebrating Hayden's birthday. I better get onto that.
Good luck with your 3yr checkups.

[thepixie]

Beth is already talking about her birthday - she wants a party, with cupcakes, and balloons. We will probably have a few of her friends here, or at a park or something. We are lucky, all the big toy sales are right before her birthday LOL. Hope the twins had an awesome birthday Kristy. Mel I love the photos of your kids, Kelti really has that Stevie Nicks look going on. We are all doing well, she is really sweet with her little brother although day care tell me she got upset and told them she doesn't like the baby because he gets to stay at home with Mummy. Love to all, see you on FB!

[feeb]
