CONGRATS JESS!!!! that's very exciting news!!! You are the first from our buddies aren't you?? Hopefully I won't be too far behind....

Well, I have news. But it's a huge surprise and I can't risk it getting out... so everyone must keep it a secret for me.....(ESPECIALLY YOU REBECCA!!! can't have my mum finding out!!!!)

Adam and have decided, we are getting married in September. FINALLY!! after all these years we are getting hitched. We are having a surprise wedding at our engagement party. My folks don't know, and won't until they see me walk in, in my dress. Most things are booked. Going for first dress fitting in 3 weeks..... all pretty exciting. We're not 'technically' engaged as of yet... we are waiting until about July for that to happen, so as to not give anything away.

So.... that's pretty much why I haven't been around heaps. Been very busy. Have only known about it for 3 weeks now...


Anyway, Al going well here. All I hear all day is 'dad dad dad'. We're still having constipation issues ( in a breastfed baby LMAO), but will hopefully have them sorted in the next few weeks.

Other than that same old..... 7th and 8th tooth nearly cut through. and geez it hurts when Lach bites. LOL

Have a good day all. And congrats again Jess!!!

Wow! Just jumped on quickly to catch up with posts and so much news! Nicky - that is fantastic news!! I absolutely love the idea of a surprise wedding - and you can do things exactly how you want to without anyone else stressing you out (Long story - my mum turned into Mother of the Bridezilla before our wedding! Super stressful!). Do you have any ideas about your dress yet? You will have to keep us all updated on the details! Does Lachlan almost have 8 teeth already? That would be so cute. Tom only has 2 and i am hoping that's all he ever gets .

Congratulations Jess! It is so exciting! The first of our baby buddies! Your doctor sounds amazing - it would be great knowing you have his support.

Emma - hope all goes well with your placement! Are you putting Tayah in childcare, or with family? The 4 weeks will fly by hopefully! I love your ticker picture. Is Tayah painting? I have been trying to work out what she is doing - i think I can see paint all over her legs. I had a little peek at your website too - not only is Tayah super cute - you are a gorgeous mummy!

Megan - hope little Lucas is doing ok and my heart goes out to you over the feeding! We have had a slight break through over the past few days.. I have been adding a little bit of cow's milk to his bottles and he has been drinking at least 150-200ml every feed.. I know it is probably considered a bad thing to do but I am only adding in 60ml of milk to 120ml-150ml of formula, and using formula on his breakfast instead of cow's milk. He was previously having about 200ml of cows milk on his weetbix so it works out the same amount roughly..and it seems to be working (fingers crossed I haven't jinxed it).

Jan - a few girls in my mum's group had the same problem with sleep school and having to wait 3 weeks for even a phone call. It is so annoying! I think most of them gave up before they got the call! Regarding the whole cooking thing - Tom isn't a fabulous eater either but I have found some of the home cooked dishes, he just loves and really tucks into, which makes me feel like an appreciated mummy!
For everyone that asked - the chicken balls went down a treat. with DH and his apprentices from work! Tom had a couple but he really just played with them - i think it was the different texture that he enjoyed messing around with but he did get some in his mouth! DH had some of the guys around after work and they tucked into them! They said they were yummy! I have some in the freezer so with try T with them again soon when his father isn't around!

V - I can't believe Avaleigh is walking. Clever girl! I love Sacha's idea of getting her to fetch things for you. Maybe one day you can even teach her how to make toast and coffee!! How have you been going with your job interviews?

Jas - well done on almost reaching your goal of becoming a qualified doula. So exciting for you! What will you do with Noah while you are attending the births?

I know I have missed people.. sorry! I haven't got any exciting news, how boring! Looking forward to the long weekend. We might be going to the races tomorrow - I think my dad has a horse running so I can't wait to show Tom all the horses. If not, will be stuck at home with DS watching the footy. He is a crazy embarassing Pies supporter. Today has been a gorgeous day here which I think might almost be the last of the lovely weather. Tom and I sat outside on the lawn before and i put down some bread for the birds - he went crazy. He was so desperate to catch one.
Has anyone started to think about Mother's Day yet? I am getting a bit excited about my first proper one. Last year I got a card, but I think DH is a bit panicked about making it special. He keeps asking me when it is and what are my favourite authors. Obviously I am getting some books . Jodi Picoult and Cathy Kelly, by the way!
Hope everyone has a great weekend. I better go out and take some washing off the line before my teething monster awakes!
