Em - Liam's trying to drop his afternoon sleep, but is vile without it, so I'm still doing whatever I can to get him to have at least half an hour. These days this often means half an hour or so of him fighting me & crying, followed by napping in my arms. Not ideal, but the alternative is worse ie completely miserable, clingy, fussy difficult devil child. It's frustrating too, as he used to go to sleep in the pram really well, but these days he just stays awake, unless I walk for hours, which in the current cold rainy weather isn't my fav thing to do. Sadly missing a sleep doesn't ever mean that he'll go to bed earlier - that's still routinely about 7.30. Don't have anything on your bottle question, as he's still fully B/F, I'll probably just switch straight over to milk from a cup. Although this will depend on him actually learning how to use a cup, not currently high on his list of things to do.
Sacha - Autie is gorgeous!!!!!!!!!!! How is the walking going?
Em - Oliver has a sleep around 11 for about an hour and then about 10 minutes at around 4. He has never been a very good day sleeper. Thankfully he sleeps very well at night though! He is still breastfed but I have just started giving him a cup of rice milk in the middle of the day.
Jas - good luck with the moving and even better luck with getting your BFN next month!
Jess - hope little Ethan gets better real soon.
Hello to everyone else!
Well we had an early birthday dinner for Oliver tonight at L's grandparents house. It was nice and he got some great presents. I did really well at the shops the other day too! How great is it having the toy sales right on the kids birthdays!! Although, I think he might have ended up with a little too much!!
Sacha- We are looking at alturnitive ways with dealing with ADHD. I dont want to go near the medication till its the only thing left....We're going to see a nathpath and dietain and we have started her on Kids Smart omega 3 fish oil for learning, memory and behaviour so by the time we get to the Paed Appt in august we can say we have tried it and yes its making a difference or no its not.....
Bayleigh loves playing with anything that has wheels.. He has alot of hotwheel cars that he carries everywhere with him and he gets into his brothers tonka trucks and and duplo when he isnt at our house.....

Raels- I left plenty in the shop but the lady behind me in the layby line had 3 trollys and a friend of mine was working the layby reg and told me later that her layby came to over $2000 My jaw just dropped when my friend told me that LOL..

Em- Bayleigh was having 2 bottles a day 1 AM and 1PM and water or a sipper with milk...... BUT DP was home sick all last week and had Bayleigh 3 days ALONE while i spent time with DD and did things in town and now Bayleigh has 3-4 bottles and and isnt keen on his sippers as DP didnt offer them at all for the 3 days GRRRRRRRRRRRR
As for sleeps Most days he will only have one where he will sleep for 2 hours but while DD is on school hols he is having a afternoon sleep at the time when we are normally picking DD up from school and he will sleep for about 1 1/2 hours

Well i have had a bit of a ramble sorry its so long girls
and sorry if i missed you in personals
im goin to go and watch the end of GOOD NEWS WEEK
I am trying to upload a photo of Charlottes cupcake tree that I made for her party yesterday but am having lots of trouble - will keeo trying as I am rather proud of my effort LOL!!
Sorry MIA the last few weeks, I was awfully sick last week didn't have much energy for anything, luckily I had 3 days of help with Olivia so I could rest. And this week I was busy with the party plans for my birthday girl (birthday was today!!).
We had her party yesterday and it went off great! Apart from a very teething grizzly birthday girl who only wanted mummy, the party was great. All the kids had a great time and all went well (pics on facebook).
I will read most posts tonight, and post again tomorrow but I BIG HUGE happy birthday to all the gorgeous 1 year olds that have had their birthday since I have been MIA - I hope your days and Mummy's days were just wonderful!
OH yeah, Olivia is teething bad and she screamed when we tried to give her her bottle tonight, she was hysterical which is SO weird as she LOVES her food and bottle so I am not sure - could it be teeth? Do they go off bottle or drink when teething? It was like it was painful for her to have the teet in her mouth?
I finally managed to upload the cupcake photo. The photo doesnt do it justice (brag LOL). There were little sugar flowers and butterflys on the top of each cupcake.
Happy 1st Birthday Olivia
