Hi girls! This is the first time I have had in ages to sit down and post properly. DH is away for the night for work (the house makes so many weird noises when you are home by yourself). I had intended to come on the internet and look up the Taste website to get a few new recipes, but instead have been catching up all the posts. There has been a few discussions going on about trolls (people who register and make up fake lives and stories). I must be so naive - I didnt even know that even exsisted! You girls all better be real - I would be devastated ! Now time for a few personals - I have only been doing a little bit of lurking lately.
Sacha - amazing amazing story! You are one brave girl and thanks so much for sharing! I nearly cried when I read your post about Autie saying Dada.
Jas - congratulations!! Noah is going to be a big brother! Hope you are feeling well.
Becc - it is fantastic to hear from you! Cannot believe it has been 8 months since you started back at work. And you are a bit of a superwoman for managing to fit in personals. Good on you for taking a bit of mummy time today too. Are you enjoying work? Xav sounds just beautiful - you must be one proud mummy! Gorgeous ticker pic of your little pirate!
Megan - for the other day! How lovely of your little man to give you an exciting present like walking! Glad the sleeping seems to be back on track. I think it is our turn to be having the frustrating week this week! Just can't keep track of these babies. Is it teeth, is it sickness, is it mummy thinking about things too much . Cute story about the phone too.
Jan - don't feel like a mean mummy - I had my mean mummy pants on today too. Fussy pants wouldn't eat his sandwich at lunch, so I gave it too him again at afternoon tea time. The look of outrage on T's face was priceless and he kept throwing it on the floor until he realised there was no other option, so he meekly ate it and drank his milk..but has refused to kiss me all day so I guess he thinks 'two can play that game mummy'! Are you going back to work full time? Will Liam go into childcare?
Sarah - hope everything goes well with the puppy. Bayleigh will love it! Don't envy you with all the moving - we did it at the start of the year - although you sound nice and organised. I am a bit of a procrastinator (sp?) when it comes to stuff like that! Great idea with the potty for Bayleigh. I might steal your idea. Boys seem like they will be hard to toilet train, so might be useful to get in early.
Raels - hope you are all feeling ok now. Poor little Oliver .
Well thats as far as I can go back! Everything is going pretty well here. Tom has been off/on grizzly over the past few days - I tend to switch my ears off a bit but it does make me a bit sad and can be a bit trying! I am pretty sure it is teeth - gave him a little bit of Panadol this afternoon and he was my lovely sunny happy boy again. Don't want to keep him drugged though so hopefully now the teeth have cut, he will be feeling better. We were woken this morning at 5.30am by hearing T though the monitor, lying in bed practising his words "Mum-mum, Dad-da, Nan, birda (bird), ta, ta-ta". Thankfully he went back to sleep but we were crying with laughter. Eating is going a little better here - except sandwich refusal - especially with dinner. Tom's problem seems to be that while he will eat almost anything, he won't touch things (he sounds like a bit of a freak lol). So at dinner time we have been giving him his own little fork and although we have to help him put things on it, and he uses it with the 'forks' pointing downwards, he is eating by himself and doing much better. Does everyone else eat at the same time as bubs? We don't.. DH and I generally don't eat until 7.30-8pm, and T eats at 5.30pm. Just wondering what others are doing in that regard.
Ok, better head off. Was planning an early night - in bed with Milo (a drink of milo, not secret lover named Milo ) to watch Dance, then maybe stay awake for Olympics.. Is anyone else excited about Olympics? I am not very sporty but am quite looking forward to it. More as an excuse to vege on the couch but still feel like I am doing something by supporting my country! Not sure I will stay awake for the opening ceremony and am working tomorrow - but am sure I will see soooooo many highlights of it over the coming days.
