    Hi everyone,

    Happy Birthday V!! Just a really quick one for me...I've become practically useless at posting properly in here!

    Noah went into a big bed last monday and he is doing soooooooooo well...just sleeps as usual and knocks on the door to come out when he wakes up! I have 10weeks4days until I am due!! Can't believe how quick it has gone and I know it will seem like the blink of an eye until this baby is born!!

    Hello everyone! Jas and Lis - it's so nice to hear from you both! Big belly rubs to you Jas. How cute that Noah knocks on his door! Tom would be doing it at 3am if I put him into a big boy bed .

    Hi Jess! HOpe you and your gorgeous boys are well. It was lovely to hear from you too. I absloutely hate losing posts.. must be even more frustrating for you! How is Ethan settling into the role of big brother?

    Good luck with the househunting Lis. Fingers crossed the perfect one is just around the corner.

    Jan - how's the job news? Hope you had a lovely day with your friend. What a nice friendship. How's the wedding action?

    Well, as usual not too much to report here. Tom is talking so much more every day and extremly cheeky. We spend most of out time with our faces hidden in pillows trying not to laugh at him, because he can be naughty and loves an audience. Still haven't had needles or MHN checkup - I finally got off my lazy bum and booked in for next wk.
    My day today will be spent on the phone with our insurance camera. Tom dropped DH's camera into the dog's water bowl.. $800 dead. Not sure if I can claim anything for it but going to try! Grrrr.. It was sort of my fault. We were with friends and the camera was on the table - then splash. Apparently (according to DH) I should of been watching, but boy he's fast! I just related back to the night he threw my hair straightener (unplugged) into the bath on whicle DH was meant to be watching

    Hi, I got a job, I got a job, I got a job!!!!! And it's a good one too, not just cos it's so much closer to home, right opposite Doncaster Shoppingtown, and I have a desk with a view, but because it's a real career type job, which I never thought I'd be able to find when I was just working part time. The only potential downside is that I will have to travel to Sydney occasionally, which is nothing against Sydney, cos I lived there for 7 years and really like the place, but more because of the organising to get Liam dropped off & picked up from daycare. But we'll work that out I'm sure. I shared a bottle of champagne with my sis & neighbour, and felt so smashed after 1 and a bit glasses that I had to stop. Which was a real shame, cos I was really enjoying it. Probably hit me because I didn't eat lunch, so was pretty starving by the time I got home.

    Anyway, other than that it's been a quiet day. Liam climbed/fell out of his cot cos his stupid mother was putting him in to sleep (ha, as if), didn't put the side out, then stepped away to get his teddy from his daycare bag, and bump, turned around & there he was on the floor. Unhurt, so a lucky escape. He's been really clingy all day, even before his little adventure, and BFing every single chance he can get, so I'm a bit over it atm. He's going through a phase of falling asleep on me, then screaming for ages when I put him into his bed. It's very tiring, and we hope that he gets over it really soon. Like tomorrow, would be good.

    Em - oh no for the camera, although I like your comeback for your DH, it's always handy to have those up a sleeve

    Jas, lovely to hear from you, glad it's all going well. Can't believe you're in your 3rd Tri - the weeks just go so quickly, although with all this hot weather you're maybe thinking not quick enough.

    Hi to everyone else

    Oh Jan, I have had a fear of Autie falling out of her cot since she could stand! She's so short, I'm sure she'd land on her head! Don't feel bad, I do stoopid mummy things all the time. I accidently gave Autie a slight chinese burn today while helping her to stand up... I got the most ****ed off look.
    Congratulations on your job! How great that it's one you're super happy with too! What will you be doing exactly? on the barnacle baby - could he be teething? If in doubt, dose 'em up, that's my motto LOL

    Em, I've been slack too, with the shots, but we are booked in for tomorrow. Sorry to hear of the sad demise of your camera - reminds me of that ad with the big slobbery dog that gets the camera. Know the one? It's gross. Is it covered on your house insurance?

    Jas, wow, that time has gone super fast! You must be getting very excited. That's great that Noah has adjusted to his big bed so well, one less thing to worry about.

    Jess, nice to know you're still here. How is everything going with your 3 boys?

    Lis, good luck with your house hunting. Glad to hear Olivia is still giving you so much joy. Saw some lovely photos on FB btw.

    Nicky, sending you lots of 'feel better' vibes. It's alright if you want to complain a bit. I'm pretty sure I would be!

    Sarah, hope the snake has moved far, far away. I would have to make Dan search until he found it if there was one here. If I know there's a spider somewhere and it's run away, I have a compulsion to search til I find it and get it outside (or in the bin more often these days) How is Bayleigh's face?

    Mel, good to hear you had a nice time away. I understand how much you must have missed the kids but at least you gave it a go. Won't be long until all our little toddies are teenagers and refuse to go on family holidays.

    Hi Raels and Megan What's going on with you guys?

    I don't really have any interesting news from us. We are thinking of moving to a bigger house in about a year so now I've lost all enthusiasm for the plans we have for this house. I'm ready to move now so I can have fun doing up a room for Autie and maybe one for #2. And dreaming of how much joy I'll get from organising storage space properly! (I know, I'm pathetic )
    Ok, I'm off to search for a sweetie treatie.

    Damn lost my post!!

    Mel - thanks for the anniversary message and I hope you had a great one also! We just went out to tea with some friends and their girls.

    Jas - I can't believe you have 10 weeks left, it feels like its going so fast!! That is great Noah is in a bed also, is it a big bed?

    Jan - congrats on the job!! What are you doing?

    Em - good luck with the needles! Olivia had a little reaction to it a few days after - high temp and got a spotty rash all over her! She is ok now, but it was scary!

    Ok need to have a cry....well I did just before!! I feel like a failure lately, Olivia just won't eat anythign I give her for dinner besides pasta!! TOnight we had a stew and I picked her up to put her in her chair, she looked over to the bench saw what it was and just screamed and screamed!! She just won't have anything and I am at boiling point. I just don't know what to do anymore?? She eats all good stuff during the day, I don't fill her up but come dinner and NUP! I don't know what else I can do DH got home just in the middle of my cry....I had put Olivia on the floor crying, she kept coming up to me trying to get on my knee and I was telling her no....I felt so mean. I just feel guilty cause she is not having a good nutrious meal.
