And Yay Flynnie for sleeping through! Must have been the night for it... Niall slept from 9 - 5am then 5am - 8am!
I'll be back later... haven't been up long... all bedragled... had a chuckle at your checkout scenario Dee and your typo Julie (4 or 5 years) LOL I know it must seem that long... BBL
Happy Birthday to everyone...
Yeah for sleeping through.. Caitlyn slept last night too from 7-10.30 ( when she had a spew) and then to 5.30 am yeah..
Doona congrats on the BFP and to all those who are pregnant. I must admidt I am thinking about it but since I have put ona huge amount of weight (15-20kg) I am not sure what to do..
Happy Birthday Nathan, Marley and Oscar!!! Oscar will properly be one year old at about 4.50pm. He is already dressed in the cute outfit my mum got for him to wear today and he woke up gurgling with cheeriness. He, too, went down at about 7, woke at about 10.30 with a start but went back down again till about 8am. It really has been the night for it!
Ok, gotta fly - have brekky, take Oscar to Gepetto's before MIL comes for him...
Hiya Emishka! you don't sound happy darl *hugs* anything we can help out with? Gee Caitlyn looks like a real little girl in your ticker... they are all growing up waaaay too fast (but they look younger when they're sleeping hey? )
So bleak and windy outside... Wade is watching far too much TV. Better turn it off soon... get him doing some drawing I think, he loves that.
I think I might go read some preggy journals... Nic and Rory here I come!
Thanks for all the lovely birthday wishes, I can't believe Marley is the oldest of the 3! Had her health centre app today and she is still my little baby!!! She is only 8.3kg, 73cms long. Health nurse said that babies with allergies tend to be smaller and her height is fine, just her weight is in the 10th percentile. She said to follow up with paed at my next app in July, but she wasn't concerned. She suggested to increase her carbs and some more red meat. She had a terrible fever last night (39) but was much better this morning, still has a bit of a cough. I have been singing Happy Birthday to her all day, she thinks its pretty funny! Her cupcakes turned out yum and she had some at lunchtime, she wasn't overly keen but enjoyed making a mess. We are having an intimate family party tonight, just DH, me and Chelsea!!!! We get to sing happy birthday properly and eat more cupcakes (better go ice them!)
Julie - hope the fellow shoppers enjoyed your new haircut!!! My camera is now working so I will take a photo of the canvases and put them on my site. It was heaps of fun to do. Hope the next few days go quickly for you and your DH will be home soon.
7th - hope the girls enjoy putting on a party for Nathan. I think its more fun for the siblings LOL!! Chelsea is dying to get home this afternoon for cake!!!
Rory - another mystery of parenthood solved LOL!!! Well done on Flynn sleeping through, looks like that light might be staying on.
IK - I'm sure Oscar will look cool in his new clothes! Going to Gepettos over the weekend, where exactly is it? Want to get the same maracas and tamborine that Marley got for a friends baby - they are so cute!
Well Kailen got his stitches out yesterday, the doctor said it's looking good. Cody had his needles yesterday, he had a bit of a hard time this time, they put his MMR in his arm then one in each leg. They did his right arm and leg first and he cried and I turned him so that they could do his left leg and once he saw the needle coming he just bawled. I thought it was so funny that he was crying just at the sight of the needle, poor bub.
Donna congrats on the BFP.
Dee I'm sure you and the girls will put on a great party for Nathan this arvo, we will have to organise a meet upwhen you have some free time.
Mel glad the cakes turned out great, have/are you going to take any pics of them? Hope you all enjoy your special dinner tonight.
Bath it's been sooo windy up here as well, I've just kept the boys inside today so I know how you feel. I also can't imagine you looking bedraggled.
IK are you also having a special party/dinner tonight for Oscar? How are the assignments going?
Rory yay on Flynn sleeping through, it's so refreshing to have a full nights sleep, especially when your pg.
Julie what does your DH do again? You always feel better when you've had your hair done don't you, I've got to try and get mine done soon, it's been 6-7mths now. I got your email too thanks.
Hi Girls I've been busy with my 2 cuties and trying to organize this weekends 1st birthday bash for Indiana on her real birthday the 24th. I'll let you all how it goes next Monday.
Hopefully it should go smoothly.
Happy Birthday to all these growing bubs in June.
Indy is so close to standing all by herself and that much closer to walking too. God it is just all happening too quickly!! Might happen on her B-Day!!
Does anyone else feel old when they see their BABY walking??? They're just not a baby when they do that
Feeling so emotional this week with the celebrating and reality of the lost baby....plus listen to this doozy. Cameron was having a sleep over on Saturday night and my parents place and I have been growing his hair for some time now, tempted to chop but waiting out the ugly in between stage, then my dad delivered him back on sunday and mum had a go on hi fringe!!! ARRRRGGGGHHH I almost cried, literally, but pulled it together for him coz he was looking at me saying 'Mummy, Babi(thats what we call my mum) cut my hair' and I was like 'Yes she did. (But)You are (still)such a handsome boy' - the brackets are what I was thinking not saying to his cute little face.
Ok thats my emotional outburst. oooo that feels better
Ohhh mumzy :hugs:, sweety, and Did your mum know you were deliberately trying to grow it longer? Feeling older, huh, I am older, lol, wait til they start with puberty and all that good stuff begins, lol, hmmmm.
Amanda we will have to organise a meet up soon I'm free from next week. Yay,the second week of holidays would be great.
Bath Yay for Niall sleeping all night, good little man.
IK How is your study going?
Rory yay on Flynn sleeping all night. How are you travelling?
Emma yay for Caitlyn sleeping through as well. Go for it, have another bub and then loss the weight after the next one.

what a great Avater pic Dee! So Nathan is the youngest of the trio today.
Bath LOL literally at your comment! if only i looked more like jennifer annisten hehe. But that pic i think your talking about was at a wedding in nov last yr, i had my hair done (was extremly happy with it) and also had a fake spary tan. just goes to show why the celebs always look top notch they get to spend a fortune everytime they step out of the house.
well i had my OB appoint today, all is going well, will update on my pg journal. mumzy- i would have been pretty peeved at someone cutting my childs hair out of their own accord without asking first. but atleast it will grow back soon i suppose. Not the point though is it
Amanda- Nixon went through the same as Cody with the 12m needles had both legs and an arm jabbed and by the time the arm needle was coming he knew what was going on. He litteraly sobbed for a good 5 mins afterwards, then when he stopped one of the nurses pulled the tab off his arm which was coming off, that started him up again!
Bath - will take pics of canvases tomorrow, everytime I remember to take them, Marley is asleep!!
Amanda - poor Cody, those needles must look pretty scary to a little fella! Glad to hear Kailen got his stitches out ok, did it leave any scaring? Will take pics of the cake I do for Saturday (once I finally work out what I'm doing with them LOL!!), the ones today, I just iced and put sprinkles on (Chelsea helped).
Isabelle - how frustrating, I can totally understand why you are upset. I would be pretty angry if my Mum did that. Its one of those things that you would never get done without asking. Like Nic said, hopefully it will grow back soon. I remember my dad doing that with my youngest brother, he got him the worst crew cut ever and my mum went ballistic, he looked like a real rough head! Thankfully it grew back quickly and dad was never allowed to take him to the hairdresser ever again!
7th - what a beautiful ticker pic! You have such a lovely family. Nathan must love being doted on by his big sisters.
Nic - glad the ob app went well. How is Nixon doing with his ulcers?
We had a nice quiet, family celebration tonight. Marley enjoyed her cake and squashing it into a million pieces! Chelsea wanted to sing happy birthday 3 times and blow out the candle 3 times too, I swear she is more excited about this birthday than anyone. When I picked her up from kinder today, the teacher told me that Chelsea had made Marley a present. It was all Chelsea's idea and she wanted to make a book. She did all the drawings and one of her teachers put her words in. It is so cute, she has her and Marley on the front cover and inside is Shrek and Fiona, Mum and Dad, marley and her cake. The teacher said she went to so much trouble doing it and was very excited to show me. I was so proud of her, to think of her baby sister like that, it was very touching.
For the new ones here, I found my birth story and as some of us have already shared theres, I thought I would too. I enjoyed reading it again. How Marley Grace entered the world
Mel- i just read your birth story again, thats right both your girls were born on their EDD clever cookies! loved your birth story and how you opened your eyes to see your beautiful daughter, i hope i can have such a lovely birth story as yours to share in a few months time!
sounds like Marley enjoyed her cake. what was it made of? sorry if u already posted that bit, but knowing she is allergic to dairy etc.
i have a horrid case of preggie brain atm. done some stupid things the last few days.
i rang the girl i did a tup party for on Sunday to tell her i forgot to write donw her cc details but she informed me she gave me cash derrrr
then i rang the docs yesterday, went to ring back less than a min after hanging up to change the time and i rang MIL instead! i said to her can i change the appoint, she said no cause its your MIL......
Nic - PML about your weird phone calls!!! Preggo brain is a horrid condition LOL!!!
I am sure you will have a wonderful birth story to share, one which we will all be waiting to read.
The cake was made with no eggs or dairy, it has flour, sugar, vanilla, lemon juice, cocoa powder, oil and water. They were really nice too, so moist. I was a bit suss if they were going to turn out but thankfully they did. The icing is dairy free spread, soy milk and icing sugar.
Have just been watching the news and the storms look bad again in Sydney? How is the weather your way?
Oh Nic, so funny you poor thing.
Sounds like a lovely evening there Mel and how cute of Chelsea to make a present for Marley, very thoughtful for such a young possum.
OK check in later, better go do some work, I've just about got this thing done and it sounds alright, yohooo maybe I'll get it in the post early???
Edi Thanks for your lovely comments on my piccy girls, I have uploaded more piccy's onto photo bucket, a whole new album Nathan 1st Birthday'
Girls have a disco tonight, so they are busily preening themselves, lol. They are very excited.

Hey everyone!
Thanks for your birthday wishes for Ruby! I'm also still breastfeeding her, so very happy about that!
We are all having an awesome holiday in Qld and very happy to leave the foul Sydney weather behind (hope our dog is ok!) WE are loving being able to focus just on our girls and spend lots of time with them.
We completely forgot it was Ruby's birthday (POOR #2 baby) but Christy (who we are visiting) made Ruby a cake (in a star of course!) and we celebrated out the front of DreamWorld before we all went in for the day!
Christy's bubby Jovie is I think 7 months, and she and Ruby are pretty much the same size! She is still very little, but damn cute! Am in Brisbane for another week with Christy, till we go home so will catch up with you all then!
Nic - sounds like you are having such a hard time with somethings. Hang in there.
Good luck 7th and Ik with your exams I have no idea how you can have any brain space for that (see above. re. forgetting my daughters birthday... but we are on holiday...)
Can you believe our bubbies are turning one??? It has just FLOWN by hasn't it! Remember when racoon and Nic and bellasmum were having their babies early and we thought we'd NEVER get to the end of our pregnancies?
Gosh things are so quiet in here, where is everyone??????
7th - the photos are gorgeous! I can't believe how much of a big boy Nathan looks. He has so many teeth, I think thats what makes him look older. The family photo is so cute, your kids are all beautiful. Hope the girls enjoyed their disco!
Nickel - thats fantastic you are still breastfeeding. PML about forgetting Ruby's b'day!!! Goes to show how relaxed your are on holidays. I am envious of you enjoying the warm weather, Melb weather has been icy lately.
Marley is still being a cranky bum, not sure if she is still not well (temp etc is fine) or just cranky!!! Been doing some shopping at the sales the past 2 days, snapping up some bargains! Went to Chadstone today and got Marley's b'day outfit (actually bought her 2!) and some things for Chelsea. Lots of good bargains. My GF in Japan sent Marley's present and it arrived today, it was a gorgeous Oobi Baby hat (with pom poms on the top!) and a lavender scented lamb that she can sleep with. They are both so cute. Just waiting for her to wake up so I can try it on!
My younger brother got tickets to the tv show "Thank God You're Here", so we are going to the taping tonight at 7pm. I have seen the show a few times and its very funny, so I am looking forward to it. I'm even more stoked that he asked his big sis instead of one of his mates.
