Mel – Trip to dietician went really well. She got me to say what we fed him each day and it was spot on – she was very happy (so pfffftttt to in laws and their oh-so-helpful comments). As he is so happy with the soy milk she wasn’t concerned about him at all. In fact I jokingly said I should be talking about Oscar as he eats so little and she started asking me about him and was fine chatting about him also. She said we’re doing the right thing with him also – he won’t starve himself so just carry on as is. It was great to have that reassurance from her that we are doing things right as when the IL were here they questioned so much about their diets we started doubting ourselves. GOOD LUCK WITH WORK TOMORROW. Hope it goes well – I’m sure it will. I understand why you were feeling a bit funny about it being the last day – just the 2 of you last Thursday (long time since I’ve posted!). Your dad’s party sounded great (and yummo to the cake) and as for the lie-in and paper reading in bed yesterday – very very envious!
Heaven – lol at your kids thinking Arnie was in another film and it was him doing his political garb. Yay on pay day! It sounds like a good idea to cut back on your uni load now your DH is away for such long periods. Did you manage to fix your dryer? We’ve got Wiggles tickets for December too – just me and Oscar going though, DH will stay home with Will this time as I don’t think he’d be bothered yet.
Bath – Your hubby sounds great to have done 150% of his budget – he’s definitely earned his juicy bonus! Enjoy spending! My best friend in the UK who is moving out to Saudi (but now not before I go over so I will get to see her and her boys – yay!) has been to Dubai about 5 times for holidays as she loves it there. I have another friend in Townsville who is moving there in a few weeks so it sounds like it’s the place to be!
Kat – Hi and welcome to Junies, Annika and Will were born on the same day – what time was she born? Will was 3.03pm. We are also Perth SOR (Carlisle so technically EOR but never heard anyone say that!) and I agree – it’s a great place to be.
IK – Hope Oscar is feeling better. Ebay printer man situ sounds abit iffy – sounds like he caught you on the hop though – good luck with that one! Have a great time with your sister.
Nic – Will mostly has 2 sleeps a day but if he has his morning sleep he can sometimes be in his cot for an hour after lunch before he’s asleep – just bouncing and banging. He probably is inbetween wanting 1 and 2 but is pretty unbearable if only has 1 so will be forcing 2 on him for the short term. Nixon giving kisses sounds so cute.
Rory – lol at Flynn making an ugly girl in the borrowed lilac fleece!
Mandy – Hi – welcome to Junies and BB!
Isabella – Congrats again! Glad Indiana had a great birthday – that’s was a great idea to get people to bring things for a time capsule for her.
Hi to Tali, Amanda and anyone else I’ve missed.
Your Melbourne meet up sounded great and love the pickies. I managed to meet up with Ali last Friday (along with some other Perthie BB’ers) at Tori’s and Lucas’ (Tanby’s) morning tea which was lovely if not abit hectic. 10 Kids in small room = scary – poor Tanya’s carpet had so much cake trodden in by the time we left! Tori is such a sweety – Will was crying as he only had 20 minute sleep and she kept offering him her cake to try and cheer him up. I went to see Mum2bee in hossy on Friday and got to meet the lovely Aiden James – she will have to change her name now!
Hehehe at all the marrieds/unmarrieds, I hadn’t thought it mattered anymore, I think roughly half of my friends are and the other half aren’t so really hadn’t thought about it. Awww, I don’t fit into any of the groups – not a renegade or a child bride! Married at 28! Very dull and boring (but happy!).
It’s great having dh home. We had a nice weekend, swimming on Saturday morning followed by coffee and cake, then shopping (not so great!) in the arvo. Didn’t leave the house on Sunday as we were having some wild weather and I was taking advantage of DH being around so I could clean and tidy as the place was starting to be a real dump and I was losing paperwork etc.
Still haven’t got Will in for his vax yet – him and Oscar were extra snotty yesterday and today but maybe next week might be good – don’t want to leave it too late. Anyway, better go off to bed.
Have a good day tomorrow and hope your first day back at work goes well Mel.
