Hi All
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.

ETA – just posted and 3 more posts since I started writing – we are a chatty lot!
Yay Bath on Niall putting himself to sleep
-
IK: Someone knew... who was it?! (Rabbit phrase)
ETA: OMG Julie... we posted at the same time... here's me reading.... LOL mamoth effort I must say!
-
I know - i lurk most days but don't get around to posting so when i do it's huuuuge!
Not heard the skin a rbbit thing - but looking forward to seeing Oscar in his rabbit outfit - sounds so gorgeous.

Julie: BB meetup sounded a bit like ours; cake everywhere :) It's good to hear your DH is home safe... and I had to LOL at "losing paperwork" geeze there's a sliding mountain of it beside me here that Niall tries to pull off the table, i give up, it's like sweeping the sands of the Sahara! never ends. Speaking of which more and more people seem to be moving to Dubai ever since DH and I started thinking about it recently too: last week at Kinder I casually mentioned it to another bank wife and all of a sudden about 3 other women joined in saying that they either knew someone or were considering a move there as well! weird!
hey if I don't go to bed now DH will have no sympathy for me if Niall has an unsettled night... catch you all tomorrow! :)
ETA: Julie... c'mon 3 more posts and you hit the big 300 ;) hehe

I think it was CC who knew the rabbit thing! Where is you, CC? I've lost where I saved my Junies birthday list (somewhere on my computer!) - is Ally one yet? How has it been with the weather out your way, girly?
Julie - bad IL's! I resent when people question my instinct...as if I can't trust what I knew before I even knew i knew. That's what motherhood is for most people - something they knew before they were even conscious of it, it's in our genetic make-up! Glad the medicos could back you up:)
Bath - I keep forgetting to mention it, I must be in denial about it cos I don't want you to go - however, the kids' education thing is a real plus! Downside is that you would have to get used to life in a compound...so just stay here!

Omgod Ik is her name bec because I was in the same yr and home room as her and she got preggers in yr 11 and I remember going to yr 11 camp to queensland with her and she had no idea until we got back and we weren't good little girls on camp but you seem to know the twisty rep.how funny if it is her.:cryinglaugh:
Well I just found Kai eatting cat cookies so now she smells like a cat gross why do babies have to be this discusting as then she tried to give me big wet touge kiss's

Funny IK And Tali - what a small world it is. Yukky for the cat biscuits!
Bath - hope Niall was kind to you last night after your late night!
Had walking group this morning and managed to not get rained on. Was nice to get out as we'd been inside since Saturday Arvo so we beet the cabin fever.
Will has been having better nights (since DH got home - i don't think he believes i had a shocker of a week last week!) which is a relief! although still having to give him demazin to dry up the snot otherwise he coughs so badly all night. Think i will make a docs appt for next week for his vax but if his cold/snot hasnt gone i will just see what docs say as it is now 5 weeks since he came down with his original cold and has been mr snot ever since.
Mel - hope your first day at work is going well.

Good afternoon girls :) I'm hanging around waiting for the big announcement that Kelly has said will be made soonish...
And isn't it great that all members have access to personal messages (at least for a trial month)... means we don't have to use email.
Julie: Niall has been Mr Snot too for weeks... my doctor was happy to give him his vax despite it... he didn't react any more than usual. Oh and he slept very well last night... but Wade woke me up 3 times :( I swear it's always one or the other!
Ok... promised Wade a game on the 'pute...
Thinking of you Mel... looking forward to hearing about your day :)
-
Still here for the BIG announcement - Will is awake and i'm trying to entertain him in the office without him trashing everything/playing with the plugs!! etc I'm not normally on here when the sprogs are awake as it's just too difficult but i figure one naughty day won't hurt!
And great news re the memberships - have signed up already (so proud - i really must get out more!!!)
ooooo something smells - better go change that nappy! bbl
-
Congratulations Julie!!! Maybe I should offer to do your avatar for you.... Kat (astrolady) might be a bit busy now with her new job! I did Rory's, Nickers and my own... if you want to PM your details I'd love to have a go :)
-
Just pm'ed you! will have to go now as both awake and need to pick DH up from work - will bbl when all bubs in bed

Okey doke... I gotta shower the kids etc...might get back on here later tonight :)
-
Still no announcement? I've been popping in all arvo whilst I had visitors over!
My sister came over, as well as a long-standing family friend and we had a great catch up. We'll catch up again tomorrow, too.
My niece is SOOOOOOOOOO much cuter than she was a few months ago, she's really growing into herself and is a lot more engaging. I wish she didn't live in bloody NZ! But then, I'd have less reason to pop over to such a beautiful country, would I?
Congrats, Julie on your membership! It's great to have the option back!! Unfortunately, I need to work on DP a little more to get the OK. I've been wanting to subscribe to a great magazine, Kindred, for some time now and for the moment, I'm working on that. Considering I'm a month behind in my agistment (and have been for about 5 months!), I've got to be a bit careful when I'm buying non-groceries or Oscar-related things!
My sister also made Oscar some awesome nappy covers and AIO's. A smidgeon big right now, but he will grow into them and stay in them till he's out of nappies - she's so talented with her sewing machine, I should get cracking on my own projects.
Mel - how was work? Was it a great welcome back? Was it nice not to have to change your top a few times a day from food stains? Moreover, would it be really naughty to ask for my results prior to the 13 July?? ;)
Rory - I meant to say, Flynn is really the man on the town with all this 'sleeping around'!
Just heard a bang...can't be good...

Well the kids are in bed and my time is mine again :dance: now comes the time like every night I sit in the silents and get board then I eat all things bad for me the things I tell the kid they cant have all day as its not good for them, but DH comes home tommorrow so then at least I can speck to a adult again.
the kids love the walk today and it took about a hour with no fighting which was wonderful until that is Kai became over tied and cryed for 10mins before she fell asleep.
Kai has had three dirty naps today with a slight cat smell about them so now the door has to be shut at all times unless she is in bed coulda been worse coulda been the litter tray :p
well better go as I have to call DH now

Tali - ooh, cat smell...that's gotta be weird! How funny about you knowing Bec and being in her year when she first fell pg! She's quite proud of starting the 'Mater Christi Girls' reputation ;) At least she had a supportive family. That school is almost in its own postcode now! We go up there a couple of times a year to go through the fire plan, it changes so often. I think we'll definitely have to have a meet up with you when you are down here - you can take a girl out of Melbourne...
Oscar has taken some big tumbles today - he is sporting a few eggs on his head...
Amanda - how's it all going up your way?

Hi guys,
Hope you've all had a good day. I just had a week off work and went back today :( Not to worry, love the ppl i work with and it was only a 3hr shift so i shouldn't complain!
IK & Bath: The gal that refered me is *Rae*, she has 2 little girls, Ella and Tia. Yeah she has been on BB for a while now and loves it. Do you know her?
Is there a section on BB that you can find others that live in your area??
Glad to hear your are a bit 'odd' at times ~ love the Kooky kind!! :D
-
Mandy - there are local member discussions further down the forums page :)
I've seen Rae's posts :)
Better put a sleeping boy down and clean up a bit...washing to be done...
