i have been very slack in posting in here, so sorry! been busy with the kids, trying to shift this extra weight. dont ya feel that once they are approaching 12months you cant keep using the baby weight excuse.. hmm its almost been a year now! LOL
been busy with my tupperware stuff also, but it is starting to slow down now so i may have a bit of extra time on my hands.
chels is going well, she still has 8 teeth. been walking for for a month and a bit. still breastfeeding but give her a forumla bottle before bed. i went out for the night for my birthday and she was great for DH, slept better than wheni am around.. maybei should go out more often :-)
she is turning into a real climber too, up on the couch, over the chest that i have blocking her off from getting out of the loungeroom! climbing up on the tv cabinet doors and just hanging off them! she is driving me nuts! hannah was never a climber so i am not used to it.
hannah is still testing the limits, and needing extra attention.
hope everyone else is going well too. and for those of you having a rocky patch, feel free to vent in here. sometimes it helps to chat about stuff.
Ange how many years did you get out of last RAK? A belated Happy Birthday.
How cute is Sas, blowing kissing.
Pred is doing it's job, keeping me fat lol oh well it's better than being stuck in hossy.
My Dr put me on some new meds & so far things are going really well, fingers crossed it does the job.
Hollo nice to hear from you again, so glad Chelsea is doing well. Hannah isn't the only toddler testing limits.
Nik your girls sound adorable, you've been so lucky not to have any jealously. My eldest was jealous a lot at first but now she just adores her sister. Mind you we still have the odd day of jealous behavior.
FF good job on the present buying, i have no idea what to get Kodi. I seriously i need some ideas.
FF - Yes books are Ts favorite too. She likes them better than toys and we read 20 or so to her each day. She loves Spot books the best of all. Hugs for your tuff time.
T is only just walking and standing without assistance now but still becoming balanced.
Hollo - glad you are back. Sounds like Chels is keeping you very busy!
Nik - Welcome. It is good to have another mum to chat with.
Mo - as K is the 2nd girl you probably have heaps of things already - I really love the all wood trolley I saw at the local boutique in Croydon. It is pink and has puzzles to play with on the sides. Not cheap though so not sure. T loves pushing things around just now.
Jane - stuff that single mum thing - it was TOO hard really (character building) and I am wrapped to have a lovely partner who is super involved with this baby. It is such a special thing to have the chance to experience things as they 'should be'.
Aww Bron, it must be so hard working and leaving her at home. I got a great wooden trolley at the Yarra Glen Market. It is made by and old man who has been making wooden toys for donkeys years. It is so sturdy. When i bought it he had one there that was 30 years old that he made for his kids and now his grandkids were using it! I havn't been since the market moved to Healsville, but i presume he goes there.
Mo- i think i got 2 years.... it expires next year. I 'think' i got a collective RAK from lots of people, as in lots of people contributed. I got a year purchased and a year for free. IYKWIM. That was the rumor i heard anyway. Your idea of fat isn't really fat Mo! Maybe fat for you, but you don't even rate on a fat scale.
Nik- i struggle somedays, but it's getting easier as they get older. I do wish they slept at the same time, but that rarely happens. I love watching them play and interact, they really love each other and their faces light up when they see each other in the morning, it is so cute. DD1 is a bit heavy handed sometimes but she means well.
Ange i'm gonna have to check out that market, I always hear about the bargains you get.
Your very kind, but i wanna lose the weight so bad. I'll get there by the end of the year
Bron it's hard buying for the 2nd girl, there is only so many toys, books & clothes a house can hold!
These new meds are giving me huge headaches, I'm so ever stupid side effects.
I'll stop complaining now
Nik - Money in a bank account sounds like a fantastic idea. We haven't opened one for Alexandra yet. We love blocks here too, my parents have kept a huge box of duplo from when we were kids and Alexandra loves the little people. She carries one in each hand with her everywhere!
Hollo - great to see you in here! Sounds like things are going well. I am on the weight loss thing at the moment as well. Have lost 7kg since January and have about 15kg to go. The most climbing that Alexandra does is on the lounge room coffee table. My sister was a climber and she was all over everything.
Mo - I hadn't thought about the fact that you already have heaps of toys and clothes, etc. That does make present buying difficult
SP - It does suck that we have to work instead of being able to spend all day with our bubbas. I'm probably going to be going back to work in the next 6 months and not sure if I'll be able to do part time so I'm enjoying the time spent at home while I can.
JM - Oooohhh, your big move is getting closer and closer. Are you excited/nervous?
I'm going to my sister's today to visit for a couple of days. It's a 3 hr drive and hopefully the roads won't be flooded with all the rain we've had or I'll have to turn around and come back. I'm looking forward to being able to go shopping in some real shops We only have iga/newsagent/post office/dress shop and gift shop here.
