Dotty your poor little darling! hope she feels better soon!
Hollo - wow! pulling herelf up already! Susie isnt even rolling much..she can roll tummy to back but hasnt done the other way yet. she loves standing on our legs...is quite strong too! and she loes sitting...wont be long and she'll figure out a way to get from her tummy to her bum I'm sure lol!
poor lil love here has been having issues with going...she went 12 days with just a tiny lil bit coming out friday and then one decent sized one yesterday..but it definitely wasnt 12 days worth!! so theres gotta be more! will try more brown sugar and water today and if that hanst helped will call the MCHN line again.
its not that great actually.. kind of a pain in the bum! got to be one step behind her at all times! chels is crawling properly too so the loungeroom is no longer her only area of exploration ARGH!
poor bub mrs C, hope you get the constipation sorted soon. you could try a bit of prune juice, or puree prunes in some solid food... or puree apple etc.
i have my first tupperware demonstration on the weekend NERVOUS! LOL
Am finally back online after a huge couple of weeks. We are at DP's family's place in Russia and it is freezing outside but really really warm inside because of the central heating, which is annoying (we are wearing summer clothes and sweating)
Alexandra is so smitten by her grandad and her cousin, she absolutely adores them in particular. We had fantastic flights on the way over and had a few people comment to us about how quiet Alexandra was, she was very well behaved
No time for personals, will have to pop back in later, have a huge inbox full of emails to get through
FF - wow it is cool that you can communicate whilst over in Russia. I had heard about the over heated houses. Glad to hear your bub was settled on the journey! Bet DPs folks are excited to have you there!
Hollo - damn those clever early movers eh! Good luck with your first demo. Hope you sell heaps!
Mo - yeah commando style here too. Moving a lot further all of a sudden though.
Kell - lots of dadadadada from our girl. I keep telling her if she wants my attention its "mum"! She is taking an interest in her Dad in particular lately.
Sometimes I swear she says her name but it seems unlikely. Her brothers want to know when they can have a decent chat with her but are really taken with her daily development anyway.
oh and Mrs C - it is not that common to be constipated if breast fed unless some problem with solids. What is she up to with the solids? Cereal, potato, and meat can bind them up a bit. Fruit is pretty safe. Breast milk is not known to be constipating (formula can be however).
Things are going well here, Maddi took one of Kodi's toys off her this morning.
Kodi kinda leaped at Maddi & starting pulling her hair & scratching her face, It was so cute.
Bout time Maddi got a taste of her own medicine!
Question time.
What are all the Mums buying the bubba for their 1st Christmas?
I was thinking of buying K a Vtech 1st walker.
I dont know what ill get Ella , i need some ideas. I have some little things put away.
Our house already looks like a toy shop
I was thinking a sandpit, but all she did was eat it at the beach, so maybe not yet
Maybe a slide, but id rather wait till her birthday
We are good here, Ella is into everything, she can pull herself up and is crawling properly most of the time when she dosent commando crawl
Also we have our FIRST tooth here this week, only just broken through on the bottom but i was super excited
Kodi has just cut her 1st tooth, she was really good so i wonder if the teething necklace really did help her.
Kell you could buy some cute shoes, books, those half shells for water or sand, toddler bikes or even one of those outdoor inflatable toddler pools with the sunshade.
Congrats to Ella cutting her 1st tooth!
Kellbell and Mo - Congrats on the first tooth!! We are still waiting
I went shopping with my Dad last week and got Miss T a Little Tikes Clock that talks and a lovely Pumpkin Patch summer dress and short cardy as well as a long sleeved Peek a Boo bib for food play times. DH bought her a poodle handbag through work. I think that will do her really. It is easy to spoil them with stuff and I always restrained myself when the boys were little. There are so many birthdays and Christmases to come and they get sick of plastic toys very quickly.
DH parents have bought a Little Tikes walker/ride on for her
What cool home made toys have you made?
I made a Barrocca tube into a rattle today with rice and tape and she loved it!
Bron that's why we buy the big items, because everyone else buys them so many toys & clothes.
For Maddi we are getting her a Kitchenette, Dora sofa(for both girls) & maybe a slide to go with the swing set she got for her birthday.
As for homemade toys, a cardboard box always goes down well lol
hi just finish scan it was awsome got to see everything and we found out we having a boy im excitied but hubby was bit up set he wanted a girl. But he'll come around i hope. Oh so exciting.
Yes cardboard boxes work well. I have photos of me as a toddler climbing in and out of them and making houses.
DH parents have bought T a push along ride on from Little Tikes. Our families tend to buy the big pressies and none of the sibs buy gifts at all.
hope the iron helps mo!!
things well gere. no crawling yet, still no rolling from back to tummy but can do tummy to back and spends heaps of time sitting playing with her toys! I reckon shes grown a few cm's in the last month too!
no idea wat we are going to do for chriostmas. Ive been wondering about a lil swimming pool with a shade to sit in with her lol
Kodi has a throat infection so she was put on AB's only for the the AB's to give her rash.
My baby can't get a break at the moment.
She has a rash on her tummy, back, face & head
I think the pools are a great idea, Kids love them so much & if u get a decent one that will last a few yrs it makes it even more worthwhile
