I'm starting to feel better, but now Matt is sick!
Oh Danni. That sux.
No prep in NSW.Schools do do an introduction program though. It depends on the school how it works. Its usually a half or full day a week for the last term, but the public school here has already started. Catholic school (Jaz's) starts next term. At the school Jaz was at last yer they just did 4 days in about week 8 of last term. 3 days til 12 I think, then 1 full day. But there were only 12 kids at the school, so it wasn't really a set in stone thing. Jaz was the only one in kindy.
Prama - I'm pretty sure he'd be ok with curry. Did you eat it while pg & bfing?? He's getting the taste that way anyway. As long as its not burn your bum off hot it should be ok. Day care centres usually have a pre school room too, for 3 - 5 year olds. They can go anywhere from 1 to 5 days depending on the centre/pre school.
LOL - all this school stuff is confusing me!! Thanks for all your feedback
yup, I had lots of curry, and still do. I especially had really really hot Indonesian chilli stuff more often when I had MS, like 2-3 times a week. This was burning your bum off hot, but I love it. This indonesian place, they blend bird's eye chilli with kaffir lime leaves, garlic, and something else. It's not cooked and you pour it over your chicken or fish like a sauce.
It's sadistic sambal... lol. The more I cry, the more I love it! Steve reckons all the chilli I've had, has burnt my taste buds and I can no longer taste subtle flavours.. sometimes i think it's true.
I was feeding Poopy pumpkin and lentils, and as usual he moved and it went up both nostrils. As he was breathing in and out, it was like yellowy snot moving in and out.. lol it was gross but I was laughing my head off, and he started to laugh too. Sorry if it's TMI.
Anyway, if this is all he snorts, I'm happy enough!
skye - steve said he went to Coonamble years ago working on a project on microwave transmission sites, not sure if he stopped there or went thru. He has it's a nice part of the bush!
Lol! Sorry Prama, but he's mad!!!!!
JK. I think its a hole, but it is bush, I can tell you that now!
We are actually classed as isolated here. The kids get an extra week christmas holidays & people get a huge discount to send their kids away to boarding school. They pay $2000 - $3000 for the year, so alot of them do that, coz its way cheaper than having them at home.
The town must get very quiet then without many kids.. But it must be really exciting around x'mas when they come back.
Are you still thinking of moving away?
I want to. It's not too bad now that I know the people next door & we have someone to talk to & have a few drinks with that are so close. It makes life easier, but its not the best town for bringing kids up.
so glad things are getting better.. hope they'll start to fall into place.
time for beddy byes.. zzzz
was so hot today, 32deg!!
Pram skye is right some day cares have a preschool room with 4-5 year olds. I know at our centre we are constantly fully booked becasue the program is so great. The girls do ofeten suggest though that if your child has been in full itme care at the centre for alogn period that a day at another preschool helps them more at school. They can get over famialiar with the environment and staff. We have 3 private schools in town that offer hwat they call pre prep or transision and the hcildren attend form 9 till 2.30 either 5 days a week or 3. This is supposed to be a more formal structured pre school type program to get them used to the larger school environment. I can tell you know though that any good pre school program in a day care will be it hands down and the curriculum is o much richer. We have had a few moans and growns abotu how bored our kids are when they goes to transition or kindy for the first 6 months becasue they already know how to write and read and do their phonics etc.
I would also be lookign at feeder schools fomr your day care or preschool so that lakshman has some friends to follow thorugh with him. MInd you he is still a baby I cant bear to even think about sending Will off to school *L* but i know its a relaity especially in city areas to enroll early etc.
Very excited last night as Will got up on his kness and started rocking and moved forward a little. God help me he will be full on crawling in a week I reckon.I went to put a lighter w eight sleep suit on him last night as it was really warm up here too and poor little buggars feet are pushign out the end he has had a real growth spurt.\got to go he is awake bbl
B xx
Oh my god bron, you are going to have the first crawler!!! I must say that i am not intirely jealous as i am not ready!!!
Prama - mj has done the snorting thing with avocado, it was hilarious, green snot DSS killed himself laughing
Skye, just googled coonamble to find out where you are... didnt show how isolated you really are but at least i have a general idea!
Glad that you have met the peopel next door, it makes it easier.
MJ was awake at 3am this morning, talking and giggling to herself and blowing raspberries! i didnt go in as she didnt cry at all, it was funny to listen to ... my boobs are killing though, not sure what it was that i ate last night to increase my supply but they are soooooo full, i am considering going in and waking her!
Danni - i hope everyone in th house is feeling better
Have noticed that MJ is really 'eating' now, for the first few weeks it was more about getting the food into her mouth and playing iwth it.
Last night she had a slice of avocado then a stick of cheese that i cut from the block, then another slice of avocado and then a segment of orange. the only thing that she didnt eat intirely was the orange... previously i would find it all over her and down beside her and in her crutch, not its all gone (the dog isnt happy as she use to get the left overs!!!)
Oh and last night MJ was in the tummytub having a bath and she looked like she was straining for a poo, but only did a fart, lifted her out, but realising there was no poo, popd her back in so i could wash her hair... meanwhile i reaslied that i didnt have her towel, so asked my sister to watch her which she did, but failed to see that she did a poo and when i came back in her has a massive solid poo floating near her head GROSS!!! of course that was the end of bath time and i had to re-clean her! Im sure it wont be the last time :rofl: i rememebr nina had a bath with dad when she was little and they were playing with boats and things and all of a sdden this log came floating but, It took dad a while to realise what it was, i think initially he just thought it was a toy and he was out of the bath in a flash! :D
We are in for a storm here today, the wind is howling and blowing
sj - lol on the poo story!!! if it happens again, take a piccy!! LOL
steve had to go to MIL's to do our washing as our washing machine's having PMS. Managed to get him to take Poopy with him.
This is the second time in 7mths I'm at home all by myself!!! I just needed this. last time was for an hr, but i think today I'll get 2hrs all by myself.
steve was asking me to go out and he will look after Poopy, but I just wanted to relax at home. he feels it;s easier for him to look after him at home instead of going out with him.
He said it was inconvenient, I told him well, welcome to my life. Even if I need to go to the shops for 5 mins, I have to pack him up etc. Small argument there.
It's sssoooo nice just to sit at home and do stuff and not worry.
I just vacummed, I'm going to have lunch in peace, and listen to some 80's music on vH1.
I cant believe this is heaven to me!!
I forgot to say, Poopy's 7mths today!!!!
Well, Jazz threw up at about midnight last night so I had to get her into the bath. Matt was also throwing up at about the same time. Thankfully after that everyone managed to get to sleep. Jazz did throw up again today at church. I hope she'll be ok for the rest of the day. We have a farewell dinner for my sister and her family tonight. Matt said even if he feels like crap he wants to go just means I'll probably have to drive and I don't think any of us will be eating very much.
I'm not doing well tonight having a bad afternoon.
Hope Jaz is ok sux when they are sick.
Prama bloody washing machines makes life hard when they don't work esp with bubbas.
SJ I laughed so hard reading about poo story wait until she can take her own nappy off and paints the cot with it haha that has happened to me a few times.
Summer 100% crawled today OMG she is a busy girl, she can get to any room in the house now incl bathroom what ever you do DON'T wish them to crawl yet I have to put up barriers to keep her away from the DVD and tv and today she found her way to the kitchen.
here comes another week gosh they are flying by so fast....
:hug: Trina hope its better tommorow
YAY Summer I know you said the other day she was doing the rocking thing she so wants to keep up with the others doesnt she *L* I certainly am not wishing Will to crawl too fast but the little buggar is determined.God help us all
Question for all on solids..tuna? is it ok and when? could I Mix it with some rice i knwo they shouldnt have too mnay serves becasue of mercury etc
i thot tuna was ok.
isnt rice ok? i was raised on it! lol...
eekkk.. summer, you go girl!
im hoping when poopy starts to crawl, steve stops leaving his crap everywhere
I can't believe Summer is crawling!! They are growing up so fast!
I remember when Bri started crawling at that age. She was on her hands & feet at first though. It was funny watching her bum up in the air.
It was the climbing that got me with her though. She was getting up on the coffee table within days of starting crawling. I'm glad Jesse's taking it easy.
Hope you feel better soon Trina.
Don't you love the bath floaties! My sister used to do that all the time & mum often had all 3 of us in there together! My brother & I used to jump real quick!!
Hope you guys are better soon & the bugs stay away from you guys for a while Danni. They seem to like you guys.
Look after yourself.
Prama - Hope you enjoyed being lonely!
SJ - Have you got Google Earth? We arent too bad here. There's worse, but we are 2 hours from the closest shopping centre. Could be worse I guess!
Hope every one else is well. Or feeling better soon!
Trina - Just wanting to send you a really BIG :hug: :hug: I know it doesnt take anything away, but im here for you if you need a vent at any time. You are amazing and doing a fantastic job raising your 4 beautiful girls :)
Summer you little terror!!! crawling, OMG these babies are getting mobile quick!
Prama - i did take a photo :redface: just was embarressed to say! I hear you on the crap being left around the place
Danni - hope you are all feeling better
Shell - all good with you?
Bron- i think tuna is OK... dare i ask??? any word?
Going to IKEA today with mum, hoping to get some early christmas pressies and stocking stuffers (i am determined to be organised this year - im not working and everyone with think that i have loads of time on my hands... yeah right)
Ah yes she is very determined, she has been commando crawling for over a month so now on hands and knees she is actually slower but if she wants something quick she goes back on her tummy and moves super quick.
I have given summer tuna, mixed with potatoe and brocolli she loved it.
Thanks for the nice thoughts girls.
Such a warm day today, off to the gym to do PT and hopefully punch the crap out of something. I have a massage booked this afternoon so really looking forward to that, its kinda like a counselling session too cos we talk the whole time and she does reiki at same time. Then riding horse after school.
Enjoy the day ladies xoxo
