Prama, sleep was better, then got worse the last 2 nights, think it was the cauliflower though as she has been farting heaps, and she had it 2 days running. Last night was a shocker, i am really really tired.
No teeth here still, MJ is cruising too.. she doesnt really like crawling anymore, she wants to stand up all the time and try and move.... she is so cute, cos she is a little worried about getting back down and falling, so she stands for ages!
Shell hope you had a great weekend away and enjoyed the sleep in
Danni, great santa pic, we are going to do one soon, will do one with just MJ then we will also have one with MJ and DSS (and as much as he rolls his eyes, he loves it really)
Trina, my gosh you kids are sooooooooo cute... you will have to lock them up when they hit puberty!
hummmm, cant think of all the things i wanted to write, my head is in a fog and i am really not looking forward to this afternoon as we have a meeting with DSS Mum and his counsellor... its not bad, just hate having to do these things, feel like i am under scrutiny
sj - i know, just when you think they are going get better they go back to square one. so frustrating. we had 2am, grizzle grizzle till 3, then 5am feed, and 7am wake up. i was so tired, i put him in bed w me till 8.
poopy's cruising and carefully lets go so he sits on his bum..
yesterday, we saw him w one hand on the sofa and he actually took a step, not facing the sofa but the other way, the sofa on his side. eeekkk..
Jazz is getting much more coordinated at crawling backwards. Matt & i were helping her to crawl forwards and she thought that was great. Then she tried to do the exact thing we were making her do but she was going backwards.
She went over to our cat yesterday and was laying on the floor next to him. He was enjoying it and she was stroking him. Then she grabbed him by the scruff of the neck and yanked him towards her. He looked at us like "help me" so while we were laughing I unlatched Jazz and put her back on her couch and the cat got up and went somewhere else. We are so lucky that he's a contented cat and not the sort that would lash out and scratch. (Unless he's in a playful mood in which case he would not be inside laying down, he's always outside when he's playful)
Danni, Cats are strange things aren't they? Our cat really doesnt like being patted at all and we were worried about her and MJ... MJ loves her and crawls over to where she is always, (it was actually the cat that made her crawl forwards) the cat wil tolerate MJ pulling at her and sit there purring, if it was one of us, she would have lashed out.... i dont trust her that much so do leave them alone together as she is quite unpredicatable (not like your cats that love attention) but it is nice all the same.
Yay on the crawling backwards!!! honestly i wish thats all MJ was still doing, its so much more hard work going around after them and the cleaning.... ahhhh, she finds every bit of dog hair and outs it in her mouth
Well I am back from Melbourne and had such a wonderful time. We went out with our friends and went to the housewarming. Two very big nights and very little sleep but it was so nice to sleep during the day with a hangover and without a baby crying hahaha But it was sooooooo good to come home and see DJ with open arms and a big smile on his face as soon as he saw me. He is also crawling a little bit more forward now, did 4 steps forward on Friday and mum said he has been doing a bit more each day so hopefully the parts for the other gate arrive this week so we can finish baby proofing the lounge room area. Mum got his santa photo done today and it is soooooo cute I will scan it over the next few nights and upload it even have a wallet one for my purse Sooooo cute. It was so sweet of my mum to do it for us. She loved having him over the weekend, said it was exhausting but loved it. We got her a coffee table book called "Grandmas Gone Wild" haha just as a joke but she loved it. Also got her some scottish tablet, so she was loving it Oh and he is now eating alot more solids and opening his mouth which he wasn't doing before. I am so relieved.
Anyway girls I am off to bed, I will respond with personals tomorrow
I've been stuck at home yesterday and today with a middle ear infection. The doctor said it's strange for adults to get them but that he's had about 5 adults in the past month with them which is a lot.
He said Jazz should hopefully not get one. She might get the cold I have, but it might not develop into an ear infection. He said that the prime age for them is between the ages of 8 months and 8 years. She's just on the border of that.
She's "talking" heaps more now, and blowing raspberries all the time.
We are waiting for the landlord to come and fix our roof. On Sunday some tiles fell off and there is a small hole in the roof. We rang the emergency number for the property manager on Sunday, then again on Monday to find out what was happening, he said he'd contacted the landlord and they would be coming over some time...but they didn't. We rang the property manager again this morning and he was appauled that they didn't come yesterday. So we rang the landlord direct at their house. No answer, left a message with all of our contact numbers. Will try ringing at lunch time if we haven't heard from them. I'm getting worried coz it looks like rain is coming.
Well I suppose it's about time I updated everyone on Jake and I LOL it's been a few months!!
Ok, I started back at work a month or so ago, I work on my hubby's days off (he works a 4 on 4 off shift roster) and he looks after Jake for me while I am at work. This is the best thing I have EVER done for our relationship as he now understands how hard it is to look after a baby all the time, being away from Jake has made me apreciate him more and as a whole our family is much stronger because of it.
Jake is "crawling" more of a caterpillar style but he goes around th whole house like that he also is starting to "crawl" but has only gone a little ways so far, he prefers the caterpillar method though he does spend a great deal of time on his hands and knees
He's having 4 meals a day of solids plus milk, but still isn't an overly fat baby, just very long he's still waaaay down the ladder in the weight ranges but there is not much I can do about that but keep shoveling the food in
Anyway no rest for the wicked, we bought a house so it's time for me to get back to packing for the big move!!
Sooooo cute. It was so sweet of my mum to do it for us. She loved having him over the weekend, said it was exhausting but loved it. We got her a coffee table book called "Grandmas Gone Wild" haha just as a joke but she loved it. Also got her some scottish tablet, so she was loving it
