Hi girls, - LONG POST HERE SORRY!

Well i have been exhausted thats for sure. I have no idea how i am still going.......

Last week was ok had a few sleepless nights as Tayneesha has been waking up a couple of times and i thought just teeth as she would go straight back to sleep.

Anyway this week has been a different story she has been up and down like a yo yo every night this week and it has just killed me as i am getting about 4 hrs a sleep a night sometimes less and then still going during the day! DH works hard in the heat as a carpenter and needs his rest so its up to me to run the household, clean and all of that Iukwim.
Anyway she went to daycare on Thursday and they called me in the arvo to tell me that Tayneesha had come up in a rash all over her. I FREAKED OUT! Took her to the dr that arvo and he told me that she had this thing called
Roseola Infantum -A mild disease of infants and children characterized by fever lasting three days followed by an eruption of rose-colored spots called also exanthem subitum.
She also had a red throat and some ulcers on it as well so this was making her feel even worse.

This explains why she had been so unsettled all last week! He told me to give her panadol and nurofen together and keep this up until she becomes normal again. Yesterdasy was her best day of the week thats for sure but last night she was very unsettled and i am sure it is her sore throat. She had a great day at daycare though and her old self was back the girls told me....
The DR told me that In far nrth qld - Cairns this is going around in all the daycare centres at the moment as well as another disease Foot and Mouth which is similar! I told the daycare centre and the director's baby 10mth old had had it last week so tayneesha would have got it off her as they are good friends. Scared me and has been hard on me thats for sure when i am doing it all alone and me being sick still too but not to worry I just try and think of other people who are alot worse off than me!

Ok so enough of down in the dumps stuff - Tayneesha is walking everywhere she is so cute and just does not want to crawl. had her check up a while ago and she is 9.7 kg her height is 78cm and head - 45.5cm all going really well and very happy. She is till eating the fruit, veges and all of that but meat no meat still. Any tips from anyone i have tried everything.... I may have a vegetarian on my hands?

Jen - I went to the ob and all going really wel no probs at all, blood pressure good, baby all good, still a girl which we now call Shayla as that is going to be her name. Yes it was hard for my DH to be overseas for a long time i only saw him three times a year for three weeks only each time. But his boss did fly me to Africa Tanzania for a holiday and paid for it so i can't complain i had a trip of a lifetime out of it. No still not over my cold or whatever it is but i am over it totally and just wish it would vanish. Oh i hope you get this house how exciting, a new house a new year. I love moving into new homes and all of that. for you and you family.

Kas - If only Tayneesha would eat like Liam. Sounds like he had a great time, hope you took lots of pics. Yeah for the frame and that going up on your new house kas, you must be so excited that things are moving along for you. I would be going there every day and looking in excitement. LOL

Jimsteph - Oh poor Cailin with the others running rings around him. He will be off one day and you will be gobsmaked. I say the longer they crawl the better....
I hope you and DH get some time alone to yourselves, maybe you could go out to diner somewhere without the kids? Or maybe have a picnic on the beach and take the kids with you and et them run riot while you and DH have a break? I hope you do getto have a small amount of time together, it will do you voth the world of good.

ok well must be off i can smell stinky butt!!!! LOL
