Ha, I don't know if Ari has ever seen DH naked (well since being old enough to understand) She does know that she can make her brother run pretty quickly if she rreaches for you know what in the bath tub - she thinks it's hilarious

[Ozziehoffy]

ahaha... all these little girls sound soooo cute! Can Oskar join the "shoe collection club"?? He's got ummmm about 6 pairs I think. I just have to make sure he matches you know! He chucks wobblies.... like yesterday, didn't have a sleep cos he chucked it so bad and couldn't go to sleep! Was bad though cos I've been sick for the past 3 days with a lovely tummy bug... blurgh!!! Was wondering if I was getting mid pg m/s as at night it seemed to ease off and I could eat an orange. Doc thinks that was tummy bug though and I feel heaps better today.

Yay Claire for doing wees!!! If we tell Oskar we're going to the toilet then he runs up with us going wee wees wee wees..lol and knows his potty is for that but hasn't used it as yet.

As for being naughty... or shall I say testing the boundaries, oh boy can he do that!! He was climbing up on the coffee table all the time... it's a BIG square one and we use it upstairs for the tv - pushed into a corner. Got to the point where he'd look at you, put his knee up and look again then get up. So we started to put him in his highchair as "time out" and it worked really fast! When he's naughty now you just ask him if he wants to go in his chair and it works almost every time.

Sarah, try not to worry hun, I know it is hard but she seems to be perfectly fine.

I think I better go before Oskar starts to chuck it, he wants me OFF THE COMPUTER MUMMY!! lol. Keeps coming and trying to drag me off.

[Karina]

Cass, Oskar sounds like a cheeky little man! Hope youre feeling better now. I hate tummy bugs! Claire LOVES toilets. I really have no idea why the obsession. I hope I havent made things worse by buying her her own special toilet. lol! We're going to start doing time out with her soon, when she's being a bit too difficult.

Sarah, haha about Ari in the bath with Xander! I have to admit, I probably did that to my brother as well. Our parents used to put us both in the bath together till we were like 4!

Claires going feral this week. She's cutting 2 teeth at moment and doesnt want to eat and doesnt want to wake up in the morning.. she's getting the canine teeth.

At daycare, Claire leanrt a new thing. Apparently, because she's so little, the bigger boys are a big rough with her and she doesnt like it (she's so delicate!) so the carer taught her how to say STOP. So cute! She holds her hand up and says "DOP".

[Ozziehoffy]

Karina, OMG how adorable!! You need to try to video her doing that. She's such a little cutie.

I have put a pic of my belly up now. Click on Oskar's name and it should pop up, if not it's in the album named "bubs 2 belly".

Had an interesting afternoon yesterday. Joshua decided to punch a fire hydrant at school.... instead of a person, which is good but still not ideal. Turns out he broke his hand.... ahhh the joys of teenage boys...lol. So, now he's got plaster on his right hand, so can't write at school - not that he did anyway!!!

The only sentences Oskar uses are "go car" and "row row"... he holds his hands out palms up with his little fingers curled up a bit and goes "row row" when he wants you to do row row row the boat...ahhaha...makes me laugh cos he goes up to the tv and does it to people there!!

Anyway must be off, meeting a friend for a coffee and will run late (as usual) if I stay here much longer.

[Karina]

Cass, how cute about Oskars row row thing! What a sweetie! Your belly looks cute. Haha at the other photo of Oskar asleep in his highchair!

[Arimeh]

Hi Girls
OMG its been so long. I am at work at the moment with a bit of a break now so going to look through to see what is happening.
I hope everyone is well and babies well toddlers now are doing well.
So sorry its taken me this long to get back into it...

[SossiGirl]

Hi Again..

It sounds like motherhood is treating everyone very well. Congrats to those who are pregnant.

Kaiden is running riot, he is a cheeky little bugger. So talkative, chatter chatter chatter whether in bed, in the car, playng with is toys, or while he is eating dinner. We go to playgroup every week which is loves and now I can go into the kitchen without him hanging off the gate screaming and carrying on. We also do swimming on Saturday mornings and that is with DH so he loves that.

The past two nights Kaiden has allowed me to put him to bed, normally it is DH and only DH that is allowed to put him to bed and read him books. During the day its fine, Mama is great but soon as Dada gets home, I am forgtten about. Which in way is great because I can do all the things I need to, but it does get a bit sad when only Dada is allowed to do things and mama isnt.. :-(..

We are waiting for his molers to come through he has all other teeth which has been a nightmare at times. He also got an ear infections and OMG... what a nightmare that was. I had never seen him so ill before it was horrible. We were on vacation when it happened and the last two nights we didnt get any sleep at all, took him straight to GP and got some antibiotics to clear it up, i didnt want to have to put him on antibiotics but sometimes it is just the last resort and wanted to get him better.

I am still working two days per week which i am loving, but looking forward to staying at home a bit longer with the next baby. We are going to start trying for bubs number 2 in February. After I turn 30.. that is..lol...

Anways enough from me, glad to be back..

Son

[Ozziehoffy]

Sonia welcome back!

[Catastrophic]

Hey thanks
I'm so excited! I have my first scan to see my lil man in 3 weeks! I'm pretty sure its a boy just a feeling... Felt a girl with izzy and this one feels like a boy
But also so scared it doesnt seem real did another pregnancy test today to make sure (so far have done 2 urine, blood test, an another pee stick today hehehe!)

I would type more but i gotta go get ready for work!
Bye

[Karina]

Oh Cassie!! I saw your Caltrate post lol!! Congrats!! Thats awesome.

Ozziehoffy, what a bummer about your computer. I saw on the news that there was heaps of damage to lots of houses. Are you guys ok? Yay about your scan! Are you going to find out babys gender? Oh no about Joshuas broken hand - crazy what some teenage boys do isnt it!!

Sonia, good to see you're back! Claire loves her daddy too, lol. When he gets home, she doesnt care about me any more. Hope little Kaiden is feeling much better now.

I'm at home today with Claire and she is such a crazy child! Her new favourite word is "door" so EVERY TIME we see any type of door, she goes over to it, points and says "door" over and over and over until I pick her up and move her away from the door. I just dont understand her obsession with doors?! Its very bizarre. Any one elses kids obsessed with random things like that?

She did a really strange thing the other day actually. My mum was at our place and was reading a book with Claire and all of a sudden Claire got up and found my mums keys and bag, and brought them over to my mum. She then started pointing to the door and saying "byebye" to my mum. It was like Claire wanted her nanna to go.. It was very wierd. She's never done that to anyone before and I have no idea where it came from. It was very random. She was very insistant that my mum leave and she kept on saying bye and trying to lead her to the door.

Anyhooo I really URGENTLY need to do a bit of cleaning, lol!

[SossiGirl]

Karina.. Kaiden is obsessed with doors, keys and cars, everyday he needs to sit in either mine or DH car and pretend he is driving etc. We spend at least 30 minutes sitting in the car. Also when we get home for anywhere, I am not allowed to open the doors to the house, he needs to do it so i have to hold hiim up while he unlocks both doors.. he also is obsessed with putting all his toys away back in order and lining up all his cars, he also makes sure all his shoes are lined on his shelf. I think he is OCD already!!...

OMG about Claire getting the keys and bag and saying bye bye to Nanna.. Poor Nanna... lol

[Karina]

Haha yeah I think Nanna was slightly offended at Claire asking her to leave!
How cute that Kaiden HAS to unlock the doors, lol! Thats nice that he likes to put all his shoes and toys away, Claire just scatters hers all over every room in the house .

[Catastrophic]

Karina - poor nanna! That sounds so cute but horrible lol! Thanks Karina

Sonia - Hehe How cute! Izzy likes to unlock the doors too! and puts all her toys away! Except for when she is in a mood lol~! Good luck TTCing next year hope bubs comes quickly

Cass thanks hunny! have fun at your scan Mines on the 10/12!!! Hope your pc is fixed soon!

Sarah - thanks hunny!

Well izzy is another one that is obsessed with shoes~! she threw a message tantrum the other day because i wouldnt let her wear my boots out shopping! she lovess bubbas and gets so excited everytime she sees one!

and tim has taught her to point to my belly and say Bubba already lol! the boys are kinda excited i think they will get more excited as i get fatter :P but they won't just be getting one new sibling... their mum is pregnant as well due three weeks before me, so they are getting two new siblings within a month!

Anyway i have to go! Gotta go eat something before i start vomiting everywhere! this morning sickness is horrendous already! I'm nauseated from the time i get up untill i go to bed! luckily i have worked out i feel a little better if i eat

[Ozziehoffy]

Did ya's miss meeeeeee??? lol. Comp is fixed.

Karina, Oskar decides who he wants to have a bath with and that type of thing. He used to ALWAYS have a bath with Andy and now it seems to be less and less and more with me. Kind of a bummer cos that was my ME time...lol. He will drag me by the hand and wave bye to Andy.

Cass, I had awful m/s with this one.... lucky it seems to have gone now!

Karina, we're ok. We're going to have a tree chopped down though, it lost huge branches and it's too close to the house and we were already contemplating it, but the storm made the decision for us!

Scan tomorrow...WOOHOO!! We're not finding out gender, but I would love pink and part of me sometimes wonders if we should find out....lol.... if they said pink though I'd probably go crazy shopping and we have friends who were told pink and have 2 wks before found out it was blue and they have a whole pink room and now have 2 boys...lol.

Oskar has hand foot and mouth virus at the moment...but only 1 spot...lol. The only reason I took him to the doc about ONE spot on the heel of his hand was because one of his little friends had been in contact with someone who had it otherwise I would never have paid much attention to it at all and certainly not taken him to the doc. He's all good though and should be right as rain to play with his friends again by Friday. Yay for me...lol.

[SossiGirl]

Cass Did your house get much damage to it? What does the spot look like? Glad to hear Oskar is all ok now to play with his friends.. its sad when they miss out on their playtime with their buddies. We missed playgroup last week cause i went in for day surgery and I felt so bad that Kaiden had to miss out on his day with his friends.

Good luck with scan tomorrow, v exciting indeed. DH and I have decided to find out what we were having for our next one. Like you if we were told it was a girl then I would be straight to the shops and would go crazy, the amount of gorgeous girls clothing out is unbelievable. I would keep all receipts though just in case like your friend it turned out to be a boy.

When I went shopping on Friday with my mum we went into Target (massive store) and Kaiden wasnt in his pram as we gave him a little walking time, in that little walking time he disappeared. I remained calm (to my surprise) however my mum well she went red like a beetroot, she was screaming his name and running around yelling at the ladies. After about 3 minutes but felt like an hour a lady spotted him in the fitting room (to which i had been in but didnt see him) only a metre from where we were. He had shut the door and was looking at himself in the mirror and the lady could see his feet.. Of course after that he went straight back into the pram. He is normally good when he is out of the pram he holds on to it, but this time he just took off. The thing for us was that Mum and I both had our eyes on him and then all of a sudden he was gone.. Has anyone had this happen yet??? I got home told DH and he was like you have to keep your eyes on him.. I did I said, but I was sort of made to feel like a bad mother..
