Cass, the rotavirus vax sounds scary with all those horrible side effects. I'm just getting the schedule ones done for Claire. Oh yeah at the hospital they gave me frozen glove fingers, PMSL, it was water in gloves frozen!! If I were Claire, I wouldnt want to be sucking my toes - she has SMELLY feet. HAHAH on Oskars new discovery!!! How nice that you are catching up with your old workmate, I am crap at keeping in touch with people!
Claire is having a nap on the lounge next to me. She looks so cute when she sleeps. Actually, she looks just like my hubby does when he sleeps. She definately looks more like him than me. She sleeps in such a strange position too - I always look at her and wonder how she could possibly be comfortable at all. Bought a differnt type of nappy the other day and they are CRAPPY! I am getting a builder to come in tomorrow and fix my ceiling that was damaged a year ago. I am glad it got damaged because I have always wanted a new ceiling in that room. Bonus too I dont have to pay for it because the damage was caused by someone else!
Well that is my exciting life!
Cassblob, how is your friend doing? Has her baby been born yet? Is the hospital doing anything for her?
Sarah, i just noticed your new avatar, very nice.
-
last i heard she was ready to push... now im just waiting~!~!~! They better look after her, i think the nurses getting shyyty at me lol...
-
lil destiney was born 1.20am this morning... mum n bub doing well will no more later...
Desteney Louise weighs 4.4pounds / 2038grams ...
-
Karina... lol @ frozen water in gloves!!
Cass, great to hear her little bub is doing well. Is she still in special care? Such a little bubba. Too bad if the nurses were getting ****ty with you!! You were looking out for your friend.
We went to our first babes in arms this morning. Saw Harry Potter which was pretty good. My friend's little bubs had a grizzle and she was getting a bottle ready for her and can you believe someone up the back actually went SHHHH .... I mean... HELLO, IT'S A BABES IN ARMS SESSION IDIOT! lol. I found out though that you can take your bubs to any session but if it's not a babes in arms session and they start to get grizzly you have to go outside with them. Other than that we haven't done much today, walked around the shops for a little while and had some lunch.
-
Cassblob, congrats to your friend! Hope they start looking after her and her buba better. So tiny!
Cass, glad you enjoyed the movie! We are going to go to a babes in arms movie session in a few weeks, with my mums group. At our local cinema they have a sound proof room in the back of the theatre so you dont annoy everyone else in the theatre. I think its a bit freaky though, like being locked in a box, but you dont have to go in the box, its just for if you feel bad about disturbing everyone else or if you want a better place to feed baby. What a stupid idiot for shooshing your friend! Why would you go to a Babes in Arms session if you didnt wan to hear babies!
Some people I know (who I didnt even know were pregnant!) had a little girl yesterday, Eloise.
Got my new ceiling put in today and its very sexy. Much sexier than the old ceiling. Claire slept through half the time they were here, even though they were drilling and hammering and making HEAPS on noise. But now she is spewing up lots of milk. She has spewed about 15 minutes after I have finished feeding her for each feed today.
DH is out tonight till about 10pm, yet again. He has been out sunday-mon-tues-wed-thurs-sat-sunday-mon-tues-wed nights in addition to his usual full time work hours. He will be hearing stern words tonight when he gets home. Its not fair on us for him to be out so much like that. I feel like I am the lowest thing on his list of priorities and it makes me feel like crap.
ok thats enough whinging from me. Hope everyone has had a lovely day.
-
PMSL Caro. I was going to if they did it again. I was going to stand up and say UMMM HELLO!! BABES IN ARMS SESSION IDIOT!! ahem, lucky they didn't cos maybe they woulda bashed me!! lol. Movie rage!
Karina... I had to laugh when you called your ceiling sexy!! Oskar slept through them installing the a/c the other week too!! I was amazed, weird huh. Oooh naughty DH. I'd be majorly peeved at Andy if he did that as often as that! He's actually pretty good, but probably only cos he got in serious trouble once when he didn't actually tell me he was going to visit a friend on the way home from work and I was stressing he'd been in an accident. They don't have a box at the cinema I went to today, I don't think I'd use it though. It's nice being able to go and see a movie and not worry about having to walk out :D
Just popped some new piccies on the site. I have added a new album too cos I was going to have too many pics in the 12 wks up folder. So there are some new pics in the 12 wks to 4 mths folder (last 5 pics - numbers 30-35) and then 3 newies in the 4 mths - 6 mths.
-
Cass I am majorly peeved and hubby will be hearing all about it when he decides its time to see his wife and daughter. Oh, the ceiling is SEXY. Well you know, as much as a ceiling can be sexy LOL and even more sexy because I didnt have to pay for it (done through insurance). Oskar is such a cutie! The tray on the Bumbo looks cool - looks like you could use it like a high chair (sort of, iykwim)? We have that exact same teething thing (the keys), LOL but Claire hasnt got the hang of it yet. Hehe at his mullet, Claires got the same hair style too and a bald patch.
Oh yeah I have finally stopped losing heaps and heaps of hair, so that is a relief. I felt like I was going bald!
Right now I am pigging out on a block of choc. I am going to feel so sick later on from it, but I need choc right now. lol.
-
Long time no chat, we just put an ad on another forum (won't say what ;-) so have been busy.
Karina - Yes I finally gave up my pg avatar, but I'm not sure what DS is wearing in the new one???? Yum on the choccy and yeah for your 'sexy ceiling'. My hair loss has slowed down too, I had a scary moment the other day - putting it up and a whole chunk broke off in my hand - I looked like a gremlin :-)
Cass - serously someone did that ina babes in arms session???? did they have kids? Ari went to 3 movies in her first 3mth, I just take her to the regular ones an if she grumbles she goes onto the boob. I have more trouble with DS. Oskar is so cute, I seriously have to take more photos of my daughter. I have been chasing up the info on the roto vaccine and apparently it is only if the first dose is given after 12wks and the next dose must be before 6mth.
Nothing exciting happening here ... doobee doobee twiddling thumbs, better go clean house
-
Oh little destiny was so small! Half of izzy when izzy was born!!~!~! She's doing great, not on oxygen or anything. still in NICU until she reaches 2.5kgs.
Cass i can't believe some shhhhd ur friend. And Oskar is soooooo cute!~!~ Not many photo's of you in there tho, Must be behind the camara all the time i take it :)
Karina... Whsat kind of a ceiling is sexy, is it different to a normal ceiling? hehe.. Glad you like it, and well done clair sleeping while they worked... OMG bout your hubby!
nothing much else to report here, gotta get ready to go to play group, and get out of house coz cleaner is comming... So gotta get a move on... See ya!
-
I am usually at mums group on thursday, but they havent been sending me the messages to tell me where its on at. Maybe they dont like me, I dont know.
ok Well I told off my hubby and rang him and told him to come home earlier, which he did. He doesnt seem to get it somtimes though. If someone asks him to do something, he will do it at the drop of a hat, which is nice and all but hello, what about spending time with your family? I suppose I just get annoyed because I had to stop working, give up the other stuff I did like yoga and other social things, but his commitments havent changed since Claire was born. Ok well that should hopefully be the last of my whinge!
Any how, apart from all that, Claire had a good night once hubby got home.She slept well and so I got some sleep as well until hubby started snoring like a fog horn. Claire snores too sometimes but only a tiny bit and no where near as loud as hubby. now she is having some booby. Claire loves booby.

Hi everyone...long time no post! I have been lurking in the background, reading all the happenings but haven't had time to post. 2 nights ago I wrote out a nice long post and tried to post it but they were doing upgrades or something at the time and it wouldn't post - I was rather annoyed because I had spend a fair amount of time writing it. Afraid I don't have time to do personals at the moment as Grace will be waking for a feed anytime. Just wanted to say hi. Our nights have gotten better again - had a terrible night on Saturday night where Grace was up pretty much all night - but then have had some fantastic nights this week, one night she slept from 7pm to 8am and last night she slept from 7.30pm to 7am - so that is much nicer. Have been really encouraging her to have a longer sleep in the afternoon - she will still wake after 30mins but I won't get her up and tap her back to sleep in her rocker and she goes back and then usually sleeps for another hour to hour and a half and this seems to be helping. She rolled 4 times the other day but hasn't done it again since, but I suspect that it won't be too long now and then I won't be able to just leave her anywhere, so I am really taking advantage of this for now!! Have cramped a muscle around my shoulder blade this morning and it really hurts to move my right arm or to breath so hope that fixes up soon. Off to gold coast in 2 weeks and 2 days (not that i'm counting) and I notice that it is forecast 25 degrees today and 26 degrees tomorrow - i really really hope we get that weather when we are up there, I am dying for some warmth, plus I really want to take Grace swimming while we are up there - that is nice swimming weather. Have put some more photo's on the website. Can't believe that she is 5 months old next week, it has gone so fast. Sorry can't do personal for now, but hope everyone is doing well, enjoying life and hopefully I will get a chance to get back on soon.
-
Grace still asleep so had a quick look at some photo's - Cass, Cass and Karina - gorgeous - can't believe how quickly they are all growing up. Karina, I have a flickr account too so I added you as a contact. I've been meaning to ask, how did you do it so that you click on the word photo's and it links to them rather than having the entire link in the signature? It looks so much nicer the way you have it.
-
Awww thanks girls :D I think he is too! I think it's cos he's got such a little round head and face and big eyes and smile... hehe.
Karina, Oskar hasn't got the hang of the keys thing yet either. You can use the bumbo as a high chair type of thing... well a floor chair but yes he can use it when eating. OMG chocolate, lately I've been eating it like it's going out of fashion!! I mean I've craved it! Can you get BF cravings? lol. Mind you when it comes out the other end with Oskar it's all rather smelly!!! Oh Andy had the really heavy breathing thing down pat last night so I pushed him so he'd roll over..lol. I couldn't sleep!! I'm glad your DH came home early though. Sometimes they do drop everything to help someone else and they just seem to forget they've been away from home for ages!! Men! You whinge when you need to hun! Ok, take a pic of this sexy ceiling ;) I think I need to see it..lol. I'm sure the other mum's like you!! Maybe just text one of them to find out where...?? It can be hard sometimes huh.. I've noticed in our group that there is kind of a subgroup as well. Then there's the group which go to swimming lessons.
Sarah and Cass... yes she was seriously shushed!! So rude I know! Sarah, they were ppl without kids, but still not the point. That ONE session per week is especially for ppl with little ones so they don't have to worry about that very thing!
Sarah, I haven't actually looked into the roto vax at all, just went off my docs advice. Maybe that's what he meant that if he didn't have first dose before 12 weeks. Not that it matters to me cos it wasn't around then so it's not an issue and he's not getting it. He's only really just come good yesterday from his needles on Monday. Still woke a bit early this morning but other than that a lot better. Yes, you need to share some piccies of Ari!! I bet she's grown heaps since I saw you!
Cass, she sounds so little. It's great she isn't on oxygen or anything. Must be a strong little one. lol @ me not in pics, yep pretty much mostly me taking them. I do have some but I look totally zombied or it's in the morning before I've done my hair and still have jimjams on... BAD BAD LOOK! So, those ones I'm sorry do not get shared... I love ya's... but ummm NO!...lol.
Rachel, Grace is growing up so much! She's just so cute. She looks like she loves cuddles. I love bubs who love cuddling. Oskar loves it so it's good :D I totally hate it when you write up a big post and it disappears or logs you out and won't log you back in etc. It makes me feel so angry sometimes cos it's not like your time is your own with a bubba. Good to hear she's sleeping better. 5 months?? Already??? OMG where has the time gone? We're all going to be talking about their 1st birthdays soon :(
Oskar did a lot better last night, so he must be feeling better after his needles on Monday. It was funny after his feed I put him on his belly on the lounge so I could turn off the computer and then put him to bed. He had a little chuck and rubbed his face in it, so I had to clean him...lol. Then I just put him on his back on the lounge cos he was awake from me cleaning his face. Anyway, he laid there for a while and played with my fingers then he was getting grizzly, so I literally just flipped him over and he went to sleep almost instantly when he was on his tummy!! I'm talking millisecond. Was hillarious. I just looked at him and thought WT you strange little man..it was like... on my back I am awake, on my belly I am asleep. Better go, he's grumpy and wants booby NOW! Like he's starving huh... he has rolls on his legs!
-
Rachel, how nice that Grace had a long sleep the other night. WTG on her rolling! Clever girl. Claire also did it a few times then not again for another couple of days. Hope your shoulder gets better. OOhh i would love to go to the gold coast right now. Its so cold in sydney, although today was very warm. I cant believe its been 5 months - it has gone so fast! I just saw your new photos. Grace is so beautiful! I added you in flickr too! I didnt even know there was a function for that! for my sig, I went into the settings to edit my sig, wrote the word "photos" then I highlighted it, pressed the hyperlink button ( it has a world globe and a chain link on it, above the signature box with all the other buttons) and a box popped up to put the link to my photos. Hope that makes sense!
Cass, BF is a perfectly valid reason for needing chocolate! Hehe i think I might have to take a pic of my sexy ceiling. The builder is coming back to paint it next week. Its only sexy because it looks so much nicer than the last ceiling which was in like 10 different panels and had gone all crinkly and the panels had shrunk because of water damage. Yeah the mums group I go to are lovely, but I feel a bit funny sometimes because they are all much older than me. I think I just need to bite the bullet and get over my stupid shyness!
Just went up to the local TAFE Library (my local Council one is tiny and only has like 5 shelves of books!!) and I had about 8 different people stop me and talk to me about Claire as I was walking through the college grounds to the library. Then the Loans lady was talking about her little girl who is also named Claire! Anyhow, Claire was great and didnt get cranky at all, and I was in the library for a really long time as I coudlnt find the book I wanted. I was expecting her to get grumpy as she often does when I go into libraries. I also went to Reece to check out their bathroom cabinets and got talking to the girl there. I swear we live in the same building! So that was my ultra exciting day.
Claire is now lying on the couch going "geeegeeeegeeee" and gurgling, and trying to suck on her toes. What is it with a babys fascination with their toes! Claire LOVES her toes at the moment!
-
Hehe cass... That's alright :) I like been behind the camara too :)
Thanks Racheal - they are all gorgeous!

Cass - oh congrats to your friend that is awesome that bub is doing so well. How is your friend feeling after being through everything! Yeah on the teeth, can't wait to see pics.
Karina - if it makes you feel better my mums group piked on me today too oh well cleaned my house for no good reason but at least it's clean now.
Rachel - was wondering how you were, good to hear Grace is sleeping well for you.
Ok now wait for it dum dum da.... Ari slept from.... 8pm to 5am this morning OMG!. She did her usual fussing from 8-10pm but just needed resettling then slep through. Couldn't believe it. Wish I had gone to bed earlier. Bit the bullet and went and got her needles today and had the best nurse, ari didn't even cry for the first two and she has no bruises or anything. She even spoke to me and sounded so sincere when she was talking to Ari! Told her I wanted to book her in for next time. Oh and I took some photos today - well I tried as the little boogar wouldn't sit still rolling all over the lounge room floor :-) Will put them up soon

OKey dokey here is the link, hope it works
