Afternoon Girls....

Sorry have been MIA...This is the first time i have been able get onto BB. The pages just won't load for me and when i can load the pages it won't let me post. Don't know what is going on. Anyways....

We are all going fine. Briley is good. She has been having heaps of issues with her gums lately though. I think i might have to buy some bongella or something to rub on there for her when they are sore. I don't think she is teething but they must just be coming up and down on her. She is rolling a little now. She looks up and turns her head and tries to push off her back legs. She is such a sticky beak!! She look around everywhere behind her now when she is layin on the ground. It's so cute. She also LOVES the t.v!! Always twisting her head around to see what is on!! I prop her up on the lounge next to me sometimes so she can watch with me. She has also really started laughing....it is the cutest thing i have ever heard. She and I were just laughing at each other the other day. I was in tears i was laughing and crying that hard. I was really emotional....

The farm is going well. My rooster has dissappered though. Not sure what happened too him. I went in to the chicken pen to let them all out and he normally hides under the mulberry bush but he was'nt there. That was a couple of days ago so i think he might be gone for good. We are having a really big house warming on the 21st Oct. It will be a hungi dinner....YUM YUM!!! I can't wait. We are having 2 big bomb fires aswell. Real bushies party!! Lots of the fruits are starting to come on now. 2 of the avocado trees are chockas. The grapes are starting to come on now too. And there are sh*t loads of blossoms on the mango trees. We are going to be busy bee's anyhow.

Shazz - Great to hear that Ryan is growing nicely. I was thinking..."Jeez Briley must be a small baby", cause most of the babies here a way bigger than Briley. But then i remember a lot of them are much older than her too.

Kim - Sorry to hear that you were having drama's with Darcy. Is this the first time she has been sick?? She probably does'nt have the energy to roll over at the moment. Briley was really irritable when she was sick. She did'nt drink much either while she was sick. She just slept heaps. I felt for her heaps. They all have to go through it i suppose.

Nat - I can't believe Em is nearly 5 months already. All the babies in here are getter older so quick. Briley seem to be taking forever!! Is he teething too?? Good to hear that Kellee is going ok. I wondered what happened to her. She has been quiet.

Leanne - Great to hear that you are going well with your PND. I always do that with the cleaning thing. I start on one thing and then get distracted by another and then by the time i finish there is crap everywhere i am worse off then when i started!! Briley goes to bed at about 9ish but her last bottle is about 7/8ish and she sleeps through till 7.She always has about 270mls though. She never has less than that. I would say she probably has about 4-5 bottles a day. She only has that many bottles cause she has such big amounts. She drank 330ml the other day. I could'nt believe it!!

Mummy - You should'nt feel bad about putting Phoebe on formula. If she was'nt getting enough and was'nt settling then it was the best option. I wished could've b/f Briley for longer. But she just was'nt latching on properly. I was making plenty of milk. But my boobs and nipples are naturally really big so when i was b/f they were huge and she just could'nt get in there to feed properly. I really hope to be able to do it next time though. Good luck with it all.

Vic - I feel for you mate!! 2 babies teething....you must be pulling your hair out. Sometimes i feel really bombarded with just Briley. How do you do it with 4??? I want 4 kids too but!! You must get a lot of support from your hubby hey?? Well goodluck with it all mate...

Sorry if i missed out on anyone. Hope that all is well with you all.

We go for our 4 month needles on Thursday which i am a little apprensive about. I hope and that she is having a good day that day and she might handle it all well. I will get her weighed and all that as well to see how she is going.

I will be back on tomorrow some time to see how everyone is going. Talk to you all then.

Ciao
