Happy Birthday Izzy!!!!!!!!! Hope you had a great day sweetie!
Thanks for all your lovely words. We went to see Al's parents yesterday and they are doing pretty well considering, now we are just planning and organising stuff for the funeral on Tuesday, plus Al's brother arrives from Canada this morning.
Won't be around much over the next few days I don't think - have a great day all!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY IZZY!!!!!

[lee75]

Hi everyone, thought I would pop in while I had a spare 5 minutes to catch up with what's been happening, can't believe all our little bubs are all turning one. I get to hang onto mine for about 3 weeks before he turns the big 1, make the most of my little baby!!

Ash - how are you feeling hun? I am so sorry to hear about you and Dave big to you.

Shelle - Woohoo for Angus walking, know how you feel about a never ending pile of washing, hubby has been doing the washing since yesterday, think he has one load to go, mind you I have no idea why he is washing so much!!!

Tan - I am so happy you are having great support in wanting a VBAC, it would be the best thing to know you have that much support and have no-one putting you down for it. I am sorry to hear about Al's grandpa

Lis - I know what you mean about hubby not "knowing" thing, I asked hubby to get some dinner ready for Ethyn one night, he had to ask, what do I give him, how much, how warm, where's the paper towel!! I tell ya, makes you want to pull your hair out sometimes, but I guess you just have to bite your tongue and let them do it!!

Jan - so glad Julian party went well, we have finally sorted what we are doing for Ethyn, just have to buy things for it now

Dan - I would be fuming if Ethyn came home from child care with bites on him too, surely the centre can do something, have the parents been told that this is happening?

Kass - bet you are heaps excited about seeing your sis tomorrow, enjoy your time with her and I'm sure she will fall in love with Annabelle straight away!!!

A big happy belated birthday for Izzy yesterday, hope you got spoilt rotten!!!

Lulu - how are you going, bet you are soooo over this!!!!

Hope everyone is well, and a big to everyone!!

Thanks to Ethyn's KK, he loves his pressie (I couldn't resist getting him to open it!!!)
Ethyn has been good, he's not walking yet, but still walking around the furniture and walking when you hold him up assisted. We are taking him to a paediatrician on Tuesday, I am not happy with all the ear infections and snotty noses that he keeps having, the docs say nothing wrong, so I thought it was better to get a 2nd opinion.
Ok must go, dinner is nearly ready. Have a great rest of the weekend!!!

Thanks for all the birthday wishes ladies. Izzy had a lovely party for everyone else today but the birthday girl was a little overwhelmed by all the people. Its been a beautiful day here so we were out in the backyard but after about 20 minutes she kept trying to come back inside until we just gave up and DH, mum and I took it in turns to have her inside while everyone else enjoyed cake outside. She didn't seem to appreciate my artistic talents making her a lovely green and pink turtle cake either!! She got spoilt rotten (thanks Lis and Elena!) with her KK and everybody else - ponies, books, toys and a great princess sofa that folds out with a sleeping bag in it. She's going from one to the next to the next at the moment although the sofa seems to be a real winner.

Ned might be thinking about doing something. Had lots of trips to the loo today and have lost heaps of my mucus plug so crossing my fingers. Good of her to wait until her big sister had her birthday celebrations completed!

Lee - I'm not sure what I hope for you with the paed visit. While its never nice to hear something is wrong, sometimes its nice to at least have a reason for things that you feel shouldn't keep happening. Hopefully its nothing at all serious though and your little man is fine.

Tan - I hope the funeral goes as well as these things ever can for you and Al. Sending you big hugs.

[Liviam]

Lulu I won't be at all surprised if you go in the next two - three days. I never thought you would go early as you wanted so badly to have Izzy's 1st birthday and I honestly believe that we have some control. I can't wait to hear all about Ned's safe and quick arrival. How's the name coming along?

[sangie]

Oooohhh Lulu sounds like Ned might be getting ready for her fashionably late arrival........best of luck hun! Yep I reckon she wanted to wait for her big sister to have her special day first. Glad the party went well.

Tan big hugs for you guys and I hope that Tuesday is a lovely tribute to Al's pa.

Lee I also get to keep my 'baby' for couple more weeks! Good luck with the paed, let us know how you go.

Dan any sign of AF yet? Bet you never wanted to come so much lol !

I'm really tired so sorry for not getting to everybody! I went out today with a couple of girlfriends who I hadn't seen for a while and it was so much fun - just a casual day out for lunch and some shopping. Ellie spent some time with my sister today who has come to the realization that babies are a lot of hard work lol - hhhmmmm think I have sorted her out for contraception ha ha !

[LoveKnowsNoBounds]

Best of luck Lulu for a quick and safe delivery of Ned. I can't wait to hear the news!!!! It sounds like it will be soon

[LuluHB]

I've had enough of the waiting. DH and I are going to gold class this afternoon. I had a dream when I was a week off due with Izzy that my waters broke in gold class (we were going the next day) but they didn't, so I'm hoping I was just a year out. Nothing like booking expensive, non-refundable movie tickets to get the kid moving!

[Danni]

Hy lulu, i cant believe Ned isnt here. I havent logged on for a fw days and I really thought I would read an annoucement today. Well I hope your waters break in gold class. Makes for a fantastic story, trust me! All the best sweetie.

Hi to everyone else! Mason had his birthday party on Saturday and OH MY GOD, never ever again. We had 50 adults and 20 kids and it was so full on. it cost us around $600. And there was so much food wastage....grrr im so angry.

Anyway it went really well and he got spoilt but luckily didnt double up on anything and got reazlly practical things. Heaps of really fun books and educational toys. So im glad!

Hope everyone is doing well xx

[Shellbelle]

Hi Everyone!!! Just a quick hello! We have been camping all the long weekend, and now have swimming and Dr's appt today! So my house looks like a bomb site with dirty washing, dishes etc from camping, and now we have to go out and leave a big mess!!!! Oh well! Anyway, thought I would check in (no birth announcement yet Lulu!) and bbl for a more thorough update!! Hope everone had a lovely weekend!!!!!

[sangie]

Morning all!

Yep I was just popping in to check on you Lulu, so did the gold class tickets work?? Seems you are putting up a good service in there......I'm imagining Ned sitting back, popping on a DVD and chilling out!

Danni glad Mason got spoilt! It's Elena's party in 2 weeks and I'm not going to work out how much I'm going to have to spend.......oh well like you said they are only 1 once!

Hey Shell enjoy the swimming and make sure you get EVERYONE to help you clean up !!!

Tan thinking of you guys today

Ash are you ok?
Ok better go get some work done, ciao lovelies!

[LuluHB]

Still here. Grrrrrrrrrrrr. After such a sh*tty few weeks with pains I've had almost nothing for the last couple of nights. I'm starting to wonder if this baby is all in my mind and I've really just been eating waaaay too much! It was a good movie though - if anyone gets the chance go and see Iron Man. Sooooooo over this now. We came home from the movie last night and Izzy ran right past me to go to DH. Made me so sad. I know I'm not playing with her like I was, and DH is spending lots of time with her - gets her up in the morning and then baths her and puts her to bed at night. I know I should be happy she's not clingy anymore but it just makes me so sad. Getting a bit depressed . . .

Danni - glad Mason has a good birthday party and got spoilt rotten. Just the way it should be!!

Tan - good luck today.

Lis - I'm closing the hotel down!!

[LoveKnowsNoBounds]

I often feel the same lulu, I get rejected by Julian for nearly anyone - his grandparents, aunties, uncles and most especially DH. The clinic nurse told me it is a good thing, that they have a healthy attachment to us and it means they feel loved and secure and know we will always be there in the wings waiting for them. It still sucks when they run off to their dads though doesn't it!!

I hope Ned doesn't make you wait too much longer...maybe she is hanging out for Mothers day I can imagine you would rather be anywhere else that day, though it would be some mothers day present!

[Liviam]

Lulu NED is hanging out to be bORN ON FRiday so she can have the same birthday as me and Livvy!!!! I have to say it is a fantastic day to be born .
I completely appreciate who upsetting it is when our little PRINCesses choose their dads over us. I hat it too and Livvy is a HUGE daddy's girl and doesn't mind showing it. Breaks my heart some days. But I agree with what Jan said, it is a sign of a well adjusted baby so congrats on doing such a great job with raising your princess!

[Beach Mama]

Hi all, just back from the funeral and we are all exhausted. It was an absolutely beautiful day with some lovely memories of Pa, lots of tears but some laughter and overall it was a great tribute to a lovely man. Izzy was a little angel - fell asleep after a short walk with my mum during the service, and quietly chatting during the private cremation. Such a treasure and in some ways made our day a bit brighter.
Anyway I am waaaay too tired to post personals, have been reading though but have to say Lulu - hang in there hun, I know it's tough but not long to go - remind me of that won't you in a few months time!!!
Chat soon lovelies!

[Shellbelle]

Just a quick one again, sorry guys. i think I am getting tonsillitis, my throat is killing me, I can barely swallow. Just wanted to wish you good luck Tan for your scan tomorrow, can't wait to hear all about your gumnut! Glad your Pa's funeral was a lovely memoriam to him.

Lis, If I waited for help round here nothing would ever get done!!!!

Lulu, I am sure you will be holding your beautiful girl before the weekend!!

Nighty night all!!
