Oh wow it is getting so hard to keep up in here now!

Lulu - So sorry to hear of your loss

Sangie - I would think that it is much easier, you save on mopping lol, just pop the mat in the wash

Danni - It ain't over till it's over girl. I'll keep my fingers and toes crossed for you.

Dan - Congrats on becoming an Auntie! I'll keep my fingers and toes crossed for you.

Tan - Sorry to hear about Izzy and her ear infections. Have you had a read up on antibiotics and ear infections? It has apparently been proven that they do nothing to help the infection unless it is a certain type ( you can tell I am a medical guru ) the best mode of care is to give Panadol, warm baths and hope that it doesn't last long. Usually it resolves easily but sometimes the drum will burst and then it takes a few days to heal. I am a long time sufferer of ear problems and I am currently awaiting surgery for grommets once again. Just something to look into. I found a news article No antibiotics for ear infections - Kids and parenting - MSNBC.com

Michelle - What a nice break for you, you deserve it though. I don't know how you manage with 3!!! Have fun camping!

Ashlee - Great to hear Blake is on the mend. Brown suede sofa? I am so green with envy!!! I hope things are going well with Dave.

That looks as far back as I can go for the moment. to everyone I have missed.

Well Dan and Danni, I may be joining you on the TTC game if you are not successful this round. I hope it is good news all around though. I have been getting bad cramping again and this time there is red spotting instead of brown and more of it. Still not enough to say it is over but it looks to be heading that direction.

My visit with my dad was interesting. He seems uncomfortable around children and when he drove me 8 minutes to the mall to meet up with my step dad, some guy cut him off and he proceded to speed up and sit on the guys rear for the length of the road cursing his head off. All with a baby in the car. He expects me to go on the 5 hour drive to Penticton with him with a driving attitude like that? I think not. I don't want to see him again but I hate to hurt him.

No other news from me, I have been busy keeping my feet up and not much else. Hope everyone is having a great sleep! Will try to keep up a little more often.

Tan-If Izzy is getting reccurent ear infections, you may want to investigate further with an ear nose throat specialist. Her eustacian tube may not be functioning right, and may benefit from grommets. Just a thought, as I know how terrible ear infections really are.

Sarah-Hoping ths bean sticks for you, fingers crossed xoxo

Lulu-Sorry to hear of your loss

Dan-Congrats Aunty

[Shellbelle]

Yay Dan, an aunty!!! Congrats!! Hope Af stays away for you also!

Sarah, hope your little bubba hangs on in there. On a positive, I had heaps of bleeding with Angus up until about 16wks, so I hope it is all OK for you, and your little bubba stays with you.

Ash, I am glad you changed your ticker photo - Blakey looked so in the hosp one!! He is such a handsome man. How is everything going with ex DH??

Tan, bum about the ear infections, but like Ash said, if she is getting heaps I would be getting a second opionion form an ENT! GL!

Sorry, gotta cut it short - my man is being a pain today, he is so grumpy and following me round the house, time for bed!!!

[Ashlee]

Shell-Yeh the hospital one was a bit depressing, but nevertheless it happened Is Angus a grumpy bum cos of his toothy pegs???

Blakey has cut 11 teeth now, and cutting the 12th so 4 front top, 4 front bottom, 2 bottom molars and 1 up top with another top one coming through. He cuts teeth in 4's luckily enough so it's not a painstaking process anymore. He chewed his hand so hard the other day he was bruised the silly little mite.

Mum's been watching him while I work and overnight too so I've only been seeing him for short bursts every 2 days or so, and I just had him before work and I miss him so much. He is all about high fiving everybody and waving at everybody and it's just so adorable, I feel like I've missed out on so much

[Shellbelle]

Oh Ash, is so hard trying to juggle work and kids. I am just finding I am so cranky, tired and stressed all the time cause with work and all the household chores, I can never fit enough into a day. Angus has 7 teeth, and 1/2 a molar lol!!! It is just poking through still, think it is stuck there!! So I think his crankiness is teeth related, and picking up on Mummy's stress!! DH told me last night I need to get my sh$t together cause I am always mad. Hmm, think I need to work on that. Most of it is financial stress, which is made so much worse by lack of sleep! GL, hope Blakey is all better now and his teeth come through quickly!!

[sangie]

Sarah I hope everything is ok..........I had some bleeding in pg too up until around 14 weeks and obviously everything was fine. Thinking of you

Ash aawwww I bet you miss your little man but you have to do what you have to do hey? Wow at Blakey's mouth full of teeth!

Shell I hope Angus gets over his cranky phase and that molar hurries up! No molars here yet and no sign of them but I think some more bottom teeth are coming.

Feeling so tired today, work has been a bit crazy at the moment and looks like I will have to more hours than I want to this week. Think I might go and have a rest while Ellie is sleeping.

to everyone else, hope you are all having a wonderful day!

[Danni]

sarah, i am so sure everything will be fine for you. I reckon you have a little pink bundle in there!
