Babies Born May 2007 #17

Good morning mummies and kiddies,
With cold and raining here so a perfect day to spend in our pj's and vege out around the house eating lots of choccies.
Shell - Thinking of you and your family today. Hope the funeral is a lovely send off to your grandma and there is no family fights today.

Sangie - Great to hear that Elena is getting better on her anti's. Hope this is the end of it for a while for you guys.

Tan - How's your gorgeous little girl? Her photos from the birthday party are just stunning. I wish livvy had enough hair that I could o pig ails. She has a nice thick covering but it is growing really slowly. Is your little man treating you well? Your belly growing nice and big?

D - How's your daughters going? Little M loving having more people to play with?

Kass - How's the teething going? Any new additions?

Hi to everyone else. Hope it's quiet in here because we are all off having a great time and not looking after sickies. Chicken pox is going through the nursery room at Olivia childcare so I'm just waiting for her to get it. In preparation how long is she infectious for and how long do chicken pox generally last?

I'm annoyed. I organised a special weekend for me and DH this weekend. Going out to see the Dark Knight in Gold Glass, made dinner reservations and organised for mum to drive over and take Olivia for the weekend. I found all my special lingerie, made a hair and waxing appt. I was going all out as our relationship hasn't been great the last month or so so I really wanted to make it special and try to reconnect with each other. Well DH came home last night and told me that we have to go to his best mates birthday dinner (Ihr drive away) on saturday night and he arranged to stay at his parents who live there. Sorry my weekend is now dinner with a bunch of drunk guys who I don't know and spending the night at this parents!!!! GGGGGRRRRRR!!!!!!!
Anyway enough of that.
Have a fantastic day everyone. Catch up later.

Dan - How annoying hun - I hope you can find a time to reschedule. How weird about the weather - it is a blue sky warmish sunny day in Melbourne! It's motivated me a bit to tidy up and do a few things and such a nce change from the crappy rain we have been having (necessary I know!) Funny how a few hundred km's make a difference! When are you coming to Melbourne next? I think we are long overdue for a Melbourne May mummies meet up!

Shell - Not slack - sensible hun. izzy was 13mths when she got hers for the same reason. I hope the panadol helps and he isn't too affected by them. :hug: for Friday babe, money sucks and the whole inheritance thing brings out the *****t!est of *****ty sides in people. We have had similar issues with Al's pa. :( Not very nice. Hope it blows over soon and gets sorted out. How are your girls coping with it all? Were they very close to their great-grandad?

Lis - I hope Elena is better hun. Are you giving her probiotics?? I told myself that if Izzy needed AB's again this year I would get some for her - apparantly they are great for them if they are on AB's alot.

D - How are your adopted kids going! How funny that M flirts! Izzy was showing off big time with her nana the other day because MIL had been in Canada for 6 weeks and hadn't seen her! It was hilarious! We need to catch up soon hun!

Kass - How are the teething issues going? Hope Annabelle is better! Hope your anniversary went well too!

Lulu - How are you going hun!?? Hope your gorgeous girls are treating you well and you are getting some well-earned rest.

Can't go back much further but huge :hello: to everyone that I have missed!

Well we are doing ok - Izzy seems to be better, we had fever, lethargy and vomitting on Friday night but all seems ok. Her 4th molar is sticking out a bit so I wonder if it would be that??? Could a fever cause vomitting do you think?? Anyway other than a weird husky voice on and off which has me worried as well she seems to be A-ok! I had an awful day yesterday (another whole thread!) mainly because I feel huge and people keep telling me that I am, and also got my booking form for my c/s. I feel like tearing it up -arrrgghhh. I tell you I will be a walking natural induction advertisement at 40 + weeks! Acupuncture, RLT, EPO, DTD, curries, walking - you name it.

I am back at work - counting down - 6 weeks til I leave on mat leave again - :hooray: Now that is exciting.

Ok I'm off to do some more housework before my GF comes over at 1... have a wonderful day ladies! :)

ETA: Ok Melbourne ladies - hands up who wants to meet up for a coffee and catch up!!!!!!! I'm thinking a play centre somewhere so the kids can play and we can drink coffee and gossip!

Quick one here! Ill come back later and do personals ;)

Tan Im meeting up with some young mummies on the 22nd of July............so thats next Tuesday. Annabelle and I are taking the train up. I could drive but I have wanted to take Annabelle on the train for ages, so Im using that as my opputunity ;)

So anyday but that day and we'de love to come!

hey guys, quick one here

shell: so sorry about your sad news :(

dan: sorry men are such morons! :(

mason is sick again with tonsilitis and an ear infection. I have bad sinus and the worst migraine ever. I am not coping. this is bloody bull$hit.

also, add to the cake, that i am not allowed to take clomid anymore cos it is what is giving me these migraines...so i probably wont be able to have any more kids :(

Awwww.........D thats terrible news! Is there any other road you can take? Will you keep trying without Clomid?

Oh no D........can you change your dose of clomid. I'm sure there would other alternatives hun. Hope you and M are feeling better soon.

Tan my hand is up and waving for a meet up!

Dan men are hopeless aren't they? Hope you can re schedule that fab weekend you had planned.

Well our computer decided to shiat itself this week so I am on DHs laptop. I might be MIA a bit as I don't get to use it too often. We are having a bad run too, my job (and a few others) has been made redundant and I got my four weeks notice. I'm so annoyed......the money was great and I loved working there. Anyway my boss is talking to some people she knows in another department and hopefully they will have a part time or casual position for me.

Better go, my house is in desperate need of a clean. Be back when I can!

D - :hug: that really sucks hun.

Shell - hope everything went ok today - thinking of you hun. :hug:

Back later for more personals - sorry for being slack - am sooooo tired. Izzy has been getting up at 3 or 4 every day and taking a looong tie to settle and even when she does settle, I can't sleep because my belly is getting bigger and this lil' fella wakes up when I do at night. :)

Hi everyone!!!

Long time no see - just wanted to quickly jump in and say a quick hello to everyone so that you know I haven't died and fallen off the face of the earth. I am literally working from the moment I wake (7ish) to the moment I go to bed (midnight/1am) and my body is not coping which caused me to get very sick these last few weeks but thankfully I'm getting through it.

Poor Mia also got sick from me, and then DH, so the whole household has been delightfully snotty and gross. Woke up again this morning with a sore throat but I'm praying it's just because I was overtired and snored very loudly last night, and not another roud of sickness!

Mia is doing really well - though teething horribly at the moment, getting 4 at once. Her mood swings are terrible (god help me when she's a teenager) and she's starting tantrums now which is... fun. She's cruising around the furniture, and her favourite game is stacking plastic cups inside one another... whatever takes your fancy Mia!

Anyway, just wanted to quickly pop my head in and say hello - miss everyone dearly and just wish I had enough time to come in and chat more often!!

Hugs to all
xx

Hi everyone. I've been a bit MIA for a while too.

Kristen - great to hear from you but sorry you've all been unwell. You need to slow down a bit and take care of yourself - easier said than done I know. Great to hear that Mia is thriving.

Shell - very belated but I'm so sorry for your loss. Wishing you lots of luck with dealing with the relatives. I know from recent experience with my Gran passing that its an absolute nightmare and makes an awful situation so much worse.

Lis - sorry about your work situation. I hope something turns up soon for you that is just as good.

Danni - sorry about your situation too.

Tan - hope things are going well in your household and Izzy is feeling better.

Dan - what can I say? Bloody stupid men. I hope your weekend hasn't turned out as badly as you were expecting.

Hi to Kass, Ash and anyone else I've missed - sorry, but am rushing to at least post something.

Things have been pretty dark over here over the last couple of weeks. I seriously cracked at DH yesterday about his lack of help around the house. Its all been feeling like its coming down on top of me so after losing it with my Mum she has told me that she'll come over a couple of days a week to help with the girls. Gotta love your mum don't you. Its not even that she will do all that much, but the simple knowledge that she will be here and I won't be alone to cope makes me feel so much better. Although I've been looking for cliffs to drive off the girls have actually been pretty good. Elena has had a few nights where she's got through to 6am or later without waking for a feed and Izzy is getting more gorgeous with her every day. She will sit next to her and stroke her hair really softly, or play with her hands. The only problem is that she is starting to want to pick her up - bit difficult seeing as Elena is half Izzy's weight, not to mention that Iz has no idea that she's not a dolly that can't be flung around and bounced off the coffee table! Gorgeous all the same.

I hope everyone is doing well and I'll try to get back soon.

Hi lovely ladies and babies!

Shell I hope that everything went as well as it possibly could last week and that the family situation is not too bad :hug:

Kristen lovely to see you pop in hun! Hope you guys are all feeling better. Like Lulu said please take care of yourself and eat your vegies ok lol!

Lulu yay for your mum helping out, I hope that means you get a bit of a break. Sounds like Izzy loves her little sister, that is so cute! I suppose she is too little to understand that Elena is breakable though!

Tan hope you have been getting some more sleep. You must be finishing work soon, how exciting!

Hiya to Kass, Danni, Dan, Ash and anyone that I have forgotten.

Having a quiet day today and should be working but I really don't have the motivation. Ellie has been waking up at nights 3 or 4 times for no obvious reason and its driving me a bit nuts. Please cross all fingers and toes that this is just a phase that will pass very very quickly!

Lis - don't know what's going on but Izzy is doing the same thing as Elena. Last night she woke screaming 3 times. I keep saying its a tooth but its the slowest growing tooth in history if it is! Hopefully both our girls will be back to normal very soon.

Hi everyone!

Just a very quick selfish post from me, I need to do something about my house. Have let everything go the last week, and it is terrible.

The funeral went as well as can be expected i spose. Only one of my Mum's brothers caused a fuss, but didn't come to the wake so that was good. I am glad it is all over with now, as it was a stressful week. Mum is coping extremely well, and is stonger than I would be in the same situation.

Hope everyone is well, wiill pop back later when cyclone Angus is asleep!

*hugs* xxx

Hey ladies!!!

Tan- worked out a meet yet? Hows that baby boy name coming along?

Shell- Great to hear all went as well as possible for your granddad :) Hope no other issues arise.

Sangie and Lulu- Annabelle was doing the same thing and I went to the doctor yesterday and it turns out she has an ear infection! So just something to think about :)

Kristen- Good to hear from you. Sorry about you guys being sick. Not easy having a hole house hold sick and looking after everybody while being sick yourself. Hope everyone is well now and hope to hear from you more often :) Dont work to hard!

Ok ladies I'll be back later take care xxx

hey guys..... I finally hit absolute rock bottom last week and struggled to get up. I literally laid on the floor for hours until Dh got home.

I am now up and ready for new things. I have booked Mason into child care for 3 days a week which is the most I can until I find a job.

So yes, I am looking for a job. Dh has finally realised about my PND and that it really IS a big problem, and that he really DOES need to help me right now.

So he has been a great help over the last few days picking up all the pieces and helping me to organise some more help for myself, and more help with Mason.

I'm scared, nervous but so excited at the prospect of finding myself again, and being able to be ME as well as a MUM. Does that make sense?

I have also designated one night every week where I go out with a friend of mine and it has been such a god send having the distraction.

I hope everyone is doing well. M is STILL NOT WALKING! I dont understand.... He has lots more teeth now but i cant count them... I dont know if its the same tooth or not popping out? :dunno:

I look forward to feeling more positive and cheery, and being able to contribute more on our threads xxx

D- So glad you are having some time out hun. As much as I hate work at times, I do enjoy the non-baby conversation I get to have.... A night out once a week sounds divine too hun - enjoy.

Lulu and Lis - I hear ya. My girl who used to go from 7-8 with a quick bottle at 6, or would resettle with a little cuddle is a screaming unsettled monster at night... Last night I had to hold her and rock her for a bit to settle her, easy to do with an almost 7 mth preggy belly and then sit and hold her hand for 30 mins until she fell asleep. Fine on a day like today when I'm not working but I don't cope too well when I do have to work.

Kristen - awesome to hear from you hun! Glad to hear your business is doing so well you talented woman! Weddings too now I hear on the grapevine! :) Make sure you take some time out and don't burn out hun - even if it is half an hour a day to chill with a coffee and gossip mag!

Kass - Haven't worked out the meet so I might just wait for the next Melbourne one anyway, sounds like they will be pretty regular! No names = still stuck on the same few that neither of us love! Will get there eventually! How is your little poppet going!?

Shell- Glad to hear the funeral went ok hun, well with minor issues. :hug: I hope you were able to catch up on all your housework babe.

Dan - How are you going hun!??? Were you able to reschedule your date night with your man??

:hello: to all I have missed - my brain is frazzled today after being up with Izzy in the night and then having her up since 6.. I know I should be happy she sleeps as late as she does most days because I know lots of bubs get up at 6 every day but Im not used to it! :rofl: I wake HER up on days I work after 8 most days just before I have to leave. Ah well.
Our little man is growing nicely - so nicely people keep telling me how ginormous I am, forgot how annoying that is when you are pg. I was big with Izzy too so I tell most of them to stick it. One of the students even said to me yesterday, "my mum was due last Wednesday and you are bigger than her" Which is true - I've seen her mum around school but thanks very much!

Anyway I am getting lots of kicks and am very excited about meeting this little guy, although I am starting to REALLY freak out about how I will cope with littlies that need so much of their mummy. :( Lulu - I so understand how you were feeling hun, Im just starting to feel it now and Im worried about my little poppet and how she will go with less of my attention. Never thought I would say it but thank god for TV. :redface: There are a few things she loves that I can put on and I know I will get something done...

Anyway - I did all my housework on Monday so I think I am going to have a very lazy day on here and playing with my girl today. My sister is going to come over at some stage too. Have a great day ladies and bubs! :)

D - good luck with the job hunting, I hope the perfect job comes up for you soon. I am so happy for you that you are taking some positive steps to improve how you're feeling :hug:. Tan is right, Mr M will walk when he feels like it and not a second before, there is no telling these bubs what to do!

Tan and Lulu - so it seems our girls are all into this night waking thing together! Elena woke up twice last night which was better than the 5 times the night before! Yes I am blaming teeth too (cos I always do lol!) but who knows. She is still on Abs for her ear infections so it can't be her ears, far out I will be annoyed if it is though.

Tan - enjoy your lazy day! :dance:

Kass - I hope Annabelle is feeling better after her ear infections, they are so awful.

Shell - Good to hear that the funeral went as well as expected and that your mum is doing ok.

Dan - how are you hun? Hope you and Livvy are over the nasty bugs.

Ash - I know you are really busy but just posting a 'hi' in case you pop in!

I'm at work today and I seriously can't be bothered. It is so hard to be motivated when I know I won't be here in a few weeks. I'm a bit sad as I really enjoy it here and the money is quite good and will be missed. Oh well that is enough whinging from me, better get back to it I suppose. Hope you all have a great day!

Hi everyone. I'm around but not at the moment. That make sense?? I'll be back soon to catch up on personal. Dave and I are in a real bad way at the moment and that is my priority, as well as Livvy of course.
Be back soon. Please look after yourselves one and all.

Massive :hug: Dan..........

:hug: Dan. Know where you're coming from and completely understand where your mind and energy need to be ;)

Just wanted to give you a :hug: Dan :hug:

Hope you and Dave can work through your probs chicky, good luck :hug:

So sorry you're having troubles Dan. Big :hug: for you. Hope it all works itself out very quickly.

I'm so sorry to hear that Dan :hug:
Please take care of yourself, I hope you guys can sort it all out soon.

Hey, how is everyone! Can't believe the weekend is here again!! Have so much to do, heaps of cleaning and washing!! It never ends!! Started at a gym today, so I am aiming to lose at least 15kgs. I can't believe how much wt I have put on, and since I will prob not have anymore kiddlets, time to shape up!!!!

Hope everyone has a great weekend!!!

Morning ladies. I'm not going to say good morning because I just can't bring myself to type it when I'm up at this unforsaken hour with a screaming toddler, LOL!! I thought I'd make the most of it and catch up with you gorgeous ladies.

Shell - How are you going with weaning Angus? Are you still doing it or going to wait a while and try again? Good luck with your weight loss. You can do it gorgeous :cheer:.

D - Like the girls have said M will walk when he is ready and there is nothing you can do to change it. Stubborn little ones our toddlers are aren't they. How is your night out/to yourself each week going? Job hunting? Fingers crossed things are starting to look up for you. MSN if I can do anything for you or you need to chat.

Sangie - Fingers crossed that Elena has starting sleeping through the night for you again and that her ear infection is finally cleared up. The poor little things just look so miserable when they feel like crap. Breaks my heart. Any new teeth for the disrupted sleep? Sucks about your job gorgeous, really sorry. Will you start the horrid job hunting or wait a while and be a SAHM?

Tan - I so hear you on not being able to cope with the disrupted sleep and early mornings. Isn't it funny how easily we forget what it was like having a newborn and looking back it shows how well we actually did. We should be so proud of ourselves. Is your sleeping Iz back yet? Great to hear that little man is growing well and giving mummy lots of reassuring kicks. I absolutely love your ticker photo. Your growing belly is stunning.

Kass - Hope that your gorgeous little one is also back to sleeping. Annabelle treating you well and running around everywhere?

Lulu - I'm so sorry that this is so late but sending you heaps of :hug::hug::hug: and praying that your dark few weeks are behind you and you are getting a block hours of sleep. How's it going having your mum come around a few days a week to help out? Your DH helping out a bit more too? I just want to say that I think you are doing an absolutely amazing job and sometimes I sit here and think how amazing you are doing it when I struggle with just Livvy. You go super mum. You and Shell are true super mums.

Kirsten - Fantastic to hear from you and great to hear that Mia is going so well. Your photo in your ticker is gorgeous. You are so talented. Don't forget to take some time out for you. Enjoy your thriving business darling.

I know that I have missed some of you gorgeous ladies so sending you a huge HI!!!!

Thank you all SO MUCH for you best wishes and cyber hugs. It honestly meant the world to me. I really don't know what I would do without the support from all you amazing ladies here on BB. Dave and I are working through our issues. I didn't realise that I was also contributing to them, not just Dave. Silly blinkers, LOL!!! We are on the mend thankfully but have a far way to go yet. We have kinda put TTC on hold as I honestly don't think that I could fall pg with all this going on and it is definitely one less major stressor we need at the moment. At least TTC wasn't even an issue at the moment which is a good thing. Might get back on the wagon next month but we'll just take it day at a time.
Our little princess is doing her best to keep us sleep deprieved and tired. She was absolutely sailing along and was absolutely amazing until early this week when she was running a temp around 39's, lethargic and sleeping and waking at weird hours resulting in her sleeping soundly during the day and screaming all night of course. It's tough love mummy and daddy now she is better to get back our sleeping angel. She is running everywhere, chatting sentences in her own gorgeous little language and even starting to look for answers. I honestly never thought that she could spread toys as far and wide as she does. Mum and dad couldn't work out why their VCR was suddenly chewing tapes. That's right Livvy left them a surprise. She stuffed it full of toast. It's so damn cute!!! Her eating is also improving with her sitting down to whatever we are eating and is continuous eating throughout the day. Fruit seems no problem at all but vegies still remain the most disguisting thing she has ever had in her mouth and refuses to eat them. Guess we'll just keep offering and hopefully she will start to eat them. I might look into a book that was suggested to me - Deceptivitily delicious. Apparantely a cookbook full of receipes of vegies hidden in everything. Like spinach brownies where you can't taste the spinach. Anyone heard of it??
Alright seems that Livvy has settled down and I can finally get to bed, YAY!!!! Sleep is so not overrated, LOL!!!
Chat soon gorgeous ladies. Enjoy our toddlers!!!

that book is great Dan. There is a thread on BB about it.I think Christy may have started it?

Well Mason finally started walking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we cant believe it. we thought it would never ever happen. I was so lucky to get his first steps all on video.

Im so glad things are looking up for you Dan. Unfortunately though, we have slipped into your hole. I dont know whats going on at the moment... Im waiting for dh to get home from work and if he doesnt talk to me, then i know its very serious this time.

Hope everyone else is well. Have to go and meet masons new family day car provider on monday whom is a MAN! that should be interesting

Hello there lovelies!

Long time no chat!!!! Sorry I've been MIA, with working 6 days and a very active 15 month old I'm finding it hard to sleep let alone jump online!

Seems like everyone is having a not so pleasant time - I apologise, I am too so I definitely feel the pain! Blake is a joy but he just can't get well - he is always on antibiotics and has recently been diagnosed with asthma, so another thing to add to his list!! His ear is leaking again, he has a terrible case of gastro and his chest infection won't go away - more xrays to be had I think!

Luckily, he is only waking once to twice a night which is him sleeping perfectly, so I can't complain. He is growing an evolving everyday, and my new favourite thing is him showing me where his toes, tummy and willy are and always saying UH OHHHH when he falls down or gets in trouble lol He had his first haircut on Tuesday and looks so grown up - he had almost shoulder length curls and was looking a bit girly so I went and got him a gorgeous little mohawk LOL

D-You know I'm here, I'm on credit now so I can't call you but you have my new number, use it....good luck with the FDC meeting, how interesting that it's a man!

I'm at work so I best be off, 3 WEEKS TILL MY 21ST PARTY hurrah I'm so excited, it should be a great night.

Take care,

Ashlee.

:hello: everyone!

:hug: to you both Ash and D - sorry to hear you aren't having a nice time at the moment. :( Hope things pick up soon.

Dan - glad you guys are sorting things out..... Wise old owl that I am, I tell people all the time the thing that keeps marriages together (most of the time!) is communication and misunderstandings are what tear them apart alot too... DH have been through hell and back in the last 11 years and the only thing that has kept us going is communicating with each other constantly even when it hurts. Rambling now - sorry!
Izzy is a bit better now but far out they know how to test us don't they - especially when they will sleep in on the days we have to work and waking early on our days off....:) Deceptively Delicious looks great - it was written by Jerry Seinfelds wife. Ive seen it at Myer and there are a few threads on here about the recipes too. :)

Shell - you are one hot mama! I know the need to feel good though, I am determined to lose the weight I put on before I got pg with Izzy once this little man pops out. Im hoping the weight that I have put on with him will fall off as quick as it did with Izzy.

Lis - hope work wasn't too bad the other day for you.

Lulu and Kass :hello: to everyone else I have missed!!

Well we are doing ok. I'm getting bigger and bigger! 30 weeks today! Whoo hoo! Can't wait to meet our little man!

Izzy has been unsettled since her fever and lethargy episode a few weeks ago, not sleeping at night, grizzly during the day, nappy rash (really bad) teething, off food you name it. I finally got mum to take her back to her family GP for a massive check up of everything and turns out that she has a few eye teeth coming through, that has caused the bad nappy rash, plus a slight respiratory infection that isn't bad enough for AB's though. Far out. At least she seems a bit better the last few nights and has been sleeping better than she was during the week.

We have been still giving her a bottle when she wakes at 6ish and she would go back to sleep up until around 8ish or so but in the last few days she has been having her bottle then not going back to sleep so I am going to cut it out altogether and just give her one at night. Last night she went down at 7 and woke at 730 so that's good. We are going onto cows milk finally! She was on formula still because she is such a tiny titch but I think it's time now.
We are also dealing with major toddler tantrums at the moment. I have bought Pinky's book Toddler Tactics which is great at explaning the developmental stages etc and why she does things. Doesn't make it that much easier though when I have to take somethig from her and she comes up and hits me. She KNOWS that she is doing something wrong and we have tried ignoring, saying NO firmly, distracting etc but she still does it and knows that its wrong. AH the joys!

Right I'm off to organise something for dinner - made chocolate choc chip cookies today mmmm soooo good!

We have amicably split up. Definitely not persuing things anymore. Im ok about it. Just scared about change but I will be fine.

Awww D :(- :hug: Here if you need me hun.

Oh no D :hug: I'm so sorry to hear that, take care of yourself and remember that we are all here for you ok?

Ash great to hear from you, sounds like you are super busy.

Dan - no we haven't had any more teeth come through so have no idea why she is waking at night. Anyway she has been great the last few nights so fingers crossed it continues. Yes I will probably look for a new job soon, have been emailing some of my ex work mates to see if they know of anything. Glad to hear that you guys are sorting it all out.

Tan - OMG 30 weeks!!!! Wow that is so exciting! We haven't experienced any real toddler tantrums yet. Sometimes El will cry if I tell her 'no' but it is usually only for a few seconds and then she gets over it. Your Izzy sounds very cheeky!

Shell - I think you need a maid lol! Yay for joining the gym!

Lulu how are things going? I hope that your DH has started helping out more, if he hasn't tell him I will personally come over and kick his butt lol! I know you live very far from me but hey, if that's what needs to be done then I'm your woman!

Kass how are you and little miss Annabelle doing?

Sorry if I have missed anyone???

Busy busy weekend here. Visited 5 houses today and we really like one so hopefully we will go and see it again and possibly put in an offer! My brother is getting married tomorrow so will have a really busy day and hopefully Ellie will be on her best behaviour.

Better go and get stuff ready for tomorrow.........take care all.

Just a quick one. D- Im so sorry to hear that is there really no feelings left?

Oh D I'm so very sorry to hear about your split :hug:. We are here for when you need us.

Just thought I should do a little post on Annabelle as I haven't posted about her, really for a while anyway :rolleyes:

She is walking and talking NON stop! Which I love she is most talkative in the morning. She'll have a convo over breaky with me and then just keep on talking :cryinglaugh:

She has been talking on phones since about 8months but lately I've had to watch how I act around her as she is now just before hanging up to the 'noone' on the other head, having an argument then slamming the phone down :doh: I must of had an argument one day and she soaked it all in :rolleyes:

Her ear infection must be clearing up as she is sleeping much better and not playing with her ear anymore. Ummmm.......what else............she has six teeth, 3 up top and 3 bottom.

She is doing HEAPS more but I would be here for ever, so thanks for reading just thought I should do an update ;)

Be back later and I'll do personals :hug:

:hug:Oh D :hug: I am so sorry matey. Will be a tough time for you, remember to come and talk/vent away if you need to. Good Luck xx

Well after another night of Olivia screaming from 12 to 4.30 last night I think we have our answer. Chicken Pox and cutting molars and eye teeth :wall:. No wonder the poor little princess has been so miserable and not sleeping.
Well I am off to do some housework and organise some lunch.

Dan- Thats horrible Im praying Annabelle doesn't get the pox before her shot which is soon :rolleyes:

What can you do to help her?

Surprise everyone :cheer: - I have been MIA for months. Some of you might remember me, others not - hello anyway!

Hope to be around a little more now, its amazing how much our little ones have grown in the past year - time certainly does fly.

Anyway am trying to read and catch up on as many posts as possible.

Big hugs to Ash and Lis :hug:

XXX

Dan - :hug: Poor little poppet - at least you know what it is IYKWIM... I felt better the other day when we found out Izzy had the respiratory infection, because I knew something was wrong, but wanted to know what it was. Fingers crossed she doesn't get too grizzly and recovers fast.

Beck - Long time no post! How is Alexis going! Our babies sure have grown haven't they! Not babies anymore! Glad to hear from you!

:hello: all - hope you are all well! I have a curriculum day at school tomorrow - which normally would be great - no kids, but I am running the whole day so am cr@pping myself! Staff have a tendency to really critique these days and bang on about how they are a waste of time etc... so I hope it goes ok!

Have a good one and will let you all know how I go! Hope bubs are behaving and you are all keeping warm if you are experiencing this freezing weather! :)

Quickie here...........

Dan - hope Livvy is ok, eeeekkkkk chicken pox.

Beck - hey hun lovely to hear from you, would love to hear how Alexis is doing!

Tan - hope yesterday wasn't too bad.

I'm at work so just sneaking on for a second ;)
We are well, Ellie was so well behaved at her uncle's wedding on Sunday and looked adorable in her pink dress and shiny black shoes ( I think she got more compliments than the bride lol!).

Hope you all have a fab day! :D
