Tan yay for the kitchen renos! How exciting! Sounds like James is in a great routine hun! So has his wind and gulping settled down?
Kass welcome back! I just saw your sig, only a couple of months till you TTC? How exciting!!!!! Wouldn't it be great if we were belly buddies!
Dan I saw your other thread and I hope you are feeling a bit better hun, take care xx
Lulu OMG at Ellie's cruising, that is insane lol! I bet she looks adorable cruising lol! Did Izzy cruise this early too or do you think miss ellie is just trying to catch up to her big sister? Yep my Elena is loving all the christmas decorations too. I can't wait to take her out at night to see all the houses lit up, she is going to love it!
Shell how are you guys going? You all feeling better now?
Well I'm at work today so I probably should actually do some work lol!
Taking Ellie for her 18 month assessment tomorrow in between organising tradesmen. I swear I'm going to lose the plot if this house isn't finished soon! Have a lovely day all! xx
Sangie- Yep Jan 09 we have made it! Im in two minds. One about my age and what family think but then in the other its what is best for our lil family and thats all that matters
I really hope we're belly buddies! Are you TTC atm?
Tan- Things seem to be settling into there place! How is your lil princess? is she good at her new role, big sister? Glad to hear James is sleeping well for you
Lulu- Sounds like your house is full of excitment! Two lil princess' learning so much! Izzy getting out of the gate through the gap!!! They can do anything they put there minds to, hey! Scary! We're still waiting for Annabelle's eye teeth not a fun time, teething, in this house.
Dan- Hope things look up for you soon!
Dolphin- not sure if we have met? So hello!
Now I no I have missed lots of you lovly ladies but its kind of impossible to catch up. Ill just make sure I dont miss out on anymore Deal???
Im sooooooooooo excited to TTC, actually the pg part, not so much the TTC
And getting to share it with you ladies as my last pg wasn't shared with anyone, very supportive, other then family IYKWIM
Question though: Annabelle and I are best of friends and have a great relationship, will I loose that when the new baby is hear? I know slly question but if im going to ask it, thought you would all understand me
Sometimes when she plays up, I think it would be better for her to have a lil buddy. I dont want them anymore then 2 1/2 yrs apart, so I better fall pg as soon as I try hahaha
Hi gorgeous mummies,
Tan - I can't believe your little man slept for 9 hours last night . What a good little man. Is Izzy in her big girl bed yet? How's the new kitchen looking? Happy with the end results?
Lulu - OMG your girls are simply amazing. You have a two very clever clever little girls there. I just can't believe El is furniture cruising already. How's the toilet training going? Have you started?
Sangie - You are a better woman than me. I now refuse to deal with tradesman so Dave has to do that. I blow my top too quickly and get us nowhere fast. Can't wait to hear how Ellie goes with her check up tomorrow.
Kass - Welcome back darl. Glad the move went well and hope you are all settling in nicely. How exciting TTC in just a few months. Fingers crossed it happens quikly for you. I have the same worries that you do. I also worry that I won't love this one as much as livvy but Tan and Lulu reassure me all the time with their posts about their gorgeous little ones and you can just tell how much they love them both.
Hi to all the other mums and toddlers. Hope you are having a great time. Is anyone starting to get excitng about christmas and doing the 'santa' shopping. I just can't decide what to buy Olivia. What is everyone else getting their little ones?
Well we had Livvy at the MCHN today and she is doing everything she should be so that is fantastic. She now weights 10.42 kg. I didn't find out until today that they are supposed to triple there birth weight by 12 months and it has taken livvy 18 months but hey we're there now. She is 78cm tall so she is just a little poppet.
Olivia got up in a bad mood this morning and it has continued all day. She has been fowl. We can't look at her, talk to her or do anything with her. She even cracks it when we do nothing. So it is very much a right off day. Hopefully she gets out of the right side of the bed tomorrow.
Sorry I haven't been around. Been in A&E getting IV fluids to help with my m/s. I have turned a corner and feel a million bucks now.
Well my little princess (ha ha ha) is once again screaming so I better go and attend to her. Thank god this day is nearly over.
Dan I'm so glad you are feeling better. Fingers crossed that you have seen the last of the m/s. Have you told your friends/family yet? YAY for a great MCHN appointment. I hope Livvy is in a better mood today - is she still teething?
Tan how is your kitchen looking?!
Kass I saw your other thread. Congrats on TTC now, fingers crossed it happens very quickly for you!
Well our MCHN appointment was supposed to be today but we got a phone call this morning saying that all appointments today are cancelled because the nurse is sick and a replacement cannot be found. Then I get told that I can't get another appointment until Dec 11! Crazy hey?
Gonna go tidy up before my little tornado wakes up!
Hello to anyone I missed and catch up with you all soon! xxxxx
Dan - So glad you are feeling better babe! We have benchtops in and DH s tiling todya. The new doors will be arriving in the next week. Izzy is in her big bed, she loves it but if she is a bit awake we still find she will occasionally get out of bed and play instead of sleep - just means we have to go in to resettle a bit but overall its working really well! Jameswent back to his 6 hour sleep but even that is great so Im not complaining! He fed 2 hourly afer the 9 hour sleep so Id rather 3 hours! I had Izzy's 18mth check next month (busy too) and I think shw ill only just be around 11 kgs so don't stress lovely!
Lis -I will post pics soon of the kitchen!! DH used all our dowloads so I ahve to wait to the 1st to do anything! Even just normal browsing costs us and Im fuming. Im at mums today getting my BB and intenet hit but wont have it at home. So frustrating! My MCHN is on the 19 Dec - so Izzy will be 19mths old! Ugh I need to go and get her 18mth shots - not looking forward to that but want to do it now while I can and then I have James' shots in a month too.
Kass - SO exciting TTC! I know what you mean aobut hte new baby because I was wondering in the last few weeks of my pregnancy how on earth I would love anohter person like I do Izzy and its so true what they say about your love not dividing but multiplying for each one. I gve Izzy as much time as I can and Iforgot how much newbrns sleep and other than booby and cuddes they do'n't need as much as toddlers so there is plenty of time for everyone to adjust!
Tan - your new kitchen sounds like its coming along beautifully. Very exciting. When did you put Izzy in the big bed first?? How did you go initially? I'm wondering if I should maybe take the side off Izzy's cot so that it turns into a junior bed. I'm just worried she'll be getting up and wandering every time she wakes up! How is James going? Sounds like he is starting to sleep really well for you. Much easier to deal with average day sleeps if you're getting a really good sleep at night. Elena has only just started sleeping decently during the day - I now get at least 2 hours out of her in the morning which is heaven - the girls actually sleep at the same time so I get time to do all the housework while they're both asleep which is sooooo much easier than trying to do it when one or both are up.
Dan - glad you're feeling better sweetie. Don't hesitate next time if you are suffering. MS is such a horrible thing. Sounds like Livvy is testing her mummy well and truly at the moment. Try not to stress about it - she may be picking up a bit of a hormone change with you and that little bean you're growing. I know Izzy certainly went through some weird periods. And definitely don't stress about her weight. FWIW Iz is 80cm tall, so a bit taller than Livvy, but almost half a kg lighter than Livvy. My MCHN says she's absolutely fine - she's consistently been on the same line of weight, is full of energy, bright and alert. We both just have lovely little fairy girls, that's all. Don't know about you though but it makes clothes a nightmare. I just bought Izzy a couple of size 1 skirts and they literally fall off her.
Kass - good luck with the TTC. I hope your journey is a very, very short one!
Lis - how are the renos going? Nightmare time but hopefully it will pass quickly for you. Do you think there's a chance you'll be in your new house for Christmas? Crossing my fingers for you that you will.
TT is going slowly with Izzy. She happily sits on her potty or the toilet seat but nothing happens yet. She knows when she is about to wee and if she doesn't have her nappy on she gets really distressed but no matter how many times I take her to the potty or the toilet she won't do anything. She's had only a couple of accidents and is really upset when she does. I'm trying not to pressure her though so most of the time when she obviously needs to do something if she doesn't do anything on the potty within a couple of times of taking her to it I'm just putting her nappy back on. Do you think I'm doing the right thing? Damn this is hard when you don't have the operator's manual!
Quickie here too!
Shell- You look HOT mama!
Dan - Try giving Liv a "play" toothbrush, let her play while you do yours, give her one in the bath and if worse comes to worse - hold her down!
Kass - Sending you loads of TTC vibes love.
Im off to Donny today with a gf for lunch and dress shopping for her! Dad is looking after Izzy and DH is working on the kitchen - doors arrived, today pics coming soon!!! Chat soon!
Glad im back!
