21 feels a million years ago! I will be 33 this year! Eeeek! It's been nice and warm here today - went for a walk earlier in the morning with Izzy to the park. Her sleep is all out of whack from being sick - normally she is in bed at 7! James is playing under the activity gym of Izzy's that we pulled out - he loves it and has started grabbing at the toys! Clever man! So cute!
Hollye - The first teeth are usually 2 bottom, then 2 top, the the sides, molars and eye teeth but there are exceptions to every rule! How cute that Mia is teething already! Izzy didn't get hers til she was about 5 mths old!
Off to buy some more nappies! DH has given me the green light to go cloth =- whoo hoo!! Have a great night all!
Wow teething already!! Is that really as bad as everyone makes out?
DH & I were discussing the other day when to have the 2nd. We were both close in age to our sisters - 14 months for me, 16 months for him, and loved it so we've decided to just let nature take it course...! So unless BF stops it i could, at least in theory , be pregnant any day now! (I'd be surprise tho). Other reasons for diving in again so quick are that DH is 35 & has always wanted kids, he doesn't want to be "too old" when they're 20 or whatever. Also, we've always planned for him to be the Stay-At-Home-Dad and me to work. If we're gonna have them close-ish its better for them to be really close so I can get the 'baby making' and BF out of the way, rather than go back to work for only ??? months until I'm pregnant again, or him quitting work only for me to fall preggers again and us both be out of work for a few months around bub#2's birth. It kind of hit me pretty hard that this will be my job for at least another year. Not that I don't love being a mummy its just not what i ever saw myself doing full time for any length of time. But actually the ideas growing on me.
Oh Tan, i put some pics up of Liam in his BBHs. You may have seen them already. Honsetly, the more I hear about probs people have with cloth the more i love these. It will be interesting to see how you think they are compared to all the others you're trying.
Oh i know there was heaps of other stuff i wanted to reply to but i've forgotten it all. Sorry everyone. Hope your bubs are treating you well. Liam is just starting to discover his hands properly and is spending ages watching them twist in with each other, and trying to reach things and put them in his mouth. And he kicks constantly - little froggy legs!
Anyway, I'd better go make tea. Take care.
snoop - she doesnt like the heat at all! She has grown out of her rashyness thank god. Now her face is as soft as her bum!!
Yes.. teeth... i can see the bottom 2 just sitting there and she drolling like mad.. pulling at her ears, chewing her fists and her cheeks were all rosy today. She just seems all in all agitated. Whats molars and eye teeth?????
FYI - Curash Nappy rash cream is CRAPPO!! waste of money and time. But.. that benpathen (sp) is fantastic!!!
Mia has her NEXT photo shoot next wednesday! i cant believe we are at the 3rd one already! not long till them next needles either....
ahh i need to chnage that!! its 4 sleep till im 21..!! its on the 9th!
Olivesmummy-I couldn't have gone out without my boy! So good on you! I bet it was nice to have some time just with your DH! I do miss that!
Snoopea-How did the de-cluttering go??
Hollye-Wow! Teething already! Hope Mia's ok!!
Tan- Woohoo for the nappies! Which ones are you going to get?? I've just ordered a couple of different fleece covers, I love them, they are so soft! Much better than PUL, except for when we go out, then a PUL cover is a must.
1stbub-Sounds like you've got it all worked out. We want our bubs to be close together too. I can't wait to be pregnant again, I loved it! (well maybe not the last few weeks) but I have to prepare myself for the birth so it might be a while for us!
Well I have a cold and I think I'm getting conjuntivitis (sp?) what's with that?? DS has it and has eye drops...do you think I could use his eye drops?? Nothing else really to report...he is still sleeping through (I've probably jinxed myself now). We are not doing much today just going to the supermarket soon and that's it! But we finally have some lovely weather so maybe a walk too!
Morning all - i had alot of reading to do just than! miss out on one day and u miss out on heaps! hehehe - so i will apologise now if i forget a personal to someone!
Snoopea and Hippiemummy - the apprasial on the house went well! our house is now on the market! The realestate is comming around today to take some pics to put on the net! so hopefully it shouldnt take to long to sell, and hopefully it wont take us too long to find our dream home - we are looking at a home tonight when DH gets home from work!
Hippie - conjunctivitis is highly contagious! so u must or touched ur eye or something - not sure if u can use same eye drops - just bath it in saline solution from inside out - and use different cotton ball with each wipe!
Hollye - i wish i was 21 again - acutally i dont cause than i wouldnt have B! have u got anything Big planned?
and poor Mia on starting to teeth - i guess we are all going to have to go thru that soon! and yep bottom teeth come thru first - molars are the teeth at the back - and ur eye teeth i think (someone correct me if im wrong) are like ur "pointy teeth" at the front - the sharper ones!
Tan - how is Izzy going? i wish B would happily play under her gym thing like James does! she is starting to get a bit clingy lately - she wont let us out of her sight! cute but can be a little annoying exspecially when u need to go to the toilet or shower! hahaha
1stBub27 - ur ticker looks great and Liam is a real cutie! and imagine if u were preg again! would be exciting yet full on! i have that slight fear atm - cant wait for AF!
HJ - How exciting hun! I need to get this house organised and get it on the market once DH gets back!! Hope it all goes well for you. Izzy is ok now but shes still a little clingy and sooky, not too sure what's up other than being 19 mths!
Hippie - I hope your conjunctivitis clears soon hun. I have on the way - a happy heiny, a hautes, pea pod, 2 x itti d'lish, 2 more GK's , a cushie and a bubblebubs. I think that's it! Plus one of the girls from my other babies born group is sending me a berry plush to try and a hh. I am going with pockets and AIOs for days and will start looking at fitteds with covers for nights soon!
Hollye - the molars are the big teeth at the back and the eye teet are the ones that are third across on each - pointy ones! I found that the normal ones were all fine, the molars were bad and the eye teeth just recently were terrible. Some bubs seem ok with it all though so you never know. When Izzy has had terrible nappy rash I found Sudocream the best - you can lather it on really thick and leave it overnight, otherwise we just use the Aromababy barrier balm - its organic and smells DIVINE!
1stbub- We wanted ours close too - DH and his brother are 2 years and my sister and I are 6 years - we definitely wanted them close- not quite as close as we got but I never got AF back and it just happened! Now that we have them so close I can't imagine it any other way and I love that they will be such great friends as they grow up!
Slack personals -bIg squishy hugs to you all that I've missed!
DH leaves tomorrow - wwaaahhh loads to do today so Im off! Have a great day all!
Tan - for the next 2 weeks. Hope it goes quick for you.
Hollye - Hope its a great b'day. Do you have anything planned. I can't believe it was 38 there the other day. I don't miss that! It was hot here the other week at 31 - but that's largely coz of the humidity. I never liked that dry heat in Sheppy.
BTW, I've been moving Liams legs left to right when changing him like you suggested. Now, whenever I change him his legs go sick! he kicks and stamps them to each side and pushes them down in the middle to push his bum up. It's very cute, he loves it. no rolling yet, but i think I'm gonna have my hands full when he is on the move!!
AJ - good luck with that surprise party. I just hope DH remembers my b'day let alone organise something like that - even with prompting!!
HJ - never thought I'd say this and have it be a nice thing, but hope AF comes back for you soon. I highly doubt I'm preggers just yet or will be for many months. Of course, now we've planned it out we probably won't be able to fall preggers for ages!
Liam's been a bit funny the past couple days and especially today. He's throwing up a lot more than usual and is quiet and 'shmoopy' (clingy) which isn't like him. He's really tired too but doesn't seem to be sleeping well. Apart from that he looks healthy and he doesn't have a temp. I've got a slight sore throat and ears, so maybe he's got a bit of whatever i'm fighting. Don't really want to give him panadol if he doesn't need it, but i might give him a little if it keeps up. He's sleeping well now after only a really small feed.
