I am either way sleep deprived or just nuts but I even cracked myself up with that, I have a bunch of emails I send to friends with Bethany thoughts...I should share them more often!!

Ok setting MIL's on fire is naughty and sets a bad example....however secretly slipping something in her drink....Mia can't see that hence no bad example!!!

LOL You gals know how to put a smile on a persons face

I wasn't going to sit and read and catch up but couldn't help it!!

today I planned our Christmas Menu - didn't think it was going to be that hard but took over 3 hours of recipe searching!! Think I'm going cross eyed LOL

Question - how do you put photo's in the BB gallery?? total newbie to the site LOL I've already had a slap on the wrist because my sig wasn't centered - I didn't know that was a rule augh!!! I don't like being naughty!!!

Umm poo question - Dom's are just like runny curried egg - right down to the flecks of solid white. It still smells of sweet breastfed baby poo - his farts don't though - I think he gets all the nasty smells out so the poo is sweet. Hmm sweet and poo in the same sentence just doesn't seem proper LOL

CHN visit tomorrow for bare weigh and measure. Could be a bit scary as I'm certain he's had another growth spurt!!

Today Dom sat unaided for about 30 seconds *sob* he's growing up too quickly!! The last few day's he's been grabbing my fingers and pulling himself into a sitting position but today he let go and stayed upright!!! He was sooo pleased with himself too LOL

Well I need to go express so I don't flood the bed (Dom's dropped his dream feed most nights - another one with only 4-5 feeds a day) and get some sleep so I can organise the tribe and be out the door by 10.15am in the morning - what silly person organised a morning appointment during school holidays *sigh* One day I'll learn LOL

ho hum... wide awake!! Which is plain daft considering X will wake for a feed anywhere between 4.30am and 7am... and we have a MHCN appointment at 8.30am. All of which is combining to make me even more awake!

Might go chop mushrooms for dinner tomorrow...

**1MOREPLZ** · December 19th, 2008, 07:48 AM

we are off to see our paed this afternoon...
Jack drank 60mls last night prior to bed, he did drink 120mls this morning...BUT woke this morning with a dry nappy

i just have a gut feeling SOMETHING is wrong....

**amy_o** · December 19th, 2008, 08:33 AM

hope everything is ok katones. thinking of ya

**belfie** · December 19th, 2008, 08:59 AM

Katones, I hope everything is ok, and glad to hear you're getting him checked out

hope all goes well.

We had our MHCN check today. Mr Chubba Bubba is sitting happy (and podgy) at 6.5kg

Oh and I chopped my mushrooms AND capsicum last night - how very productive haha.

**1MOREPLZ** · December 19th, 2008, 09:09 AM

I had Jack weighed yesturday at our Gp..he was exactly 6kgs

He has had a wet nappy so far this morning.. and only drank 70 mls

**SamiH** · December 19th, 2008, 09:14 AM

belfie -

- I weighed Zander quickly the other day and he was around 5.7kg - mind you I looked back on the kids books and Riley was 7kg exactly at 3 months and Giselle was 4.585kg - so Zander is just happily in the middle this time around.

katones - hope all is ok - let us know when you can

Zander slept from 8pm - 6.10am this morning - I feel quite refreshed

Hope he keeps that up! My boobs were quite sore though

No wonder my daughter gets everything she wants even when she is naughty. Who could resist her??

**amy_o** · December 19th, 2008, 09:19 AM

Sami~~ What a chamer, she knows how to work those looks!!!

Katones~~ Bethany has been snacking on her bottom this morning too, but she is still soaking those nappies, you are doing the right thing to check it out if you are worried, Let us know more when you can I am sure we all have our fingers crossed and are sending happy thoughts to you.

Belfie~~ When are you heading over to do some food prep for me? I am sure I can find something for you to do!! LOL Tell Xander he is a boofer!! (but a very cute boofer at that!!)

**belfie** · December 19th, 2008, 09:35 AM

LOL Tell Xander he is a boofer!! (but a very cute boofer at that!!)

DH would like to tell you all that X just has big bones! Big tummy bones actually...

(seriously, how big are those cheeks in my sig pic - he's a right chubber... but his initials ARE "XL", so he's just making sure he lives up to 'em!)

**1MOREPLZ** · December 19th, 2008, 09:36 AM

he only had 80mls at his 10am feed 70mls at first then about 20mins later the other 10 mls....
This morning at his 6.30am feed he woke fed (120mls) then went straight back to sleep.
He is sleeping now in his pram propped up on a pillow on his tummy.
I am worried

**AmandaJ** · December 19th, 2008, 09:39 AM

Kat I think you can post photos in the gallery once you have done 50 posts.

Belfie I hope that you and Xander Claus have a great time at your work do and take some pics of Xander Claus for us

Amy you should defineately share Bethany's thoughts more often they crack me up

Sami she is so gorgeous, I know if we had a girl she would also be spoilt rotten and get away with murder, lol.

katones I hope that you find some answers at the ped today, let us know and big

for you as well, your doing a great job.

PP ok on poo, Julian is fully b/f and he has the yellowy/mustardy curds looking poo, and once this week had the yellowy/green poo(was just snacking that hot day). I think it would stay the more liquidy type of poo until they start solids, when it gets a bit firmer as you know, lol.

I went and visited my brother and SIL yesterday, it was great haven't seen them since they visited after Julian was born. We've got DH's work party tomorrow night, so the boys will be getting looked after and will be taking Julian with us, my guess is he will be the life of the party.

Sami Julian has started chatting as well in the last few days, but only to me and other ladies, DH is saying it's not fair, I just think he's a ladies man already.

hugs xoxo

From the mind of Bethany....
About 2amish, Mamma and daddy asleep and Bethany supposedly asleep in her cot
"Hmmm I think I should see what my servants are doing...It has been a whole 4 hours since they went to bed far to much sleep in one go, I must keep up my ragime of sleep deprivation or I will never break their wills." **Unhappy sounds from cot** Mamma gets up and give Bethany dummy...A few moments pass "phh what is this I don't want my dummy couldn't she tell that, I shall spit it out and tell her what I really want." **Louder noise from cot** Mamma heads to kitchen to make bottle "Again with this waiting business, move it woman!! Again how hard are these bottle things to make. Mmmm I should consider new staff..." **Return with bottle get baby out of cot and proceed to give bottle** "On second thoughts I am not to keen on this after all, I think I will doze off again...consider this a drill my slaves......zzzzzz"
Baby back to sleep after 40mls, Mamma awake, daddy slept through.
I tell you it is a good thing she is cute!!
