Maddi had her ultrasound. She laughed & chatted away tried to play with the ultrasound cords lol
At least she was happy.

Yay for all the bubs who are sleeping well.
For the mums with bubs who aren't sleep well, hope it improves soon.

For the bubs & mums who are sick hope you feel better soon.
Maddi has a head cold & cough, it's really bad late at night/early morning she can't breathe through her nose so she wakes up & wont go back to sleep which is fair enough.

Kim - I like to put a little vanilla essence in the microwave for a few seconds - that can help sometimes. Dont know if it will get rid of the vomit smell though - just generally makes my house smell pretty and gets rid of other smells. other than that - nilodor???

**Damn the No-Quick-Reply-Button*****

LOL. I have such a bad memory, cant remember what half of you said!!

Willow - Im Rebecca Pool on FB. Whats your ID??

Mo - So glad Maddi was good for her ultra sound. Thats awesome. When do you get the results?

Star - Have a fab time!!

Claire - How did you go with your 2 year old on the plane for so young (actually both your kiddies come to think of it!!) Ive been thinking about how you would have gone!!

Kim - Im so sorry Chels is sick! Can you re-schedule your weekend? Are your IL still coming? What bad timing hey! Im sorry, I know you really needed to get away. I hope Chels feels better REALLY REALLY soon!!

Got Chels's Christening dress today! It is absaloutely gorgeous!!! Satin and organza, OMG, its just beautiful! Dont think there is really to much else to say though. Hope everyone is well rested!!

Hey just a quick tip for those who can't remembe what everyone said just that you wanted to reply what they said - instead of left clicking on the reply button, right click on it and select open in new window or new tab. That way you can keep the posts that have already been written open and flick back and forth and reply.
Holy cow!!! Just looked for one of those Bumbo's online - $79.95 PLUS $27.50 postage!!!!! think it can wait till I get to Townsville in April!!

[Saffi]

Kim - oh no!!!! I know how much u were looking forward to the weekend. Will ur ILs still come down?
Viv - we use huggies day and night and have no problems. How's JJ feeling today?
Trish - love the updated photo of K
Rebecca - poo about the wrap. I have been perservering with L going unwrapped. So far mixed results and I did give in and wrap him overnight when he was terribly unsettled. Oh well we'll both get there.
Becky - when is the christening? Dress sounds beautiful.
Claire - welcome home. Sounds like you had a great time. Very jealous.
Mo - glad Maddi behaved herself for the ultrasound. Imagine it would have been hard to keep her still.

Had a friend come over for lunch today. L was well behaved and allowed his mummy some adult time.

Up and down overnight so feeling a bit tired now.

GRRRRRR Why can't babies galore have a sale during payweek!!!!!!???????
OK so I might start changing thigs a little for little miss C. We might put her down for a nap at 6-630 instead of that being her bed time. Keep her up till 830-9 and see how well she sleeps. Will try that tomorrow night. Dont want to start it during the week cause at least if I am up and down with her all night I get a chance to catch some sleep on Saturday and Sunday. Although I believe V8's start this week so I wont get much more than a grunt from DH on Sundays!
then if that works - will start leaving her unwrapped at night next friday! She sleeps during the day at daycare unwrapped - mind you that is only for 20-30 mins at a time - I REALLY dont want to be up that often tending to her at night. Maybe she just isnt ready. She is getting her arms out and fists into mouth. So I dont know if she is waking cause she is unwrapped or if she was awake and wanted her fists so unwrapped herself?! Confusing!!
Has anyone else seen those Bonds easysuits??? I wish I had had them when I first had C! How easy do they look!?!
anyway - time to get little miss c from DC. Have a good evening everyone!! MWAH

We get the results back Monday afternoon .

Amber was thinking of buying some pea-pods, if you like them i will buy one next week to try. I'm really loving MCN's.
Amber that must be new or maybe i just never noticed.

Brought an easy suit, not easy, Good thing she's flexible but i still love it & will buy more lol
