Viv - we're still feeding at night here too and can't see that ending any time soon to be honest.
Just waiting for L to wake from his nap then we're bathing the kids and putting them in the car to drive up to mum and dads.
Hope you all have a happy Easter!!
"See" you all when we get back on Tuesday.
Willow - like you signature pic - is that a Tots cover? I just ordered a new Berry Bamboo Delight and a Blosson Bumgenius while they are on sale oh and a new Ellas House Bumhugger 'cos I lurve them
Waaaaaa AF returned today...............waaaaaaaaaaaaaa again. I was hoping it would stay away longer. I thought night feeding made it stay away not come back!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!
Off to have a tanty.....

Evening all
Had a great day today. Went up to Kuranda on the cable car above the rainforest. Amazing. Going to go out to Green Island in the next couple of days. L has been so good given his routine has been totally put out.
Terri - went to Kuranda - very disappointing. I lived in Mareeba for a while so went to the markets regularly. They were so much better 25 years ago LOL. Now just full of Australian souveniers made in China.
Trish - Pool is on St Crispins Dr. It is back past the Mirage. The boys caught fish but they had a catch and release policy. Brought back one fish, a Grunter which they cooked on the BBQ and was really nice.
Viv - we are still up at least twice a night and we do a dream feed most nights before I go to bed and then feed him when he wakes between 2 - 4am.
Amber - yes, a catch up is in order before I go back to work in May. have a nice camping holiday.
Leah - bummer on AF. God only knows when she'll visit me.
L is doing the superman thing too. He is trying really hard to bring his legs underneath himself. Expect that any time now he will be crawling all over the place. Yes, they are growing so fast. Never thought I'd say that I miss my little newborn (but not the constant crying).

Morning all, we had a shocking night! DH and Joel went out for dinner for FIL's b'day. I didn't go because I didn't want to take a grumpy and tired K (not much fun). They came home and DH said that Joel ate all his dinner which I thought unusual lol! At 12:30am Joel made some noise and I went in and he said "mummy I'm not well". He says that most nights for attention so I didn't think much of it until 1am when he started up again and then started vomitting. I made DH get up to help clean everything up. Joel then didn't want to go back to his own bed so he came into bed with us, but DH couldn't sleep so he slept in Joel's bed. So in amongst that and K waking numerous times after his 4am feed I'm feeling pretty tired today! I'm not happy, I'm sure it is because MIL would have been constantly trying to feed Joel, this is the third time he has vomitted o'night because MIL has made him eat too much
. I'm normally there to tell her "no, Joel has had enough"!
Sorry for the selfish start to my post!
Saffi - That cable car sounds awesome! We have never been on it because of the $$$. We usually hire a car and drive up to the Daintree for a day. Oh, I'm still so jealous of you!!!
Leah - Sorry to hear AF has made her arrival. I hope mine doesn't come back any time soon!
Willow - Have a great time away with your family!
Amber - I hope you have a great time away camping! Where are you off to?
Rebecca - Bummer you can't give up work. Joel hated tummy time up until he could commando crawl (around 6 months) so don't worry about Caitlyn. Joel was crawling properly by 8 months so he was right on track. Oh and I still wrap K completely too. He is starting to get out of his wrap and not care though so I'm sure we can turf it soon.
Mo - I'm glad Maddi is on the mend. Can't wait to see a pic of her in her bunny outfit!
Ange - Wow, how clever is Lu getting around! Sadly once they start moving they never stop!!
Alz - Glad you're starting to feel better. Yep, I feel like my bub is growing too fast as well!
Viv - K is still fed o'night *sigh*. He gets a dream feed at 9:30pm and then wakes around 4 - 4:30am for a feed. How are your toes recovering?
Star - That's great Mateo is sleeping longer stretches! He will be sleeping through before you know it.
Hope you all have a great day!!!

trish - toes are healing like champs. thanks for asking. i will be able to get a pedi soon and maybe even display them... ooh, just in time for winter
little man hit a hungry patch last night and pick up his 2am feed again. meh. will have to tank him up today.
and for the refluxers/chuckers out there - having curbed dairy and chocolate has made a huge difference. he just does normal baby possets now with the occasional hurl. it's not cured but it's certainly managed.

Trish - sorry to hear you had such a horrible night! Hope today is a good one for you
Amber - have a great time camping
Saffi - your making me even more jealous!
Viv - glad to hear your chucking troubles are getting sorted out
I finally convinced my DH to get an ergo, so we did, and we took Tahlia out in it yesterday to Target and she loved it! No grizzling like what she does on the pram, however, I had a wet patch on my tshirt from the drool! and its way better on my back then the other one I had
Tahlia is properly rolling around now, she did it a couple of weeks ago, but then hadn't done it since. On Tuesday we were at my mums and she rolled and cracked it, so I flipped her back and she just kept on rolling. Tuesday night I got up to check on her, and she was fast asleep on her tummy with her face planted into the mattress... it freaked me out, I rolled her back over just to make sure she was breathing! I'll be much more relaxed when she can go back the other way too!

Kellie love your ticker pic! Myles sucks on the ergo too and there is always slobber all over it! Our bubs are alike myles sleeps on his tummy sometimes too its so scary when you go in and they are on their tummies upside down!
Viv so glad james isnt"hurling" as much! Hope he sleeps better tonight!

Kellie- lol at drool patch. Am impressed you can get the ergo on your back. I can never wrestle it on my own so still wear her on the front. i always put a facewasher on my cleavage now. The dribble down the grand canyon was too much to cope with. Not to mention the occasional spew.
When Lu started rolling in her cot it freaked me out too. sometimes she sleeps face down. Until she could roll both ways i used to put rolled up towels at her hips running down her legs to stop her rolling. You can put them under the sheet if you like. I didn't bother, but having them there certainly let me sleep better.
Have fun camping Amber- we were supposed to be heading off too but DH has to work. Crap. Lu and i going down the coast tomorrow for the night instead.
Any of you QLD gals know a nice place to stay for a week in Mooloolaba?
No news here really.......Think i need knee pads for the girls red knees. Maybe we need more carpet. MAybe they'll just toughen up in their own time!
Night. Hope your night is better Trish.
