Lucky I previewed my post or it would have been lost thanks Trillian hope your bubba gets better soon!

Ange poor Lu! But wow 2 teeth woohoo! Hope she sleeps better tonight! I have only had one leakage problem with the magicalls and thats cause I didnt put the booster in! I have just bought more nappies from Leah this time! It so addictive! Im pretty lazy but I am just obsessed about them! Cant wait for my lil squirt to arrive as i am sick of trying to get rid of the poo

We have Myles naming day on sunday finally! Just close family and my best friends who are the god parents1 My dear friend is doing the blessing for us which will be really special! Myles is having one spiritual week this week! We met the hugging saint on yesterday just google amma if your interested, and we were on the news when she was hugging us! So special for myles! If you want to see the news just pm me and I will send you the link!

Sherie- Don't apologise! We understand, we're right there paddling that little boat with ya!

[~Trish~]

Morning everyone!

Another early start for us today, K wouldn't sleep past 5:30am, yuck.

Sherie - You don't need to apologise! I think we all understand . I hope your bub is on the other side of those teeth.

Ange - Woohoo to Lu for popping out two teeth at once ! That will probably explain why she was so unwell, she was trying to be efficient! I hope the nights go back to normal for you soon.

Amber - Wow, how exciting you were on TV! Myles' naming day sounds like it will be lovely.

Mo - How's the new house? Are you all unpacked yet? How did Maddi go in the move?

Viv - I forgot to comment about your eBay post yesterday. How bad are the new rules? It's meant to be for "buyer protection", but come on, who owns PayPal? I never accept PayPal with my listings because of the additional fees (I do use it through my website). Think I might move my business to another auction site...

Hope you all have a great weekend (love this one!)

I read back & can't really remember anything.

Yay for all the babies getting their teeth, M is still toothless.
WTG Lu crawling on all fours, WTG Myles for crawling as-well.
Trish is K still sleeping well for you?

Nothing new or exciting to post, Move went well apart from all the stuffing around.
We have ADSL because cable doesn't run here, also had to change to Telstra because Optus doesn't service the area & we are getting Austar on Monday because Foxtel doesn't service the area.

My Sister has been admitted to Hospital, her cervix is shortening & thinning out, she 2 & half cms dilated & getting some contractions which keep getting stronger.
they're running lots of test's & monitoring her for now.
She's only 30 weeks, So hoping my little nephew will stay in there a bit longer

Sry for the Me post.

ETA-Maddi went well considering, messed up her routine but she's made herself a new one, up at 5-30-6.30am bed at 8-10pm, 1 big nap 2hr nap & if I'm lucky two 20mins naps.I liked her old routine better *lol*
Place is heaps bigger so all she does is roll every-where, Loves looking out the window at the Dogs.
All unpacked, felt like it took forever, Never realized we had so much stuff & a lot of it was Junk.

ange - with the brauer, i just gave him 1ml each time. i'm a believer in the barest minimum to get by. it is supposed to be 1ml half-hourly for two hours the first time you use it - or if you have a break. i haven't done that many doses before. i've done a 4.30 and 6.30 at best. i think it goes up to the bigger dose for 6mo.

i only use it for this pre-erupting phase, just to help calm him. if he's in real pain and very unhappy i go for the baby panadol (but not together). the other night when he was whimpering for ages and couldn't get to sleep, i went the old bonjela, baby pan and boob. worked a treat.

can't believe the guni girl has popped two fangs! *bite*

Howdy

Better night had by all. L woke up at around 9.30pm so kept him up until 11.30pm. He needed a quick dummy check at about 2 which DH did on the way back from the loo and then I fed him at 4. Brought him in with us at about 6 and we all snoozed until 7.30. DH then took him and I slept until just before 10. So feeling pretty good about things.

Guess who has a second tooth! This one is right next to the other one. The pooey nappies have decreased in number as has the drool. Hopefully that will be it for the time being. TG I'm not BF anymore as he is chomping on my finger a bit and it hurts!

Amber - hope you have a good day tomorrow. Look forward to seeing the photos.
Mo - ah the joys of moving. Hope your sister stays pg for a bit longer.

Not much else happening. L is down for a sleep so might go off and have a shower.
