Awwww Viv, I can't believe how selfish people can be sometimes

[Ursula]

That really sucks Viv......You'd think babysitting her grandson and helping you guys out would outrank a dentist appt!

[Willow]

Viv - that is *****...you have to go to the dentist - so change your appointment??!!

Went into the chemist today. Lady behind the counter says:

"Ooh, she's a pretty little thing isn't she?"



Me:

"Yeah, HE is"

Not the first time he's been described as 'pretty' either...I don't get it! He's the boofiest baby ever! Ah well, I don't mind having a pretty-boy!

[Claire]

Willow - Lol! Oops! Funny but annoying me thinks!

Trish - Harry has eczema, not very bad but it's also around his nappy area and I'm trying to get it cleared up before he really gets into the solids (we have allergies in the family). So I took hin to a chinese medicine lady that specialises in pregnancy and paediatric acupunture. She looked him over and took a full history. It was really interesting to hear the kinds of foods that the chinese believe cause eczema, so needless to say I'm avoiding all of them now.

Ursula - Hiya!!

Viv - You're MIL must be in agony to put herself first??

[~Trish~]

Hi everyone! K is still sick, my friend texted me yesterday to say her DS has a viral infection so it sounds like K has the same thing. He chucks up heaps in the morning and his nose is really blocked up. He is much happier today though after his chiro visit yesterday. He has even had a couple of good naps, I love that chiro!!

I took the boys for a walk to the park earlier to make the most of the beautiful sunny day and when I got back I was ready for a nap! I have been so busy the last couple of days that my body has decided to give up on me today. I went to all this trouble making a nice dinner for friends coming over on Tuesday night, I spent Monday buying food and that night prepping the food (after putting K to bed), Tuesday cooking and then at 3pm DH called me to say dinner is off . I was sooo disappointed after all the effort I went to .

Claire - Have you found that the acupuncture and change of diet has worked?

Willow - How could anyone think your little man looks like a girl? I suppose it's a compliment in a way lol! I don't think anyone could mistake K for a girl!!

Ursula - Welcome back, it's great to see you back in here!

Viv - Grrr at your MIL! Do you know what you are going to do with J now?

Mo - Sorry you and Maddi are sick . I hope you feel better soon.

Amber - I should try one of those necklaces, I've heard good things about them! Oh, and I LOVE Myle's new ticker pic, he is such a little poser!

Alz - I hope you are all feeling better. Is Ethan OK?

Kim - I'm glad Chelsea's not vomitting anymore. Hopefully she'll be back to her old self soon.

Have a great night everyone

Hey all!
We are good here. Chels is loving solids! Only has brekky and dinner at the moment but will eat pretty much anything you give her. Although I did give her some banana tonight and she spat it out and pulled a horrible face! So far, thats the only thing I have found she doesnt like though. Both my babies have little colds at the moment. Nothing major, mostly just runny noses, but god are they sick of me chasing after them with tissues!

Trish - So glad that the chiro seems to be helping with K! I hope his cold clears up soon too!

Willow - Oh I used to get that sometimes with Liam. I know its nothing major but it used to **** me to tears! Dunno why, I just felt like yelling, because he clearly looked like a boy! Grrr.

Ursula - YAY! Welcome back!

Viv - That really sux about your mother in law. What ya going to do now?

Amber - Where do you get these Amber necklaces from? I have always meant to ask you!

Have a good night everyone! We are off to a new Mothers Group tomorrow. Im taking both kids to this one so thats good. Its a range of ages! Cant wait!!

claire- just with the allergies i remember one of the girls in my baby thread with Nixon mentioning allergies run in her family too, she did a lot of reseach and reading up and found that leaving solids later down the track can have a similar effect of starting before they are ready? I'm not sure what thats based off but can find out more for u if u like and please don't think im telling you how to mother either it just popped into my head when reading your post. Poor Harry with his exczmea though.

Viv- thats so horrible, im thinking of this poor woman 6months pg how she would cope my god.
but your mil thats pretty shocking, its a funeral for gods sake not a random social gathering u want to attend. If you had to take james would that be an option? i know its not preferance but would it be an option if the alternative was u couldnt go at all?
Trish- Thanks, so far dh has ripped out the entire kitchen, the old carpet and knocked down some walls. we are getting a complete new kitchen, floorborads and carpet, new lighting throughout and repainting througout. There is a bunch more stuff we'd love to do but they are the big things we are wanting to do before moving in. we have about 7 weeks to get all that done before we officially move in.

mum is minding the boys tomorrow and i am going to get dirty and get stuck into something!

becky- hope the new mums group is fun!

p.s happy 7months to my boy!! he had his needles today (i know a month late) went very well so far. had some reactions from his 4month ones so just keping a close eye on things
