Be scared, be very scared.....
oooooo man, yeah she did chomp once. I had some girlfrinds over, we were gasbaging, she was squarking a bit. To keep her quiet i whipped out a boob. She obviously wasn't hungry amd bit it! faaaaaaaaaaaarout it hurt, those little fangs are sharp. havn't done that again.

ETA- Willow, i presume rice is fine, seeing as rice cereal is a first food. i gave pasta a little while after i started, i think about 8 weeks after starting solids.

LOL viv that's something i hadn't thought of! i often wonder if i was still pumping how much i'd be producing these days as u just cant keep the uptake the same as breastfeeding.
I do remember what it feels like to be bitten and ouchy wower esp when you'r not ready for it (not that u would be waiting for them to bite lol)

still 5 more weeks before we move in, going there tomorrow to clean up a bit havent been in over a week, had some jiprocking done last week and getting some built in waredrobe quotes this week.

how's this, DH tells me tonight that something happened in Phukett he hadn't told me. He got jumped.... well attempted jumping..... it was the 2nd night he left the pub they were all at to go to the atm the next block, he withdrew our equivalent to $300 and as he turned around 3 blokes stopped him and told him to give them his money... he told them to F off and they came at him.
He told me he actually picked one up threw him threw him, punched the next guy in the head he went to the ground, then the 3rd guy ran off so Dh then ran back to his hotel.......
like what if they had a knife.... what if what if, im still trying to imagine my husband in a fight and actually throwing someone, no wonder he didnt tell me over the phone i would have booked him a flight back home the next day.... suppose to be a corporate work trip and he's fighting off robbers.....what do u say to that??

[Uncle Amy]

Aw nickers I'd be so impressed. For nothing else but to know he could look after himself! Yeah they could have had knives - maybe they did - don't look at the what ifs, he's not in trouble. I'd feel relieved to know that if something wierd happened out of the blue, and me and bubz were there too, that he could defend us. You so lucky!!!!!

P.S - nightime nappies

try Mamia disposables from Aldi, DS peed through the huggies, but the Mamia ones a great

Evening!

We had a nice day today, we had our good friends over. They have a bub 6 weeks older than K so we took them for a walk and a play at the park. They are moving closer to us in a couple of weeks so I can't wait to catch up with them more! K is heaps bigger than their bub, he's such a boofer!

Hi Amy! What's Fin up to these days? Does he have any teeth? Is he moving around much? I love Aldi nappies at night too!

Nic - Wow, your DH sounds like an action movie star LOL! I'm glad he is OK, you must have been so freaked out when he told you.

Rallybbek - Stop lurking and start posting! Great to hear from you! K has no teeth yet either, I hope they never arrive LOL.

Ange - Ouch, I'm not looking forward to getting bitten. It hurts enough when I get gummed.

Have a great night all

Evening everyone,
Hope everyone enjoyed their public holiday. We had what we thought would be a quiet one but didn't turn out that way. A new spotlight opened near us today. They had a sale on their floor rugs so we went to check it out (we have icy cold floor boards). Well so did everyone else in western sydney. It was chaos.

Well I am a bit sad today. Didn't want to say anything last week but I thought that I was pg. Well did a test a couple of days ago and I'm not. Just got my late friend so now am sad. 16 months is a little closer than we originally planned but I would love to have another bub. Anyway it will happen when the time is right. Just wanted to share. Dh says it is good because we weren't ready anyway but I can't help but be disappointed.

Gave Ethan his first finger food dinner the other night. He loved it. Had really soft pear and toast. Well he can't pick up the pear because it is so slippery but loved munching to toast. Yay for my little man. Anyone else have any ideas for finger foods?

Hope you all have a great night.

We're back! Decided weekends away aren't as fun as they used to be before L. He was unsettled with his sleeps and was grumpy. As for Byron Bay, its not as much fun when you're in your 30s with a kid. Don't see us going back any time soon. Did call in to Byron Bay Cookie Company factory outlet and picked up some bikkies.

Becky - belated happy birthday. Hope you had a good day.
Nic - L's not walking (yet). His crawling has improved so much in the last few days. 7 teeth - wow! I bet he has a wonderful smile. L is just getting his 3rd through now. I've seen photos of your DH and I wouldn't want to get into a physical struggle with him. Just glad that it turned out alright.
Alz - sounds like E prefers finger foods. We gave L a steamed green bean last night and while he didn't eat it, he gave it a good gumming. I think pretty much any fruit or veg as long as its soft enough. Have you given him meat yet?

Anyway, loveys, got a pile of washing to do, need to iron my work clothes and generally get ready for the week. Hope you all had a good weekend.

Hi everyone,

Hope you all had a lovely long weekend!

I went to see Sue Dengate talk the on Friday night Food Intolerance Network It was a really interesting talk about the affect of food additives and chemicals on children and adults. I have been folowing the FAILSAFE diet the past month or so because I had heard the infant ezcema can be caused by amongst other things, MSG, preservatives and salicylates. I'm really hapy to report that Harry's eczema is 99% cleared up and I think that the diet and the acupunture have done wonders!

Viv - Jogger pram, I've got a P&T - never actually attempted to run with it but seen plenty of mums doing it at the park. Boobie - I will probably feed for more than 12 months (I fed Emily for 22 months) not sure how long but I will actively wean him at 2 years if he hasn't weaned before then.

Becky - Happy Birthday to you!

Amber - We are staying in Margate? Any recommendations of things to do and see? I know that we are visiting Bindy Zoo on one of the days.........

Willow - I'm in Pazzamatta - you?
