[~Trish~]

Hi everyone!

I really should be doing housework, but thought I'd pop in here first LOL! K is happily weaned now, luckily my supply was pretty low so I haven't had to worry about engorgement or mastitis. I have to admit, as sad as I am, it's great to wear my non-maternity bras again! I had peanut butter toast today, I miss it so much! I've been avoiding it because we have a family history of peanut allergies.

K is doing lots of clever stuff now, he blows on command (I've been trying to teach him in time for his birthday cake!), he calls his teddy "ted ted", he makes car noises on command and will imitate me when I show him how to move his toy car. He also says "ta" without prompting when you hand him things. It's such a fun age!

Kellie - I'm glad your giraffe cake worked out! Make sure you take a photo of the final one!

Pish - BB was playing up late last week which is probably why you had problems. If you go to post and you get a page like "internet explorer cannot display this page (yadda yadda)", hit the back button and your post should still be there. I usually copy it and try paste and post it again later.

Nic - A caterpillar cake sounds so cute, you're so clever with making cakes! Poor Tyron cutting more teeth, how many does he have now? He is a teething machine!

Kazaraz - Not long to go until Tay's first birthday!! I'm glad she had a fun day at Luna Park, it sounds like fun!

Julia - Good luck showing your dog tomorrow! Have you done shows before? It must be hard keeping his coat clean and tidy!

Saffi - It is handy that K has weaned himself, I guess it's better than trying to force it upon him later! How's L feeling, he was sick last week wasn't he?

Dragonbub - I'm glad Caden has stopped snoring, that must be a relief. That's great you are putting him on a potty already! Hopefully the transition will be easier later on.

Mo - I'm glad Maddi's party went well, I love the photos on FB!

Celtic - How's the foot today? I hope you've been keeping off it as much as possible!

Ange - I'm glad Lu's party went well, how awesome that the Hawks won! Double celebrations for you LOL!

Misskate - Lachlan sounds like such a good bubba! I haven't tried those teething tablets, I really should go and get some, so many people swear by them.

Amber - How was your weekend trip? Where did you go? Love the FB photos!

Star - Happy 2nd anniversary! I hope you had a great weekend away together

Hi to everyone I've missed, hope you all have a great day!

[-becky-]

And that would be me Trish ... LOL

Well I tried TT again! Still no luck. Yesterday, the tally was 2 wee's in the potty, 8 wee accidents and 2 poo accidents.... Grrr.r...... I know it was only day 1 but come on....! He'd sit on the pot for 25 minutes, then get off and wet his pants! For those girls who have a toddler too, would you recommend waiting a few months and then trying agian, or keep at it now? Toilet Trainign SUX!
Apart from that, not much new with me. I am doing a BUTTERFLY cake for Chels (surprise surprise considering her whole room is butterflies!) Should be intereseting....
Chels is cahattering non stop ATM. As soon as she hears her Daddy's car at night, she crawls to the door yelling "Dad dad!" (So cute!) She waves and claps non stop. Chases our cat around saying "Cat!" And if your talking to her, she will mimic everything you say. Its so cute!


Ange - YAY for the Hawks! I think everyone who is not a cats fan was going for them hey? I am a HUGE Crows fan, our whole house is done in Crows... LOL. But must say, I do have a soft spot for the Hawks too! Glad Lu's party went well!€

Celtic - How ya managing with your foot injury and looking after a bubba? Hope he is treating you well!

Nic & Kellie - Cant wait to see pics of your cakes!!

Tiff - Hmmmmmmm... pregnancy brain????

So MYLES must be the next birthday boy hey? I'll try and get in tomorrow but if I dont,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MYLES!!!!!

Hi everyone else! Will be back later if I can! X

Trish & Becky- Thanks my foot is looking better today it bled a bit after tripping and jumping down from the retaining wall before I fell down but other than that it's not that bad. The rest of my muscles in my leg hurt from walking funny though always the way!!

Sorry to hear about the toilet training Becky, do you use those 'pull up' nappy/undie things? Then if there is an accident it contains it and doesn't really matter? Maybe wait and see how it goes? Early days Hope it gets better ASAP

Got DP to agree to a girls name if we have a girl, still having trouble with another boys name though I like Riley he thinks two boys starting with the same letter is silly and confusing, prolly so but I still like the name anyway hehe

Just a quick selfish post from me.
Started bleeding & cramping last night in the shower not a lot but enough to make us goto the hospital to get it checked out.
Not much they could do except take my blood & send me for an scan in the morning.
Had the scan everything is fine with Cookie, growing spot on even has a huge head lol.
They think i may have a low laying placenta, she couldn't tell me for sure but according to her it's either my placenta or some membranes.
Off to see my Dr tomorrow hopefully & hoping it's nothing at all.

Mo - so glad everything is ok with cookie but would have been a scare for you.
Ty's teeth are still giving him greif he has been a shocker all day, dh just got him back to sleep now, poor thing wants to sleep but can clearly tell they are hurting him.
incase i dont get on tomorrow HAPPY BIRTHDAY MASTER MYLES!
Its amazing that 12months ago we were all sitting typing with HUGE aching bellies hehe

[Saffi]

To the little monkey Myles,
Lochie and I hope you have a really happy birthday

Mo - glad to hear everything is ok with Cookie. Take it easy ok!
Kaz - if I was a mature wine I'd definitely be a nice Shiraz.
Becky - better luck next time with the TT. I am sure there will be many more mistakes. Shame its so messy tho. At least now it is getting warmer he can run around the back yard in no nappy on.
Julia - good luck for Charlie in the Show. He looks like a show dog. Have you ever seen "Best in Show"? Its so funny.
Trish - bravo on 11 months! Great effort. Are you giving K formula or cows milk? L is better now. He's constantly had a cold since he started DC but apart from that he's good.

Hi to everyone else.

Cakes/party - I think we'll be going for a teddy bear theme. L has lots of teddy bears including a giant teddy bear rug in his room so probably appropriate. Good idea about the trial run.

To those with toddlers did you do onto Toddler formula or straight to cows milk?

Not much else happening here.
