Hi Emily!!
Yep I am in Brisbane too! Im at Boronia Heights (near Browns Plains). I will always be an Adelaide girl at heart though... LOL
Welcome Emily :)
Trish have a great weekend away & hope Cam fixed your heater for you.
Had some very chilly morning lately.
Trish, Kellie & Ange hope to see you all next Sunday if the weather is nice.
Welcome Emily! Hope to hear more from you...our little group has really shrunk these days!
Have a fun time away Trish!
Hope everyone is well, have a great weekend :)
Trinity & MiniMax thanx for the warm welcome and yeah it does seem a bit quiet on this thread everyone must be busy chasing after their little munchkins, speaking of its a bit quiet Id better see what hes getting up to!!
Have a good weekend
Welcome Emily!
Hi girls and welcome Emily!
Have had a relatively quiet day here, getting the odd jobs done around the house. Popped over to Fountain Gate, so busy there. I am printing a christmas photo this year instead of a card. I have written a little message on there so that takes care of that. Getting the photo proved to be a bit hard. It is mission impossible getting the girls to sit still and even a bigger challenge to get them to sit near each other. So I had a plan ... bring in the dog ... they both love him and I ended up getting a cute picture of them, with Benji who had reindeer's ears on and tinsel wrapped around him ... he is such a trouper!
My sleepless nights are continuing :crying:. Tay woke up 3 times last night, first time we settled her with panadol and teething gel, second time she came to our bed and third time we got her a bottle and put her back into her cot. I am sure its teeth and I really hope that its a quick passing phase!
Anyway I better go. We are going to have some dinner and head down to the Frankston Lights Festival so that the girls can see the fireworks. I think that they are on around 9, so I am hoping they stay up that late! We will see.
Hope you are all having a great weekend x :dance:
Welcome Emily! I am in logan too, Crestmead to be exact!
Will be back later when the munchkin is in bed!
Hi everyone!
Hey all!
Emily - welcome to our little group. I am a Brissie girl too - Bardon to be exact. Look forward to getting to know you both.
Becky - I got a copy of That's Life to see your little ones. Sooo cute. Have they sent you the cheque yet?
Kaz - great idea about the Christmas photo. I've taken up card making so I made all mine, but will keep that in mind for future. Would have been so cute with the dog in it - had all the kids.
Kellie - I've heard cloth nappies are addictive.
Mo - how's your Mum doing?
Trish - hope you had a great weekend. I've been to Queenscliffe very briefly. Seems like a nice holiday place.
Nic - I bet you're hoping Ty will not walk for a while yet. It'd be full on running after 2 little ones.
Julia - if that cousin ever comes to visit, be sure to extend the same hospitality as she gave you and Max.
Had a pretty busy weekend. Friday afternoon was my work Xmas party. Then on Friday night went to our goddaughter's dance recital. She is 5 and it was so cute to see all the little ones dancing. They had the whole studio performing everyone from the very young ones to the teenagers on points. There were even some boys.
Then yesterday I had a pedicure at Mumma Bubba which for you Brissie girls is a dayspa/creche. Very nice - can highly recommend it. I now have toes that are ready for summer.
Today, after a sleep in, we went up to Suttons Beach (Redcliffe) for lunch and then a walk along the foreshore, a paddle in the ocean and icecream. Lochie was a little uncertain about the water at first but then seemed to enjoy it. Was trying to eat handfuls of sand so it will be interesting to see his nappies over the next few days.
Anyway, the weekend has passed all too quickly and it is time to get ready for another week at work :(
I'll pop in during the week to say hi.
Hi everyone! We had a great weekend away with our friends. The weather was great too. Joel & K had a great time playing at the beach as usual! The house we stayed in was SO nice! They had a spa too so we all got to relax when the kids went to bed.
K has started to do a weird crawl, he keeps his legs straight so it looks like a half crawl/half walk LOL! I'm not sure what the go is there? He's also cutting tooth number 8 atm so he's a bit cranky, but not as bad as he has been with his other teeth.
Saffi - Sounds like you had a very busy weekend! I'm so jealous you got to have a pedicure!
Amber - Love the photos of your holiday place on FB, I'm so jealous! Have you stayed in there yet?
Karen - I hope your nights get better soon! There is nothing worse than interrupted sleep.
Hi Emily and welcome to our group! Good luck TTC #2!
Julia - Is Max settling back into his sleep routine now you've been home for a while?
Mo - Yep, DH finally fixed the heater! It was nice to put it on this morning just to take the edge off the cold. It's hard to believe that it's summer today and I had the heating on LOL!
Kellie - I like the idea of cloth nappies, but they just seem SO expensive! I can get sposies so cheap from a factory outlet that I don't think I'd save money by buying cloth. MCNs are so cute though!
Becky - Congrats on getting your photo into the mag! Did you win a prize or money?
Well I'm off to keep tackling our massive washing pile. I've also gotta add more stock to my website, I've had lots come in, but it take so long to get it on the site! I'll do my best to stay off BB and get it done LOL!
Hey everyone,
Got my laptop back from self destructing, how is everyone? Nothing much to report here, Ry is being tempremental all of a sudden, going on a detox and back to basics for a week to see if its food related. I'm alright, DP is alright, being a bit self-absorbed lately, need to give him a good whack upside the noggin to spur him back into fatherhood duties..
Hope all is well, take care catchyas :-)
Hey chickies...how is everyone going?
We are good. Chelsea was 2 on Saturday, shame she was sick.
Jasmine is walking alot more now....not everywhere...but most places and she is very proud of herself...as is Craig and myself. Food is getting better...she is beginning 'real' stuff now and im happy about that. Still loves day care...and is so excited when i go to pick her up of an afternoon. She is pretty sick atm, a nasty cold with a chesty cough, hates her nose being wiped so its not been fun!
AFM...im going well..BumbleBee is due NEXT month...or maybe even THIS month!! His room is nearly ready and im excited as can be. Cant wait to meet my much awaited Prince. Chelsea is excited bout her Brudda and always asks if baby is ok.
Well i best get a move along...take care ladies and ill pop back in soon to see how your all going!
Celtic - I've been wondering where you are! Glad to hear you're well. Hopefully changing Ryan's diet makes a difference, it's so hard when you can't pinpoint what the problem is.
Kim - Yay for Jasmine starting to walk! And happy birthday to Chelsea for last Saturday! It's a popular day the 29th, it's my good friend's birthday and our dog's birthday LOL! How exciting that you have Bumblebee's room all set up!
Trish sounds like a great weekend. Lets hope the weather is nice this Sunday.
Kim good to hear Jasmine is walking & eating more.
Celtic nice to hear from you.
Saffi my Mum is ok, thanks for asking.
As for us Maddi had a 24hr bug yesterday, she had the runs, was vomiting & had a temp.
Wouldn't eat only wanted water or milk to drink. Woke up today & she was fine.
Still not eating a lot but she had half an apple so that something.
We got to see my Friends new baby he is so tiny. 16wks feels like it ages away.
Even tho the first 24wks have gone by so quickly.
ETA- We did the BB Secret Santa.
We got our presents today & Maddi was too quick for me & unwrapped hers. She loves it.
It's a little Elmo guitar & she walking around the house dancing to the music lol.
Plus she got this gorgeous Abby T-Shirt. She did very well with her SS present.
Hi guys! Been MIA again for a while. Just been so busy and I have missed so much!
Kimba- I CANNOT believe you are due already!! My goodness time flies.
Mo- 16 weeks left!! I just cannot believe it! Why oh why did it drag on when I was pregnant but it seems to be flying past for those of you who are doing it all again! I cannot wait to see the birth announcements!!
Well there have been a few developments on this end. Friday Caitlyn took her first step at daycare. Saturday morning - she was OFF!! She just walked everywhere that she could. Although her top half seems to go faster than her bottom half which ends up with a few little face plants.
Sunday - off to hospital with a temp of 39.5. Had her temp taken there and it was 39.7, dose of panadol, wait half an hour, temp 39.6. Words to Doctor (on phone mind you - no doctor there just on call!) dose of Nurofen. There just didnt seem to be anything wrong. No bites, cuts, bruises etc etc. No vominting or diarrhoea. Well it turns out my little girl has a urinary tract infection. How on earth did that happen? I feel like the worlds WORST mum!! ow does a 1 yr old get a urinary tract infection.
Anyway - she is on antibiotics now and hopefully things improve.
Last night was a shocker though. She didnt have an afternoon nap so went to bed at 6 instead of 7. She woke at 1030 crying. Went in and cuddled her and made sure she was ok. She kept it up until 1115 when i bought her back to bed with us - no go. 1230 I took her back to her bed and gave her some panadol and a bottle. She was quiet until 130 when she woke crying. went in and checked on her, cuddled her again. Put her back. Quiet until 230 when the screaming was soooo loud that i didnt need the monitor to hear it. It was almost as though she was being hurt, like being bitten or something. So I went in and checked on her. Dose of nurofen and cuddles - must have done the trick becuase she slept until 630 this morning. Suffice to say i am EXHAUSTED!! And now work has been slack and cut off my connection so I can't do anything and all i want to do i sleep!!!!
Anyway - sorry ladies for being a bore and whinging! I feel like i have ignored everyone! Am sorry for those that i have missed and i hope all the bubbas are doing extremely well!
mwah
Bec - I am sorry to hear Caitlyn is really unwell. My 2 year old had her first urinary tract infection a few month ago, the doctor said its really common in girls around that age. I guess the only thing better for me is that Mia could tell me what was hurting. Its so hard with the smaller ones. I hope she gets better soon, and I especially hope you get a little sleep in today and have a better night tonight xx
Mo - 14 weeks to go, oh my gosh! I think the second pregnancy flies when you have a little one to run around after. I hope that the next 14 weeks go well for you!
Kim - Happy birthday for Saturday Chelsea and way to go Jasmine. Kim I dont know how you do it with another one nearly hear. I am finding I am pulling my hair out more and more lately. I certainly have two little she devils at times! A boy into your mix will be a welcome change I am sure!
Celtic - welcome back!
Hi Trish, Bec & Saffi and anyone else I have missed.
Not much going on with me at the moment. I am surviving on very little sleep today. Tay has been up most of the night, she is cutitng her eye teeth and sleeping was the last thing she wanted to do. Bruno is away, so I get to cope with it all by myself, yay. I will be a basket case by the end of the week. Plus she bit my finger when I was putting teething gel on her last night and cut my skin and it wont stop bleeding, I think its the position that she got? Not sure what to do about this biting? Its getting out of control. Is anyone else having a problem with biting? I didnt go through it with Mia, so its all new to me!
Hope you are all well xx
