Julia Ange should pop 1st, there is exactly 2 weeks between us. So we could end up going around the same time like we did with Lulu & Maddi
WTG Charlie on the winning the shows, you must be so proud of him.
Sorry no help with the co-sleeping issue i'm still trying to get Maddi into her cot.
DB-Sounds like a very stressful day at work, hope your next day goes better
Saffi-Glad L is settling in fine & very cute with story about the clothes.
Maddi does something similar when your cleaning up after her.
How are all the Melb girls & toddlers coping with this heat?
Hey all! Uggh, it's so hot here! It's gonna be 43 degrees today and tomorrow, we are going stir crazy being kept inside all day! Luckily we have aircon which makes life more bareable, I wouldn't be staying here today if we didn't have it.
I'm off to the chiro this morning. She did such a great job last time, my lower back has been the best it's been in a long time
Oh and K is walking more than crawling now, so I guess we can say he is officially walking! He is walking less "zombie"-like now LOL! He still crawls outside though, I think he feels safer because it's not an even surface.
Mo - I really, really, really feel for you in this heat! Do you have aircon?
Julia - It might be worth trying Max in a bed? You could try a toddler bed that is low to the ground to start with. Joel hated his cot too, but took to his toddler bed without an issue. K only just started standing up without holding onto anything last week, he literally just started doing it out of the blue! I reckon Max will do the same.
Saffi - Yay for L sleeping on the mat! And putting clothes in the hamper is too cute! K keeps putting my thongs in our front-loader .
Dragonbub - Yuck, what an awful start to the week! It can only get better from here!!
Kim - How's the new man in your life going?
Amber - Welcome back, we missed you!
Rebecca - Caitlyn sounds like she is going to be lovely and tall.
Tiff - Good girl for going to the gym! K is in size 1 atm, a handful of size 0's still fit, but they seem big sizes. I look forward to our meet up!
Hi to everyone else! Hope you all stay cool today!!
Rebecca - Ireally hate humidity!!! Well to be quite honest I can't breathe at all when its humid... Asthma! I would never cope up there lol at least its not too hot there then.
Dragon bub - We have just started TTC... as of last night hehehe Its a bit exciting, but I know it may take a while which I really dont mind when ever it happens I'll be ready. I do think its good for Tiera. I saw Saffi's posts about L at d/c moving up to the toddler room and sleeping on themat, eating together, etc and I thought I really have to let go a bit and get her into those situations... Its not always just going to be us. As for work - You poor thing. I know what those days are like, theres nothing worse! I hope today was better for you.
Saffi - YAY for L sleeping on a mat.... What a good boy! That is just fantastic, I'd be proud too! He seems to be adjusting well to the change is such a short time. I do agree that its good that they get use to different people and carers.
Julia - I saw your comment of facebook RE Creche! lol Tiera is such a social butterfly and just loves new and different experiences, which I am greatful for. Sometimes I wish she was a bit more sensitive, she's a bit of a rough nutt!! hahaha As for a bed... I didn't think Tiera would be ready for a bed by the time she turned two (If we get pg straight away bub will be due approx 2 weeks after her 2 b'day), but she has started trying to climb out of her cot, unsuccessfully so far, but I'm sure in time she'll get there. She does thrash about a lot in her cot, but she's been in it since the day she came home from hossy so I just think she has some kind of sense of the bars?! Hmmm I dunno.. My friend has a bub T's age and has a bub due in March and her little man is going into a bed with a rail. The extra room may just be what Max needs Congrats on the dog shows! That is fantastic.. I do think your dog is gorgeous (facebook!) but geez it must be hard work keeping that coat clean and untangled!
Trish - Ahhhhh thats horrible weather! I hope its a little cooler when we're there Wooo Hooo for K... He'll be walking full time before you know it.
I'm a bit sore after th gym yesterday! hahaha Its all good, once I'm into the swing of things I'll barely feel it. Tiera has been waking through the night for the fast 4 nights or so last night she was really upset, she had a dirty bum which I changed but she was still very upset of a while. She was so hot so a layed her on top of our bed under the fan and it didn't take her long to dose off, so I out her back to bed... Then was up again at 3:45am this time I think she was just having a sook. I don't like putting her in bed with us cuz it only takes her one or two nights to get use to it, even though I always take her back to her own bed just before or just after she's dozed back off. It maybe her teeth so thats why I continue to go in there and let her come into bed with us... Its just so hard to know sometimes!
I maybe heading back down to SYD this arvo, just have to see how long DH is going away for. Anyways I'm making a baked dinner for luch today!!! lol I pulled out a roast for dinner last night, but not long after that I pulled out other meat as I completely forgot about the roast! Saw it in the fridge last night so a big luch will be good for Josh as he wont be eating proberly for the next few nights as he'll be camping.
Anyways I think this post is far too big so I'm shutting up now! hahaha I hope all have a great day

Trish i feel like I'm gonna die in this heat lol & with Maddi teething she is just being so clingy.
She is always wanting cuddles & she has slight temp because of the teething so she's just like hot water bottle.
Yes we got an air con thank goodness, ended up putting it at 10am this morning because it was already 35 degrees inside.
That's great about K, bet he is such much happier now.
How are you feeling with this pregnancy? Do you think you'll have another boy?
Tiff Yes she is, people always think she is older than she is.
A roast lunch sounds so nice & Fingers crossed you get a positive very quickly
Julia - I think we'll wait until the baby is ready to go into the cot before we move L into a bed. L was in his basinette for the first 3 - 4 months so hopefully we should be able to get the same out of #2. L's cot is also a toddler bed - not that he will be able to use it as #2 will be in it. We do have a trundle bed that when folded is close to the ground so I think that would do. Saves having to buy another bed, when L will only be going into the trundle bed anyway. Melb girls - really feel for you with the heat. Hope you're all coping. What's betting after this heat wave there will be a stretch of days around 20degrees!
Anyway dinner has arrived (in the form of hamburgers from the shop next door so I am off).
Wow, 43 degrees in Melbourne! No wonder you are all going stir crazy at home. It is hot here, but lately it has been overcast and it gets up to 30 but takes all day. At least it is not too hot, but uncomfortable just the same cos you have to dress for all seasons.
Pish - how exciting on TTC! Will DH be going away for a while? My gf in my mothers group was TTC and her hubby travels a bit. The month she got BFP was the month she was sure he wasn't there, LOL.
Trish - glad to hear the chiro went well last time, fingers crossed for this time. I have been taking Caden there since this time last year and am sure it has helped his posture and sleeping.
Hope all the southern girls are not too hot Its actually quite cool here, has been raining on and off so we have your weather lol!
We had a lovely weekend at the dam, DH had a great birthday. We skiied morning and arvo so i was pretty sore on tuesday! Myles slept really well too, we wore him out alot! Just let him go feral, like no nappy and running wild lol! He is sleeping in our bed at the moment but only seems to stir once so its getting us more sleep! yipee!
Am catching up with Becky tomorrow looking forward to watching the kids get to know eachother!
hmm dont think i have any other news, would do personals but there is so much to ctach up on i will just try to stay in the loop!
I am melting here... it is so hot! We just got back from the beach, it was much cooler there, there were so many people but Tahlia didnt want to go in the water.. I dont blame her though.. it was freezing!
Tiff - Tahlia is also in a size 1... most 0's are too short for her now.. they are a few bigger 0's that she still fits into though
Saffi - glad to hear your little man is sleeping on the mat at daycare! I've been looking at a few centres around here for when I return to work, and when one of the ladies told me they slept on mats I must have had a surprised look on my face, cause she read my mind by saying 'you'd be surprised what they do when they are here, cause they want to be like the other kids'
Julia - a friend of mine was expecting no 2 when no 1 was really young, so she moved no 1 into a bed just after his 1st birthday and he coped fine. Another friend moved her DD into as cot at around 18 months and found it hard, cause her DD kept getting out of bed in the middle of the night and coming into their room, so I guess every child copes differently!
Trish - yay on K officially walking!
Saffi - its forecast to be 43 again tomorrow, then 35 on Saturday and then low 30's until next Thursday, so I dont think we'll be seeing 20 degrees for a while! Although after the last few days, we will probably like it being low 30's!
Anyway, I am going to go and watch tv, cause thats where our split system air con is!
