Trish that great your MIL is so excited & what a cute gift she brought.
B/fing class went well, Cookie is almost back up to birth weight & the LC is very happy with how we are feeding. She did show me a few little things which have made a huge difference already so i'm feeling a lot more confident now.
Also brought MJ a amber teething necklace which i'm praying helps. She looks very cute wearing it & so far isn't trying to rip it off.
Hi ladies! Wow it has been a long time since I was in here! I saw on facebook that Trish was having a perfect pink bundle and then wondered why I haven't spoken to everyone is so long.... (My computer wont let me see new posts unless it has been ages coming on here and the laptop is just a pain, so that is the only reason, sorry all).
Trish - I couldn't be happier for you, she will definately make your family complete.
Julia - Have a great time in Singapore! Ah how lovely, I am completely jealous!
Mo - Thats great to hear Cookie has put weight on so quickly. You must be a good milk maker! Great to hear you're more confident now with it all too.
A BIG hello to Amber, Kim, Willow, Kellie, Kazaraz,Saffi, Amelia and any one else I may have missed.
So a little update on us... Tiera has been teething terribly and been sick for a few weeks now which has not been fun at all!!! She's had a chest infection, runny nose, nappy rash, high temps, dribbling like crazy, whingey and miserable. The poor little munchkin. I haven't been to the gym in 3 weeks as she hasn't been well enough and has been very clingy. I hope all goes well and I'm back on Mon morning! Tiera has cut 7 teeth in a matter of two weeks, so no wonder she's been like this!!!
It feels like its been one thing after the other, Tiera being sick, DH's car breaking down, Tiera smashed our plazma and the dog has done some serious damage to his foot and we were told unless we could spend $3000 to fix him we'd have to put him down!!! Thank goodness now things are looking up... Tiera's getting better, got DH's car fixed, got the TV fixed (picked it up this afternoon) and the vet decided to do an experimental procedure on the dog at no cost to us, that so far seems to have been a succes. We wont know for another few weeks though, fingers crossed.
March seems to have dragged on for us as I'm sure April will too as so many of our friends have recently had bubbies (and some are still preg) and all we want is to finally start trying again for #2... May will be here soon! lol I wish I didn't have to be preg for 9 months, cuz I am really ready for another one right now. Kinda wish I had known that last year, would have dinfinately tried much much earlier! Anyways, its all good, all the more one on one time I have with my princess.
Well I really shouls be off. Time to start dinner. I will be back, sooner rather than lately, I promise.
Hey ladies,
I too have been lurking due to stupid computer problems and not wanting to use my work laptop to post.
Pish - I hear you on the TTC#2 and readiness thing. I am not quite ready yet, and am also enjoying time with DS, but lots of gals are on there way or have already had their second, which makes me realise that it is only about 5 months or so away until we will be TTCing! Glad to hear things are looking up for you, WTG Tiera, 7 teeth in 2 weeks, that's gotta be a record
Trin - I bought Caden one of those teething necklaces, and I believe that it helps, if nothing else it distracts him and looks SOOO cute on him!
Trish - CONGRATS on the pink bits! That is so lovely. I hear you on the not being disappointed if it was a boy, but it must be like the icing on the cake huh?
Everyone else - HI!
As for us, we looked at a block today. Very nice, I think I am in love. We are really starting to get excited, and our dream is coming closer to reality. There was this cool park nearby with an awesome flying fox that goes on for ages on this long cable, ducks and waterfalls, bbqs and gasebos, sandpits and trees! We played for a while and felt right at home. Now...we just need to make an offer ...oh, and sell our house!
Caden is sick, cranky last night and today he has the flu, right before I was about to get him the flu shot! Not to worry, all the better for the immune system I s'pose.
How r u all?? Well moving to mackay was the worst thing we ever did cause DH has been made redundant this week cause of this stupid financial crisis that is going on. We decided about 2 months ago that we would move back to Brisbane at the end of this month to make sure this didn't happen but they bet us to it!! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...................So now we have to break our lease here at this house and then re-rent in Brisbane which won't be hard cause my mum is a property manager but it is just the hassle of it all!! The house is all packed up besides the kitchen and our clothes, we I have packed most our clothes and I have just left out the weekly essentials with a few extras. DH is still working for his boss but now in the workshop but down to $30 per hour instead of $50 per hour!! Still money coming in so now so bad I suppose, but it doesn't help with rent of $550 per week!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh so stressful!! Does help my new high blood pressure that I have. Okay enough about me, now to some personals.....
TRISH - So happy you have a pink bundle on the way.....DH must have a knack for picking these things cause this is the 3rd one he has got correct!! Have you gone out and bought a whole lot of pink stuff yet??
JULIA - Have a fantastic time in Singapore....God what I would do to go to Singapore!!
TIFF - Tiera broke the plasma!! Ohhhh no....how much did that cost you too fix??!! I know what you mean about one thing after another....just seems to never end!!
AMBER - Hope ur comp is fixed soon!! When do you have your first scan??
MO - Cookie is so cute.....How is M going with all you attention on someone else??
Well that is all I can remember for now....Sorry for the vent ladies!!
Trish- congratulations on finding out you are baking a princess that is SO fantastic!!! glad all went well and she is nice and active for you!!
i know my MIL would go silly if we ever had a girl, cause we are her last chance, her DD1 cannot have children and DD2 has 2 boys and is done. so she had 4 grandsons i'd almost go as far to say if we had another & it was not a girl she'd be dissapointed.
Ty had another acco a few days ago. Pulled out tall standing mirror down ontop of himself. Got a huge shiner on his forehead but is so so lucky it wasnt worse. i thought he broke his hand cause it was squashed under when it fell. How on earth the glass or mirro didnt smash is a miracle and could have been fatal if it had. If he had of been 5cm to the right it would have fell directly on him and for certain would have knocked him out.
needless to say the mirror has been moved from the hall to our bedroom and the door is kept SHUT!
Monkey - sorry to hear about your dramas *hugs*. My DH was made redundant in December - Christmas Eve! It is not nice, and the payout doesn't go far. Perhaps there might be some additional compensation due to the extent of you moving? Might we worth talking to someone?
Nickers - kids can get up to such mischief can't they? I am glad he got away with just a shiner.
As for us, not much going on. Having a good weekend tho so far, had another look at "our block" that we want to put an offer in on and we still like it. Fingers crossed in the next few weeks we will be block owners...
DRAGONBUB - DH is going back to his old job cause they haven't replaced him as yet and have offered a pay rise which is even better. He worked/s for Star Track Express and they have a depot here in Mackay and they have a truck that hhas to go back to Brisbane for auction so DH is driving it back for FREE and FREE fuel too!! Better then paying $2k like we payed to get here.
Amelia that's great it wont cost you anything to move back home.
DB- Hope you get the block of land you want, sounds like a great area to raise your children.
Nic- So glad Ty wasn't seriously hurt. Must of been so scary for you.
Tiff-Not long till May now. Glad things are getting better for you now & poor Tiera cutting all those teeth so quickly.
Amber-How are going? I've missed you & hope now your comp is back you'll be posting more
Trish-How are things going with you?
Kaz-I hope you had a great birthday & the kids & Bruno spoiled you rotten!
Julia-How was your trip?
Saffi-Hope you, L & your little bundle are doing well. Have you got a named picked out yet?
Kellie & Willow hope you are your little ones are doing well.
AFU-Maddi is still giving us attitude but i think the necklace is helping her. She's actually calmed down a bit since she started wearing it.
Cookie is doing really well, she's gained 450g since leaving hossy, So i must be doing everything right with the b/fing!
