Can't believe it's Christmas tomorrow. I am so freaking excited this year....only because Maxy is! I wanna bottle his excitement and keep it for me for ever and ever!
Saffi I spent 2 hours wrapping Max's presents yesterday, as well as my own and can't wait for him to open them all tomorrow morning. They might be young, but I really do think they get it in some way. Every day I've been giving Max something in his advent calendar. Been telling him that father Christmas only comes when he is asleep and he gets so excited in the morning when he sees the chocolate wrapper (choc has to be left in the fridge!) with a note on it from FC saying what a good boy he'd been the day before and that he got this chocolate because.....blah blah! P.S Leather couches are the bomb...don't know how I ever lived with a fabric one (so gross!)!!!
Kaz I hope you feel better now. You've really had a hard time with this pregnancy. A bladder infection that spreads to your kidneys is really painful...that's what my friend had to go to hospital for when she was here visiting (spent the whole time there) and was on the IV drips etc. She was not in a good way, and she didn't have a baby growing in her to boot. You don't have long now till your little blue bundle is out and you can have your body back! I hope 2010 is a better one for you and your family on the illness front x
Trish WOW your big boy going to school. I can feel your pain/happiness all rolled into one! I'll be such a blubbering mess the day Max heads off to anything for a day without me! I find it hard to let him go now as it is! Can't wait to see him in a school uniform though! What a proud moment that will be! I love seeing the pics of Alana and the boys on FB.....they are all so gorgeous. I sure do remember the 4 month sleep regression....I thought I had an angel baby till that 4 months hit!!! Luckily I had all of you to go through it with!!
Pish How are you feeling? Wow two little bubbas for you to look at! I gawk at tiny babies when I see them here and just think...WOW I'm going to have another one come mid next year! If your friends little bubba was 6lb when born 4 weeks early I bet he would have been a big one full term! I was only 6lb 12oz born......shame I never stayed a small petiete person!! I can share your undies joy too! Max is going so well....he now tells me when he needs to do wee's AND poo's and can sleep his entire day sleep in undies with NO accidents. I don't know how it happened but I'm not knocking it!
I'll Be back to finish my post.....Max wants to go and see stimpy our friendly 'feral' cat!
hi ladies,
I know I have been so slack in here, but just wanted to jump on quickly and wish you all a very Merry Christmas! Hope you all have a wonderful day with your beautiful families!
and stay safe on the roads!
Julia - I agree with you about bottling their Christmas excitement, its so adorable!
Hope you all have a wonderful day tomorrow! Thank you all so much for all your love support and friendship over the last year and looking forward to all the new babies and pregnancies in the new year! xxxx
Well I clearly got a bit distracted and didn't get to come back!
Hope you all had a great day yesterday. Ours was great. A bit of a battle with the afternoon downpour but it passed quickly. Max was great and had his little friend Luella to play with which kept him going all night (then he promptly crashed at about 10pm)
Food was delicious but missed the company of the close family! Next year maybe huh!?
Trish - no names picked yet, nothing has really jumped out at me! Any suggestions on what goes well with Tahlia!
Mo - woo hoo on Kodi standing by herself, she'll be running around in no time! Sorry to hear about your mum
Kaz - hopefully its only a 4 week wait for you then, you poor thing!
AFU - Tahlia is going well, been very spolit this week as DH and I have been home from work so we have done heaps of stuff, zoo Monday, park Tuesday, pool Wednesday and friends over yesterday.
I am going well too, getting pretty tired but thats to be expected I guess! And I hate being pregnant in this heat! Bubs is moving around lots which is nice too!
Our holiday was good, it was so nice spending Christmas with my sister, niece & nephews.
We had a pretty good drive, both girls did better than we thought, tho next time we will most likely fly. Much less stressful!.
We never made it to QLD as Phil's step grandpa passed away Dec 22nd from cancer. At least he isn't in pain anymore.
Maddi is my little parrot, she's always telling Kodi "In a minute" when K wants her toy & "Kodi be a good girl". She basically replaces Maddi with Kodi it's quite funny hearing her talk to Kodi in the same way i talk to her.
K is doing great no more shaking episodes & is growing up way to fast. I can't believe she'll be 1 in 3 months.
As for my Mum it's heartbreaking that she doesn't remember me, i called the nursing home on Christmas day & she keep saying she has no daughters etc... I spent most of Christmas night crying.
I knew it would happen, but you just can't imagine how much it hurts till it happens.
Kellie, Sounds like you have had a ball this week. I know what you mean by being pregnant in the heat. I hated it with Kodi.
Kaz i hope your feeling better today. FIngers crossed that the Dr's bring baby V into the world a week earlier for you.
Saffi how is Immi doing? Is L loving being a big brother?
Trish hope you guys are having a lovely time away.
Amber, Willow, Julia, Tiff & anyone else i missed i hope your doing well
Mo - I can only imagine how you must be feeling. No consolation to say at least your Mum is not aware.
L loves being a big brother I think. He is very attentive towards M and gives her kisses and cuddles. L is being a parrot too. He is copying a lot of whay DH says. Its so funny.
M is going well. She's almost 5 months and we intend to start solids at 6 months. No teeth as yet. Still not a great sleeper and her night sleeps have regressed lately. I'm wondering if I should do some sleep training with her. With any luck she'll be starting daycare in March and I am wondering if I should have some kind of sleep routine established by then.
