Ok here goes! I'm going to do my best to jump in and chat with you all!
Hi!!
First of all I'll rubbish on a bit...hehe. Louis and I had a huge day doing the shopping and then we had mothers group. Was all good but just a bit too hot for the both of us. He was sooo cranky tonight - hopefully he sleeps well. I must check his teeth tomorrow as he's been dribbling a bit and actually trying to chew a lot of things....Hopefully he has some more coming as so far he's only got 6!!!
Yael - Good luck with TTC!!! Sounds like you have lots of plans with study/work etc! Sounds great! Sounds like your little boy will be walking really soon! (yep -my boy loves to play with his "doody" as well! - hehe) Hope you had a nice day off!
Congrats on your weight loss! Hmmm I know when I've been at the gym pre p/g I would sometimes have an off day where you just feel fatigued...Maybe you're p/g though?? I was p/g and exercising (before I had tested) and I remember feeling really off so you just never know!!! hehe.
Yeah on winning your cupboards! I agree - it was super hot here in Melb today...
Tracey - Yeah on Jordan saying another word! I'm sure "mum" is just around the corner!!! Sorry to hear about dh being a poo. It's sooo hard...I know how much you must be wanting to ttc...hope he changes his mind soon but if not just remember it's not long to your holiday and then you can go crazy!!!
Wow on Jordan using the cd player!! Very clever!! he sounds gorgeous dancing around! hehe.
Hmmm you shouldn't have mentioned ice cream - I think I'm going to have to have some now - I only bought some today in the shopping...neopolitan...sprinkled with milo...yum!
Christie - Hi! Sorry to hear you're having a rough time with dh...I so know the feeling - in fact I've been complaining pretty much about the same stuff lately!! They just completely don't understand how tiring it can be running around after a little one - and carrying one too!! I hope you can work something out! You definitely shouldn't have to do all that stuff on your own though..I make dh bath Louis and get him ready for bed everynight just so I can tidy up the kitchen/house in peace before he goes to bed. I so need some quiet time to myself each night and if he does that it usually means I'll get it. Wow not long to go! I hope you go a bit earlier for your sake. I'm wishing the same thing actually! I had Louis at 38w so I'm hoping the same happens again...it's interesting I've been getting lots more braxton hicks this time around as well....
Tiff - Hi!
Becka - How embarrassing about dtd!! At least you could see the funny side...Oh no at being up at 4.30am - what are these bubbas thinking! hehe. Hope she sleeps in for you tomorrow! Sooo sorry to hear about your friends...how awful.
Nikki - Sorry to hear little Harry was so unsettled..Hope you ended up getting some rest! Umm I suppose if the formula helps him sleep then you should go for it! Are you getting enough rest/water/food to keep your supply nice and strong? (I know what you're like rushing around - hehe!) Always a good idea for dh to be able to help out with a feed as well!
So glad that dh is helping out so much!! It must be such a relief for you to have that extra bit of help!! Yeah! Good work! I must say I'll be interested to see how dh goes when I'm in hospital...I know he can look after Louis fine but I'll have to write a list of everything else that needs to get done in a day so I don't come home to a rubbish tip!
Danielle - Hi!
Missy - Hi! Callum sounds so cute with his monkey! Louis has blankets - we have 2 but he has to have them both in his cot at the same time! - and a dummy for bed. Sometimes he goes to grab his blankets out during the day but I always put them back...He's usually pretty good unless he's really tired in which case he needs to go to bed anyway! Good on you for being strong with it!
I do that too - clean up all the toys once at nighttime...I'm used to putting everything back in it's right little spot but I'm going put a big tub in the loungeroom soon so Louis can start getting used to just throwing all his books and toys in that. He's a pretty good little helper sometimes (although is easily distracted when putting toys away - LOL) but I figure I'll need all the help I can get when the next bubba arrives!
I wouldn't stress about Callums sleep. Every bubba is different - also they're getting so active now while they're up that I think they tire out a bit quicker!
Melissa - Hi!
Meg - Bugger about having such a bad nights sleep! Hope you get a better one tonight!!
Louis has a dummy as well - I'm not sure what age your even meant to get rid of it?? I'm thinking I'll do it when he's 2...He only ever has it for bedtime though and even then he usually spits it out once he's asleep...
Good luck with your health kick!
It is a big decision having another bubba - all I can say is space wise a 3 br home sounds great!!hehe. We're having our 2nd in a 2br unit so the after the initial first few months they'll be sharing together (yes, we'll all see how that pans out over the next 6m - hehe - nightmares ahead I'm sure) Good luck though!
Rach - Hi! Hope you had a nice lunch with your mothers group! oooh don't talk about wine - I have been craving a glass this whole summer!! By the time bubba arrives in April it will be cold and I won't feel like one either - hehe. Oh well - whats another year without alcohol?
Rachael - Bugger at having to get up at 5.30am! I hope he snaps out of that for you soon!!
Renee - Congrats on your p/g!!! How exciting having your scan - I would tell the u/s person to bugger off! Exactly as you said - what are you meant to do with your bubba? I've had Louis in all of mine - dh held him but he was still a wriggle monster and distracting....
Yeah at having a bubba free night! Enjoy your sleep in tomorrow!
Yep - Louis has been having 1 day sleep since about ...I can't remember - around 12 months anyway!! To start with he was a bit cranky at bedtime but there's no way I could get him to have 2 day sleeps now!! Mind you over xmas holidays he was going to bed at 7pm and sleeping in until 9-9.30am!!! (Bliss!!) His bedtime varies heaps - the earliest being around 10.30am and the latest being about 1pm (unless we get caught out or something)
Mmmmmh twisties! sounds good - although I think I'd end up with super bad heartburn if I ate them now! hehehe....
Sara - Sorry to hear about your tooth operations - sounds like it will be all for the better though?
Gobblygook - Hi! Glad to hear your little bubba is on the mend! Louis has 6 teeth as well (although I'm going to check for more in the morning! hehe)
Kate - Jasmine sounds gorgeous falling asleep anywhere! If only Louis was like that (although I shouldn't complain he goes to sleep pretty easily these days...)
Melinda - Hi! Hope you feel better soon!
Cindy - Sorry to hear Tori isn't a happy princess. I hope it doesn't develop into anything...So sorry to hear about your pelvic pain - that's going to be super hard not picking Tori up but it sounds like it's really important that you don't! Rest up as much as you can now (I know - easier said than done!)
Thats fantastic that you will be able to do the same swimming classes!! I asked when Louis went yesterday and I'm going to have to swap him next term to a thurs 5.30pm class (beats going on the weekend though) Dh will go in with him while I have Dylan and we've decided that will be our take away night as we'll be so late getting home..hopefully it works out ok and Louis won't be too tired going so late! Hope Playgroups fun!! Not long to go until you move! You must be getting excited - especially starting activites over there as well!
OMG - I've been writing this forever!! Sorry if I've missed anyone (although judging by the size of this post I shouldn't have! hehe)
