Hey Kell, how is everything going?
happy birthday Ruby - hope today is as special as you are little girl
Shiat on your FIL and not being able to see him Shell...how long do yo have to stay away from him for??
Hello veryone else...hope today finds you happy
Happy Birthday Ruby!!!I hope you have had a fantastic day.
Kell - I cant believe that Keira is 6 weeks old already! Jesse is the next 2 year old?
Shell - I normally work 3-5 days a week but I had an interview today for a new job and I am now perm-part time for 28.5 hours a week. So I will now be 5 days a week. I will try and get Tiana in 2 days at daycare starting after her op and just stick with my sisters having her on thurs-fri. Gotta love this working thing!! And about John being away ask me again on Thurs, I dare say that I will be ready to tear my hair out!!!
how was everyones fathers day?
Marni - Nope Savanna (Ambz's daughter) has her b'day tomorrow. What date is Tiana's b'day? I'm just updating my list :D
Shell.. hey hun! Yeh all going pretty good. Jesse is back to his old self since his gastro saga, thank goodness. Though hes waking several times through the night now moaning. Dont know whats up. But when i go in and tuck him back in he stops and is asleep. Hows your pregnancy going? Very fast i see!
Marni.. oh i know, i cant believe it myself. Boy the time goes fast! Yeh Savanna snuck in by a few hours before Jesse :)
Heya all. Hope you all had a lovely fathers day.
Keira is doing really well. Very settled baby now shes on the Infacol! Sleeping roughly from 9.30pm until 5am every night.. so very happy with that! If i could only get Jesse to sleep through now! Since the gastro he's been waking moaning every night. He's also had 3 of his 4 2yr molars come through in that time too so i dont think that helps.
Hes sleeping in his big bed now during the day. Not game as yet to put him in there over night. Still dont think hes ready and would understand he has to stay in there all night.
Well must go start getting dinner ready.
Hi to everyone and hope you are all well!
mum3 - Tiana is the 22 sept.
Does anyone else feel as though our children were only little tiny bubbas yesterday? I am having whole conversations with Tiana now and dont know how she got to be so big and clever?
HAPPY 2nd BIRTHDAY RUBY!!
happy belated :happybirthday: to Rylee and Ruby :)
Happy birthday Ruby and Rylee!
Sorry for those b'days I have missed girls. I havent been so well l ately. How do you look after 2 kids or more I dont know. Im trying to organise a little b'day party for Julia too for this weekend.
Sending you all hugs

Marni- I know time goes so fast, midwife at my appt today remembered me from last time and couldn't believe already 2 years had past!
Kell- Yeah Ash wakes some nights and all I do is rub her back and she is asleep again, just hate having to get out of a nice warm bed! Kiera is sleeping great the infacol drops can be quite handy.
Marni- Good luck with getting the new job, what do you do? I work 2 days week after #2 might have to up it to 3 days, we'll see how we are going.
Maz- We just have to stay away til we properly recover from our colds, just to be safe cause a cold/ flu for us can be dangerous for someone on chemo.
Had my midwife appt today, took her ages to find bubs heartrate cause it just kept moving, she couldn't stop laughing at how much it was flipping around in there, I'm thinking no wonder I feel sick all the time its stirring up my tummy, lol. But all seems good.
Belle- we posted same time. sorry you are unwell, is it physical thing or PND? I hope you start feeling better. I'm already wondering how I can look after 2 when this last week I've struggled with just Ash. Good luck organising party, we're just gonna have BBQ for Ash's nothing big only few family and close friends.
Shell - thats great re your appt! areyou finding out what you are having? yeah its my PND hon really bad at the moment, I was going to check myself into hospital thankfully I saw my psychologist and got Julia into daycare more days and mum is helping too. I have seen my GP this morning upped my meds and going to see a psychiatrist I cant do this anymore without getting rid of the issues. I feel like failure thought I wouldnt get it again as I was ok before birth and now im a mess again. Guess im just unlucky.
Nah Belle, I reckon you're doing really well mate, I don't remember you talking so openly last time - to me, you've come a long way and it seems like you're doing really well! You're totally not a failure.
By the way, it's not you - more than 1 kid is TRICKY! Tara's still quite young too, we're approaching 6 months here, and the older Si gets, the more fun 2 kids is. Definitely hugs props to all those who do it without extra friends/family support though. I do wonder what my mental state might have been if I didn't have family at my beck and call...:think:
How was the day Caddie? Ruby have fun?
Just baked some fresh bread, it smells sooooo good! Not sure what to have on it...
mmmm, freshly baked bread. I could really do with some of that Nelle.
belle honey, I can't say it better than Nelle. It is hard work having a baby and toddler. Tara is young still, so you're still at that stage where you're trying to get into a routine of some sort. Julia will be out of sorts for a while as well due to Tara's arrival. It's great to hear that you've been able to get Julia into daycare an extra day. Ring me ANYTIME you need to talk ok. I'm always here. Even if I'm running around trying to organise the girls, I'm here to talk. :hug: You are not alone.
Belle- Don't feel like a failure, you should be proud that you acknowledge that you aren't feeling right and have gone out and got help. You're doing a fantastic job with those 2 gorgeous girls.
Belle- def hard work with 2 kids, you are doing great...
My theory is only do what needs to be done.. as long as i have fed, clean, healthy and happy kids then i dont care what my house looks like.. (too bad my landlords do :lol:)
Well this house goes on the market in december and I have no idea how i am meant to keep it in display condition...
Belle - You are doing a great job. You have two beautiful girls and you love them and they are fed and cared for. You dont have to do anything else - except look after yourself. I know how it feels to feel like a failre again. I have just been put back on meds and told not to go off again but just remember that you love your girls and are a fantastic mum!! If you want to talk you are welcome to add me to msn. marni83@hotmail.com
Bea - Good luck with the dislay condition thing. My house reguarly looks like a bombsite!!
Shell - I work in retail. I love it and think that I am a better mum when i get home from work. It is really hard to fit everything in though.
Kell - Tiana has been in a big bed since 14months and will sleep there. However lately she will only sleep with me to even go to sleep. SO I sleep with her and daddy sleeps in her bed... Dont really know how to fix that?
Have a great day all.
Happy Brithday Savannah!!!
Happy Birthday Savannah!!!!
:happybirthday: Happy 2nd Birthday Savanna!!!! :cheer:
Happy Birthday Savannah, hope you have a great day!
Well things here are....well interesting. Having twins is hard. I am not sleeping and am constantly sore. I have my growth scan next week, to check that they are growing well and to check my cervix length. Sorry I havent been on much or do many personals, I cant really sit for long and my attention span is not really long or my memory good due to being tired. I have put on 8.4kgs so far, so going well.
MrsT-I hope that Alexander is recovering well.
Marni-Incase I am not back on in time, I will be thinking of you and Tiana when she has her operation. Big brave cuddles for you and Tiana.
Hope you are all doing well.
ETA:OMG the cat just did a huge poo and I cant change the kitty litter. It stinks, I think all the windows are going to be opened and the airspray used, eeek.....I'm going to be sick......
:happybirthday: Savannah!!!!
:happybirthday: Happy 2nd Birthday Savannah!!! :happybirthday:
My house is a constant bombsite, but I'm learning to ignore it :D Good luck keeping it clean ness!
helen - wow, look at how far along you are already! I know how exhausting it is carrying one baby, I take my hat off to you for managing twins, plus having a toddler and kidlet (didn't know what other nickname to call Bella! lol)
kel - Nina has been in a big bed since 15 months, and we've never had a problem with her getting out. She's always slept in her bed. I think you have to do it though when they're ready though. And with Keira just arriving 6 weeks ago, he might still be a little out of sorts. A friend of mine's son just turned 2 and they won't be putting him in a big bed anytime soon as he's just not ready.
nelle - what did you end up putting on your fresh bread? I thought about homebaked bread all night last night.
Time to put Nina to bed (that's if she decides to sleep today). It's raining here ATM, which is great as we haven't had rain for aaaaaaaaages. Pity it doesn't cool the place down though.
oh, and we picked up our new car last Friday. We ended up getting a Rav4 with heaps of extras chucked on. It's awesome :D
Happy birthday Savannah!
Happy birthday Savannah!
Jodi- yay, I love getting new car, i actually enjoy driving more when its all new to me. Hope Nina sleeps for you.
Helen- I been whinging about how exhausted I been feeling and nausea still and now I think I have nothing on you! If I feel this crappy you must be feeling double crappiness. Hope you are able to get yourself some rest in in the day.
Yay on the new car Jodi! What colour? What extras? How fun!
We just had butter. It was so good, despite the fact that Rans cut slices as thick as Arctic ice. Filling! I've got another loaf on now...ahhh new appliance novelty. :P
Hang in there to all the preggy ladies, before you know it you will have your babies and you will be *sob* pulling out the 00 clothes.
Helen, just put the whole tray outside mate.
Hope you and Savannah are having a good day Ambz!
I mean to say Kell, Riv's been in a big boy bed for awhile, and he sleeps with his bedroom door shut. He's often getting up, having a play, and then falling asleep again. I haven't bothered to make sure he stays in bed all night. He has a rug in his room that he often sleeps on (near his door, he lies there and watches feet under his door), this morning he was asleep on his bed but sideways (it's actually a bed with the castors taken off, so it's ground level). If he's making too much noise, we'll go in and re-put him to bed, so he know it's either sleeping or playing quietly enough that we don't go in. :P
Both boys asleep...ahhhh....mmmm....what a sacred special moment hey...
nelle, it's a charcoal colour. And we got put on it, tinted windows, mags, bullbar, towbar, light protectors. And it comes with a sunroof too :D We got an awesome deal with Toyota, saved about 6k.
I might look into getting a bread maker, it would definitely come in handy. Which brand did you get, and how much are they?
Well. I was thinking about buying one, but found out that a local breadmaking shop (how cool!) hires them out for free, just a deposit that I'll get back when I return it. I've got a small Breville one at the moment, it makes 750g and 1kg loaves. I'm trying to grill everyone I know with breadmakers, to find out what brand and model they have and if they like it or not. Sounds like many people buy them and don't use them, so I bet they can be gotten from ebay pretty cheaply too.
The Breville and Sunbeam sites have the rrps on them. I think the bigger Sunbeam one looks good, but I'll see... :)
Charcoal, that's a cool colour. How fun to have a new car!!
I have such a whingy baby today...think he's teething but aargh! He's just so hard to please today.
Nelle- i have grumpy baby too.... She has sleep for all of a hr today.. I so want to sleep.
Jodi- yay on the car!!!
yumm on the fresh bread.. i love a herb loaf so so yummy.
I'm gonna be offline for awhile so -
:happybirthday: Wishing Jesse a wonderful 2nd Birthday for tomorrow!!!
hey guys just thought i would share some pictures
My girls
Yeh i think every kids is differnt when it comes to those sort of things (big bed etc). I just know Jesse and know he wont stay in there and will just come out after a few hours and think thats it, time to get up now. I could try what you do Nelle and just shut the door. Though still at the moment, both him and i are still quite sleep deprived from his gastro that yeh i think ill wait also, like Jodi said.. still all early days with Keira. Im not in a big hurry though. Will wait until hes really ready. CHN also recommended that and said some kids are still in their cot until theyre 3 and it may delay the task if he isnt ready. Thanks anyways.. will just see what happens.
Jodi.. woohoo on the new car!!
Belle.. big :hug: hun. Just take it easy.
Shell.. oh really re Ash waking. Yep the infacol is great!
Well this time 2 years ago i was in a ***** load of pain!!!!! I went into labour at 2.30pm the day before and he was born at 1.21am the next morning. Wow. Kinda brings a little tear to my eyes. Even though alot of it is a blur, i can still remember holding him and his little eyes looking up at me saying WTF just happened! What a long way we've come in such a short time. My first born, little baby.. is growing into such a beautiful big boy.
:happybirthday:
Happy Birthday Jesse!!

Bea - Your girls are gorgeous. I love the pics!
Hey ladies!
Just a quick pop in. Mum and dad are on their way down to spend the day with us for Jesse's birthday.
Thank you for all his happy birthday wishes!
Would you believe it.. the day we want him up at 6am so DH can see him open his presents, he sleeps in! lol.. well not really, cos we woke him up But he was so excited to see all his presents. He got a lawn mower and chain saw, a bus, a plane and a video now dvd player thing (lol which is more for mummy, in hopes it will keep him quiet at the shops!!). So hes had a great morning playing with his new toys! He also got a tractor from his mate Isaac yesterday that he had to take to bed with him last night!! He's big into tractors at the moment so it was perfect. And also an awesome Diego throw blanket from Nessa and her girls!! He screamed his head off when he saw it! Was so funny.
Anyways best run before they get here.
Thanks agian and have a great day!
