Sorry ive been a bit awol lately.
Jesses been sick, then i was sick, now hes sick again..
Have started medication for my anxiety. Was getting bad anxiety and panic attacks about Jesse throwing up. Seems to be slowly making a difference which is great.
Jesse had his orientation day for preschool yesterday. Hes still not 100% but he loved playing there. His first day is tomorrow so will be interesting. Is going to be sad not having him there all day but will be nice to have 1 on 1 with Keira.
Nelle.. have pmed you the girl recipe we used for Keira.
Jodi.. i saw Nina's video of her dancing and singing on facebook.. shes so cute! Its great to see them in videos, you kind get a better look at what they are like other than in photos iykwim.
Oh i wish you girls could send some of that rain down our way.. is going to be 40 here today.
Marni.. ive been going through problems with anxiety lately also. If you ever need to chat im here ok. Have you seen your doctor about it? I went and saw mine the other week. Shes put me on some meds and they seems to be working pretty good so far.
We'll be trying for #3 towards the end of the year.. so theres a similar age gap as there is with Jesse and Keira. I love their age gap. Jesse has been so good and gentle with Keira. He really really loves her. As shes starting to move more hes loving her more as soon she'll be able to play with him. Re the sex.. i would like a little boy for my last.. but in saying that im really not phased which sex we get. So yeh not sure if we'll try a boy recipe or just go with the flow.
Good to hear from you Marni, and great that Tiarna is doing well with TT. J told me today that he needed to go to the loo, and got most of it in the potty, so that's a start. he is calling both wees and poos, "poo" so I never know which one he actually needs to do.
Kell - It is good that you are being proactive about the anxiety, and taking steps towards making yourself better.
I still have anxieties around J's eating and general development. (I can just see maz now saying "Megan he is fine!!") In fact the last few days he has eaten like a sparrow, but I am trying to remain calm, and just go with it. Lot less stress for us both, and like many have said, he will not starve.
Shell - I too am feeling the heat today. Not liking it at all. That's how I wonder how you tropical girls cope being preg in the heat!
AnnaTA - I was just thinking about you. This preg seems to be going much better for you than your last.
Meg, Riv (aka the toddler vacuum) has started to get a bit picky too at times. I've noticed that he's ravenous while he gets taller, but then will pick at food for a while afterwards. There's food there for him, so he will never go hungry.
And still not talking, though he says something that sounds like mum, and loves to yell GOOOOOOOOOO! and then run somewhere. Think that's from racing my dad places.
His room looks like a prison cell at the moment, there's just a bed. Oh and some toys, guess that's not very prison-cell like. Because he kept piling things up and climbing. He was climbing on a toy trolley last night and switching his light on and off. Way to get his trolley confiscated anyway.
Nelle- Lol, maybe you have the next aussie stuntman in the making!
Meg- Maybe too with the heat he just doesn't have much appetite, I'll join Maz and say he is fine Megan! The heat is so much harder being preg I'm really feeling it even on days that are warm but not overly hot.
Kell- Good to hear from you. Its good you took steps to work on the anxiety and starting to feel improvements. Good luck with Jesse first day tomor, prolly be harder for you than him. Its great he is so good with Keira.
Jodi- Poor Nina, Ash has funny bad dreams, one night she woke crying for more ice-cream, another night she was babbling on about Dora! Hope your feeling better.
Sad news, that friend that had m/c little while back that I mentioned was preg again and looks like another m/c, shes been having spotting and her levels are quite low for 4.5 weeks. I'm praying that maybe she got her dates wrong and the spotting is nothing to worry about, she of course is upset and worries about ttc again if she has to go thru it for a 3rd time. I don't know what to say or do for her.
Good news, a couple we're friends with had a baby boy today, going to see him Friday, wish I didn't have to work tomor cause I want cuddles now.
hi ladies hope you and your families are all well!
been sick for a while now and so have the kids
ive been so exhausted ... got soo much house work to do! arghhh
on a good note my little Tiarna can now climb onto the couch. she climbs up and then runs around on the couch and gives me multiple heart attacks haha... hmm i dont know if its a good note now??? but its so cute and she is just soo cheeky.
got a busy week ahead.. the pergola and paving are gettin done yayyyy and the kiddies playground too
ive still gotta organise our house warning and tia's bday .
It is hard to believe that so many of you now have 1 year olds as well as our Sept bubs/ Where has time gone??!
I am doing some serious nesting here. This morning I have vac'd the floor, and mopped, cleaned both bathrooms, changed the sheets. Then went into bubs room and sorted some clothes, while J "helped" me. Also worked out what to take to hossy for bub as well. Her room is really nearly ready now. Just got to get some nappies. (not doing cloth on newborn) and that's about it. Oh, and I suppose I should put together the nappy bag. My cousin still has the crandle, but I am getting it off her in a week or two. It all seems to organsied. What am I missing??
Shelll have ytou packed your hossy bag yet? I have only half packed mine. Still using everything.
Meg- you are so organised! I'm so slack this time, I reakon I'll be packing my bag in labour! We've done nothing, spare room still full crap, still gotta go thru Ash's old clothes and sort girl ones to uni sex ones, clean and set up all stuff- bassinet, cahnge table etc. Only got 39 days til due date!
Ambz- Hope yr all feeling better, when is Tia's birthday?
