Hi all!
Thats great nelle! and i bet he did say stairs. They always say the hard stuff first.lol
I went to kingspark today for a BB meetup. Only 4 went but it was nice to meet 2 new people.
Millana got a boyfriend.This little boy about the same age just came up to her wanting to hold hands and was telling everyone she was his girlfriend.It was so sweet. Millana was devistated when we left and has just told me we must go back to kings park to her best freind. This is at 4. Whats going to happen later...oh dear.lol
Caddie - I think you might need to buy a shoot gun
nelle - you are so going to regret the day riv starts talking...trust me. Both my boys were late talkers...I had NIkolaus in speech therapy at 3 and now I cant shut the pair of them up...as for VY...She skips around singing...the girls on something I swear!
Trying to clean up before the inlaws arrive tomorrow for Nikolaus' baptism. Im pretty nervous..shiating myself to be honest..I dont want to stuff his day up. Jed and I bought him a gold necklace with a cross on it...Ruddy money couldnt have come at a better time for it
Will take pics and show of I mean share them with you tomorrow

Caddie- ahh the joys of the birds and the bees lol
well I am ending my bf journey with MJ atm.. slowly cutting feeds out.. had a good run but omg i am over the biting and pinching and well i have given it a month and its not getting any better, she has spilt my nipple.
so have decided the time has come.. luckily she is taking the bottle well. she has one bottle then boob alternate feeds atm..
and omg we have had a horrible day.. Teleah has spilt her head open... pretty badly.. so has butterfly clips on it.. will post pics shortly. She hit her forehead on the cnr of a wall and the wall is dented pretty bad so you could imagine her poor head. here is the Wall and here is her Head
Maz- good luck for Nikolaus day tomorrow, im sure it will go well
ETA: was posting at same time as Meg and Annat
Meg- ahh kids like to push us when we are down.. dont feel bad, you are doing your best
Caddie - How cute,
Now i know nothing that was in the last thread!
I have had a terrible day. Glucose test this morning that made me feel ill, and J has been SO TERRIBLE all day. he has had a few busy/late nights this week, and today he was just a monster. DH took him to swimming, and J kept hitting him, then at home he smooshed his lunch into a pile and threw it on the ground. He refused to have a rest/sleep and kept screaming and crying out for me. Then this afternoon he kept throwing his toys at me. I don't know how many times I put him in the naughty corner. Then he ate his dinner, and wanted a bit more, so I gave him some more that he starting smooshing again, and throwing it. Well I had had enough by this point, and he ended up in big trouble!!! After spending a lengthy time in the naugty corner he had a shower.
So at bed time, I was trying to dress him, and he was kicking, and rolling and screaming at me. Back in the naughty corner and straight to bed with no book. I lost it for a bit nad ended up leaving him screaming in the family room for a bit.
I am just so tired.
He has been waking a bit in the night since being so busy, as he is just overtired. and we have a few more things to come with the lead up to Christmas. I don't know how I am going to go wen I have 2 to deal with!
Meg - all I can say is big hugs. I have one of those toddlers too, full time, I cant even go shopping anymore without mega issues. So not like Jett but must be the age. Im crapping my pants about having 3 in April, I live for my shopping trips because I dont have any friends here so its only interaction I get with the outside world. Dont feel bad about leaving him cry, we do it with Jett, better than screaming at them. Sometimes I want to scream and smack him because I get so mad and frustrated (clarifying - not that I do, I never smack in anger) Just remind yourself that it wont last, one day they will develop reasoning skills!
Maz - good luck for tomorrow, you'll be fine! What an exciting day for Nikolaus! Ive been there done all that catholic stuff, its pretty straight forward if only a bit long winded
Meg - You will be fine. You are a good mum and that is all you will need to learn to deal with your two babies. There will be times you will want to give them away (or run away yourself) but just remember that looking back the good times always seem to outweigh the bad with children!! (At least that is what I keep reminding myself of...)
AnnaT - Your belly is gorgeous!
Maz - Good Luck! I am sure it will be a fantastic day!
Laurin - Congrats again! I hope Riley adapts quickly for you. Does she love him though and want to cuddle him lots?
Caddie - First little boyfriends are cute! It wont be the same in ten years though! lol
Well all I have to say about work is dont you just love retail at Christmas?! Tiana is going well with tt. She would be better if I was more consistent though!
Have a great weekend everyone! Sorry I forgot what was said in the other thread.
Oh my freakin god Ness poor Teleah! Poor you as well! I hope she is behaving now and not in too much pain (she looks chuffed in the pic though lol) I thought we'd have a similar issue the other day out doing groceries, Jett was in the trolley and leant up onto the conveyor belt at checkout. Dh told him to get off or he'd get in trouble, he didnt but Dh thought he did and pulled the trolley back - OMG he want diagonally face first into the floor and screamed like a banshee. I nearly died and yelled at Dh whilst trying to pick up a very heavy toddler. The whole store stared. I thought for sure he'd have done damage but nope, very minor bruise on his forehead/cheek and none the worse for wear. Their enough to give you grey hair these kids arent they
Lol you girls are indeed insane.lol
Though im feeling kind of the same as my two girls have been drama queens all day. One minute its laughing hysterically,the next tantrums!
No probs chrissy.Glad you liked it and yours will be evn better. Just wait for aussie post tommorow
BOTH of us on the naughty chair?? I guess we'll go a cheek each then?
Caddie you ARE insane, I don't think the post comes on Saturdays...
Chrissy a scrapbook sounds like a great idea. Sucks that his parents haven't taken time for you, but I'd like to think that my daughters in law would do something lovely for me, even if I'm not the greatest In Law or a bit selfish or self absorbed (I'll try to be a GOOD inlaw though!). I think you're doing a lovely thing.
Just got back from a spot of shopping...can't love my mum enough for all the babysitting she does...honestly, she's fricking brilliant. She's sitting tomorrow too, we have a wedding on. WHO gets married at 9:30 in the morning?? So now I have something to wear. STILL have much much much Christmas shopping to do. I think next Friday might be my night...
Posties usually do Saturday delivery leading up to Christmas, but not this year unfortunately.
9.30 in the morning nelle, that's so early! Who would even have the time to get ready at that hour. The bride would have to get up at 3am and start getting her hair and make up done
chrissy - what a lovely thing for caddie to do! Good on you caddie. Did either of you scan it, or take pics of it? What a shame they don't have anything to do with you. Have they seen the kids at least since Craig's passing?
We've got Heath's Christmas party to go to tomorrow night, and I bought a new dress for it. AND, it's a size smaller than what I'm usually Which is making me feel very sexy, especially with my new hair colour.
Nina fell asleep in front of the tv at 8pm tonight. I was cleaning up the kitchen, and looked in, and she was lying on the floor asleep. So cute. I'm loving that she isn't having a day sleep anymore, she's going down at night so much easier.
Parcel delivery always happens here on Saturdays, Sunday was the extra day they put on leading up to Christmas.
Maz - I hope Nik's baptism went well.
Chrissy
Me - Well, I have a huge rant built up inside of me, just typed it out, then figured, well now I have to edit it - so now I'm even more peed off. Yay!!!!
Hello to all, not in the mood to keep posting right now, so I'll just send you all my love and be on my way (hmmm....thinking it might be a good time to get out the boxing bag)
