I agree with lil p. Vy is just getting soo grown up and even more gorgeous. I see little girls clothes everywhere and go all gooey. I just wish I had enough money to buy them for all of you girls with girls. But I must admit I am soo happy to have a lil boy.
Mel-ugh I cant beleive he wasnt home for your christmas party. tutut.
Love
Well...Dh's hey...for someone who doesn't swear, I am miiiighty tempted cos Rans is being a FREAKING LOOOOOSER! He's so lucky I was holding Riv at the time otherwise I reckon he'd have a black eye. I can't believe that I am full time with Riv 5 days a week and weekends are supposed to be HIS turn to take care of Riv, who won't settle tonight and what do I get from my husband snoozing on the couch? 'I'm sooo tired'. What the?? Okay, so he's been for a suit fitting and Christmas shopping today, but I've had the boy all day and been out too! AAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGHHHHH! :mad:
Eurrgh, what a jerk.
I yelled at him til he got up from the couch and changed Riv's nappy and put him to bed again. Still, I can hear Riv fussing (though he'll probably be okay seeing as I fed him again) and Rans is in bed. Okay he's quiet now.
AND I get so annoyed when Riv cries and Rans just goes in and pops in a dummy and then a minute later when he cries Rans says I just settled him, he'll go to sleep. Wouldn't hurt him to take 5mins away from the couch/tv...
Okay, you can all come out from behind wherever you were hiding, normal cheerful Nelle is back now :P
I agree girls, how much are our little ones growing up! It's unbelievable how much they're growing and changing! I can't believe some of them are 4 months already! Whoa!!!
Caddie that's wonderful that Aaron helps with the dishes and stuff, Rans used to be so good but I don't know what's happened..might have a chat with him when he's stopped hating my guts from yelling at him.
Thank goodness for Christmas, I'm watching the Carols in the Domain on tv and it's really cheering me up, I've been catching myself singing along, lol!
Might go light some candles before it's finished!
My two uncles had their properties burned (but only their investment paddocks where they kept some meat cows) but not all burned and I think most of the cows are okay. And the fire went in a paddock next to one of my uncle's houses but missed the house! Though someone nicked their water pump thing...who does that? And my Gran's got burned leaves falling from the air in her farm. Glad they're all safe though.
Well, later girls, tomorrow is a new day and I'm praying it will be a wonderful one for all of us :hug: xo
morning girls, just checked my lotto results, didnt win a million this week,bummer, i was going to shout us all a weekend away, maybe to new zealand, so our hubbys cant get us back, when all the bubs give them the sh**s, oh well maybe next week ill win..........wishful thinking.
Have a great relaxing sunday, i desperatly need to lose weight this week!
Chrissy - Ive decided that it weight loosing time so Jed can Jealous when other guys look at me. pay backs are a b'artch!
Oh New Zealand sounds so nice..ahhhhhh.
Taking the kids out shopping today so I can spend a **** load of Jed's money.
Thanks for your comments about my little princess guys. She really makes my heart melt at the moment. She woke up at 4 and had a feed. Afterwards she came into bed with me and we both fell alseep snuggling. then at 7.30 I feel this little arm around me and Wilhelm has snuck in and cuddled up. I love moments like this, pitty they dont happen often enough.
Have a wonderful day girls, im thinking of you all
xxmaz
Your photos look great maz,i can see the dark bits at the end.Way cool mumma!
And the xmas photo of the kids is lovely.Millana wouldnt go near santa!
Chrissy a trip to new zealand! that would be fab.Its a pity someone who was rich couldnt fly us together for a meet up.Mybe if we stay together long enough current affair will get us together for an interveiw and pay.
Adele,you only 22 woman.Half your luck.hope riley is feeling better today.
I am off to my nephews 5th birthday party today. It'll be Ashleigh's first party she's been invited to.
Isn't nice we all have each other to vent to. Df knows now when I get really cranky he needs to lift his game and he does for awhile then starts slacking off again and I get ****ed again! At least now he is on school holidays so he'll be expected to lift his game big time, I told him I'm having 3 sleep in a week which is moer than fair, he gets the 4 and otherwise he can get up early with me everyday.
Hey where is everyone today? I'm back from the party. My sister made the best cake, it was a train, had 4 carriages and all, from those kids cake books. No need to pay heaps money for a cake with her around, she'll be making all Ashleigh's.
James had a fantastic day and had a hold of Ashleigh and was so excited and said afterwards "I did it!" He's so cute.
Chrissy- I would love to win lotto, would help if I entered, I always plan to.
Nelle- Is good to hear your family is safe, those fires are terrible and can you believe that there were idiots that started that other one? They should be locked up for life.
Jed cam ehome and I let rip. He didn't even apologise so I went off my nut again. He's tredding really carefully now....even happy to try at christmas time next year..defently! Hmm big suck he is.
Shell - great to hear that the party went well. It is quiet in here today..everyone must be making babies..lol.
Cr@p beter go visitors...

re AF and BF everyone is different my sister has been BF her 3rd son now since august 2005 he didn't start solids till 7mths anyway she got AF at 7 weeks PP and has had one every 30-40 days since poor girl
also gap between siblings, my sister has 4 years between son #1 and #2 but only 23mths between #2 and #3 she said she much prefers the last gap, they are happy playing together etc, but at same time Ethan was old enough to understand mummy had to feed Isaac etc
my sister and I are 21 mths apart and we fought like cats and dogs growing up but we also had a lot of the same friends and now we are good friends :)
Sharleen-Great to hear that the baptism went well. OMG at being up since 3.30am. I think I was feeding Eithan in bed then.
Maz-mmmm a bit of a suck up to you wont hurt. Shame he cant apologise though.
Rach-Wow what a good boy Jack has been for you. Lucky husband.
Shell-Glad that you enjoyed the party.
Well Bella is unwell and Eithan's asleep and Leith is working overtime tonight. I just hope I can manage to get them both in bed early so that I can do some wrapping of presents.
How is everyones chrissy shopping going. We finally went to the vineyard and got a bottle for us and both lots of parents. Sun I have be down at the wharf by 8am to get a crayfish for my parents. Then I have to make a pav and a cheesecake to take to places on chrissy day. I just cant wait to spend time with family. Sooo excited.
Hope you are all well.

hi girls, just read all your posts.. but my brain is verrrrrry dead. we had christmas on friday night as DH will not be here christmas day. was a wonderful night and ainsleigh was spoilt rotten. then last night we had a christmas party, and i have to say, i was the culprit the same as all your DH's. Sam went home with the kids at about 11pm, and I stayed partying on. Did not get home till 4.30am.... even had a spew (been a very long time since I did that!!) Heard Ains stirring at 7.30am, was about to do my penance and get up and DH jumped out of bed. He came in and kicked me out of bed at 8.30 to take me to Macca's for breaky so that I could get ready for the kids christmas party we had today. Just said goodbye to stepson, so now DH is taking me out for chinese to try and eliminate the rest of my hangover... so can't really join you girls in the DH rant!!!!
Best go and get ready for dinner. DH has just finished feeding my girl, so time to go... mmmmm peking duck!
Rikki - you go girl! Ive just been invited for a girls pi$$ up on thrusday night and I hope I spew on the way home to mate. Good on you for having such a great time. God knows you deserve it.
sounds like we all had OK weekends.. Just think this time nex week Christmas will be over and our little ones will be all spoilt rottne and we will be full of food and hopefully lots of laughs and for Chrissy hopefully a little bubba growing !
Try and get tomorrow so tired today.. and sad.. missing hubby.. very stressed out etc about moving, cant seem to pack enough and the kids want attention! So demanding this children business... lol
hey girls,
was in the hospital again today for the checkup they have started him on more medication this one is oral so thats alright cause i can do that :) he has kept his temp down for more than 24hrs now yay. the drs are really happy on how he his going. we go back there tomorrow to find out what sort of germ this is that is in his blood. hopefully all the tests are back to give me some more answers.
no im 23 lol but at the moment i feel like im 50 lol im only getting 2hrs worth of sleep a night cause im up most of the night scared that something else is going to go wrong :(
hopefully next year will be better. well i can hope anyway.
well im off to go have a shower and get riley to have a sleep and then its bed time for me
night alll
Adele
Hey girls... am about to go back and read all the posts from the weekend, but just thought I'd pop in and say hi!
Xander was great in the car trip to Bunbury, he got a little cranky on the way back but I honestly don't blame him as he had been either stuck in the car seat or handed around all day (poor kid). We picked up my new Falcon wagon, it has sooo much more room than the Liberty wagon we just sold.. my pram looks tiny in the back :lol: - more room for shopping. hehee.
BBL... kid is crying.
Oh Adele - thank god riley's alright. about time the doctor's pulled their fingers out and did their job. I bet your relieved now. I'd hate to see how much weight yourve lost from stress this week :)
Anna - Ive been naughty....its all Nelle's fault..heheheheh. I just bought an itti bitti purple diva nappy. they've got a big sale on. But shhhhh dont tell Jed. Glad that Xander was such a good boy for his mummy. Im so jealous tha tyou got away but i can wait my turn. PMSL at more room for shopping - thats why I bought a Ford Explorer hahahah
Little P - how the hell do you pack up a house and look after 2 kids by yourself, man your super woman. I aint ever gonna complain again (maybe not tonight anyway:) )
I just won a bertini koko stroller of ebay. Ive got a big bertini but its to big to take away at christmas so I thought a stroller that lays back all the way would be better. I got it for $50, I cant believe it. Its only 3 months old and I went to the baby shop here in Shepp and it was $399. I hope its not to good to be true.
Going to bed now, dreaming of ways to pay Jed back for being such a b'artch to me this weekend. OH one good thing, his borhter that just had a baby 12 days ago, flew down for the bucks and totally digusted Jed. He offered to go halves in an 'e' tablet. Jed an I are anti drugs and it really shattered Jed's image of his big brother. I just wish the man would use his brain. Ah I dont care, I know Jed wouldn't do that - I'd chop his willy wacker of if he did!
have a lovely night ladies
xxmaz
Maz- I SHOULD NO LONGER TALK TO YOU! :lol: Getting an itti bitti. I've been hanging for one of those. Where did you get it from? Congrats on the ebay win... sounds like a bargain. Bummer about your BIL - tho be proud that your DH didn't decide to go halves. Geee... even if you/Jed weren't anti-drugs, he is supposed to be a doting father of a newborn and should know better!
Nelle - You've created an monster.
i need a big dose of motivation to lose weight, so i think i will join in the fitness forum caddie, it just might do the trick to get a kick up my ars, and get out and start doing something.
has it been 2 weeks since our online chat? cause thats when i apparently conceived or tried very hard.....just lying there taking it all in...LOL.
HAVE A GREAT DAY GIRLS
:eek: SCHOOL HOLIDAYS HIT THIS WEEK AAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH:eek:
Created a monster? Muahahaha...well perhaps I have. But such a lovely monster.
I missed the itti bitti I wanted, but I totally didn't need it! Yay for you though Maz! I'm more keen for an AIO anyway, I really do have all the fitteds I need...for now :P
Chrissy, when you say 'apparently' conceived, do you mean that you're pregnant? Or that you hope you're pregnant? :)
Ohh big hugs Adele, hope you can get some good restful sleep soon!
Well I've got Riv on the change table (I can see his feet so he's mostly safe), I'm taking advantage of the fact that it's one of his favourite places to be, and I'm waiting for him to do another wee, he doesn't feel as wet as he should and I just know he'll wee as soon as I put a clean nappy on him!
Going shopping again today :rolleyes: I know I said never again, but there's a teensy bit more to be done. I can see a big box under our tree and Rans pretends he can't see it when I ask him about it so I think it's for ME! Hurrah!
Oh and Maz, for some bizzare reason Rans checked the mailbox on his way to work today and the extra part of your present is here so you should get it tomorrow!!
Oh, noises from the nursery, best be off :)
Chrissy - did you have to say that dirty word - school holidays. I wounder if you did fall pg mate??? exciting
Anna - it took me an hour to bloody get one (an itti that is lol). Im quiet proud that Jed said no and put us first. I so cant believe my BIL and ot make matter worse, he's a nurse and daddies favourite in the family. God if only they knew.
Nelle - did you get an itti?
better get the kids ready

Must run, as have to start the Christmas food shopping today!!!
Have a good day all!
Ha ha girls, I love the school holidays, for me it means Df is home, it's great being with a school teacher!
Can't believe xmas is next mon, I still have few gifts to get too, couple I have no idea what to get and I hate just wandering around in the Xmas crowds, I like to know what I'm going for. People give me the ****s, they always just stop suddenly in front of the pram and block the whole aisle, serves them right when I run them down!
HAPPY 3 MONTHS TO MY LITTLE ASHLEIGH!
Ahh its sad but happy. I was watching "From here to Maternity" last night and the little newborns, I miss that but at the same time its just so exciting to see how far she has come and all the time we are getting firsts of everything. Just time flies to quick, next Xmas our bubs will prolly be walking!
:D what a fabulous sleep my boy had down by 10.15pm, woke for feed at 4.45am, back in bed by 5.15am and we didn't get up till9.10am :D then i got him out of pj's put cloth nappy on an started a feed well OMG OMG!!!!!!!!!!!! my boy can poo:lol: he didn't do one yesterday and my god it was everywhere so we justed jumped in shower and now have disp on and a whole new set of clothes LOL
well he wants to finish feed bbl
Wow your avatar looks great Nelle, I want in on your natural paradise.sigh makes me want to go camping, but cant this summer due to bushfires raging in the area. Oh and glad that your family is all safe.
BBL.
Love
hi ladies!!!
Just popping in to say a quick hello before i go off and read the 30948230984093280 million posts i have missed! lol
Been so busy shopping for christmas and im happy to say all the kiddies presents are wrapped and placed under the tree!! Savanna is sooo spoilt!! people have been coming around dropping off her presents all week. Mummy cant wait to open them!! heheeh
Now i just have to get hubbys, parents and my bro's presents and i gotta pick up savannas christmas layby from chadstone. Im dredding going to chadstone!! arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i shouldnt of left it this long! oh dear!!!
Savanna met santa on Saturday and she was such an angel!! Loves to pose for photos!! hahah
Oh my poor darling has also been have diorrhea (sp?)
and some are actually green. Im very concerned. I rang the nurse line and the lady said she may have gastro but to get her checked at the gp. She has not been vomiting though.
She was very fussy when drinking and would scream . but that has stopped and she seems alot happier. could the diorrhea be from the heat or maybe even teething??
I have suspected that she might be teething and she keeps chewing on her dummy and salivates ALOT. Hopefully i can get an appointment today with her doc.
Better be off to read posts now!
BBL
luv ambz
morning all.
nelle - love the av!
ambz - Nina loved Santa too. I hope she doesn't get too sick.
adele - you poor thing. If I lived near you, or even in the same state, I'd come and help you out. I just wanna give you a big hug. I hope Riley gets better soon.
Well Nina has been a little angel since Saturday. She hasn't had the same episode like she did on Friday night since, which is great. She's sleeping really well at night, about 12-13 hours a night, and having 3 1hour sleeps during the day. It's so easy to put her down for a sleep too, when she's tired, just put her in her cot, and she'll be asleep within minutes!! To good to be true. I bet the next growth spurt will be awful, she'll probably turn into a monster baby! Talking about monster babies, her needles are this Thursday. Heath was suppose to finish work this Wednesday, but now is working Thursday too. He can get about an hour off work to be with me when she gets them done, but then has to go back to work, so hopefully she'll be ok for the rest of the day otherwise I'm sure you'll all hear me screaming!!
I can't believe how much our bubs are growing. Just this morning I had her on the floor watching TV and she was rolling around all over the place, taking her beloved teddy bear with her, it was soooo cute! She's doing really well with trying to sit up so it's only a matter of time before that happens, and she's 4 months on Wednesday!! I can't believe it.
Sorry to those that I've missed, I better get the nappy bag packed before she wakes up. Hope everyone has a good day and their bubs are behaving themselves.
Hi girls
I am back, yes I still am alive, just havent been really well. Hope you all didnt forget me.
I will need to catchup on the posts before doing personals so so sorry for no personals this time round.
Question about feeding for those who breastfeed - Julia seems to be not interested in my breast anymore she crys before a feed and wont take the breast at all, I posted in the other section to ask for some suggestions but just wondering if you have any ideas why she wouldnt be interested? Got her weighed this morning shes now 5.7kgs with clothes on thats great!
Hugs to everyone... :grouphug:
Bel
xxx
Belle maybe she has sore gums?
belle, could be a number of things ... too hot? maybe she's too tired and couldn't be bothered (nina does this), not hungry? How's your milk supply?
Ooh ahh, I DO like my avatar! Lol Helen, I want in on my natural paradise too :lol:
Hi there Belle! Of COURSE we hadn't forgotten you! That's a brilliant weight...could she just not be hungry yet? Riv goes about 4ish hrs between feeds, because when I gave him milk earlier than that he mucked around and wasn't really into it. The other girls have some good ideas too...no idea, how can we really tell with these confusing babies anyway! Hope you figure out what it is!
Maz, nope I didn't get an itti bitti in the end, rather sad. Though I don't really care, since I've got an AIO coming in the mail anyway! Can't have everything!
OH and I posted off your parcel this morning, express (after standing in a line that stretched to the next suburb I reckon) so you SHOULD get it tomorrow! I'm rather excited and nervous..I hope it's okay.
Yay that Nina's doing well Jodi, it's always nice when our babies seem to be cruising along nicely isn't it. Yay Rach for Jack as well! Ah what the heck, YAY to all the babies!
Wow Ambz on Savanna being so spoilt! We figure Riv won't care this Christmas, perhaps I'll give him an extra Christmas feed or something, lol! We did get him a top from Pumpkin Patch that says 'my momma ain't raising no fool'. Pretty cute.
Well. Bought some new wine glasses (despite the fact that Rans's and my family don't drink :P) for Christmas lunch - they look so much nicer.
Back later I imagine, hope everyone's enjoying their afternoon! xo
*Belle*- Could she just not be that hungry at the moment? I was reading your post, and you said eventually she attatched so maybe she is filling up enough now that she can go longer between feeds? Hope you sort it out. Could you ask your MCHN or call the ABA?
Well to coincide with Ashleigh's 3 month birthday we have set up the cot, fingers crossed she'll settle into it okay. I think she will cause its in the same position her bassinet was. She's just getting way too long for her bassinet some nights after I hear her throwing herself round the bed I go in and she has gone sideways and has her legs over the side so I think she's well and trully due for the cot now. I had few tears in my eyes when setting it up!
happy 3 mths Ashleigh
jack is going into cot when we get back from agnes after xmas, we have to use brakes on bassinet otherwise he moves it all round the place:lol:
Shell i initially put ruby for day sleeps in cot first and then a week later tried at night and she was great!! She prefers it as when i put her in the bassinet 2 days ago due to mega crankies(thought id rock her) she screamed louder!!
Well i did my last christmas shop this morning! I forgot my only nephew.I spent way more than i should but i thought well what the heck!!
Thanks rach for pharmacydirect.i just bloody spent up big!!! My hubby will have a fit.
Okay going to read a mag whilst kiddies are asleep!
my little moo is just crying and crying. Im going to pull my hair out. thank god she's doing now and not when Jed was away. She would have made a pretty wall hanging if she did.
BBL
Wow, all the bubs are going great guns!!
Jodi - sounds like Nina is going full steam ahead, Rylee also has her injections this Thurs - not looking fwd to it - last time she screamed and screamed, poor thing.
The shops are so crowded here, it is a mission just to get groceries. Though I did some shopping this morning and got DH and Rylee's pressies - got Rylee a little gold bracelet with elephants on it and will get her a toy too - what are you guys getting your bubs for Chrissy?
Yep, Xmas is next Monday - think I will have run out of steam by then!
Also, are any of your bubs rolling over - Rylee tries to when she is on her tummy - but doesn't quite get there - do you girls do any other exercises with them?
Better go, she's waking up.
Hugs
Laurin
Maz- I hope Vy settles for you. Its horrible when they do that and you try everything to please them and they are just not happy. Ash was like that a few days ago, its awful.
Ash is in her cot, took us a little while longer to settle her but she's asleep now so we'll see how she goes, I just hope if she wakes she can resettle.
caddie- Thats a good idea, if she doesn't sleep to well tonight in the cot I'll try getting her used to it in the day first.
Laurin- Ash isn't rolling yet, she nearly can roll from tummy to back but gets her arm stuck and stops half way, she hates being on her tummy so she tries really hard to roll onto her back.
