Babies Born September 2006 #29

Well a pretty good night here too, we just had subway (ohhh yum) and watched The Devil Wears Prada, which my sister told us this afternoon that she hated, so we hired it and really liked it :p Rans bought chocolate too, but I'm going through this wierd phase of only feeling like eating chocolate in the mornings!

Rans has now fallen asleep on me on the middle couch - and Sharle, they are pretty comfy! I like our one, cos it's nice to be able to snuggle in the middle one; when we bought it I made Rans promise that we wouldn't always be in the recliners at each end, that we could snuggle in the middle sometimes!

Caddie, it's an OiOi Carry All (pattern I love is Seaspray Retro Swirl), I'm looking at it on babyexpress. com.au and it's on sale for $99 and Rans isn't sure we have money for it and oh gosh darn I'm racking my brain for ways to earn money I HAVE to have it, and I haven't felt like that about a bag for aaaaaages. Wondering if I could do mum's ironing for her, or set up a lemonade stand in my front yard, or hunt down criminals that have a reward for finding them, save a rich person's life...

And wow at Annika cutting teeth and Nina sitting up! I agree with you Sharle, I was looking at newborn photos of Riv and wow, I think he's not growing that fast cos I see him every day, but wow, he was sooo little and now in comparison he's huuuge! They come such a long way in such a short time, and it's such a privilege to be able to watch them every day and see things 'click' in their minds as they work out how to do stuff!

Speaking of watching things, River spent heeeaps of time today (til Ran's arm got tired) watching Rans wave a coke bottle around! When Rans waved it from side to side in circles River was mesmerised and then when Rans waved it up and down River thought it was hilarious!! What a wierdo. Cute wierdo but.

Criiiiikey, it's late. Better get this lump to bed, he's cutting off my circulation and I don't want gangrene or anything. Well. Might just gaze at this bag for a feeew minutes more. xo

ETA: I just found more pictures of the bag on the internet...and I want it so badly I feel sick. Somebody slap me. Or buy me the bag. Either will do.
Okay, I'm going to bed for real this time. Night. xo

good morning all.. short and sweet this morning, my mum is coming for the weekend from Sydney so up early cleaning the house waiting !

GOOD NEWS!!! Last night i had not sterilised Alexanders bottles so i gave him a breast feed at 9.30pm (instead of his usual formual dreamfeed ) and was just prepared to give him breast when he woke through the night.. but guess what !!! HE is still aslepp !!! and its 6.00am BNE time !!!! So my little man can sleep through without a formula top up.. makes me feel good knowing that the booby juice is working for him.. !!!

Have not read past posts to catch up on all .. so big hugs and kisses to you all . back in a couple of days once my mum goes home! Luv ya's! xoxo Anna

Good morning chickies..

Jodi. YAY for Nina!! WOO! I wish Jess would hurry it along! He can sit up if i put his hands on the floor infront to balance him but then he falls to the side lol. But yay nina!! Youll have to take some photos!

Jess still doesnt really laugh much. Like he smiles his head off and that but unless your really tickling him do you ever get a laugh sound outta him.
Jess woke up twice during the night.. the first time i cant really remember but the second when i went in he had the dummy which i took out before i went to bed so i mustve gone in. The second time i think he had a nightmare as he was crying in his sleep poor pet.
DH is home sick today.. has a yucky tummy.. hope i dont get it.

Well, Jess is starting to get bored with his gym so must go play with him.

Ciao for now

xx

Nina only woke once last night!! I feel so good, went to bed at 9.30 so I've had a huge sleep.

I forgot to say to Laurin, Anna** and I had the same problem with our bubs waking every 2 hours last month. It almost drove us insane. We just had to stick with it and let it pass. Nina did this for about 7 weeks (don't know about Xander, I think roughly the same time).

Gotta go and get ready for work now. be back tonight

HAPPY 6 MONTHS ALEXANDER!!!!

Someone put me out of my misery.My back is killing me!!! Today more that usual.
Grrr,last night i was up at 11pm with ruby,then up an hour and a half with millana at midnight and then ruby at 3am.I am tired.Millana will be at daycare proper today so i will most likely do house work.
Gotta go as millana whinging and trying to force herself on my lap.

Morning all.
Gave Ash her dreamfeed at 10:30 and again she still woke at 11:30 but this time I didn't even go in cause i know if she see's me she'll be expecting booby. She wasn't upset it was more calling out to me then she was sort of grizzly crying with lots of pauses and after 15mins she went to sleep and didn't wake for a feed til 3. So hopefully after a few nights she will just automatically go back to sleep cause she'll have learnt she doesn't need me. When she did wake at 3 she thought it was playtime cause i was chasing that ****roach i'd been trying to get since last week! And yes its finally dead. So it took awhile for her to settle back to sleep!
Yuck I can hear her all the way in the lounge and smell a big poo! What has she been eating?!

caddie- Stuff the housework, i think you should try have a nap instead!

Anna**- God I hope Xander isn't going to keep continuing the constant wake ups for his mummy.

Jodi- have a good day in the office.

little*princess- thats great he can sleep thru on booby juice, clever boy!

Nelle- Could you ask your mum or someone to help you buy that bag and pay them back in instalments? Maybe go halvies? I will have to see it. Must be fantastic for the price.

Well Ashleigh whinged all thru our dinner last night then as soon as we got home shes all happy! Matt bought me tatts pack, had 3 scrathies and powerball ticket and every scratchie won a prize ($18 all up) so that means my powerball ticket also has to be a winner!

Morning girls! Yay Little P on Alexander sleeping through without formula! Did he have a big day yesterday too, or do you think it was the food which made all the difference?

Sharle, the couches come with an ottoman too (that you can put stuff in) and so you can still put your feet up in the middle seats, and you wouldn't be reclining while watching movies anyway would you, otherwise you couldn't see the screen ;)

Kell, Riv still hasn't giggled for me, just makes super happy noises, but he giggles sometimes for my mum and for Rans. I'm not fussed, he's a pretty laid back kid, and I can still tell when he's enjoying himself.

Hurrah for killing that ****roach Shell! That's great that Ash resettled herself last night! You must be right, it must be a behavioural thing, not a hungry need. All the best with getting her to eventually sleep right through that time!

Caddie, I hope your back stops hurting! And that you can get a nap. Or at least a nice strong coffee :p

HAPPY 6 MONTHS XANDER!!!!!!!!!

Wow thats come by so fast Anna! Only 5 weeks for us "babies" of the group!

As usual Dh did not disappoint me, I got ZILCH for V Day. Oh well after I didnt get upset about it as I wasnt surprised he felt really bad lol Esp cause I managed to get him a card atleast. So he made big promises about Mothers Day and never forgetting our wedding anniversary again and soon he will do something for me just cause. I hate it that I cant believe it so hopefully he surprises me by keeping his word. My lovely sister had sms'd him and gave him idea's on what to do hahaha She promised a night of babysitting while her and her boyfriend are here this weekend so we can go to dinner and a movie. She's also bringing home made dark chocolate hearts she made for her boyfriend for V Day. She also made him a chocolate basket with choc covered strawberries and cherries in it AND a heart shape cake with choc icing and strawberries and cream in the middle. She's a great cook! Have I made you all want chocolate yet????

Better go bub is yelling at me. BBL.

hi girls,
just a quick post as i have to go to MG and DH is home so trying to spend as much time with him...

Happy 6 months Xander!!! welcome back Laurin

Big V day for us.... (we watched Devil wears Prada too Nelle and had rack of lamb and I made DH a choccie cake) but Ainsleigh sat up unassisted, sat forward in the car (her legs were scrunched up on the back of the seat so had to turn her around) and cut her first tooth!!!! Big day for our little girl.

Best go jump in the shower... hello everyone, try to get back and do personals later....

Time for a new thread!
