That pic of Vy is soooo cute, I've got it on my fridge ATM, I'll put it in her scrapbooking album when I start it.
AnnaT - iv got everything crossed foryou honey. I hope that it works and iud PMSL if it was quad...NOT!

wassuppp ladies!!!
mum picked savanna up about an hour ago
i should be cookin dinner but i really cant be f'd too lazy today!!
little missy is becoming so cheeky!! she can now wave when you say hello to her.
she can say dadda and her new word is bubba. too cute!!!
she is holding and walking around all over the place!
oh for those that dont know... baby bunting is selling cot protectors.
instead of the thick cot bumpers these ones are made from soft mesh fabric and strap onto the sides of the cot to keep bubbas arms and legs from dangling out and causing injuries.
its fantastic!!! also bubs cant stand on it too climb out as it collapses down. its awesome!!!
no personals right now cause i feel too slack
hehehe

** WARNING HUGE VENT AHEAD **
Im trying really hard not to cry. I know its just the clomid messing with me but I am so fricken mad, frustrated, upset :cry: Dh comes home an hour late. Tells me that our neighbours/friends across the road are going to have drinks at thiers. So I ask "What time, is dinner involved, just the boys or everyone?" The answer "I dunno."
So I had a tanty about how people need to be more organised because I dont live my life according to what everyone else decides last minute etc etc etc Then I had a tanty about how much I hate it here and how Im so lonely, I have to make all the sacrifices with everything - moving, friends, family, TTC - and he can just hop along happy as larry. Then I moved on to how we left great reliable do-anything-for-you friends in Sydney and Perth to come here and have half assed make-stupid-life-decisions unreliable friends.
And here I was thinking that I would escape the clomid side effects :cryinglaugh:

Nottin new.. just washed my hair.. thought you might all be interested.. lol
PMSL annie, you're so naughty! don't get caught ;)
happy 8 months gorgeous nina!!!!!!!!
im so bored tonight
anyone else on at the moment??
oh heres something thatll make yas laugh..
for god knows how long i have been telling everyone that i am 26 years old!!!!
i am actually 25!!
can you believe i actually forgot my own age!!!!
i was telling my mum the other day that im turning 27 this year and how i cant believe it!!
well my mum must have thought i was the biggest idiot in the world!!
she rightfully corrected me on my mistake. thank god for mummys what would we do without them!!
ps - i turn 26 in June! :) not long hehe
:cryinglaugh: Ambz, I hereby crown thee DORK of September mummies! We bow to you, your royal Silliness.
Too funny mate.
Well I turned up to youth group late, popped into the office to chuck my bag and jacket in there, my mate was in there doing a spot of homework before joining the group, I congratulated her on her NEWWW engagement (he suprised her with skydiving - phwoar!), she asked how I was and I started CRYING!! Full on. I think it's just been one of those weeks where lots of little things happen, you know? Like I think River teething and constantly needing comforting maybe took its toll, and I haven't made the time just to be still and have a read of my bible, which is what I need. I didn't want to say, cos I still feel like such a baaad mummy, but Riv fell off the bed on Tuesday when we were there, I just didn't notice him pulling himself along, and then on Wednesday he fell off the change table cos I got distracted. I felt so bad. I just get distracted so easy.
Anyway. Am planning to take a bit of time out tomorrow morning, maybe go for a walk, before dealing with my dilemma of having double booked myself tomorrow night - got mates coming for dinner who are ttc and need some tlc, and my cousin's hens night! Ahhh crap.
Better get to bed though, I'm sure my late nights don't do too much good for me hey! :p
Hope everyone has a totally brilliant weekend!
hi girls
sorry - one last question. a couple of you suggested panadol. any tips on giving this to a bf baby? last time i squirted it in his mouth with the dropper - he hated the taste, and just kept coughing/gagging on the taste. i bought another brand yesterday. do you try and sneak it in with the breast milk?
thanks for your advice
anne - whenever I give panadol to nina, I give it to her in the dropper, but small bits at a time, otherwise she'll gag.
nelle - you poor thing. Sounds like you need a little time out. I know when I've had a lot going on I get distracted and that's when things happen, like River falling off things. I'm sure he'll be fine. Every baby does it. Nina has fallen off our bed too. Hopefully you get that time out this morning, and also take the time to read your bible.
ambz - PMSL, I bet you won't be saying that when your older, you'll be knocking a couple of years off!
Nelle,ruby has fallen out of her rocker a couple of times and yep i was distracted and felt real bad! But you are a good mummy and you just learn from your mistakes! I think some you time would help alot.I have felt a bit desperate for 5min of peace and tiredness plays a huge part as i was a blubbering mess at the drs a month back anbd that was whn i was up to both kids.One night it was 8 times! Dont be hard on yourself mate.
Ambz,savanna is such an adorable baby.Are you indian? Your dad looks indian?I had an idian friend i did nursing training with and her house was full of divine smells of spices.
Does your partner box? Who takes all the photos? you? or by a professional?
Ok,scrapping was fun last night but didnt make it a late one.Ive got visitors for tea tonight and i didnt want to be yawning!
Hello sexy chicky babes!
Just a quicky this morning, mum and dad are due here in 45 mins and im yet to feed Jesse his breaky and tidy the house!
Anne.. Jesse always squirms when we give him panadol. If i try and do small bits at a time, he just jam shuts his mouth. After we squirt it in his mouth (to the side of his mouth) i usually stick his dummy in straight after so he just sucks it down. But yeh if your DS doesnt have a dummy, just squirt it in and maybe stick your finger in his mouth to suck on?
Ok gotta bail.. have a lovely day mummas..
annef6722: Bailey was like that when he was 3 months old, red cheeks and drooling ALOT. Just as a one off, we gave him baby panadol. Not sure how you can tell if they are or not, we just took a punt!
ness - I'm feeling 100% today. Antibiotics are doing the trick. Dr has also upped the strength of my preventer, which is helping in a big way too.
Have fun tonight! I'm glad it's you and not me :p
Hi girls... just a quick one.
Nelle - Hon, don't feel bad... knocks and bumps happen to the best of us. Xander had the biggest egg on his head the other day from when he fell and hit the tiles. The worst bit was that I was actually watching him at the time... it just happened so fast I couldn't catch him (he was trying to pull up from a sit)
Who asked about bubs and panadol? Xander hates the stuff... I bought Dymadon instead and he loves it. Much easier. He also likes the Nurafen too. It was just impossible getting the panadol in with the dropper, he'd just spit it back out.
We went out to dinner last night to celebrate our anniversary. First time out without bubba, it was so nice! Must do it again soon.
Happy 8 Months Nina!
bbl...
nessa, I do leadlighting too, but I've been too slack and all my stuff is packed away. They look gorgeous. Hope you get some sold.
anna - Congrats on your wedding anniversary!! Time away from them is nice isn't it. I'm going for a girls only brekkie tomorrow morning with a couple of girlfriends, and the dads are looking after the bubs.
Time to go, got a BBQ to go to.
morning ladies!!
well i had a little sleep in this morning..then the phone rang and it was sis in law.
"i knew you would be sleeping" she says
arghhhhhhhhhh so why did you ring dammit!!! haha its all good i needed to get up anyways.
caddie: yep im anglo indian/english. hubby is mauritian.
unfortunately my house doesnt smell of yummy spices. i think im too aussie for that lol
we eat mostly european foods. mum brings yummy dishes over often cause i still cannot cook like her. when i try it never tastes the same haha
we are actually going to india for a holiday and my cousins wedding in december.savanna is going to be a little flower girl!!!
mum hubby savanna my brother and myself are all going together i cant wait for savanna to meet all her relos
hubby used to box couple years ago. that pic is from savannas pixi photos. it was hubbys idea to put the gloves on her. came out soooo cute too! i normally take all savanna's photos. im so camera happy always clicking away. but she is always so happy to oblige with a big smile hehe
jodi- im sure i will be doing that hehe im such a cluts! hopefully when im forty ill still look thirty!! heres to hoping!! haha
i still get asked for ID when i go to crown casino or buy smokes for hubby loll
i guess i should take it as a compliment :lol:
nelle: dont feel bad hun. im sure many of us have made the same mistakes. sometimes our little bubbas are just too quick. twice when i have been changing savanna on her change table she has nearly fallen off. once she was sitting up and toppled over forwards. lucky there is a tall washing basket infront which caught her fall and me grabbing onto her legs. its amazing how fast they can do things without you realising.
god hubby would kill me if he read this. he is so protective of her.
big hugs to you hun xoxoxox
oh and about the dorkiness yes that is me!!!! sometimes i say things without realising how dumb they sound. hubby used to call me jessica after jessica simpson. haha
ok better go mop my floors. damn white tiles!!!! grrrrrr
ps- savanna actually doesnt mind the taste of panadol. i on the other hand hate alllll syrup medicines!!!
Nelle - honey im glad your having some time out. ODnt feel horrible aobut what happened, wait until you accidently drowne your kids (Like I did with WIlhelm..long story) If you were a bad mum you wouldnt be feeling so rotten about it. MAUW honey.
Caddie - im so jealous that you got to go scrapping...Ive been so busy around here. So what did you get done???
Anna - happy anni honey. HOpe the 2 of you doona danced enough for number 2.
Jodie - Havent tried my blender yet but for $30 and a 2 year replacement warranty who cares??? If you cant get one up there let me know and i'll ge tone for you and send it up.
Ambz - not pg already are ya honey? PMSL.
I made a cot scarfe (as Ive decided to call it) Ive made it out of muslin and wrapped it in and out of the bars then press studded it together at the ends. Will put pic on my site later in the mappys section. I made it with muslin for the air flow and if Vy steps on it it will just fall down. Pretty proud for my effort.
Ness - send me a pic of what yourve made please
Bel and Anna - taggy balls one their way for you. I made Xander a bib to anna and its in the package aswell. Sent it this morning so that means anna will get it in 2 weeks. Pmsl.
CR@P it raining (yay) but ive got nappys on the line
BBL
Hey there sexy Honeys..
Had a lovely morning with mum and dad.. Yes Ness was the first time theyd seen him crawl and he was such a show off too! They were so proud.
Nelle.. aww hun. Jess has gone so close to falling off the change table so many times. His change table is next to his chest fo draws and i lent down to get something out of it, next i knew he had rolled over and was half hanging off it. On Monday at his photo shoot with Richie, we sat them on the lounge to take their photos and all of a sudden Jess decided to nose dive off the lounge, i literly dived, dropped the camera and just caught him. I think i may have told you all the story of how i was cutting his nails once and he moved and i took a huge chunk of skin!I heard it crunch! And he just looked up at me and dropped his lip. Oh hun i felt terrible, but its all an accident. Im sure River is going to have many more tumbles in his time.. but that doesnt make you a bad mum. But do make sure you get some you time ok.. even if you just take a warm bath and sit and have a read of your bible.. i think thats what you need. :hugs:
Ambz.. haha you doofus. Im 26 now, 27 tomorrow woo!
Caddie.. would love to see some of your scrapbooking.
Nessa.. what type of cake did you do for your sister? Take and pics?
Jodi.. gald youre feeling better
Maz.. well done with the cot scalf... would love to see the pics.
Anna**.. oh lucky you, glad you had a nice night. We havent left Jesse with anyone yet.. its either been DH stayed home while i popped out or vise versa.. ive always been here at night for him.. too scared to leave him with anyone but my mum and she is an hour and a half away, so that doesnt really help.
Gotta go.. can hear some banging in Jesse's room, lil devil.
hello all,
I have had a nice night, my sister came over for a kind of slumber party. We had pizza and junk food and watched DVD's, was great. But it kept me away from here for too long. Lol. We did bit shopping too yesterday but only got couple things.
BBl for personals, took too long to catch up and now Ash is crying (again).
Hmm bit quiet in here. I'm not happy, Bombers beat Saints so now Df is all smug about it. Every year when they play each other our place becomes a battle ground.
Kell- Do you get to see your parents often with the being hour and half away? Happy birthday for tomor.
Nessa- I loved the pics of your frames, they look great, I'll keep it in mind for a gift when someone has a bub.
Ambz- Lol forgetting your age. Sounds exciting bout going to India, have you been there often?
Anna- Glad you enjoyed your dinner, I think Df and I definately need to get out without Ashleigh for a night, even if its just a dinner. Can't believe we haven't been to a movie together since before Ashleigh. We used to go all the time.
Nelle- How you feeling? Sometimes its good just to have a cry and let it all out, i do that every now and then, things can just get so overwhelming and mixed with exhaustion and finding it hard to just get 5 mins to yourself, its just too much sometimes. I think you need an early night too young lady! Staying up late every night. Lol.
I might have early night tonight, very tired and feel ill cause ate too much dinner.
ETA: I forgot to tell everyone we are going to an auction tomorrow so wish us luck. We aren't feeling too confident though. From our research we've found everywhere is going well over the asking price so will prolly go for alot more than what we can afford but we never know, could get lucky.
Hey Shell.. yeh not enough, only every 3 weeks or so as its a long travel to go for Jesse up and back in one day. Best of luck with the auction tomorrow!!
Have put a video on Jesse's site of him crawling for anyone who wants to see!
Where is everyone tonight?
Yooooooooooohooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo........ ...
Kell - OMG.. how cute is Jesse!!! Loved the video.. will have to try and do one myself one day !
xox
Maz - You're cot scarfe is a great idea... such a clever chook. Can't wait to see that bib and ball when AP deliver it, prolly sometime next year :p I swear that they walk it over to Perth... someone should tell them that there are big things called planes that get the mail delivered a lot faster.
Belle - How are you hon?
Shell - This is the first time we've been out as well, we were gone for about 3.5 hours... Xander did crack it big time, but my sis and mum just took turns patting his bum and cuddling him till he finally fell asleep. Does everything go to auction where you are? Makes it hard to buy a house unless you can put in an offer prior to auction... wishing you lots of luck tomorrow. Auctions are so exciting!
Kellxx - Gonna go look-see at your clever little boy crawling in a tic.
Nessa - Bummer you can't advertise the frames, hopefully lots of people saw them before it got removed.
Jodi - Thanks for the congrats... it's not actually our anniversary till Monday, but you gotta get out when ya can when you've got a bub!
Oh, in case I don't get on early enough tomorrow Happy Birthday Kellxx!!! :happybirthday:
Gonna update my ticker pic of me and my DH on our wedding day for a couple of days me thinks.
Happy Birthday Kell :happybirthday:
way to go Jesse on the crawling!!
shell - good luck with the auction
Well Nina is eating again :dance: yesterday she scoffed down a weetbix for brekkie, then scoffed down some fruit for lunch.
going out for brekkie now with the girls. Heath is playing mum. have a good day everyone.
:happybirthday: kell!!!
and goodluck at the auction today Shell
Way to Go Nina!! good girl for eating your breaky!
Anna** - glad that you had an enjoyable night for your anniversary..its mine on the 4th may.. not sure what we are doing as yet!
Hi Belle - how is Julia?
Maz - is school back as yet?? You must be flat out doing all your sewing!
AnnaT- hows things .. is Jett getting into everything?
Nelle - dont feel bad, we have all had little accidents with our kids.. hope that you can have your little time out on a regular basis..
Ambz - how cute will Savannah be as a flower girl!
Rikki - :hello: is hubby at home or away?
Chrissy - have you stoped bleeding yet? are you TTC??
Oh, and its a GIRL for Princess Mary!!!
3.3kilos...
i so want to be pregnant again... cluck cluck cluck
:p
:happybirthday: Kell. Hope you have a great day.
Annie- I heard princess Mary had a girl, they said first girl born into the family line since 1946.
Jodi- Good on Nina, they just like to always do things at their own pace, yesterday Ashleigh ate really well too, alot more than usual.
Anna**- Everything pretty much goes for auction, there are a few private sales but auction is the most popular way to go, places we've been watching to get ideas of costs have been going for like $100k over original asking price and its just ridiculous, its meant to be illegal to underprice.
We went well food wise yesterday, Ashleigh had only 5 breats feeds instaed of her usual 8, ate really well, actually had a whole jar of food for tea last night then slept from 7:20- 1:20 then had another feed at 6:30, so I was very excited, but knowing her she won't keep to this and will be cheeky again.
Did you use my mudcake recipe Nessa? Has anyone had a go at making the mudcake yet?
Shell - $100k over is a LOT... makes it hard if you go in thinking you might get near the asking price. Best of luck anyway, you'll get a break eventually! Once you are in the property market it is so much easier, hence why we bought something we didn't really like for our first home, tidied it up and flogged it off then bought something we wanted.
Happy Birthday Kell- I hope you have a good one.
Good luck with the auction Shell.
Nelle-Sorry to hear that you are having an emotional time at the moment.
Busy, busy, busy here.
Love
Happy birthday kell! hope it was a great day!!
Big Brother starts tonight!!!!
