Maz - I hope your Mum is ok? My Nanna has had 7 now, so I know how tough it can be on the family. Look after yourself too and try not to stress too much (hard, I know). If you need to chat, I'm home most of tomorrow.
Belle - Thanks for the chat today.
Rikki - Was great to catch up with you and Ainsleigh today. Xander is going to look soooo cute in that shirt you gave him Thanks!
Rach-Gosh that is just awful, I hope that you and Jack feel a lot better soon.
Just updated my ticker as I am feeling quite reminiscent. It's a photo of Eithan and I in recovery having our skin to skin. He is nearly 1, but Xander's first, whoohoo.
Love

I know, it's so full on how much they grow in the first year! Well, I'd best not get ahead of myself anyway, River's not even 11 months yet!
Sorry to hear about your mum Maz, hope she's able to rehabilitate really quickly.
I got a game for Ran's Nintendo DS today, Princess Peach. It's pretty fun, I love Nintendo games, cos they're designed for kids, I can actually have a go at them. I've still died quite a few times though. The DS is cool too, cos I can play it in bed! Bit like the laptop!
Not much sleep for me last night. My bloody throat so irritated I barely slept! And Ash has been grumpy all morning, I feel bad for her though, i think she must have sore throat or sores in her mouth cause she only wants to eat cold foods and milk.
Chrissy- She is gorgeous, I love looking at updated pics.
Maz- Any updates on your mum?
Rach- How is Jack this morning?
Belle- You think the new meds are doing anything for you yet? I know sometimes they can take awhile to kick in.
So tomor is the start of all these bubs turning 1! I still can't believe it. And on top of that I never thought I'd still be getting up twice a night at this stage!
belle - so good to hear from you. Have the inlaws left now? How is Julia going? I hope you start feeling better soon. I'll give you a call sometime this week.
Thanks for the referral for Williams Lodge. I hadn't rung them yet, so did this morning, and they can offer a better deal than the other place I was looking at. So we're going to stay there for 2 nights. It won't be for a couple of weeks yet as I've had to give my parents plenty of notice so they can make the time to babysit.
I hinted to Heath last night about how much I deserve an eternity ring, seeing as I was in labour for our anniversary last year. Don't know about my chances though cause our weekend away is costing us enough!
anna - maybe you can get Scott to tell Heath that he should buy me one
OMG, I can't believe Xander is one TOMORROW! And Eithan on the 17th!! Where is the time going.
Found out today a friend of mine is 7 weeks pg. She's been married for 3.5 years, been with her DH for about 10 or more years, and has been wanting a baby for years now. Finally he's let her have one.
Went to swimming this morning and Nina is now swimming under water all on her own for about 4 metres
shell - hope you start feeling better soon. Did Ash end up having foot/mouth?
chrissy - pics look great! What ever happended about your daughter going into modelling?
Jodi- B&B sounds so good, around this time last year we were at one, I remember having a spa feeling like a beached whale! I'll def have to suggest to Df further down the track that we go again. I never took Ash to Dr's but I did my own diagnosis so I'm convinced that what it is, she fits all the symptoms exactly.
Good luck getting the eternity ring!
A bit of a sleepless night here too. For some reason james thought that it would be fun to *sing* at 2 am. He played around for at least an hour then started crying. I went in and put his lullaby cd on, and he went back to sleep. up at 7am. I thought that as he was awake during the night, that he might have a sleep in. nuh - he had other plans. He used to love having a cuddle in bed with us in the morning, now he just seems to get cranky and wants to get up and get moving!!
Good Morning Mummies and Kiddies......this raises the question, once they are one, are they still babies????? I think so!
Jodi - Thanks for that, will PM Nessa with details.
Nessa - Sending you PM!!!
Maz - Sorry to hear about your Mum. Hope she recovers 100% and you look after yourself as well.
Rach - Hope Jacks getting better. I loved your term "Jack Duty". Cute.
Helen - Gorgeous pic, I bet it brought back floods of memories and tears of love.
My Dads off to hospital today. Has to get from his house to Melbourne by Public transport as he 'would not hear of it' if my bro took the day off to take him in. Silly man, he's on crutches and has to take a bag for atleast a weeks stay in there. I will be worried all day now till I know he is okay.
Off to the post office to mail invites for a certain boys first birthday party. YAY!!!!
Nearly forgot - Happy 11 Months Bailey Boy. Mummy & Daddy love you sssoooo much. xxx
thanks for all your thoughts for my mum girls...the hospital discharged her yesterday afternoon and I am so annoyed cause she cant feel her arm and they let her go home with out keeping her in for 24 hours...grrrr. She has to go and have more scans today and blood tests. Atleast I know why she has been all grumpy and distant from me the last few months...the blood clot would have put pressure on some of her nerves in her brain before it burst. She was her normal cheeky self last night.
Thank you all again...Im trying to cope but there' sonly so far you can stretch yourself isnt there.
BBL after Ive re-read everyones posts...my brain is over cooked atm. I love all the first pics in your tickers to girls...sorry but I had to copy and of course I bawled my eyes out.
Mauw to you all
xxmaz
maz so sorry to hear about your mum, my thoughts and prayers are with you.
Shell - the tablets are working but need to up my meds...
Chrissy - thanks mate.
Hello to everyone sorry I havent read the posts, will try again later on when my mum is here to mind Julia. Julia is into everything crawling into each room and I havent baby proofed anything yet so got to do that this arvo.
I also have been running around booking myself into a hospital program starting this Saturday all day and goes for 8 weeks its an intense depression therapy program costs $2,500 and am out of pocked $900 but I really need this right now. The choice was this or admitted to hospital for 4 weeks stay without Julia and I just cant do that right now. So im running around seeing GP for referal to hospital and got a psychiatrist admission interview tomorrow and then go there on Saturday. So im sorry if the post is all about me I just wanted to let you know where im at.
Belle- Hopefully this new therapy will do the trick. Is there no mother/ baby units that you and Julia can go to together? Your place sounds like mine, we have to watch Ash closely cause we aren't really baby proofed, move in 4 weeks anyway so then we can set new place totally proofed.
Maz- Thats pretty bad, they should've at least kept her 24 hours! has she got any movement in her arm? Her speech okay? Big hugs to you and your family, hopefully this year will start to pick up for you.
Vixstar- if your dad and bro live in melb did you grow up here? Where abouts? Hope your dad goes well with his op, whats he having done?
Meg- i miss those days of being able to have a cuddle in bed, Ash just wants to climb off now and get round everywhere!
I might go for a walk soon, get out of the house, seeing as we have to miss mums group cause of Ash's hand foot mouth business.
At least she ate bit lunch today so might be on the mend.
I'm gonna have to jump on the bandwagon and change my ticker too!
This is probably going to be a random post because Im in a bad mood (someone wont nap today ) and trying to remember what everyone has said.
Maz - Im happy to hear your Mum is showing signs of being her old self again. I cant believe they discharged her though, I hope she continues to get better and better hun *big hugs*
Shell - Is it nice weather in Melb? Its ok here, sunny but still a bit chilly. Im itching for warmer weather so Jett and I can go on picnics and walks, he wa sa bit small to do the whole play outside thing last summer. I hope Ash gets better soon.
Vix - I hope your Dad gets there ok. What is he having done?
Jodi - Im jealous of your B&B stay, Ry and I have done it a few times but not since J was born. Its nice to have even just a night as a couple. What # anniversary is it? I hope you get the Eternity ring. Maybe leave a Prouds catalogue open with "scribbles" about eternity rings being nice on it Way to go on Nina's swimming! Im a slacker, I never put J in swim classes, I really need to ring and get him in now in time for summer.
Rach - hope everythings getting better for you *big hugs*
Helen, Nelle - Hi Hi How are you guys?
Belle - are you staying in a facility or only doing day program? I hope it gets you over the final hurdle on your road to recovery. Im going out on a limb here in sharing this but I spent 3mths in a Mood Disorders Clinic just before I met Ry and it was the best thing I ever could have done. I would not hesitate to do it again if needed so kudo's to you for taking that step, your a strong woman and Im proud to know you!
So we arent napping today apparently, must have missed that memo. Its is annoying me because he is T-I-R-E-D. Stinky too as I guess he is trying to indicate by sitting by my chair Jett has learnt a new word - nonononono - and shakes his head while saying it. Fun times are beginning methinks. He is 10mths going on 5 years old lately attitude wise.
Better go change Toxic Boy before we pass out from the fumes. BBL.
