as for food atm Asha is having rafertys multigrain breakfast with apricot, banana and iron and seems to eat more of it each day and we have just recently introduced another meal in the avo shes been having avocado but ive got some pumpkin for today that i need to steam up for her and mash
asha has been showing a clear preference for her left hand lately which i thought was interesting!!!
ohand dp just got a phone call and he got a permanent job!! the one hes doing atm is labour and although we thought there was a chance of permancy it looks like there might not be.. but anyway he applied for a job completely out of his normal stuff its with centacare helping ppl with disabilities find jobs and he got it he was so desperate to get out of labour and get something a little more mentally stimulating and finally it happened for him and he starts monday as well as that my cousin and her boyfriend who were living in darwin have moved down here and are looking for a place and asked us to move with them! we are looking at a place tmw pretty full on!! ad she thinks she is pregnant as well lol its all happening down here!!!
renee - cant find the pics ur talking about? congrats on the 1kg still doing the shakes? how are u finding them?

[reneenay]

Just uploaded them Yep still on the shakes. Its not too bad I guess (for now), im finding the healthy eating side of it the hardest though. Carrot and hommus for a snack....what the! Gawd I miss my crumpets and Veggiemite LOL!

Noni - well done to DP on getting a job, he must be so pleased. And good news about moving out with your cousin.

Jaz - hope H's eyes clear up soon. Shame you had a bad night last night, could the conjuntivitis be to blame or was she still windy?

Sherie - nice av!

MD - we will be up for Easter, not sure if I will hang around for the extra few days.

She's been an energiser bunny this morning - only had a 30 min nap before I put her down at 1:40 - hadn't seen a tired sign, but just had a feeling, she didn't even cry, I think she was asleep before I walked out of the room!

Now to catch up on some TV shows and have a relaxing cuppa!

Hi Girls,

Renee- Rory is a little cutie. Congrats on the weight loss.
Noni- Congrats to your DP on the job.
Cally- Enjoy your mumma time.

Well I wonder who will be in my bed tonight. Oh I was thinking I might get Olivias ears pierced on sat. Other than that I think I will be just relaxing as I have some pretty full on weekends coming up. Bye for now

Have a wonderful weekend everyone.

[Cally]

So much for my relaxing time!! She only did another half an hour and then later this afternoon I had to take her for a walk and she only slept for 15 minutes. So all up today she's had 1.25 hours - that's ridiculous.

[Leemar]

Cally- hopefully she will have a good sleep tonight. My boys use to have what I call bubba naps all day but they would sleep all night.

[Trillian]

I could have swore I posted yesterday not to matter.

Leanne, did you get Olivia's ears done today? If so how did she go with it?

Cally, how was your night last night hun? I hope she starts to get more regular with her sleep soon for you.

Renee, thats a great weight loss. I couldn't do the shakes though, I like my food too much LOL. And what a little goer Rory is getting up on his hands and knees like that.

Noni, that's fantastic news DP got a job. I really hope that this will ease some of the tensions between you. How did you go with the house-hunting?

Jaz, has H settled now since her bowen? I feel bad that she had a rought night seeing as how I suggested it to you. IKWYM about having to get them all out of the car.

I think I am at the tail end of my cold now. I feel better, but still have a chesty cough and snotty nose (so gross). When I was in town yesterday for preschool, half the town seems to have it too. Thanks for the comments on my new av. I was just doodling around the other night and thought I would do a new one - I felt naked without my tractor and decided to put the kids in instead.

Huge Hello to everyone else - hope you are having a great day.

sherie - we are applying for one house which is really nice, 4 bedrooms so atm we will be in the one bedroom and have one for storage and then later asha can move in there.. two lounge rooms, well one lounge and one family room but they are about the same size anyway.. nice big back yard etc etc.. we are hoping to get that one and stop looking and just move in lol but it dosnt always work that way i suppose lol...
leanne - thats what asha is like 20 minutes here and there during the day but she does sleep through the night..
cally - did katie end up sleeping for u?
renee - such cute pics.. wow and i though asha was nearly ready to crawl but looking at those pics i think she has a long way to go yet lol oh well..

hi everyone! well we are back from melb - had a good week but man it is exhasuting and it actually gets harder as N grows up...
got back yest, he was quite unsettled last night so hope today is ok. i have girls coming round for a few glasses of wine at 4 so i am hoping he will have at least 1 sleep before then. dh is home tomorrow - YAY! 8 nights has really dragged on.
solids are going well - he has been having 1 serve per day - about 1-2 tbsp max.. i am upping to 2 serves per day - fruit in morning and veges in afternoon. how does that sound? i also got some yoghurt and baby custard that i thought i would try out soon... he is 6 months this week so i guess i can get a bit more adventurous. he had pear most of the time in melb and loved it. i stewed and pureed peach for him this morning and he wolfed that down too!
i have decided i need to get more hardcore w sleeps during day - was around heaps of bubs in melb and he is the only one with no sleep pattern during day. how do you all get bubs to sleep in day? he just wont do it. i was ok w this when he was a gem at night but now that is changeable too and so i think we may have a prob on our hands! i have to get himw eighed soon so i will ask the nurse but you know my views on that LOL! he has been having around 2 feeds in the night for ages now - enough!
no teeth here yet - but they have been coming up and going down. and no sign of crawling. he is v close to sitting though.
what toys do you all have? ia m thinking it may be time for one of those fisher price activity centres or something.
had some good convos re work and it is now quite certain that i will go back in april. i now need to decide global or local job and 3,4 or 5 days. so i better get care sorted asap LOL!
sorry no personals - i have read whats been happening but too much to catch up on so i will start again.
hope you are all having a great weekend.
