[*noni*e*]

afternoon everyone
gee its quiet in here today hope its coz everyones having a lovely easter
Asha and i met Katie and Logan today which was very exciting!! Logan is such a cutie, its funny how much bubs seem to differ from there photos, photos just dont do them justice!!! was great to put a face to a name if u know what i mean..
had a bbq lunch this avo at my mums place and probably ate too much chocolate lol ohhhh well what can u do?? Asha has been spoilt as usual.. mum and her husband got her a book, t shirt and some socks.. my nan and pop left a present for her when they were there briefly which was a bunnykins spoon and fork and a lovely easter card!! i know my dad and his g/f have her a bunnykins mug with an egg in it and we got her a peter rabbit egg cup with egg in it lol then we are seeing dps family tmw lol..
was just thinking asha has so much nice stuff stored away it would be nice to get a cabinet or something to put it all in.. shes got a bunnykins mug from when she was born as well as the one she is about to get one expensive cuttlery set (forget the brand right now) the bunnykins spoon and fork the egg cup lol shes sooo spoilt!!!
haley - ohh watermellon i bet she loved that!! i couldnt give her that atm as she eats in her bouncer lol and even though it is machine washable she does need her bouncer alot lol or want it anyway and i worry about washing it (i do wash it lol but it has to be at a carefully selected time lol).. we are probably going to ikea tommorrow though to get her a high chair so that will sort that problem!! asha has only had apple and pear in it so far i am wondering what i will put next??
charlismumma- gosh i am glad we didnt get delayed when travelling to melb coz u know what i never thought of bring extra feeds lol oops that could have been a disaster!!!
sherie - we didnt do anything on good friday lol i sat at home eating chocolate when i shouldnt have been lol i have about ten points to make back before i am even on even little own losing weight for my wi this week lol..
HAVE A HAPPY EASTER MUMS BUBS AND FAMILY

Hi Noni! that would have been great to meet Katie and Logan - did either of you get a pic? My plan for eating chocolate is basically eat all I can tomorrow and by monday I will be over it all LOL and not want anymore

LOL Hayley, I hope the IL's visit goes painfree The easter bags are just brown paper bags that the kids decorate and leave them out for the easter bunny. Lindsay is being quite clever and telling the girls tht the easter bunny is just me, but they wont have a bar of it and I told him to keep his trap shut because no one likes a smart-alec LOL.

Tamara, one thing I did think of was with the formula, just check with the airline what their policy is on taking it on board - there have been instances where women have been made to tip bottles out (both EBM and formula). I would be just taking the formula with me as asking for water on the plane JIC kwim? do you have a formula dispenser at all? if you don't, go and grab one before you go.

Its all happening here - Alister has a tooth about to come through! I was really surprised because the earliest any of the other three have gotten teeth was 8mths so I wasn't expecting them for a while yet, and there's been no teething poos either - the other three all had these nasty horrible teething poos (really runny and caustic on their botties and gave them bad nappy rash) and he hasn't had that, but they have been a bit stinkier than usual. That said it will probably go back down again LOL because its pushing on the gum, but hasn't quite broken the skin yet.

wow noni- that's great you got to meet up with katie and logan. i wish we all could meet up one day, it would be so fun. have you got pics together? don't stress about eating choc, that's what easter is all about

sherie- sorry i forgot to answer your question awhile back about our deck- it is probably about 3metres high. dp has been working really hard to get it finished before lewis starts crawling. unfortunately yesterday though he got gastro and was really unwell- he went to bed at 5pm poor thing.
i never knew that about teething poos. lewis had some real stinkers for a while there. they seemed sort of stringy too. is Alister's tooth at the bottom?
have you eaten your lindt bunny yet?? i love lindt

hayley- have fun at the footy tonight. sorry we stole judd
is ben cousins playing again? he's such a spunk. best of luck with the ILs. mine are coming in a couple of weeks ggrrr

[Trillian]

I haven't eaten the lindt yet. I will give it a bit longer before the easter bunny visits LOL. But it has rained here a bit so we can't do the egg hunt now. The kids wont mind though.

Gracie, I hope your DP recovers soon. Yep, sounds like a teething poo to me - definately runny and stringy looking. I spoke too soon about Alister not having them - he did one not long after I posted on here about it lol. It is on the bottom, and I managed to have a look tonight when he was in the bath and it looks like both bottom ones are about to erupt, but he could go on like that for ages yet.

How is this for a coincidence? Last night I watched The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy on DVD and its just come on TV on ch 7 but I can't be bothered staying up to watch it tonight

Hope the Easter Bunny comes to visit you all

HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!

Hope you all have a great day!

I'm just wondering if I can please get some help/opinions on Charli's latest sleeping habits.

Okay, I have been really really lucky that Charli has slept through the night since she was 11 weeks old (approx 7pm to 6am). And I kind of figure that has been a trade off as she's never been a good day sleeper. But the last week she has been starting to wake. It was happening just once a night in the earrly hours of the morning but Friday night it was twice and last night is was FOUR TIMES between 12.30am and 4.30am. She doesn't seem to be teething yet or hungry. She winges a bit so I get up to check on her and I go in and she's wide awake and gives me a big smile as soon as she sees me. She has started to move around the cot heaps so she's sometimes either stuck on her tummy (she hasn't figured out how to roll back yet) or she's sideways with her leg stuck through the bars or something when I go in there. So I tuck her back in, put her dummy in her mouth and tell her to go back to sleep. Sometimes she goes back to sleep straight away and sometimes I have to go back in a couple of times.

I can't figure out any real reason why she is waking up and because I've been so spoilt with a full nights sleep for so long it is driving me a little nutty

Any suggestions???

OMG we have a whole shelf of chocolate in our fridge!!! its crazy!!!
went to ikea this morning to get a high chair for asha too so we will be using it for tmw mornings breaky will be interesting.. gonna put the bouncer cover through the wash soon as we wont b using it for feeding now well except that i give her her bottle in it now but thats not as messy as food!! ive been teaching asha to hold her own bottle.. shes doing really well with it actually u just have to watch her atm because she sometimes dosnt tip it up high enough and u need to correct it so she dosnt suck air.. what a clever chicken
charlismumma - wish i could help but it must be an age thing because asha is doing that too.. waking up a few times stuck on her tummy or up on her hands and knees i usually just give her her dummy and she goes back to sleep but it is a pain and it does make u feel tired dosnt it!! hope someone has some good suggestions for us!!
gracie n sherie - there is pics of logan and asha might post them tmw will let u all know
