    This dyson sounds excellent! I have a $100 hunk of junk, but it does a reasonable job hehe. What is tde btw?

    I'm so far behind with everyone, the past few days I feel as if I have been going non stop. So I've quickly skimmed over the posts.

    Maddie's 1st tooth is still slowly coming through & she has actually been very good about it. I had expected a lot more fuss, but its already poking through with not much hassle. Maybe the worst is yet to come!? lol. The poor thing has a terrible looking rash still. I've found the nurofen to work but I'm the same as everyone else, I dont particually like giving too much medication but at the same time its heartbreaking to see them in pain.

    We took Maddie to a park on the weekend and popped her on the baby swing. Well she was absolutely swamped by a group of Japanese tourists who were fascinated by her on the swing. They all held her and posed for photos. DP and I were babyless there for about 20 mins while she got passed around! They couldnt believe she has blue eyes lol.

    Gracie - Did you win the dyson in the end? I'm not much into my teaching degree, and I'm only doing one unit so I havent done any pracs yet. Its seriously going to take me 10 years to complete and this rate.

    Leanne - Such a lovely story, you are truly blessed with your beautiful family.

    Sherie - Ouch Alister's gums sound very painful!

    Arte - So DH gave you a hard time about the 'dirty' floors so you got revenge by buying a dyson!? Love it! Cant believe what the nurse said to you, they really know how to make us mothers doubt ourselves and fill our heads with worry. I hope it went in one ear and out the other.

    Agnes - Men and cars....dont get me started. My DP is a car fanatic and it doesnt help that he works in the car industry. Will sounds so cute with his car toy! Also have you trimmed Will's nails? I often find Maddie has a good scratch during the night if her nails are getting long, so when trimmed she doesnt do much damage. Does Will have excema too? It does tend to get a bit itchy. The doctor can prescribe cortisone cream which clears it up really well, but I barely use it apparently its not a good thing to use too often.

    I feel a bit slack not getting to personals for you all, but hello to all you other lovely ladies. I hope you are all doing well and bubs are letting you get a decent sleep! I need to go to bed, i'm exhausted and i'm even going to miss my beloved ladette to lady!

    've just cleaned the whole house except the floors cos i just don't want to waste my time with my stupid old useless vacuum anymore
    LMAO Gracie, it was that exact attitude that got me a dyson!

    Haley, TDE is Total Dyson Envy lol, seems to be a common complaint in this thread. Funny what excites the Japanese tourists isn't it - DH and I worked on an orchard during summer at uni and his job was bird shooting. The orchard had a big shop that the tourist buses stopped at and when they were there DH would walk past with the gun over his shoulder and they would all duck and scream and then start taking pictures. I wasn't worried about what the nurse said, I am just upset because I need help and there is no one to help me.

    Sherie, I am a first time mum and so I can live in my self-deceiving bubble - I won't need to clean up puke from the carpet because if W happens to get sick (very unlikely) he will politely spew into a sick bowl lol

    MD, I haven't seen avent around here, but we are pretty isolated so I might look next time we are in a bigger town (have to go on a mission to get W a pair of shoes this weekend). Hope the osteopath works, sounds promising!

    My potential new friend arrives this weekend. Our neighbour has moved from South Africa and his wife is coming to join him. They have a little one year old girl so I have offered to take them to my playcentre. DH and the dad work together and he seems really nice.

    Better go have a shower while I can

    Sherie - She was in a really good mood so she had lots of smiles for the tourists. She seemed to love the attention...uh oh. OH NO I hope Maddie doesnt spew on the floor but maybe I am living in a bubble as well lol.

    Arte - Oh I hope your neighbour is nice!! Would be great to have a friend right next door.

    Leanne - Glad you enjoyed your night out with the girls.

    Agnes - I know I am constantly trimming her nails too. Bummer that the cortison cream and sorbolene isnt working. I hope the QV moisturiser does. & yes I did end up watching ladette to lady but I am so tired this morning haha.

    Pregpan - Enjoy your 4 day weekend with DH at home, you lucky thing.

    *squeals in delight* The magical mystical weleda powder arrived today in the mail LOL. I think I will be shattered if it doesn't work.

    LOL Noni, I thought it was a problem on my end - fb froze on me so I closed it and went to bed. Yep the vax does the carpet shampooing and its been worth its weight in gold - not only for the vomit but all the other spills and mess that comes with kids too.

    Leanne, what I wouldn't give to have a hot meal LMAO.

    Agnes, aqueous cream is really good too, quite heavy and not that easily absorbed by the skin, so it stays moist for longer than using normal stuff. It is cheap as chips from the chemist.

    Hayley, I wanted to watch ladette to lady too, but got sidetracked on here LOL.

    Pregpan, thats great DH is home for 4 days now. Definately book Noah in for daddy day care and do something nice for yourself.

    Oh Arte, make the most of living in that bubble - because it will burst sooner or later LMAO. Lindsay is a shocker - he won't spew in a bucket for some reason and would rather do it on the floor or wherever if he doesn't make it to the loo in time *yuck*.

    Hayley, I suppose they don't see blue eyes in Japan apart from tourists/westerners etc. How cute that they all wanted a cuddle though, was she OK with that?

    Alister had another somewhat reasonable sleep last night. I actually think the teething has settled for now as he doesn't seem quite as irritated as he was a few days ago.

    Thanks all for the encouragement on the charts. It does bother me sometimes cause 3 percentile seems a bit low. Guess I shouldnt be worried, as long as he is healthy and happy.
    His exzema can be really bad when teething (the thing is he is teething all the time!!!) and the dr even gave me some strong steroid based cream for when its really bad. I am still using cortisone cream and sorbolene quite regularly but he still scratches. Usually in the morning we can find some dry blood on his neck or ears from the scratching

    Sherie, thanks. I only bath him with almond oil (and sometimes gaia). I think I need stronger moisturizer (I only used sorbolene) so i will buy the qv one. He has outgrown all his bodysuits, thx for reminding me, I need to get some for winter. Glad to hear A slept well last night.

    Arte, probably there is something about the name lol Yay on the new friend

    Gracie, did you win the bid? Sending some dyson vibes lol The portacot sounds great

    Hayley, LOL at the tourist, I can totally picture that I am sure that must be because Maddie is so cute and lovely that they want to take photos with her. I trim his nails every week, they grow so fast! Even with short nails, he does a lot of damage to his skin lol. Did you end up watching the show? Probably tape it next time

    Pregpan, yay on the holiday

    Hi to everyone else
