Arte - I've really noticed a lot of new things happening this week:
- really understands when I say 'time for milk' (mouth opens, claws at my top etc)
- mouth also opens when saw 'drink' for her sippy cup
- turns the pages in her books, lifts the flaps and is able to sit still to read them
- kisses
- claps
- when she is about to do something she shouldn't she gives me a cheeky little grin first
This afternoon she pulled the bag with rusks in it from the nappy bag and when I said 'what have you got there?' she gave a little squeal and went racing across the carpet not letting go of them. I chased her and she was loving it. So cute.
Definitely doesn't understand no though. I must have said 'No K, we don't play with the rubbish bin, it's dirty' about 15 times yesterday. And each time a tantrum when I moved her away and gave her something else to play with.
MM - carrot and zucchini bake sounds good!
Katie - yay for aunties!! Another little one to spoil.
Falguni - yay for tiles / floorboards, that could have been very messy.
Think i need to go check out that online store you're all talking about. For homemade different kind of kids clothes and toys i have been surfing etsy alot. Some gorgeuos stuff. OMG pregpan, i just checked out the ittybittyyuppy, some of the stuff is adorable! I am very lucky to have a granny who loves to spoil her only granddaughter, will have to show her that site.
Clare- How exciting Leila standing on her own, we're not quite there yet. Lu has worked out how to bend over and pick something up as well as how to lower herself down and stand back up, so she looks like a jack-in-a-box, up, down, up down all day!
RF- @ your DH calling him chunk! Reminds me of goonies. 'sloth loves chunk' We started with kisses, if you're not carful you get a bite. watch out. Your little man is a star, cover boy now eh? Lu will be eyeing him off for sure!
Pregpan, your poor little man, coughing so much that you vomit is never nice. Was it in here that someone posted that panadol apparently supresses a cough? Hope he is on the mend. That is great that your Dr has caled everyday, how thoughful.
Art- i never though of that, i am going to have start using her name a little more, wow about the little girl who thought her name was you. That's a bit cute, she must have been sooooo confused.
Cally- We have a really sturdy wooden trolley that doesn't tip. Lu loves it, cruises up and down the hall all day. If you hire a light one and it is light, someone recommended wrapping a brick and putting it in, so it is more stable.
Trillian- Sounds like you have a real little character on your hands there. Haha, hiding behind his own hand! cute. Gymbaroo sounds dangerous, dare i look?
MM- i'd be interested in the recipe too. Surf clothes are studiply over priced hey? they do last ok though. Even the outlet stores are overpriced these days. Nice of your mum to stock up for you. What a trendy little girl you'll have.
Ange, yes you should check it out LOL. Their stuff is quite reasonably priced I thought and the conversion is great ATM too so I am taking advantage.
I could never get into the shoe thing with the kids as they have such wide feet and high insteps, so shoe shopping is always a chore and I could never buy shoes online for them without trying first.
Hello to everyone.
Pregpan- Hope N is feeling better soon
RF- congrats on Lewis being on front cover... WTG Lewis.... OMG about the trees falling down... Hope all is well and love your new name but why the change...
Renee- Yep panadol and dimetapp is ok to give together. my dr recommends dimatap for all colds. Hope Rory is better soon.
Katie- Congrats to you on becoming an Aunty again.. and congrats to your SIL
Plans for the Big Birthday Party is coming along nicely but I am so busy this week and I hurt my back on monday well I think Xavier hurt it when he was in bed with us on Sunday night but on monday morning I could hardly walk. Its still sore now but way better then it was on monday. I think I am more excited then the boys... hehehehhehe. Any way I better go as I am suppose to be watching the fooz ball with DH and the boys are still up and running a muck. Talk soon xxxx
Leemar - Oh no sorry to hear about your back & hope it gets better quickly. Are you watching the footy with the celebritys & old players in it? Did anyone watch it last night? I was peeing my pants at Peter Hellier with his blonde mullet & spray tan, I think he was taking off Warwick Cappa?
Cally - Wow go Katie! I am in awe at what everyone's bubs are doing atm.
The very easy carrot & zucchini bake recipe is:
2 zucchinis grated
2 carrots grated
1/2 a brown onion diced
2 tbs of olive oil
1 cup self raising flour
Half a cup of cheese
Pinch of pepper or seasoning of choice
5 egg yolks
Mix ingredients together & pour into a greased baking tray & cook until golden.
Very easy & it went down well with Maddie.
I got the recipe from taste dot com and I altered it a bit, it originally wanted a cup of cheese, 4/5 zucchinis (which I thought would be zucchini overload & many people had mentioned that in the rating bit), half a cup of olive oil, & 5 eggs (changed that to yolks obviously for bubs). So I kinda made it less fattening and more healthy for a baby to eat, let alone my butt which doesnt need any more fat on it hehe. The good thing is I have some left so I've put it in the fridge for tomorrow's lunch.
