Wow it's been busy on here today! i always miss heaps on the day i have mum's group!!
Noni: man, i have to say that i really appreciate the days that i HAVE with leila AND the days that she is at CC! it gives me a chance to enjoy the time i have with her more and the time she is away is time for me. DH and I use one friday a fortnight when is in care for 'couple day'. we go to the movies, have a bath and basically just lounge around. i love it and i think it is great for leila as she has refreshed parents for the W/E IYKWIM?
also re the loud noises some of the mums just today were mentioning that their bubs were starting to be 'scared' of loud stuff and would scream hysterically. maybe it's an age thing?
Pregpan: glad to hear the little Noah is on the mend. i hear you the nights being the worst! at least during the day we have the distraction of activities but at night and with the cold setting in, everything is exacerbated. i know that this week that i have been sick i dreaded the nights as my throat hurt more and exhaustion would just set in.
And for what it's worth, i just bought leila some brauer 'recovery tonic' to help boost her system as she has been hit with a swag of boogies and germs. maybe N could try something like that to help his system recover???
Arte: yeah i am hoping they dont take too long. both the bottom ones are competing to come through first. they are almost there...just bought some weleda teething powder and that seems to have calmed things down a bit.
we are still waiting on a spot with the behaviour guy. he specialises in the breed (maremma) that we are pretty sure stella is a cross with. but i went to the vet (for her cough yesterday) and there are group activity sessions in the local park for the doggies, and i think that it may be fun for her and get her more used to strange situations. (i think she is in too much of a rut!! LOL!)
what did the dr say to do about the eczema? i remember having it pretty bad as a kid and had to cut down on milk stuff. but then when i hit the teenage years it disappeared! weird stuff!
(just an update: leila has just found a banana in her nappy bag, peeled it and is now laughing hysterically at how smart she is while stuffing the whole thing in her face!)
MD: yeah i thought the ending was pretty badly orchestrated. there were more than 30secs there where things just weren't happening and i dont find staring at the back of terri's head, all that exciting television! LOL! i watched a bit of every season. and watched the whole first one as i was a first year media student and it was required as part of our course work! aahhh i LOVED those BB lectures!!
Leanne: i find it really weird when they leave so early in the morning. my DH does the same when he goes to wollongong. i am contemplating if it would be better for him to leave the night before as the morning is always hectic and he invariably wakes L up...hhmmm
Cally: glad your DH is ok!
AFM: well same old same old. leila is ready to burst two teeth. is anyone elses bubs really destructive?? leila loves bashing things, tearing things and throwing things ATM. i am finding it a real PITA as the other day she threw her tommee tippee and broke it, and with the price they charge for them i was not happy!
oh and we picked up some bargains on sunday: i LOVE melbourne for this reason...we went to the PureBaby wharehouse sale!!!!! it was so frikkin awesome!!! i bought truckloads of stuff including twin sets for $10, gorgeous frocks for $8 and countless cardigans and onesies for $8-10!!! i bought up the bigger sizes for summer and am feeling rather proud of myself!!
