LOL Gracie - you crack me up.... and then you have to explain the cradle rock parcel... ha ha. i use the time DH is away to shop - easier to sneak things in ha ha ha!! seriously you made me giggle, which is a good thing as i was sitting here having alittle cry and feeling sorry for myself as DH just left....
well we put together the hammock, it looks pretty cool. i told him it cost $180 and it was the only thing i am going to buy for the new baby (yeah, right!) and he was pretty cool with it....phew...
thanks girls.... next time we see DH wil be in Bali!!! thats a good thought... a week from now N and I will be on our way!!! a week of work and travel to melb and the flight stands b/n me and endless massages, ****tails, swimming etc.. BRING IT ON!
LOL Rainy - if yuo are having a girl i predict a blip on the national economy on the day you find out.... as IF the hammock is all you will buy LOL! but as long as you convinced DP....
Looks like N is getting another tooth... great....
so i have been scoping out what to get N for his bday... anyone who wants a wheelybug they are on sale on gr8 toys... i think we will get one for N.. also some other nice wooden toys... i am into toys we can keepfor his bday i think. i also thought maybe anice wooden walker... not sure what else (if anything) but i am loving the look of the brio wooden blocks too (all from a great site sendatoy)
well pp....now that i just went and checked out those 2 sites you mentioned, looks like there definitely will be a blip in the economy! are you going to get a small or large wheely bug? i've been looking for a wooden walker- i've found some on ebay from a store and they're $45 and $15 postage. not too bad i guess.
i can usually sneak new clothes into lewis' draw by saying that my dad bought them (cos he's always buying L clothes anyway). dp is pretty clueless about clothes anyway. everytime i ask him to dress Lewis he puts him in an aqua wondersuit....everytime....
you're going to have the best time in bali...ahhh massages....
i know! how awesome is sendatoy - i love EVERYTHING on there! i think a small wheely?? i think the big one is from 3 yrs.. so prob too big for our boys??
LOL at the clothes and the aqua wondersuit!! my DH is totally into the clothes - cant sneak a thing in - but he is worse than me sometimes with the buying for N as well!!
my mum bought N a gorgeous outfit today from seed for his bday party! i love their stuff!!
we went to questacon today with N, had such a good time - now DH and I want to get hom magnetic toys - these ones called magneatos... prob is they say from 2 yrs - what do you think? is there a prob w magnets and babies? he was enjoying them there today...
i have no idea about magnetic toys sorry! where do you get seed stuff from?
i really need to buy some clothes for me. lewis always looks hot and i look like mary-kate olsen in her 'i've just got my clothes out of a dumpster' phase, except that i'm fat and pimply too....
which wheely bug will you get? i like the lady bug and bee.
i'm so frigggin bored atm, i can't believe what a loser i am these days. i haven't even left the house today. dp brought red rooster home from work for dinner and then fell asleep in my rocking chair and hasn't moved since...
i think i'm getting cabin fever!! i want to come to bali...
ha ha ha!
I just bought the tiger for my nephew... so i may get a matching one for N... it is pretty cute but i am worried the ears on it will get dirty...
i like the cow too but DH reckons N will hate that i made him
i also need new clothes - will have to buy for bali - as dont have much summer. prob is i am really fat, have put weigh on lately...
yes seriously!! how funny is that? they said for me to enjoy my family time and they looked forward to seeing me in january 2015.
i bet you're not really fat...maybe you might be just holding a bit more fluid due to stopping breastfeeding or something??
what day do you leave for bali? are you home just you and noah right now?
2015 gosh I am jealous. The joys of working for the government hey!? As for your DH putting Lewis into blue wondersuits, my DP is the same. I have to lay out the clothing for him otherwise yes its a wondersuit!
Girls I just had a beautiful bday invite made on ebay for $10 for Maddie. I'm going to try and post it, I'll let you know if I do it. Not too cluey when it comes to posting things and trying to block out my ph numbers on the invite!
Hi ladies, thanks for all your support re the "H issue". I'm going up to the school to see the exec teacher (they have a person whose entire job it is to deal with such issues so the more I think about it it's something endemic at the school). Quite surprised she hasn't rung me after everything H said last week...
Pregpan. Chin up chicckie, you have BALI to look forwards to!!! Look it's sunday - it's NEXT WEEK already LOL. Re the magneatos, is it a choking concern (had a look online but can't work out how small the ballshaped pieces are)? Really small magnets can perforate their insides if they swallow 2 or more (that's why the polly pocket stuff was recalled last year) but these don't look little like that. Could you take the small bits out and just let him play with the big stick bits?
Rainy - ah cabin fever! Definitely shop some more over the internet, that'll fix it. Works for me . We've got E a buzzybee wheelybug, would've loved a ladybird but buzzy's next best thing. Plus it was a bargain. Also thinking of getting E a boikido walker, she already has a plastic fantastic but the boikido's more like a wagon that she can put things in, kwim? Also want to get some of their wooden blocks, they're just gorgeous. Really want the HABA ones but can't justify spending nearly $100 on a small set of wooden blocks. But they are even gorgeouser.
Dh shares the same fundamental inability to choose baby clothes. I've even laid them out before and he's still dressed her in the wrong thing LOL.
AFM, we went out for brunch today (only to escape DD1 nagging me to make pancakes when I'm actually feeling too exhausted) and I was happily feeding E bits of toasted blueberry bagel, thinking what a good idea the bagel was, when she suddenly sprouted a rash on her chin. *sigh* I gave her grapes yesterday, so along with the mandarine bum-rash it looks like she might be a bit sensitive to salicylates. Hoping this passes cos I'm sick of giving her apple and pear and banana, I was hoping to get her going on some other fruit. Looks like we might have to proceed a bit more slowly. Serves me right for eating too many mandarines when I was preggers I s'pose.
Thanks MD for the encouragement - have hada fun day shopping so we day 1 has passed ok...
he is teething again so a bit out of sorts... thx for saving that for me bubba.
I also meant to post about H yesterday - i am so sorry she is going thru that... let us know hwo you go at school. crazy they need a full time person for it,. but if that is the case she shojld have it sorted pronto i woulf think..
Bummer re the allergies... i am trying to think of some other fruits for E... i am quite lucky i guess that N has shown no allergy signs yet
thanks for the magneato tip too, i cant see a choking hazard, they are quite big bits...
i might hold off a bit anf then just take out any small bits if they do come with small bits...
off to check out those toys you mention... i like the HAB blocks too and the brio ones...
See Pregpan, shopping always works! - I've got as many weeks as you have days until our DHs are home - but trust me I know better than anyone that any absence is too long!
