AFTER i spent a small fortune there.. today i bought 2 dresses, a v casual tracksuity one and also a gorgeous tailored denim one (good for work on non meeting days and for casual). i also bought a sut there a week ago..

hey there i just wanted to jump in and quickly say that anyone having trouble getting bubs to sleep should try a sleep cd!! i bought a lullaby cd for asha made by fisher price for ten bucks from target the other day and its made a huge difference for us.. we are three days into using it and i have managed to get her to sleep all three nights in her bed (previously we would let her fall asleep in the bouncer and carefully put her in bed).. i stay next to her as long as she is laying down quietly, if shes naughty and getting up i leave for 5 minutes and come back and the second time ten minutes and come back but as long as shes laying and beeing good i stay next to her.. the first night i went out of the room twice and she went to sleep by the 6th song on the cd, the second night i only went out once and she was asleep by the 4th song on the cd.. drum roll please!!! tonight i didnt have to leave the room at all and she was asleep halfway through the 2ND SONG!!!!
she is still waking up and coming to bed with us but i dont mind as long as she sleeps a few hours in her cot atleast (atm shes doing 5-7 hours in her cot).. i am so excited we might be able to try and move her back to her own room in a few weeks if it keeps going well!!!
hope everyones doing well be back tmw for some personals..
OMG Kate! me too! they so should hook up! even if for just an episode...it's like the modern day scully and mulder! LOL!
we dont have probs putting L to sleep for the night but for the last 3 weeks she has been waking up in the early hours (1-3am) and refusing to go back to sleep without a feed grrrr! i am with you on the feed to sleep! it's my own fault, but doesnt make the reality any easier.
Noni: oohh i think i need that cd for the middle of the night rampages!
we used the hylands teeting tabs on alex .. & do you think a chemist wld have them around here! had to get the name from someone in QLD & get a chemist to especially order them.
yeah alex didn't like the panadol either. dymadon worked a treat with taste! now they usually have jadin's chemist own brand (when I have it in stock).
jack's not too bad going to sleep .. only if you try & put alex down with jack awake then its all on for jack. we, sorry, I have little probs with jack going down. just keeping him asleep during the night. decided last nite its time for him to start finding his dummy on his own at midnite instead of getting mum up every hour to hour & a half!
Cass -those hylands tablets are fantastic. They are omeopathic and I have heard so many people swear by them. They can be used in conjunction with anything else and just dissolve in bubs mouth. S justs pops them in and they dissolve away. My sister used to rub them on the gums but S just chomps on my finger instead. And yep, S is only about 8.5kg, getting her weighed again this thursday so will update you then. My nephew is 6.5months and outweighed her from about 5 months of age. He is such a buddha butt lol.
So true about Bones and Booth being modern day Mulder and Scully. Although I think the gender has swapped a bit as I see Bones being more the Mulder type person. I love this show but am having a hard time trying to keep my eyes open. Know where I can download episodes from...?
PP - don't stress...just visualise Bali, breathe in deeply and remember that we are all as jealous as hell!!! Hope you get everything ready in time and the herbalist gets you on track.
Noni - nice work...what was the cd called. I got her the celtic lullabies but for some strange reason its in the car (not being played). Might get that out tomorrow I've got my fingers crossed for you with that miracle cd!
I really like the ladybug one but think the mouse is super cute as well. I have a bit of a fascination with ladybugs but don't want to rub that off onto S...
