hello everyone - so much going on in here, i dont think i van even TRY to do personals LOL!!! Will answer what i remember and so sorry if i miss anyone/anything!
Jazmum - SO WONDERFUL to hear from you and enjoy the party!! It sounds GREAT! xxx
Sherie - i also love those radio flyer toys... and thanks MD for the tip, will pop into little red engine when i get back and get N one (maybe, if I dont spend too much in Bali!)
Noni - sorry about the fight, we all have them... did you go to the dinner? how is asha these days? more settled? have you been having some mama time?
Rainy - how you feeling??? how is L? have all the things you boght arrived and how did you hide them from DP???
Kate - congratson 400 posts... and may i say it is so nice to have you back! I missed you when you went AWOL!
Speaking of AWOL - WHERE IS RENEE????? Come back!!!! I miss you and want to hear how rory is!
I also really mis Queenie - MD are you still in touch with her?? Pls tell her i say hi and hope all is well with her and S. I miss ella too, but i dont think she has been on for AGES!
Geez I sound all nostalgic!!
For N's bday I havent bought a thing yet would you believe??? Dont worry I have been scoping things out - think i will get him a wheely bug and maybe a wooden walker with blocks or something like that. decided not to go too overbroard this yr as he wont know much.. and he will get lots from other people. My mum bought him a rocking horse which is on its way to us now.. and i know my SIL has also sent something...i love a musial idea - love the eukelele idea and may also get one of them and/or a wooden drum.. N LOVES music and both our families are v into music so i guess it is inevitable that i will have a house full of noise!
Having a good tme in melb, work has been busy but N is in such good spirits and so much fun.. have also benn bringing him into bed with me each night when he wakes around 11 or 12 for snuggles - hmmm is that for me or him??? it is lovely!! Busting to get to BALI.... 2 sleeps to go!!
lots going on. just briefly, L has been sleeping really well. will go for about 6 or 7 hours now without waking. it's great. i've decided not to go to sleep school. we just decided that we were on a bit of a good run atm and didn't want to confuse things iykwim? i know there are people desperately waiting on a list to get in so i didn't feel comfortable taking up a place when my heart's not really in it.
did everyone see L with his fake mum and dad? what did you think md??
i didn't think it was a very good shot of L- i suppose the mum and dad looked good though.
i got my cradle rock package- ohhh gorgeous. the oobi sizes seem to be a lot more generous this season. i bought him some boots in size 2-3 years and they are wayyy too big- he'll grow into them though. he got the cutest 2 sets of shorts omg!!! so far dp hasn't cottoned on- mainly cos my dad bought L a heap of clothes from myer the other day so i've just kinda mixed them all in together iykwim? dp is clueless about these things anyway. i can go to the hairdresser and get a full cut and colour and he won't even notice.
md- glad evrything seems to be getting a little better for H. have you been happy with that exec teacher?
pp- enjoy bali. i miss queenie and ella too. i miss liddle pixie as well. i was wondering about renee today- i might write her a msg on fb.
arte- do you mean you're going to buy a house? i'm confused!
what are you girls getting dh/dp's for fathers day????
Omg, i can't believe u guys have all gotten smart trikes!!! i got one of those fisher price kitchen set things....double sided...a few wooden toys that we've picked up, some new clothes...nothing rly spectacualr...I didch dolls! I love them, they're just adorable! I might get one...my partner isnt happy with the kitchen thing, he wants to get something different...tad spoilt by her daddy...
I'm attempting to plan a bday party at a park....i've spent so much money already and i haven't even ordered her a cake yet! GAH! I might get a cousin of mine to make one, she's quite nifty at that sorta stuff.
Chessa was and still is extremely stubborn,she wants it she gets it! or she falls asleep trying hehe...nah, she was an extremely strong premie. The midwife who helped deliver her asked me if i was very strong....i was just thinking...do i look strong with my flimsy arms? lol...I'm not the strong one, daddy is, why's that???
we were then told that Chessa was the physically strongest premie she has ever delivered! WOAH!!
Happy birthday Hannah for tomoro!
Congrats on the accomplishments, climbing on chairs and highchairs, chessa's doing that too, she thinks it's safe to climb from one rocking recliner to another....hmm...not when she ends up on her bottom on the ground hehe..(not the high) then she does it again!! I caught her this morning trying to climb from my bed to the bed side....:S
Firstly HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY HANNAH HAPPY 5TH BIRTHDAY TO ZOE
Rainy- Congrats to L for sleeping well
Cinta- Party in the Park sounds great
Pregpan- 1 more sleep till bali.... Have a wonderful time yippeeee
Ok so today I made a cake for Olivia daycare it was sort of a trial for sunday and it turned out ok. I is hot pink number 1 with her name running downwards. The boys thought it was great when they woke up this morning and decided the would get spoons for a taste test... lucky i got to them in time....
Well better go as I am only at work for half day cause I gotta get home and start to get things organised for Sunday.
Good morning everyone
thought i would jump on while Hanny is asleep.
Thanks for the birthday wishes for my little bubbashwubba I can't believe how fast the year has flown. I was in labour this time last year, trying my hardest to hold off using any pain relief.
We decorated our lounge room - every birthday we set up a pop-up tent and make a path leading up to it. I put party hats on the dolls and teddies and put the presents in the tent. I guess it will be our tradition for many years to come.
The girls loved the smart trike more than Hannah I think! I had to take it to school drop off this morning, 'cause they wanted to show off the birthday girl. I made Pikelets for brekky as a special treat, and Han had her first taste of Honey - she loved it.
Hi Cinta - I love the name Chessa - it's sweet.
Leanne - I hope your day goes smoothly on Sunday. I'll have a drink - (ooh i can now that i'm not breastfeeding) and think of you, maybe you'll be enjoying one too.
Rainy - I saw L in the catalogue - he still looks gorgeous - even the profile shot.
That's fantastic news that he is sleeping so well. Have you been doing anything differently. (sorry if you've already mentioned it - i haven't read any previous posts)
Pregpan -i know what you mean about enjoying the snuggles. I actually don't mind if Hannah wakes during the night - because i snuggle into her bed with her. (i've just put flannalette sheets on too so it's so cosy.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MISS CUTIE PAPOOTIE HANNAH!!!! I hope she has a wonderful day, Ilove the sound of your bday tradition - what a fantastic mum you are Jaz!
Happy Birthday Hannah!!! What a gorgeous way to do all the presents! Enjoy the party on the weekend.
Pregpan - I haven't bought any presents yet for K, my sister ordered the trike so we haven't even had to pay for that yet. I have been on a pretty strict budget for the last few months, but I think the credit card is going to get a bit of a work out in Canberra next week as there is lots that I want to get before I go back to work (which reminds me I should go and try some of my work pants on as I am a bit concerned they won't fit and I may need to get some more). Have a great time in Bali.
Rainy - glad that you are feeling better about L's sleeping, I'm sure there will be a very excited family when they hear they can go to sleep school earlier.
Apparently Blutac isn't toxic - K was chewing on some yesterday so I rang the Poisons line.
Kate - woohoo on finding a ladybug!
Arte - we just use cotton prefolds with Baby Beehinds covers. Very simple and cheap. Did you make the offer on the house? The housing manager sounds like a PITA.
Well I've just made a batch of chewy double chocolate chip cookies for DH and his friends that are coming around tomorrow to lay our new turf.
Leemar - have fun at your party on the weekend.
I put K's hair up in a little clip yesterday (not long enough for pigtails yet!) and she looked so adorable!
ETA - forgot to say that DH said he didn't want anything for fathers day, just a card, but he would cope if we bought him chocolate so I will do that. He is very difficult to buy for.
Happy Birthday Hannah...bit late...i hope she's asleep!
Have fun for her party. the tent idea is cute :P
Congratulations on trying to buy a house, good luck with the offer, i hope the owners accept the offer. There's a website that you can check how much the house was bought for, and it's value at that time i think. I'm sure if it's available to the public tho, my friends father owned a realestate agency.
JazMum- Where abouts in Bris are you?
Leemar- Are you in Rothwell? Are there any baby groups around here? I'm in Deception Bay for the time being, attempting to move back to Brissy. I'm desperate to get Chessa mixing in with other children around her age, but I don't want to take her to child care...
catch u later later, Oh! i saw those wheelie bugs, they're so cute!!! i only got to see the bumble bee n the mouse, but the mouse ssoooo won!! hehe, are they normally $80? that's an alright price if they're wooden.
HAPPY 5TH BIRTHDAY TO ZOE 
I can't believe how fast the year has flown. I was in labour this time last year, trying my hardest to hold off using any pain relief.
