Thanks so much for all the birthday wishes for Alister! He had a great day. We had to go to Wagga that day, so I brought a few extra things for his birthday LOL - They have all the 'in the night garden' merchandise out now and I brought him a small Ninky Nonk train and a Leap Frog barnyard thing where you put the animal halves in to make a match and they make aminal noises and sing songs. He LOVES his tractor - it was funny when he was unwrapping it and the older kids were trying to help him and he kept pushing their hands away LOL. (Cally I didn't end up getting the Radio Flyer wagon as it was proving to be a nightmare to get one and with the dollar dropping they were getting dearer too as they are all imported into Aus). Anyway it was a very big day emotionally for me - no more first birthdays for us . And he's just growing so fast that every little thing he does is so special. I'm so lucky to have him.
Oh, and the sleeping has gone to crap again too LOL. As bad as it was before, but last night was great - only one wakeup when DH's alarm went off at 4am for work, but I put his dummy in and he went right back to sleep. I'm hoping that signalled the end of the bad sleeping. And last night we had a two word sentence!!!! I was in the shower with him and we were just finished and DH came in to get him from me to get him dressed and he said "hewo Dadda" Like Elmer Fudd would say hello, it was amazing, we both looked at each other and said 'did he just say what I think he said?"
morning everyone
feeling sorry for myself this morning - dh left at 6am for a week...
i hope the week goes quickly!
trill - how totally gorgeous A saying hewo daddy!! that is soooo cute!!!
he is such a delightful little guy! i am also coveting a radio flyer ride on... hmmm maybe when i can think of another occasion!!
Pregpan, you'll be so busy yourself that the week will be over before you know it I see too that you're dipping your toes into the TTC forums - it's very exciting to see all you first time Mum's go around the second time.
sherie- ninky nonk sounds great! lucky boy. i can't believe he says 2 word sentences, that's amazing.
pp- i'm so happy you're sort of sharing your ttc journey with us. it's exciting
photo session with lewis went avsolutely awesome this morning. some of the most beautiful photos ever!!!
i'll post you some when i get the disk in the next few weeks
Rainy, glad the pics turned out well, can't wait to see them
Trill, that is so clever of A to say hello daddy! Glad he had a happy birthday, must be so sad knowing he is your last.
Pregpan, I have been stalking the TTC thread for the last couple of months but haven't actually posted. I see Ella is in there too. I am on my third cycle TTC but it just isn't working - I don't ovulate until cd24-28 and then I get af 5-6 days later. It is very frustrating. Hope you have better luck than me.
We had a fantastic day out on the boat today. William loves it, I am amazed that he can keep his balance to walk around while the boat is on the water. We parked at a little beach and DH buried W's legs in the sand - he thought it was fantastic, kept scooping up more sand to cover himself.
Arte - have you thought about trying chinese medicine (herbs, acupuncture)? as you know i ama big advocate of it, used for labour (and v happy with that outcome) and now using to get cycles under control and help with ttc. i dont think 3 cycles is much (it took me 12 months to get preg w noah) so def nothing to worry about but if you are impatient like me and want to do something proactive maybe that is something to think about? I wasnt going to post in the ttc threads, i guess the secret is well and trule out now LOL!!! i just got too excited about it all... in fact we werent even meant to be officially trying this mnth but then DH and I both got really excited about the prospects so we are!!! i am of course thinking it will take a long time again, but just like last time evennow i am excited and nervous and hopeful. i am not really looking fwd to the emotional rollercoaster!! V exciting ella is in there too - i was missing her!
Will sounds so clever... sometimes i hear about all the tough boys in here and i wonder if N is behind.. he is still commando crawling!!!!
Rainy - cant wait to see the piccies of your gorgeous man. we really need to get professional ones of N done, yes i have been meaning to do that since he was born (oh and belly shots which i never did - though that was bc i felt a lot less glam than i was hoping)
. And he's just growing so fast that every little thing he does is so special. I'm so lucky to have him.
I see too that you're dipping your toes into the TTC forums - it's very exciting to see all you first time Mum's go around the second time.
