LOLing at all the poo stories. Just you ladies wait until it's TT time! hehehe
Glad you got a decent sleep A. E didn't get up all night but I woke up exhausted this morning. Gotta drag myself out the door to take DD1 to see the Chihuahua movie . CHI HUA HUA!
Cally glad to hear K is at ease at childcare, hope it all goes well!
E says Dad and Daddeeee (esp upon seeing any man), she says "Ah" when giving cuddles, DoH for dog, Duh for duck, H'Nah for DD1 and has said clear as a bell Mummeee but doesn't use it very much. I'll scratch around for the list - being words they recognise at this stage rather than spoken words...
Rainy, ah sorry to hear your DP is being a DH again. I wish i could crawl inside his skull and give his brain a good slap or two. Does he not know how upset he's making you?? (doesn't he know that even if it's because of your pg hormones it's Still His Fault!!! LOL) Hope things smoothe over there soon.
Trill, hope the kids are better today, I bet you're loving your vax right now . Hope you got a decent sleep and are well yourself.
morning everyone
well we had a better night, though not as good as some of you LOL! he needed afew settles earlier in the night but then slept from 11 to 6 - happy with that! I think he is the naughtiest non sleeper in here sometimes! I am also listening to all your walkinh stories with wonder - he is still mastering crawling! he is basically commando crawling still - i dont think he is ever going to get his tummy off the ground and crawl 'properly' - he is gettinga lot faster and more 'adventurous' though so he is progressing! he does talk a lot and do other things so i am guessing he just has been focussing on different things... well i hope so anyway!
Rainy - hope you also had a better night. Ange - glad you did. howis the MS?
The poo stories are hilarious - none in the bath here yet... buti ams ure it will happen
Kate - i always usedto feed N on the plane... no probs there and no hosty has told me they have to sit that way all the time, just to be able to get them intothatpossie for brace if youneed it. hmmm... glad the flight went well anyway. N also loves the turbulence!
Cally - how are you adjusting to life as a working mum?
better go, heaps todo at work today
MM - Karmas a b!tch. I think I prefer the bath at least its easier to clean up. I hope it wasn't too feral.
MD - I love you calling it CHI HUA HUA. I had to call the bet for my MIL the other week and told the receptionist that I had a CHI HUA HUA that needs an appointment. Didn't even really think about it when i said it...its just what I call her dogs now. And of course the movie promos don't help. Anyway, the receptionist cracked up laughing and booked the little mutt in.
PP - Yeah, I'd say N is just wanting to be a talker first. S only has mumma and dadda as decipherable words at the moment. At least when they are still fairly immobile then you know where they are when you put them down ;p
I'm off camping this weekend. As 5 star as I can get at this place tho. Its an aircon cabin with fridge, toaster, kettle, bbq and beds!! Dh is going riding so I told him that I needed comfort while he was out having fun. Got a great friend coming as well whos in the same boat. Her DP is a rider and shes got a nearly 2 year old so we'll hang out while they go and most probably hurt themselves. Should be fun tho..wish me luck

: PP and I posted at same time
Kate, we used to go to the Pancake Manor on Friday nights and play pool at the bar downstairs. I loved it, but had to stop when W came along.
LOL at all the poo stories, W was a chronic bathtime pooer for a few months there. Every second night he would let one go lol. Didn't worry me too much because bathtime is DH's domain LMAO
Rainy, Poor Lewis! Glad to hear he is smiling again. That must have been horrible for you. Hope that your DP sorts himself out.
Trill, I can't imagine having multiple sick kids at once - Yuck!! Thanks for the info re speech. I was thinking I was going crazy hearing words that were never repeated. Good to know it is normal.
MD, good catch on the pink eye, glad you had a good MD day.
Cally, that is good that K likes daycare. Have you had your first pay yet? I bet that is exciting. It is the only part of work that I miss.
As far as words go, W has only the half dozen he started saying about 6 weeks ago. Any new words seem to be once off's. His standard ones are mum, dad, bub (all in context), duck, neigh, baa, maa (moo), meow, teeth (which is teeth, any brush or tube).
The other day he was having a BF and he looked up, touched my hair and said 'Pretty'. It was soo cute. He said it a couple more times since then too.
We went out for lunch the other day and he kept saying Neigh, I couldn't figure it out because there were no pictures of horses or birds (they say neigh too) then I realised he was looking at the giraffe on my milkshake cup. He is a clever bean.
Off to the IL's tomorrow so I probably won't be able to log on. Hope everyone has a good week.
Arte - wow, W has a lot of words! In a few months time, you'll probably be complaining that he never shuts up!! Wait until he starts saying 'why'. First pay day is today!! Will be nice having money again, not living off what DH gives me. Have a good trip.
Kate - sounds like the kind of camping I'd do!! Enjoy yourself.
DH took K down to the beach this morning. They were playing in an area that no dogs are allowed in, even if they are on the leash. Anyway, a red heeler came up and jumped on him, while he was holding K!!! Thank god he was holding her, I would have been freaking out, I'm not very good with dogs. He blasted the owner, she said she was sorry, she forgot it was school holidays (what that's got to do with anything I don't know seeing as K won't be at school for a number of years) and gave him her details. He called the rangers to report it. Thank god he was holding her and she wasn't on the ground, I hate to imagine what would have happened then.
Life as a working mum is OK so far. Helps having DH at home so I don't have to cook during the week. Will be another story when he goes back to work.
Work however is a different story - huge gaps in the files for the projects I am working on, things put in the wrong files, things still in emails that haven't been printed out etc. Thankfully the lady looking after my jobs is still around so I can ask her, but it makes it tricky.
Hope you are all enjoying this lovely weather - I have the window open (listening to the skateboarders come flying down the hill) with a gentle brreze and the heater under my desk keeping my little piggies toasty!
kate - the pool is from toys r us and the umbrella and stand were from big w.. the pool was only like 40 bucks i think and comes with the two sides so u can close it ip at night
cally - ohhh i am jelous it is soooooooo hot here today eeeek!!!
arte - wow clever boy!! and awwwww about him saying your pretty!!!
pregpan - ashas not walking yet either!! just happy speeding aound crawling.. shes completely uninterested when we try and get her to
md - aww i long for a night where asha dosnt get up at all!! how was the movie?
lol poo stories.. nothing too eventful here, touch wood!
anyways hope everyones doing well i best be off might bbl kisses and hugs to all!!
The Kids are A-OK today thankfully. Poor Alister was sooooo thirsty when he woke up this morning as he had nothing to drink after 6pm last night and anything he had earlier came right back up again. I think he would have drank near 500ml of water today plus a few bottles. I was up till 2am waiting for Lindsay and Paige to be settled enough that I could go to bed. But I had a 2hr snooze this morning with Alister on the lounge while the other three dozed on and off as well. So all's good for the time being.
Art - awww so cute about W saying pretty. As long as he keeps paying women compliments then he'll have no problem with the ladies...
Cally - I would have freaked out as well. Would have only been worse if the dog was a 'rougher' breed, like rotties. My sisters dog was a rottie and was the best dog ever but could get hyper and knock an adult off their feet. I'm with you about the WTF to the school holidays comment. The no dog rules apply year round! So lucky that DH had K in his arms.
Noni - Have a shopping trip to Toys R Us now! Sounds like a great price as well. The clam ones are about $40 also and Ashas is super cute.
Sherie - Glad to hear the kids are feeling better, just in time to go back to school for the older ones.
Well Sarah has been sooking in her cot for an hour now and refuses to go to sleep. Even though she was rubbing her eyes, yawning and grizzling before I put her in there. So frustrating. So off to try to get her down AGAIN
