Hi Girls
Well guess what? ...My mummy arrived yesterday. I nearly cried at the train station picking her up . But its so good to see her again. Missed her so much.
As for moving, I'm freaking a little bit but am praying for the best. My friend up here has offered to go around to the house and unpack for me . She has a 14 month old daughter and is willing to unpack my house for me. What a champ. I've told her no but she has insisted that she at least go around to the house and make sure Rory puts things in the right spots. I'm so grateful for meeting such an awesome girl up here. She and I have very similar interests and her DD and S are similar age so thats fantastic also. But I still think I'm going to be in for fun when I get home and try to figure out where everything is...
As for the beds...I hadn't even thought about putting Sarah in one. can't she just stay in there until shes like 5 or something? I guess once we're in our own place, things might be different in regards to her routines and sleep patterns. I'm still worried she'll roll outta bed. Shes not the most co-ordinated child.
Hi to everyone and sorry for no personals...hope you're all well
Noni, well done for getting rid of the catalogue thing - sounds like it wasn't going to be all that it was cracked up to be. Everyone loves Avon though. You should find out if there are some workplaces in your area that might let you drop an Avon catalogue off there - we always had one on the lunch table and ppl would order from that.
Cally if you want to meet up for a coffee and commisserate about the cold weather just let me know.
Arte, Good luck for your 09-09-09 bub! Hopefully the Vitex kicks in ASAP for you. I can't wait to hear how the new bed works out. All good I hope.
MM - Good news that the penny has dropped for your DP! It's soooo much a part of the whole bonding thing, I wish more men would twig that it's not just a chore.
Well I'm back to being a supermummy again for a couple of days while DH is away (AGAIN). I haven't had my fill of him being home yet so it was horrible waving him off this morning. Also a bit scary cos i had a cracker of a gallstone attack last night, couldn't even talk, soooo don't want to have to deal with that all alone. Anyway I'm all stocked up now with heavy duty painkillers now so hopefully it won't ever be that bad again. On the pleasant side of things I'm starting on my Chrissy preparation so it's like Dec has come a coupla weeks early at my house. Gotta love that, except there's no champagne this year.
so sorry I have been a very slack baby buddy. I am have been trying to keep up but have had no time to reply. I have had photos everyday this week except today so have been busy busy.
Not much happening here, Logan blows kisses to everyone now and has another molar and one on the way. He also points to his eyes, ears and nose when you ask him where each one is.
I hope everyone is doing well, I will do my best to keep up but am pretty busy leading up to Christmas.
what's this news about a new vaccine?? or am i misreading (very possible..bit of an airhead these days).
just a quickie to the bris and vic girls...hope the storms pass quickly and with no damage! we are starting to get the wind picking up and i have heeded the SES warning and have packed up the outside stuff...boo hoo. a day in the house with miss L on my own...
MD: hugs sista. that pain sounds awful. and i know from my endo stuff that heavy painkillers tend to make us a wee vague...or that could very well just be me! LOL!
Where is DH off to this time?
Arte: here's hoping for a poetic bub! (09-09-09) would be sooo cool! what is the luteal phase exactly?? i have been seeing it on FF but have noooo idea.
Kate: bit jealous at you having your mummy around! i would give my left leg to see mine ATM. but it looks as though there will be no chance, not even over chrissy. oh well, yet another one on our own.
MM and Leanne: hope the toofies come through soon so you gals can rest easy at night and so bubbies can be their happy chappy selves again.
Ange: i was wondering where you had gone! oohh, poor Lu, hope the ABs do the trick. is there a probiotic that bubs can take after a round of ABs? i swear by them for myself...
sherie: may need some advice on how to handle the q's when we go to get L some of her shots (we have a CO letter for the MMR)...
JG: oh man, i hate the wait. we had 2 houses sold from underneath us and it was just awful. it made you realise how powerless you really are as a tenant. i really dislike inspecting houses where i know the people are renting and will have to move out...is there anyway that you guys could move out before bubs is born? so that you can get settled....
AFM: well i have been MIA as feeling rather sensitive ATM. have had a hard time with a guy at work who is in a position of power over me and likes to remind me every chance he can get. yesterday he went too far and will find out next week that i have dropped him from my team...oh happy days. i thought that by leaving the bullying environment in canberra i would be free of these kind of people, oh well...
L is good. she is just gorgeous fun ATM. despite the tanties we are just loving every moment. i love the fact that when we go to pick her up at kindy she comes running towards us. makes me realise that she also loves us...mwahhh.
as for chrissy: well, we will get her a little dolly (she is becoming obsessed). we scored a $2 dolls pram at the local school fete which has been the fav toy for the last week. we are also getting a my wee ride for the bike. and i was thinking of a tricycle. other than that i may just do some things for practical reasons. she needs an upgrade in the wardrobe dept. so may spend most time doing that for the next year...
best be off the animals are at the door wanting in from the storm.
Clare, I haven't had any issues yet, but I got a CO form for all of them. Just tell *them* if they ask that you wanted to wait until she is older because you wanted her to be bigger before she got it - that's my other beef with vaccinations is that they give the SAME dosage to ALL babies/children regardless of their weight/size - so those will smaller bubs are getting the same amount of vaccine as the bigger bubs and people wonder why they are ravaged by fever etc after vaccinations? That's a lot for their tiny bodies to handle. And it's something I never even really thought about till I decided not to continue with vaccinations.
MM, Jenny Macarthy's situation is very different to a lot of others though. Her son has made a miraculous recovery from his autism, but a lot wont. And some children just have autism because that's how they always were kwim?
Kate, *YAY* for Mums! I hope you have a great time with her. I bet she's missed her girls too.
Marydean, how long is he away for this time? I hope you don't have anymore attacks while he's away
Cally, I hope Canberra isn't THAT cold for you. how cute of Katie being able to kiss.
Ozstar, I'm with you on the being busy.
Noni, fingers crossed that Avon does better for you than the catalogues.
Yesterday was just a **** of a day because Alister was just soooo cranky and wanting to tantrum all the time. We were in town nearly all day and normally he is fine, but yesterday he just wasn't going to co-operate at all. Even when we got home he still didn't settle and his bedtime didn't come quick enough last night I tell ya! He is cutting his 12th tooth though, but I don't think that's responsible for yesterday though. The older kids taught him to spin around and it's HILLARIOUS to see him spinning around then falling down all dizzy.
OK Clare, you saaaay that you aren't planning another bundle but then you hang out on FF and the Ob threads??? Should we be awaiting an announcement? Luteal phase it the time between ovulation and AF. It is usually about 12-16 days and needs to be at least 10 days. Mine is currently 5-7 days which doesn't give any potential bubs time to implant. Hope the bully guy leaves you alone.
MD, big bummer that DH is away again! Sorry you had another gall attack (sounds like a netball position lol). Lucky you found out what was causing it, I would be terrified if I had an episode like that without knowing the reason.
Trill, don't ya just love the days when you are looking at the clock wondering if they will go to bed at 4.30pm lol. That is so cute that A is making himself dizzy.
Ozstar, wish I still lived close so I could come and get some photos done. L sounds like a clever little boy.
Cally, glad K was good while you were away. Kisses are adorable. I was looking at your pics on FB, K is one cute kid!
Hayley, are you kidding me? Does you DF really not do any of the day to day care? Does he look after her if you want to do something? You are a far more generous person than me, I would have cracked it a long long time ago if DH didn't pull his weight. I hope he continues to do the little things, it will make a huge difference to their relationship.
