Hey Ladies
You guys talk too much and I am so behind.
Just wanted to say hugs to everyone and I'm thinking of you all.
Sarah is still not well. Shes got a throat and ear infection still as well as a wicked cough at the moment. So no sleep and very whingy and clingy. Poor monkey.
Congrats again to Rainy
Good luck to Ange
Woohoo to MD
and again hugs to everyone else. Will try to be a better BBer soon

MD:
gr8 news hun!
Jack is heading to size 2's!. Jumpsuits & bodysuits have been 2's for some time now. I think I got away with ones cos it was summer & it was shorts but when you put pants on him, 1's don't cut it, same as long sleeve T's.
How does Miss E go at kindergym? I have been thinking about it for the boys.
Good luck with your FDC hun.
Trill:
Alex has the same reaction to too many grapes & I think mandarins. Have you tried to change his fruit? Alex loves banana's, tomato's, grapes, mandarins & pears. Trying to get him to eat something else, good luck!
Go girl! Good luck with getting the new lappie!!
Leanne:
J is like Livi. I've put his booster seat & harness on layby already as his head is almost to the top of his carseat.
Fal:
You are very strong willed not to say anything to that lady in Myers.
Rainy:
how you feeling hunny?? thinking of you today & hoping that all goes well with the IL's.
clare: hope you start to feel better soon hunny.
OMG on L's destruction! I took the drop side of Jacks cot, got one of those anti roll out bumper things & have a new toddler bed. Tho he's been sleepin in the porta cot!
AFU:
J had a horrid nite last nite, he was screaming in his sleep so i got him out & nursed him then put him on the sofa lounge that is in the blow up racing car ball pit but was very still restless. He was awake by the time I was ready to go to bed at 10.30. he was laying in my bed & then he started throwing up. After he did that a few times i put him in his cot & he drifted off to sleep.
The nite b4, wasn't as horrid but still bad, nite b4 was good but the nite b4 that was another bad nite. o but yst & the day b4 A was up at 5 !
& its overcast today with rain predictions for the weeks ahead with more flood predictions! so glad we got a beach day in yst!!!!!
i've even been thinking of moving out to the coast cause i love taking the boys so much! & it has a public pool too so that wld covered!
Oh Noni!!!! Congrats on your little BLUE bundle!!!!!!!!! Great to hear that the scan went well and everything is where it should be. Have you brought any blue things yet?
G, definately take the high road with her, but if she does start making nasty comments, I would politely ask her if she thinks it is appropriate to be a guest in someone elses house and then do nothing but insult them. Soon you will have the hang of BF Jimmy, he will get bigger and more efficient with what he's going and it will pass.
Andie, I hope he's not coming down with anything.
Kate, oh no at Sarah still not being well. It must be really taking it out of all of you
Arte, LOL at you not telling them. They are probably going to take a while longer yet even if they have twigged because they won't be game to say anything JIC you're not ROFL! I didn't tell my Dad till I was well past that stage either. Just wasn't high on my to-do list.
OUCH Ozstar at the UTI! Glad you got that sorted and you're feeling better.
Clare, ikwym about the cot. The one we have always used is an old Steelcraft one that is all metal framing and the panels at each end and it was MIL's that she used for all her kids. But I can't see it wearing out anytime soon though. As a joke we offered it to DH's brother and his wife to use with their first baby, cause Paige was nearly out of it by then and you'd think we'd asked her to cut off her arm, she just looked horrified at the thought of using something so old, but she's a bit precious about that sort of thing
Not much going on here today. Have baked a date cake which smells divine and I have a heap of washing to fold and iron later too.
Have had a very busy couple of weeks and once I've had just a couple of days away from BB, the posts just seem too mountainous to attempt (you're all so chatty) so I've had a good sit down yesterday and today and think I am up to date!!
So much has happened:
Rainy - many congratulations on little Jimmy, are there going to be any photos up soon? Thinking of you today with MIL visiting, hope it's going OK.
MD - big hugs to you, glad that the scan went well. Fingers crossed the FDC hunt ends soon and you can get a bit more MD time.
Clare - glad it isn't a clot, hope all those tablets get your iron levels up soon, your leg gets better and someone (even if it is just MD and Arte!) takes those pesky tonsils out!!
Ange - glad you've moved into your new place and that you had so many friends to help out. Hope L has settled in there well and it is all ready for your new little bundle whenever it decides to arrive!!
MM - hope you had a wonderful day yesterday and a lovely honeymoom. I'm sure M will have a ball with the IL's, try not to worry about her too much!
Andie - Happy Birthday for yesterday!!
Noni - congratulations on your little blue bubble! You and DH must be thrilled. Hope the planning goes well this week and have fun with your bestie in town.
Kate - hope Sarah gets better soon.
SupaB - I am also very impressed with your super texting ability!! Must be nice being in your last TAFE semester.
Trill - will have to go on a search for the yogurt tubes. DH is doing all the shopping lately but I'm not sure I can leave it up to him!
Hello to anyone else out there!
AFU: K is alternating between absolutely gorgeous and a little terror! She closed herself inside yesterday while I was hanging out the washing and decided to crayon the walls - when she heard me open the door she giggled and drew faster!! Still no words, but getting even better at communicating. Obsessed with taking our shoes off when we get inside after being out, also wants to take the rest of our clothes off too! The last week she has had a few unsettled nights, nothing bad, just makes those noises that wake us up and just a quick resettle, not sure what it could be, all the molars are through, can't see any sign of eyeteeth. She is onto one day sleep, but could still do with more sleep, only tends to sleep for 1.5 hours and we do tend to have a lot of whinging which is very grating. She isn't happy when she doesn't get her own way.
Clare - I am glad L only has size 4 feet. That is the same as K, hers looks so small compared to other kids her age. No idea what weight she is, a bit under 11kg maybe? I bought her some Cotton On kids pjs (size 1-2) and the pants only just reach her ankles. Not impressed, she's pretty average size, I really didn't think she needed size 3!
Anyone else still bfeeding? We can go days without it, I don't mind it, except in the mornings she is very grumpy if I get her up and she doesn't get it straight away. If DH gets her up she isn't interested and is much happier. Not sure what to do about it.
Might be early lunch today and early naps, she is yawning away while DH is reading to her. He's ready for a nap too, so I might get some quiet TV time!!
Oh, almost forgot - Clare and Arte, I went out and bought the first Twilight book yesterday after all your comments about it! Haven't started it yet, almost not brave to until I have the whole series and can just move straight on to the next one!!
Noni - Woohoo for BLUE!!! That's pretty exciting hun! Wow you are going to be on a high all week now until Friday!! I will be thinking of you all week !
Andi hun I don't know how you do it - I think you are an amazing woman bringing up your 2 boys with so much love and attention all by yourself!! I hope the sleep improves, i know how crazy making it can be when you're up and down like a yoyo all night - with no backup person.
Kindergym has been fantastic - it hasn't changed one bit since I was taking DD1 10 years ago LOL. E is still too young to join in with the group activity (runs around a lot with me chasing her instead LOL) but she will get it in a few months I think.
G2G - my sunday brunch is ready - mmmmmyum!
ETA - OMG Didn't realise it was Andie's birthday - happy happy day for you hun, I hope this year brings lots of happy surprises for you (and maybe a move if that's what you want )!
Cally good to hear from you hun. You've obviously been very busy! LOL at K just drawing faster - E gets that look in her eyes sometimes too now (usually followed by some ear-bleedingly loud squealing LOL).
BTW I'm confused - I thought "take the high road" means that you leave. I thought the correct saying was "take the middle path" meaning the place of balance in the middle...? So yeah. ??
well i think i took the high road, or the middle road...or whatever road! lol
anyway...it was all ok. she was on her best behaviour, i think a few people must've worded her up iykwim???
noni- congrats on your boy! you must be stoked
andie-happy birthday honey
katie-what size were your pjs? were they too big or too small? mine haven't come yet. i wish i knew you had a hammock and it was no good, i had no idea. what a waste of money.
jimmy has been sleeping semi-reclined in lewis' armcchair all day. he hates sleeping flat on his back in the bassinette. do you think i could put him in the armchair at night or is it bad for sids etc.? he just seems so much happier in it.
I would leave him in it G. I would often leave the kids to sleep in their rocker if they looked like they were in a deep sleep. So long as he can't fall out there would be no harm. I would always have a rolled up cloth nappy under the head of the matress in the bassinette and that worked well for us.
Morning all. Logan has his needle today, hopefully its nice and quick without to much fuss. I am so happy its raining this morning, feels like we havent had rain in ages. We are going to make play dough and do some crafts today.
L has worked out how to climb up on the computer chairs, it is scaring the life out of me finding him standing on them bashing the keyboard. He also discovered the eggs in the fridge, thankfully no breakages just yet *touch wood*
Andie enjoy your trip hun.
Clare sounds like your little L is going to cost daddy a fortune in shoes as she gets older.
Cally I hope your back is ok, nothing worse then a sore back.
Kate how are you healing up? Your fall sounds very nasty. How is S doing?
Rainy glad things were better with MIL. Had a good giggle at your comment on FB re the farting. Your going to be living in a very smelly house thats for sure.
I love that in the night garden is back on, I get my half hour in the mornings back.
Katie - back is feeling a lot better today, thanks
Andie - lucky you and a little holiday! I'm sure the boys will have a ball.
Clare - woohoo for posting from the lounge room!! That would be handy, I'm not sure DH is ready to give up the desktop computer though.
Well I am trying to eat a bit more healthily at the moment. A nice fresh ham salad roll for lunch each day and just reduce the volume I have been eating too as it was getting excessive. DH bought bullets yesterday and I had 5. Yes, just 5!! So proud of myself.
