Been sitting here watching the MCG Sound Relief concert since midday! Katie, I too noticed it was quiet in here! hehe. Was tucking Jack back in b4 & thought he looks so long in his size2 full body jumpsuit! Can't believe our bubs are around the 18mth marks!
You ladies intimidate me with all your chatter! I don't feel that I can always keep up...
We have been having a rough one with Sarah and guess what...now me! Sarahs doing better but shes passed onto me V & D. So we've had a shocking few days.
Then, okay a majorly selfish rant here, I told Rory (whos in Emerald working at the moment) that I had a rough nights sleep with sarah and still felt like *****. So he rang his mum and got her to pick sarah up for a few hours to let me have a rest. MIL brought Sarah back after 6 hours and told me that she hadn't had a nap. So of course S had the WORST night sleep ever with like 10 wakeups with more than half of those needing me to resettle. I am so freakin tired today and she made some lame ass excuse when she rang this morning that she couldn't because she didn't have a bed for her. (Like WTF! she has three bedrooms, Sarah doesn't need a cot).
So I am currently sitting here...drinking coke, eating apple danish and praying that sarah has a better nights sleep. Okay rant over for now.
Hi to everyone...I HAVE been thinking of you all and having comments along the read but come time to write them down and ****** gone.
I hope Noni had a wonderful time on Friday and the photos I saw looked fantastic.
Aw Kate, big hugs. Not sure what you mean by V&D but it sounds naaaaasty! Don't ever feel like you have to 'keep up' - just jump in whenever you want to. xxx and and I've got my fingies crossed for a great nights sleep at your house for everyone.
MD, I believe that V + D would be everyones favourite combo of vomiting and diarrhea. I think that it is possible for a pure science nerd to believe in psychic dream phenomena, I have met quite a few religious scientists and it all boils down to a faith in something unprovable
Kate, hope tonight is much better for you. W has only been sleeping through the night for a couple of weeks but I don't think I could manage a 10 wake up night
Ozstar, The Thread Saver lol, did MD send you your spangled undies and cape? What did you decide about your visiting dilema? I didn't offer any advice because it is too hard a call. If you weren't going down in 3 weeks then I would say go for it, but since you will be there again soon I don't know. It is so hard to miss important things.
W's talking is amazing. He copies 2-3 words out of every sentence we say now. Yesterday I asked what he was doing and he replied 'eating sesy (muesli) bar'. He almost never babbles, it is always words or little sentences. I am just blown away at how quickly it all happened. Two months ago he only had a dozen words, now I have absolutely no idea because he can copy almost any word and use it in context later so it isn't just parroting. At a guess it would be in the ballpark of 200-300 words, saying probably 5-10 new words a day. He can also count to 2 - if there is more than that he starts again - one, two, one, two - we are working on 3 lmao
We have been busy this weekend with two kids birthday parties. His social life is better than mine lol. One was in the closest town with shops so I thought I could do some shopping while I was there but sugar-rush William had different ideas so I only got the first couple of things on the list.
lol arte at w's social life - i know what you mean! has he made a lot of 'friends' at the play centre you go to? n also has heaps of words and explodes with new ones every day - no idea how many he has. he counts to 3 and also says 5 if there are HEAPS - like is a car park - 'ooooh five dars' it is gorgeous. we had such a nice weekend this weekend, he has been in the best mood today - think his canines have been hurting of late but he got some respite today so was in a great mood.
Noni - i hope fri was AMAZING - where can i see pics?
kate - grrrrrrrrrrr at the mill - that is CRAZY. mine are the same, hence why when we are in melb i give my mum babysitting duties. i know it p's off the ils but even dh prefers her to look after him so not much can be done lol!
well we have decided to get mr n a bed... i guess the sooner we do this the better for the baby to use his cot - and also he sleeps so well in our bed i think it will be good. we got a king single - easy for one of us to lie down with him and setle him. now, what bedding do i use? a doona? i need to get it this week... it could be a disaster but hey it has to happen some time i guess.
I wonder how Rainy is?
hi to everyone else - sorry not many personals will try to be on tomorrow. xxx
Arte, get used to W having a better social life than you do! (the lot of the modern mother LOL). All that talking is amazing. Do you talk a lot too LMAO??!
PP - good to hear from you hun. Let us know how the bedding goes, personally we will probably do a tuckable sheet and blanket before getting into the doonas, just to keep Missy E better secured in place under the bedding, kwim? But if N doesn't move around a lot in his sleep a doona could work well too. Missy E's a long way off moving into a bed - it'll probably be closer to or after her birthday before we take the side off the cot.
Kate - oooh V&D! Oh I hope you're feeling better soon. xxx
Katie - only you can decide what you feel comfortable with hun. The time you spend with your sister will be special, no matter when you go...in fact it might be better in a couple of weeks because she won't be so overwhelmed by ppl wanting to spend time with her by them, kwim?
Andi - I listened to bits on the radio, man the crowd was totally going off!!
MD, I don't talk that much (unless you ask DH or my mum lol)
PAP, isn't it great when you get your nice bubba back after a grizzle patch! With the bed we got a light duvet (= aussie doona) but he kicks off blankets so it is probably pointless
