Babies born September 2007 #52

md- all that INTG stuff sounds absolutely fantastic!
are the adults going to be drinking pinky ponk juice? ;)

LOL MD, there is definitely only one in there. That didn't look quite right when I was typing it. Be prepared for a heap of spelling mistakes and general mind fuzz: newborn madness + toddler that wakes twice each night = brain numb mummy

Does my memory serve me correctly that this time last year your DH was away on the overseas posting?

Yep Arte and the year before that he'd only been home a few weeks too. Whew kinda relieved about your singleton situation now :).

Ginger - yeah bring on the pinky ponk juice! LOL

Happy Birthday Logan!

(sorry I missed it yesterday)

Happy Birthday Logan! I hope you had a great day yesterday.

Arte, thanks for the measurement - it would be just the right size for the girls so it might have to be a school holidays project me thinks.

MD yes you are the only one going OTT with the party :lol: but you totally deserve to have a big, fun family thing for her this year. Great thinking 99 about getting old promo posters - I hope he's in a better mood when you go back LOL. We did the show on Wednesday and then there's another one near us on the 19th that we will go to. So expensive these days though isn't it?

Clare, I hope it's not going to be an annual thing then! Do you watch good news week at all? A few weeks back Shaun did a thing on GNW and Josh was on and he said it was like having his father crash a party ROFL the video of it's here TEN Video Player: Watch Full Episodes and Exclusive Video Interviews it's hilarious.

G sounds like you've got the party all sorted. Definitely keep working on him about the pony - our friends are polar opposites - she loves horses and he love horsepower so she got her DD a horse for pony club because he wanted a new road bike LOL.

PP, I have booked a motel at Kingston, so let me know which cafe you want to meet at and we'll go from there. I can't belive its only a week away now!

I feel like I'm never home ATM - I have been out everyday bar monday this week and have little A's on today, then back to town to pick LIndsay up from the sleepover he's having tonight. So busy! Then I have sunday and monday at home before Alisters paed appt on tuesday.

Happy Birthday to Logan for Yesterday and hope he had a awesome day

hey everyone,
been a busy house here.. we thought dd and i had food poisoning but now my friends little boy whos staying here has started vomiting too n even tho he ate from the same place its not likely it wld take a few days like that so prob a tummy bug.. gosh im freaking out Billy will catch it :( on the up side ashas slowly getting better which is a relief coz really im still adjusting to looking after the 2 of them!!
Williams doing well.. hes finally growing into his 0000 clothes lol tiny little thing he is.. i mean hes out of the 0000 wondersuits but everything else hes just starting to fill 0000 lol he was 3.7kg last time he was weighed n im pretty sure hes over 4 now.. sooo happy hes finally growing!! hes still quite clingy but hes getting alot better with that too and i must admit now that things are settling im enjoying the cuddles lol.. i find im a bit more protective of him tho.. maybe coz of the rougher start he had compared to mashie?? i dont let other people do asd much with him as i did with asha.. could be that im quite aware hes probably my last baby too so im clinging on to him lol.. even dh tho i find myself saying no no ill do it even when hes said he wants to im trying to work on it.. i mean i think its partly a good thing ive bonded well with him now when it was looking dodgy for a while there but still i dnt wanna shut dh out...
fathers day - dh is getting a tattoo of williams nameas thats what he really wants.. we got him a card too and depending how my day goes today i might get the kids to do a painting.. well asha lol n maybe put williams hands or feet on it lol... for my dad i just got some prints of some pics of the kids together..
arte - thats so clever W picking a gift thats relevent dont think ash is quite up to that yet...
birthdays - wow some of u are so organised lol i havnt even looked for a present yet.. we have some rough ideas in mind tho.. lucky for me Ash is at the end of the month!!
we're big your gen fans round here too.. bit sad i thought he was edward scissor hands at first too :redface: lmao!!!
anyways best be off hope to catch up a bit more soon!!

Noni that's great he's doing so well now hun.

I forgot fathers day - we aren't doing anything as the weekend was up in the air a bit as DH had a fire brigade driving course on for the whole weekend and he was going to have to camp out, so we didn't have anything planned for Sunday, but we might do something now as the course was cancelled.

hi girls!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LOGAN!
hope you had a gorgeous day and got to open loads of fun pressies...nothing like the sweet tune of paper ripping!

PP: not sure that we will have squidloads of time to meet up...DH has decided that he needs to be at work on tuesday...ppppfffft. but ANYWAY, we are planning on getting to canberra in the pm of Sunday, having brekkie with the BB girls...hint hint ;) on the monday at rydges...and then head off to the rally at 11.30....it all finishes up around 2.30pm and THEN DH decided that we will be chipper enough to jump in the car and drive all the way back to melbourne. i have guaged the travel time with pitstops to show that we will get home close to MIDNIGHT :o
not happy jan.

Arte: ha ha ha ha! i only just made the connection that you are having another sept bub! deerrrrr i am sooo slow LOL!

i wonder if JordieC has had her bub yet?

MD: oh geez, yeah, one year ago and your DH was so far away! it seems so long ago...

Sherie: yeah Fathers day here is not so well planned. i am *hoping* to do the city slicker childrens farm or something...get some much needed vit D if the weather permits. otherwise we will just do a big cook up brekkie and the pressie...DH wants an apron...yep, an APRON. how frikkin boring is that LOL?!!

so going to check out the video...have to do it at home as i am sure that my office mate will not find it humorous. egad.

Noni: oooh so jealous of your newborn cuddles! and woot woo on the weight gains. little beauty! how is Asha adjusting to Ws continued presence?

ok, so i MISSED the last part of TAYG...if he wasnt edward scissorhands who was he? i couldnt pick it! i just went with Josh, because, well it's Josh.

AFM: okish here. have had a niggling headcold for 2 weeks now and am officially tired of it. i think it is the kindy lurgy so no doubt will just fester for years LOL!
we are very close to buying the tix to italy! almost convinced DH of the importance of timing. but alas, like most italians time is subjective. he wants to leave in 15 days time...argghhhh he is going to send me crazy!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RENEE hope you have a great day

Anyone have any advice on looking after a sick 1mth old?? Now he's vomiting too and its the whole feed.. He's not a vomity baby at all usually im really worried coz both the kids here have been vomiting a lot and now he is.. Do I keep feeding him even tho he vomits it just like u do with reflux? Should I give him water? God im hopeless!!

Noni- I would probally keep feeding him as normal but def go to the dr

hi everyone

i've tried to catch up on the last couple of pages.
md - sounds like you're having a great time organising Miss E's celebration - sounds fantastic. Did you find some blue lollies for the cake? Make sure you post some pics of your creations.

clare - going to Italy sounds fabulous - seems you wont' have to wait long to go though!

noni - hope W gets better soon - it's not nice when the poor little things are sick.

pap - you just reminded me that i bought a similar book for Father's Day - i'd better put it with the other presents.

Ginger - your party sounds pretty spectacular as well. Make sure you take plenty of pics.

arte - i get excited every time i read your countdown on Fb. Are you a little nervous or just incredibly excited?? Have to say that I really enjoy reading about all the funny things W says and does. He must keep you laughing all day.

I'm having a cranky week - way too many colours and preservatives in the party food we consumed over the weekend and the beginning of this week. I'm thinking of trying the Failsafe diet. I complain about the effect additves etc has on the girls, but it makes me go a little crazy too.

hello to all you other lovely yummy mummies as well. :)

Happy Birthday Logan (for yesterday)!!! Have been reading back thru last year's September thread and cracked myself when we got to the bit where someone (not mentioning any names :rolleyes:) started a premature happy-birthday-Logan-wishing-spree PMSL!! Anyway hope you had a lovely day, gorgeous little man!

Also happy birthday to Renee, if she's out and about!!

Noni, I would err on the side of caution and take him to the GP to check. Just cos he's still so little. :hug: and i hope everyone's feeling better soon.

***NEWSFLASH*** DD1 and I made an unscheduled stop for Ikea meatballs today :) and of course the 2010 catalogue is out. They ran out of little saucepan sets (what we went for) but while I was there I discovered they have these very cute & compact little kitchens for $199...sturdy & inoffensive. So you might want to check them out Pregpan!

BTW I suggest Clare you push your trip forward by a day and gatecrash Pregpan's Bill-Grainger brunch. YUM I want to be a dad LOL.

While I was there we picked up some flower & heart icecube trays - especially for the pinky ponk juice Ginger LOL.

Sorry I must be so much older than you young chickadees :p. It was Robert Smith from The Cure (not Ed Scissy) and they had The Cure music playing as he came out onto the stage!

Well DD1 had a student-free day today and we made use of our free movie tickets to see Coraline in 3D! Awesome movie - bit scary for the younger players - but so clever and pretty wild in 3D (have never seen a 3D movie before)! Also we took the opportunity to browse thru the little-girl frocks at Myer - there are some gorgeous little numbers in there - bit too summery for the weather just yet which is a pity cos Missy E is in desperate need of a new party frock. Hmmm might need to get clever with a tshirt and tights and a pretty little cardy instead...BTW I was devasted when I noticed that Sprout finishes at size 2 :( but then I realised how much bigger and more fantabulous the size 3-8 section is and I was happy again :).

ikea meatballs - yummo!!!!
the Milkshake brand at Myer has some lovely clothes - and not too pricey either.

i LOOOOvve the 3-8 section in Myer- that's where we spend all our time nowadays.....unless i sneak something in there for j ;)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GORGEOUS LOGAN!!!!!!

have a great day everyone!

ps....shophouse have new spring oobi range online ;)
