FIRSTLY - YAYAYAAYAYAAYAY for you Kaz! So happy :)
So much to catch up on so i'll do the big slack generic......
Glad everyone's bubs legs are healed, chests aren't infected, no more stripping, keeping snug in their grobags (no I don't use one!) sleeping in their big beds in their own rooms and no longer tugging on the udders!!, and that those that are UTD babies are turned and ready for action :) and growing happily in their mummy's tum's (without GD)! Also glad to hear that there are loads of you out there getting the ME time they deserve! xxx
AFU - Back from Singapore today after a week and a half of setting up, buying furniture, waiting around for dudes to come and fix things and put stuff together.....sweltering in the mugginess! Max is still waking up multiple times in the nite...I still dont know why (he didn't do it in Singa's as much as here...he's already woken up 4 times tonight grrrrr), he's asleep as soon as i put his head back down on the pillow! I hope it's just his teeth! Lucky in Singa's I bought him a new Ikea bed with a trundle so if need be I can sleep on that without getting a bung neck! We have another week and a half here to get rid of the furniture etc from our place and it's been rented too!! I am going to miss Charlie sooooo much....I had a bit of a cry on the couch over there staring at his photos while Max was asleep, and just felt lonely! :( He has done really well at his shows recently! He only has 10 points to go till he titles as a Champion! Woooo!
Well that's it for me for now.....sorry for the slackness! I have some bills and $$ to sort out before I pack it in for the night!

Hi Ladies just a quick Hello I am still not too good but much better than yesterday I ended up in bed all day unable to talk or move as everything hurt.
WOOHOO to tuning babies sticking babies and no GD and ones sleeping in thier beds.
Not good for the ones waking up at night :(
Anyway I must go Kaleb just walked past and I got a lovely smell from him as he did!
-
Morning all!
Paycyn - Sorry you are still really sick :(. Sounds like the flu? I hope you start feeling better really soon.
Julia - Welcome back!! Wow you have been busy! Sounds like you are pretty organised :D. You poor thing having to leave Charlie :hug:, I'm sure your sister will take good care of him though. I hope Max starts sleeping a bit better for you!
Kaz - Love your ticker :). And I hear you on how cold it is atm! I'm sick of getting up and our outside temperature gauge says it's 2 degrees :o. How's the m/s going?
Amber - Have fun at your OB appointment today! I love my midwife appointments, there's nothing like hearing bub's heartbeat :D. I'm so glad your 20 week scan went well! Did you see any hint of the gender?
Willow - I'll say it again, WOOHOO on Boo turning! :confetti: Let's hope that lump of yours disappears now.
Amelia - Woohoo on not having GD! That must be an awesome relief for you :D.
Mo - How are the girls treating you atm?
Saffi - DH coped fine by himself with the boys on the weekend. Luckily they're both pretty easy kids. Yay for your bub being head down already! I have no idea where my little miss is atm.
Hi to anyone I've missed!
Not much going on with us, K has been a bit cranky since getting back from the weekend. I think he needed a couple of days to recover LOL! My unstable pelvis has been pretty bad and I'm struggling to get around a bit, but I'm doing alright. It's just hard lifting K into his car seat and bending over to strap him in. My hormones have been a bit up and down so some days I feel a bit down. Oh the joys of being pregnant!
Hope you all have a great day!
-
Amelia woo hoo on not having GD, that is such great news :)
Willow yay for Boo turning, Hope the AB's clear up the lump. Good to know the Dr's don't think it's anything to worry about.
Trish ouch at the pelvis, hope it doesn't get any worse.
Paycyn hope you feel better soon.
Julia welcome back & hope Max starts sleeping better for you.
Amber gl at the OB today.
AFU
Maddi is still on her self imposed diet but she is now eating Cheesy rice, pasta & ham and cheese sandwiches minus the bread lol.
Kodi is growing up way to quick. She babbles, smiles & laughs now. She's even rolled tummy to back a few times. The other day i caught her watching T.V while she was feeding lol.
Off to get Kodi weighed again today & i'm confident she's gained enough to keep everyone happy.
-
Mo - I cannot believe that Kodi has reached those milestones already. Time does fly doesn't it, it also seems to go so much faster with No 2!
Trish - I am not 2 bad, every now and then feel a little sick and have had a couple of chucks, but so far that is it :crossfingers:. I am mainly having trouble with my knees, as I have arthritis in them and they have played up with both pregnancies but further down the track. Cannot believe how sore they are already, I have decided to go and see an accupuncurist for them. Your pelvis sounds painful, is this something you have had with your other pregnancies?
Julia - Great to see you back, how long a stay is this one? Must be almost time now hey? Thanks also for the congrats, a lovely surprise!
:hello: to everyone I haven't pm'd ... next time!
I booked into Dr Peter Yong for my pregnancy today. I am public patient, but after a not so great experience in the public health system last time we have decided to go private care for the duration of the pregnancy. He said that if I have the baby at the Angliss (Ferntree Gully) he can deliver the baby as well. As he has a list there once a week and because I am having a c section he will get me on that. So I am feeling good about that and have heard some fantastic things about him. I didnt really want to go over to Ferntree Gully, but we had decided on Monash and its probably about the same distance anyway!
-
Kaz are you going to be a private patient in a public hossy?
Which hossy did you have the girls at?
Just got back from our MCHN appt & Kodi is now 5.4kg so she gained 300g in 2wks :)
So i'm a very happy mummy again :)
-
Mo - I am a public patient, but I am going through the private system and we are paying for it out of our own pocket. I will get booked into the Angliss as a public patient, so we wont have to pay for the birth. I had Mia in Mt Gambier and had the same gp the whole way through, until the end when we were referred to an OB with complication (amniotic fluid had leaked out). He admitted, induced and delivered Mia, then we seen him for everything afterwards. Tay was born at Flinders Medical Centre in Adelaide, they have a women's health clinic and a pool of doctors and its pot luck who you see. No urine tests, no weight, anything like that. Hardly any visits, they are so busy that you get the bare minimum. I seen a the surgery people around 20 weeks and they did me pre admission and went through history and all that. I could not tell you who delivered Tay, I met her in the theatre and that was that. Afterwards I got put in a room by myself and rarely seen a nurse and only seen a registrar when I was booking out to give me scripts for me meds. I think a doctor actually did come in the night I had her, but that was it. I had Tay by section on Thursday afternoon and they said I could go home Saturday lunch time! It was so impersonal, and I don't think back and say that was great that is for sure!
Good girl Kodi!

Morning Ladies,
Just a quick question for those of you with 2 or more....what type of booster seat did you buy for you first child when expecting number 2??
Cause Rhys is 15.5kg at the mo he can go into a normal booster with a "h" harness and just put the seat belt through it. Tho I dont think that it is a good idea at the mo cause he has a habit of getting his arms out of the harness in his one now so I was thinking of just getting a convertible on that changes into a booster later on when he starts to behave in the car!! We have looked at the Maxi Rider but also there is a Infa Secure Trek 8 one out on the market that looks abit more snug around the head for when he falls asleep in the car. Oooooooooo so confusing and hard!!
Hope you all have a wonderful day....TGIF!! YAY!! Been a long week for me with appt's and test's! Ahhh...and I am getting a cold and not sure if I should go to the Dr's to get tested for swine!! I think I am just over panicing tho!! Lol.
-
Amelia I am pretty sure there will be anew law that all children up to the age of 8 must be in a 5 point harness?
We got Myles the maxi rider and it takes up to 25 kgs I think? I much prefer a 5 point harness much safer! See how you go! Good luck xxx
Mo Great news abut Madi your doing a great job!
I am off to P!NK tonight woohoooooo! So wont be around much! Soo exciting!
Hi everyone!
Have agreat night! Mwah!
-
Yeah that is what I thought Amber but I asked the ladies in the Pramwarehouse over here at the Hyperdome and they knew nothing about it!! Useless bunch of women!!
Have fun at P!NK!! I am hopeing to get tickets to see her in August!! She just announced she is doing more shows in Brissy.....
-
:rofl: Um maybe it wont be in QLD but I dont see why it wont be a nationwide thing! Isnt kids saftey the most important thing???? Anyway! The maxi rider is great! Myles will be in till he is 10 cause he is so tiny :rofl: x
-
Hi all!
Poor K is either sick or teething, he has been cranky and feels quite warm. I was in Joel's room just before changing his bed sheets and after a while I realised that K was still in the lounge room and was being very quiet. I came out to find him asleep on the couch, awwww...The poor thing, he never does that so he mustn't be feeling too flash. I just put him to bed, hopefully he has a nice big sleep.
All is going OK with me, my pelvis is causing me a fair bit of grief still. I have another chiro appointment next Thursday so hopefully that will give me some relief.
Amber - Have fun at Pink tonight! It will be such an awesome concert :D
Amelia - I have K in a Maxi Rider atm, they are such a great car seat! Joel is in one too and he is 4 1/2, we'll be able to use them until the kids turn 7.
Kaz - Ouch @ the arthritis in your knees :(. I think things like that get worse with each subsequent pregnancy. My pelvis was damaged in a fall I had at work when I was 17 so it has given me trouble for years, but when I'm pregnant it becomes much worse. I had probs with each pregnancy, this time I'm going to a chiro regularly to keep on top of it. I had a month between appointments and it really went backwards in that time.
Mo - Woohoo for Kodi's weight gain! Well done to you both :D
Hi to everyone else!
I'm going to get DH to help me move K's cot into Joel's room over the weekend and set them both up in there. We have to pick up a set of drawers from my mum's house and then we should be set. Then I can finally put the nursery together!
-
We got the maxi rider as well Amelia.
Amber have fun at Pink :)
Kaz Tay's birth sounds terrible, Hope you have a nicer experience this time.
I don't blame you for not wanting to goto Dandy or Casey. At least frentree gully isn't that far now with the new toll way :)
-
Just quickly as I am busy and I will come back later for pm's, but there are new laws in place for carseats and Amber is right, I think its until 7 from November or something that they have to be harnessed. We have a maxirider for Mia and a normal booster in the other car which we now need to get rid of and buy another maxirider as its not surfice. I am not sure what we are going to do once the baby comes, but I am thinking we will just have to start transferring the seats from my car to dh's, otherwise its going to be an expensive excercise! Hopefully we get a back a nice big fat tax return, as I also need to buy Tay a bed and mattress and if we have a boy a whole new wardrobe :lol:!
-
Hey all, found this which details the changes.
Starting 9 November 2009, children under seven years of age must use a child restraint or booster seat when travelling in a car.
The changes will require that:
* Children aged under 6 months must use an approved, properly fastened and adjusted rearward facing restraint
* Children aged between 6 months and under 4 years must use an approved, properly fastened and adjusted rearward facing child restraint OR a forward facing restraint
* Children aged between 4 years and under 7 years must use an approved, properly fastened and adjusted forward facing restraint or a an approved booster seat which is properly positioned and fastened.
There are also new laws for where children can sit in vehicles:
* If a car has two or more rows of seats, than children under 4 years must not travel in the front seat
* If all seats, other than the front seats, are being used by children under 7 years, children aged between four and six years (inclusive) may travel in the front seat, provided they use an approved restraint or booster that is properly fitted.
We are hiring a capsule for bubs for 6 months and then will look at putting bubs in L's car seat (Meridian up to 18kg) and get L a Maxirider (up to 26kg). Hopefully this combo will see them both through to 7 years.
BBL

Amelia - Max has the Maxirider too (appropriate name for him :)) We had two cars so I bought the MR for the 'good' car and had the S&S car seat (from birth to 18kg) in the other. I figured IF I had another baby Max would be OK in something bigger and the other would be fine for #2 for a good while. Max loves it...with the arm-rests and cup holders...and he sleeps well in it too!
I have all these car seats and I'm going somewhere where my kid rides on my lap! Since we've been back home this time he doesn't want to be in the car-seat and cracks it!
Amber - So SO WHAT you are going to P!ink...I'm a loner....I don't neeeedd youuuuuu tonight :) :)
Trish - Wooooo setting up the nursery! I wanna do that! :( Soon maybe!
ANYWAY...I have a weird story. There is a guy over in Perth, who is a natropath and the word is that he kind of has some freaky talent! Anyway, took Max to him today, just out of interest to see if there is a reason for all his wake ups (I went with another friend). I didn't even mention anything to the guy to see if he could 'pick up' his problem. He shone a light into Max's eye....and just came out with "he is having trouble absorbing the minerals etc from his food in his small intestine....does he have trouble sleeping"......UMMMMMMMM YES! ANyway, he gave me some Olive Tree Branch stuff, and some eucanacia (sp) and he says....4 weeks of it, and it will be better!!! WILL SEE!!!!! I was so freaked out!
Well, that's it from me tonight...hope everyone has a fabbo weekend. Benny is home so I'm going for a snuggle!!
-
Evening all
How's everyone doing? Hope you are enjoying your weekend.
Julia - sometimes you just have to have faith in other types of healing. I guess time will tell. Enjoy the time with your DH. Are you all going back to Singapore together? I would be heart broken to leave my two puppies - but I am sure your sister will look after Charlie very well.
Kaz - are you going to find out the sex of this bub?
Trish - hope you mean that DH will be moving the cot into J's room.
Amber - sure you enjoyed the concert. I heard it is pretty amazing. Will you be going to the Britney concert (not sure when it is?)?
Anyway, getting late so I better think about going to bed. Night all.
-
Amelia i sent you a PM. Just take note the site says 18kg for Jasmines seat....but it does to 26kg according to the box and every other site ive looked at.
Hi to everyone else :)
-
Thanks kim!! Most likely will go with the one you have for Chelsea.
Hope everyone is having a good weekend.
-
Heya all, sorry for the late personals, uni work and facebook eat your soul :D
Kaz - BIG congratulations!!! I have fingers and toes crossed for a sticky lil bubalug!
Mo - How is life with two kidlets treating you? How's MAddi going having to share mum?
Willow- omg I can't believe you're near the pop! Time flies, how are you feeling? I dress Ry in tracksuit pants and a jumper because he always kicks the blankets off, he has a heater on low and a humidifier in his room that takes the edge off. He is a terror with zippers he can undo himself and take his nappy off with sleeping bags :). If it fits and stays on go for it!
Paycyn - Hows the snuffles going?
Trish - I don't like you anymore... lol jks jks, glad you got some time to yourself I'm glad you enjoyed it. Did you catch up on some sleep? How's the tummy feeling? :)
Saffi - glad to hear you aren't full blown GD, really hope with a good diet you can avoid it. One of my friends got really bad and needed to needle it (she was really awfully sick not borderline dw) I don't think I could do it. Do you need to have follow up tests? Do you feel ok? How are the snuffles travelling?
Amelia - big congrats on no GD!!! Must be such a relief!!!
Julia- I took Ryan to a naturopath omg my mum would not shut up, they gave me some probiotics, wellness tonic and some garlic oil & castor oil for his ears when he was having chronic infections and within 2 weeks he was all better, and didn't need anymore antibiotics, at the first sign of illness started it again, got antibiotics incase but he didn't end up needing them. Kids respond really well to natural solutions they havent built up an immunity with all the chemicals and processed foods we ingest... well at least all the crap I ingest anyway lol. I'd never replace herbal advise over medical advise but they can compliment each other :). Did he give you any tips for increasing absorption or anything that could be causing it?
Kim- Heya gorgeous how are your beautiful munchkins going? What antics has chelsea got up to today? Hehehe
Hi to anyone I missed. All ok here Ry is well, I have a snuffle refusing to be sick though hehe boss keeps liking to remind me I have no sick leave if I get any sicker... yeah I know! 500 words to go on an assignment till the semester is over and no motivation to do it!! AHHHH!
What does everyone think of all the new harsh speeding laws coming into play? I think it will encourage people to watch their speedo's over watching the road which will cause more accidents than allowing people to watch what they are doing and going 5-10 either side of the speed.. except school zones ;).
Anyways shall leave it here, the wee man is up, finished his drink and wants something more substantial in the belly! Omg I cna't believe how much this monkey eats!
-
Hey all, DS and I are both sick and he is feeling pretty miserable the poor monkey. Have had a restless sleep the last two nights, but nothing a quick cuddle couldn't fix. I've been sick for 4 days now so should be coming good soon, and hopefully DS won't be far behind. I hate it when he's so sick like this :(
Car seats - we have DD in a maxi rider and DS in the SNS reversible (can't remember the exact model, the one most people seem to have). We ended up getting another maxi rider for DS and the baby will have the reversible seat. We figure that should get us through all three without having to buy anything else. We did briefly look at other booster seats for DD (she's 4.5 now) but the lady in the baby shop advised against it because the new laws might make them redundant. I feel better having her in the maxi rider anyway, she's pretty light and small for her age so I just think it's safer.
You know what i do hate though? Having to have two of my babies seats next to the door! I think we'll put the bigger two on the outside and bub in the middle but then people tell me to put bub on the outside because it's easier to get them in and out :dunno: I just hate the thought of a side impact accident....**shudder**...
Trish - Hope K is feeling better. Totally over colds and flus already and we've only just started winter! Last year was a shocker for us so hopefully we won't get sick so often this year! WOOHOOO! on moving the boys and getting started on the nursery! I've had a bit of a wake up call the last week being so sick, realising nothing has been done and hypothetically I could have this baby in 5ish weeks :o
So DH is going down to get our layby out this afternoon and then when I'm feeling better (hopefully tomorrow!) I can get in there and get things organised. I wanna see pics when you're done OK??
CM - I can't believe I'm almost ready to pop either...still feels so surreal! I've been feeling well other than this horrid cold i've got, thanks for asking.
Julia - was watching a travel show and they did a story on singapore - the chick went to this day spa place where they stick their feet in a pool and these little fish eat all the dead skin cells off and give you a little pedi :rofl: You totally have to find it and go!! Here's hoping the naturopath has the answer...some uninterupted sleep would be nice for mummy and maxi!
-
Willow - the same thing occurred to me. When L was in the capsule he was in the middle and his car seat is in the middle too. So either I have to put L by the door or the capsule by the door. I can't see how I can get the capsule over the car seat. I guess it will mean no more on - street parking so the either side is safe for us to get in and out of the car.
Celtic - no follow up tests that I am aware off. I do have a sizing scan on Friday but my OB does that as a regular procedure - not one off for me.
I'm still a little bit congested but otherwise ok. Hope you feel better soon. How many weeks are you now?
Hi to everyone else :hello:
AFU - L's eye thing looks to have returned. Noticed this morning that it looks swollen and red in the same place as last time. The redness does not seem to have spread but I guess we'll see in the morning. I will need to go back to the Dr and get some more ABs.
Did a little more packing today. DH did a heap of work in the garden and his workshop so at least thats under control.
Anyway, ironing to be done, toys to be picked up and sleep to be had.
Have a good week everyone.
-
Saffi - I don't know about finding out the sex, we didn't with Mia and we did with Tay and the surprise is great! But if we are having a boy I would really like to be organised before hand. If we do find out, I will definately share ... :dance:! L's eye sounds sore, poor little might. Hopefully it gets better soon. You sound so busy, when is it time for you to put your feet up and rest hey?
Willow - we have been talking carseats as well, and are going to buy Tay a maxirider and then the baby can have her carseat turned around when it is born. Do you think 2 maxirides and a carseat are going to fit? I am not convinced, my DH said they will but will be squeezy. All I know is Mia is going in the middle, because she will be able to stick the dummy in the babies mouth when it cries and I am driving haha. Also she will be nearly 4 and will be better at climbing out of the car than Tay.
Celtic - Thanks for your congrats, yes definately hope this little cherub decides to stick around. I am really sick this time, vomiting etc and this is all new to me so I am thinking that this is a good sign that the bub is here to stay. Have a dating scan on Saturday and am a little apprehensive but :crossfingers: all is well. As for Ry eating, Tay definately has a good appetite as well. Just wish she passed it on to her big sister, who is more of a grazer!
Julia - will be very interested to hear how Max goes on the mixture's, keep us posted! My friend is in to all this alternative medicine and swears by it!
Trish - As weird as this sounds, how is your pelvis? My knees are heaps better, we got me some panadeine and it is doing wonders. It is safe to take through pregnancy, it has got me through the last two. Definately still trying the accupuncture as well. How is the nursery looking?
:hello: Amelia, Amber, Mo (nearly the birthday girl), Kim and anyone else I have missed!
All ok here, we went to the Carribean Markets today. Our stay was short and sweet as Mia had the shivers and then vomited on the way home. I had a lay down with her and she woke up a lot brighter so not sure what that was about. We are still battling the flu and I had trouble getting out of bed today. I cherish our weekends to do family things, so I have forced myself to go out of the house. Tay was so cute, there was this guy playing guitar and singing and she was bopping along. She is such a groover!
Any tips on getting rid of the nausea??
-
Hi Ladies I am feeling much better today it is more like a mild cold now so I shold feel back to myself in a couple of days. It has been a awful week.
I have Kaleb in the sns converetable at the moment and Ashton who is 4 in July in the maxi rider when we have thenext one I will just get kaleb a maxi rider once the baby needs to move from the capsule. kaleb moved to the carseat last time only because we were in a terrible accident and i had to destroy his capsule (as well as Ashton's maxi rider the baby shop loved me coming into buy a new maxi rider and carseat at the same time) He was about 8 months at the time. kaleb is small and is just coming up to 10kg my 8yo DD is only 22 kg as well. I don't think i will be moving Ashton out of the maxi rider in a hurry as well.
-
Morning!
Well we moved K in with Joel yesterday and it all went well. He had his first nap in there after lunch and slept happily for over 2 hours so I think he liked it! He also went to bed last night without any problems and slept all night. When he woke up this morning I heard him saying "Joel? Joel?", but luckily Joel could sleep through a bomb going off and he stayed asleep. So it seems to be a very easy transition!
Both the nursery and the boy's rooms are a huge mess, we had a very busy day yesterday and only had time to move K's cot into Joel's room as well as rearranging furniture and setting up the baby's cot. DH picked up a set of drawers from my mum late last night so I'll have to try and move it some time today. I feel like we are getting somewhere finally!
Ooh and I went to a baby market yesterday and picked K up a Maxi Rider II for $100! He has one for my car, but I wanted one for DH's car too. I can't believe I found one so cheap and it looks great!
Paycyn - Glad you're starting to feel better :)
Kaz - We went to the Carribean Market a month or so ago, I hadn't been there for years! It's such a great place for kids, the boys went on the little train and patted the farm animals in the little mini farm. Poor Mia, I hope she is better today, and poor you! I'm glad Panadeine is working for you. My pelvis is absolutely terrible atm, I moved my leg in bed two nights ago and it must have put something out and I've been in a lot of pain since. Can't wait to see my chiro on Thursday! Oh, and the nursery is a big mess right now LOL!
Saffi - Bummer about L's eye flaring up again. Will he need AB's again? How long now until you move?
Willow - :hug: You poor things, I hate this cold & flu season! K is much better now, thanks for asking :). Whatever he had passed after his day of a high temp. Dunno if I'll show you photos of the nursery LOL, I don't think it will be that exciting! I'm not very clever with things like that so it will be pretty simple. It's funny how I'm not in a rush to fill it with pink stuff yet, I think I'm in denial or something ha ha! You had better get your nursery set up soon, I can't believe how fast your pregnancy is going :o.
Celtic - LOL, I had a great sleep in last weekend, it was soooo lovely :D. Sorry to hear you aren't feeling too flash atm. That's great that the natural products worked for Ryan!
Julia - Let us know how Max goes with the natural stuff! Hopefully you have found your answer :D
Hi to everyone else! Hope you all have a great day :D
-
Trish where is the animal farm there? I looked and couldn't see it?
-
Kaz - It is near the cafe, kind of between the park and cafe. Maybe it wasn't there yesterday? It's just one of those little farms with baby animals that they bring in and pack up.

Happy Birthday Mo :)
Is there any kids still in cots??
Jasmines big bed is on order so will be here soon...im excited for her. She is getting bunks, but they can be seperated so makes 2 beds.
-
kim Myles is in a big bed and in his own room which is really excitng and sad at the same time! We just got a kids bed from IKEA he loves it!
-
Happy Birthday Mo!
Kim - L is still in his cot and I had planned for him to be in it until bubs is ready to go into it (when she is 4 months??). Got to think about how we transition in from cot to bed and room etc. How are you and your beautiful bubs going?
Amber - I forgot to congratulate you on moving M to a big bed. That and weaning him - you guys certainly have had some big changes.
Trish - sounds like a good transition so far. It think the change was less scary as J was close by and company for him.
You're not moving furniture are you????? With your pelvis/back you shouldn't be doing anything strenuous.
We move in exactly 2 weeks. SOOOOOOOO much still to be done.
Karen - good that you are better now.
Kaz - I figure my rest time will come when the kids are like 18! Considering last time I fell apart and was sick the last few weeks before L arrive I just won't rest LOL.
L's eye seems to have got better overnight. So I'll just keep an eye on it LOL.
-
Maddi is still in her cot, She's comfy in there & i see no reason to move her just yet :)
Thank-you all for the birthday wishes :)
-
OK so there are a few still in cots...Ive just been holding Zachery off in the cradle until Jasmines bed comes....he is 5 months old today and getting a bit on the long side so really needs the cot soon. If not, ill put him in the porta cot in the mean time.
Saffi we are going well.
Jasmine is a miss chatterbox and her nick name is 'clean up crew' as she simply loves her food and always cleans up Chelseas plates as well as her own! ATM when she finishes food or wants attention she yells 'Chamilla' which is her FDC ladies name. Very cute. She has gorgeous curly hair as well.
Chelsea on the other hand, we are havin alot of problems with. She is now in a toddler program trying to manage her behaviour. If she hasnt inproved within 2-3 weeks we are getting booked in for a full developmental ad behavioural assessment.
Zachery is devine. He is sick at the moment though. Nasty cold, his bum is red raw and weeping cos every nappy is a poo and its all mucous and burning his bottom. Everything im trying isnt helping though.

Kim - Tay is still in her cot. We did put her in with Mia for a week or so, just to see if it helped Mia stay in her own bed at night. But no such luck! Then Tay fell off of the bed twice, because she likes to jump on it, so we put her back in the cot. We are thinking about getting her a bed soon, we might even buy bunk beds (the lower height ones) and put the girls in a room together. We are still thinking about it? I don't think that the bedroom is big enough for their beds and tallboys so I don't know what to do. There is another spare room near Mia's so we might just put Tay in there.
I hope everyone is well. I have woken up today feeling crappy. I am over this flu, I think it has been hanging around for about a month now. Blocked nose, dry mouth, no taste ... I hate it. I just want it gone. Sorry to whinge or vent or whatever I am doing. I am just so frustrated with this friggin flu!
