Sacha, that is awesome! Congrats it sounds like everything is coming together for you!
We had a great christmas here! The boys got spoilt rotten Spence is going really well he has 8 teeth now!! he has been crawling and pulling up on things for about 6weeks now, he is still bf, I got af for the 1st time since he was born on the 23rd the break was lovely though!
Congrats on getting the job Sacha. Sounds like you have a very busy time ahead of you and exciting also.
Jas - 8 teeth!! wow. And crawling too. That's fabulous. Mmmmm, my af arrived on the 23rd also. Made me feel like Budda wasn't little anymore.
All well here, just busy. Got a transfer with work which I wasn't expecting for another 5 years and stoked with the new position. Starting back 2 days a weeks next year which will help with the family finances and assist my brain back into 'normal mode' again (well hopefully)
Budda doing well. FINALLY started rolling a couple of weeks ago and this week has started moving backwards and pushing himself onto his knees. I'm not in a rush to see him move yet, but don't think it will be too much longer. So funny though as Beauty was only 3 weeks away from walking at this stage. No teeth though. I do LOVE gummy smiles.
Beauty and I are doing well now and I have been enjoying her company (and relaxing a whole lot more) over the past month. I found myself constantly picking negatives out and pulling her up about everything. I've come to realise that the poor little mite is just a little tot still, and it's not her fault that her mummy and daddy had a bub when she was so small. We are having a great time now, in and out of the home and I'm finding that she is so much more helpful, and often does things without being asked anymore.
TT is going ab fab. She takes herself to the toilet during the day and needs minimal help now. So wonderful to only have one in nappies.
Apart from that, it's the holiday season, and Xmas and new years and I always love this time of year. Wishing everyone a wonderful new year and hope you had a great christmas.
Nellnell - TEEHEE to AF! might have to call it that from now on.
Jas - WOAH! 8 teeth and crawling. It amazes me how babies progress into things at different stages. you'd have your hands full chasing him around. Lach is rolling everywhere and sometimes i have that 'omg where is he' moment and find him under the little table or behind a chair. eeek! to crawling/ walking. put him in his walker the other day and he followed me to kitchen, pulled magnets off fridge, pulled open drawers/ cupboards, played with dirty teatowel. *sigh* it really makes me think about more 'simple' things. what's normal for us is WOW to them.
Nell - great on your job and going back PT. I know what you mean bout getting your brain back. I really struggled in the interview for new job .... and i told them so. Thank god they're all mothers who understand. they apparently have a pregnancy chair there, which i'm going to find and get rid of once i get there! *stay away from me preggo chair*
Fanastic also that you're getting along better with Beauty and that TT is going great. i've found even our niece whos 5 is struggling not being the baby anymore. caught her take all lach's toys the other day and he cried cos he didn't have any to play with. should have seen her face when I told her to give him some back and that 'he's a nice baby who'd share'. LOL
how is everyones baby sleeping during day - lach wouldn't sleep til 12pm today (for 2.5hours) and is so full of beans i think he's dropping to 1 sleep a day. is that right?? at his age?? I think i might just let him cos he's happy up and adventuring.... and i'm going around the twist trying to enforce 4 hours of sleeps during the day that the CYH said he needs!
Sacha - OMG, dont talk about day sleeps! just kidding, but man, Budda is doing my head in. The last 3 weeks he only sleeps for max 30mins in his cot, but of course will sleep up to two hours in the car or the pram. I think they are all different in terms of how much sleep they have, but 1 good sleep per day is better than my 3 shocking sleeps. All the mums in our mothers group have their bubs sleeping 2 sleeps per day. Beauty didnt drop to one sleep until she was 16 months though......so who knows. If Lachlan is happy, it doesn't really matter. Pffft to the CYN and what they 'need', you know better than anyone what he needs.
