bummer you beat me lol...i saw it this arvo but didn't have time as we were going out for dinner lol...
tan i hope you are ok xxx don't be so hard on yourself and cry if you need it i'm sure it helps!! i wish we all lived closer so we could help you. You do a fantastic job looking after your two little boys. i'm sure they are so proud of their mamma and one day they will be able to tell you that *hugs*. and i'm also sure that wayne is proud of you also and appreciates all you do!
Shona - i find william sleeps better when john puts him to sleep also! it is a conspiracy lol! if only john put him to sleep more often *doh*...we do have feeding to sleep happening again even for day sleeps now which makes my life sooo much easier!!
bella - no ebm for me atm to mix with food...i had borrowed my friends breast pump since william was born and brought a replacement one for her. the one she had had two funnel bits in it, a silicone one and a plastic one. the plastic one fit me better - but then the elbow piece that joins all the bits wasn't making a suction so we had to send away the whole pump and i have the new one to use - but it doesnt have the plastic funnel and the silicone one only pulls nipples! very ouchies and no milk makes mixing solids and ebm a bit hard!
lol at william trying to crawl! he doesn't do it when on the floor but when hes on our bed on his tummy he puts his arms out above his head, faceplants, then lifts his bum in the air and pulls one knee forward at a time. the he looks up at us again. it is sooo funny to watch!
anyway guna go, was guna to work at 8.30 and it's now nearly 9.30 whoopsie!
October - scary huh! Christmas decorations are in the shops eeek!
Thanks Kirsty - I had a doc appt yesterday and I actually cancelled it. I know it is just stress and really didn't want to pay someone to tell me something I already know! Had a big chat with one of my closest friends the other night - sucks because the handful of close close fiends I have geographically aren't close *sigh* and phone calls are hard when you have a manic toddler. She put things into perspective and I am feeling a whole lot better bout myself and the roles I take on - which I am learning is far too many for just lil old me! I have relinquished some control - which is ubEr hard for me to do - and said yes to offers of help REPEAT TO SELF I am not super woman I am not supper woman - I would like to be but I am not super woman. So come Tuesday I have four lovely ladies - childless cause school will be back in and I don't need more litlle ones under foot - coming to lend a hand! Fingers crossed my ocd doesn't get the better of me and I don't lose the plot when they put the 'wrong' things together in boxes. Oh and we have a settlement date finally 25th of this month. Boys are enrolled in Kindergym and swimming lessons and waiting to hear back about what day playgroup is.
*uses best mother voice and shakes pointed finger* you are not leaving him to sleep on the bed and lounge now are you?! Things happen so quickly - not crawling to crawling happens in the blink of an eye - trust me lol Archer is everywhere and into everything!!! Keep up the good work Will!
Elliot still going great guns Shona? A finally did a no.2 so I think that made it 6 days all up and yes solids make nappy changes a whole lot more interesting HAHA I remember with Coop I had a full on panic attack and took him to the ED because I thought he had blood in his stools turned out to be the dragon fruit I had forgotten he had LOL Have you decided on a pump yet?
How is Taz Samara? Sleeps improving yet?
Best be off - planning on hitting the beach this morning the weather is prime! Enjoy your weekend mamas!
