heaven - wow on the sleep.
Holly - I'm glad the other girls were able to help with your request. the wording was confusing.
Nai - hope ur feeling better soon. Glad you were able to extend your mat leave. I was talking to a GF from Bulgaria who said they get three years mat leave - first is full pay, then 1/2 pay then wihtout pay but heck, much better than here.
Shell - hope snot city clears up soon for you
Shoot, forgot what everyone has written.. I'm ancient and my memory is going.. I keep saying to DH that it's really hard to be 21 (and of course he gives me that look of yeah right 21+18) but hey a girl's gotta try!
Went for a drive to "the gong" today, seven hours in the car, we are trying Alex for a roadtrip back to adelaide and that will be 15hrs - he did pretty well, I ended up in the back seat with him and he had a romp in the back of the falcon wagon, and played wiht the cargo barrier, while covering everything in watermelon, cheese and rice crackers.
ali that sleep is amazing! sorry yuou missed out on movie tickets
holly id just keep meal time very relaxed the more anxious you are the more anxious he will be. if he eats he eats if he doesnt he doesnt, he know how hungry he is, i know its hard as you dont want him going hungry but i assume he isnt. make it fun, maybe make a big deal when he does eat. does he eat with you??
sorry about the mat leave too
shell soooo what shopping you off to do today??
nai hows the tummy today? how did J go last night with sleep, did sshe go down ok in the end??
malyna ohhh i love the gong, been a few years since i was there last, do you have a dvd player for the car? id get one!!
heaven did G have one sleep again?? 8 hours straight is great!! pity you wouldnt have gottne 8 hours tis alwys the way!
AFU M only had one sleep yesterday too as it was from 10.30-12 and she refused the arvo one, ive gone back to feeding during the night, last night it was at 10pm and 3am, so better than the nigth before of 3 times. our one tooth is about 3mm through the gum and man its sharpe, leaves a dent in my areola. she loves to click her tongue to us, and hand us stuff, i think she can say ta too!! loves to squeal i dont like it.
Olive - Yep we are oging to get a DVD player for the car... Any recommendations? love the tongue clicking
Alex loves to blow raspberries - he usually does it with a mouthful of yoghurt, so whoever is feeding gets covered. I know i should not laugh but its so funny.
I should be at swimming classes but I'm over driving the 70km return trip there (I have to cross the territory)... I'll try locally next term (term 2) but I'm just over things at the moment.. I'm sure I'll get back into the swing of things soon.
Malyna - That's a long way to go for swimming lessons. I'm also travelling about 70km each way for ours but my mum's group all go at the same time so there is social incentive there. Hope you pick up soon. Yay for A doing so well in the car. We're going away in a couple of weeks and I've been wondering how DS will go. He's still riding backwards too!
Olive - squealing is no fun. DS has been doing it for months, mainly when he's tired! He also likes to play the giving game and says ta or ta-ta-ta. Too cute!
Ali - bummer about the movies being sold out. That would drive me nuts. Did you do something else nice instead?
Shell - meant to reply to you earlier that the meet up was good. It was daunting walking in but was nice to meet so many BBers and put faces to names. The time flew by and I didn't even get to talk to everyone! Social things are so different with kids and I only have the one to watch and he doesn't even move yet and I still struggle LOL!
Kailani - that sucks about your leave, I agree with Malyna - the wording was confusing. RE: the food, DS has been doing this the past couple of weeks. He never ate heaps and now he seems to eat even less. I have varied his food a little bit. He will always eat cheese and yoghurt. We're in the process of changing his dinner (and possibly breakfast) routines so that he is eating with us cause he seems to eat more when we are too.
Who else was there?? Can't remember. Sorry Hi to everyone though!
AFU - Better sleep last night finally! He went down at 8:30pm, fed at 1am and again at 5:30am and got up at 8am. I feel so much better for having had a 4 hour block in there. DS had a massive morning sleep of over 2 hours too today and I think he's gone down again now. About his eye colour - I think he's got dark blue eyes (or grey-blue), DP doesn't think they're blue but more of a dark hazel. My mum agrees with him. My eyes are hazel (more green than brown, some people would say they are green iykwim) and DPs are blue but do sometimes change to have brown in them. Anyone confused yet? LOL!
Holly - my manager is fairly flexible - he has 4 daughters but he realised they would have to pay me for my first day and I wouldn't be there as it would be a public holiday so that swayed him.
DP and I had a date day today with the girls in childcare which was lovely - we went to the movies and then out to lunch and drank too much. We cycled there and back - it was a perfect day. I think the last time we did that was almost 5 years ago.
Miss J has been screaming during the night for a few hours on end which has been tiring although last night was slightly better - thankfully! Her latest tricks are that she can now say "Hi" when she sees you - it's sooo cute. And her favourite toy is now a baby doll that she calls "Beybee" in a slightly french accent She will crawl around and look for it when I ask where "Beybee" is.
Kaz - I know I'm being lazy re the distance, but I'm just exhausted with everything at the moment, so I'm just letting the things that bug me go and things will change, I'm sure.
Nai - your date day sounded fun.
AFM - keep your fingers xed for me, I've started to put out query letters to agents.
tis alwys the way!
