Wow its been ages since i posted in here!! I hope everyone is going great! Happy Birthday to all our not so little bubbas!
Welcome Rainbowbrite and im gonna say it aswell....wow 7!!!!
Freya is great, she never stops!! apart from half an hour when Toybox is on but then shes still dancing around! She started walking on Christmas Day, and now shes running, climbing, and unfortunatly diving...into the floor.... She tries to go faster then she can, resulting in some not very nice stacks last week she had a black eye! it looked terrible!! Shes not saying any clear words yet, but has her own works for things. She is however very good at following directions, and know what alot of things are.
Shes very good at eating, shes a little foodie she has a small sippy cup of milk with brekky and then another a night before bed. She very determined to feed herself! shes not very good at it yet tho lol, but she tries really hard! shes got the action of the spoon right, but just hasnt masterd getting the food onto the spoon.
We had a CHN appt last monday and she weighed 10.5kg and was 77cm so is in between the 75th + 90th percentile.
Cant really think of much else sometimes I have a bit of a hard time with her, shes so independent. Tanty's are a big part of the day and it seems we cant do anything without one! whether its a nappy change or strapping her into the high chair, she protest. She isnt the slightest bit clingy which gets me a bit sad sometimes, she couldnt care less whether she can see me or not, shes off doing her own thing. But I guess its just her personality and every bub is different! She isnt really into bubs her own age, and can be a little rough, shes must more interested in the bigger kids.
Hows all the other bubs? How are you mummys coping with stacks and tumbles? or it is just mine who is trying to give herself a concusion?! XD
everyone, it's been a while.
How are we all, whats news with all the Lil (or not so little) ones?
Were good here, Zara is walking and running everywhere, talking LOTS and generally just trying to keep up with her big sister, she amazes me every day.
Will fill in more, about to head to bed... just thought of everyone and wondered whats news?
We are all going well here, im back to studying and part time work on top of that keeps me busy Enjoying the adult conversation though. DS is walking and running around as well, not to many words but hes getting there. Loves playing peak a boo and can chuck a tantrum like no other
Milly is crawling but not walking yet she doesn't say much but I just think she is a late bloomer she still wakes 2-3 times a night so I feel like I've been tired for the last 14 months
Going well here too. Amelia is walking and talking. She says mum, dad, cat, more, uh-oh, no and doo-dor (her word for booby )
She puts on a shy face for strangers and is such a mummy's girl but when Daddy's home she's all his. She races to the front door when he gets home from work. So cute. She's still a booby girl, having about 4 feeds during the day and a couple overnight. Gets tiring at times, but it's all good, co-sleeping helps. I still haven't got AF back yet I've been feeling like she's coming back for the last month or so but nothing yet, figure Amelia will have to night wean first.
So glad to hear all the LO's are well, i can't believe how quickly they are growing up.
Z has 2-4 feeds a day, basically when she wakes, before bed and then randomly through the day if she wants/needs.. it's pretty funny now as she actually asks "BOOBIEs, BOOBIES, BOOBIES... PEASE"
We have a little chatter box on our hands here, but she has to be to keep up with DD1 & I, at the moment we have a list of over 30 words that she has said regularly and are basically understandable... she's going great guns with the speech
She counted to 3 the other day with MIL and then did it on her own.
I honestly don't think DD1 was anywhere near this quick at the same age but i might be wrong.
kids having a hissy... bbl
Wow ZF, Z sure is talking a lot!! DS doesn't really say any words yet, but he babbles a lot. He runs everywhere and totally cracks me up - he is a real livewire! I am loving this age - he is so cute and a very happy little boy. DD was (and still is!) a handful so I am really enjoying having an easier bub. He mostly sleeps through the night, waking at around 5am for a feed and then will usually go back to sleep for another couple of hours. He still feeds about three times a day, sometimes two which I am happy with.
Laranna - whereabouts in Perth do you live? We have recently moved back to Perth from Victoria and are living in Attadale at the moment.
18months - eek. Time flies. A is still a very senstive soul and loves a good cry. He was hit badly with a cold (but no ear infection YAY!) and couldn't bf which was weird. i felt a bit useless because i couldn't make him feel better. He was awake a lot at night, but he's coming right now. Phew!
He is allowed his little push trike in the house because the weather outside is yuck. He's awesome on it - the two boys race up and down the hall like crazies. The door at one end is ruined from them crashing into it, but at least it helps my sanity a bit.
I am amazed at his speech. Just because DS1 didn't talk at all, so hearing words from an 18 mth old seems so cool to me. He's just saying one word at a time although he does have a two word 'sentence' - he points to DH's beer can and says 'daddy bottle' LOL. His favourite word is NAH.
He eats like there's a famine coming and he's happy to eat most things except mashed potato and weetbix - actually, anything mushy. I guess that's the difference with DS1 being spoonfed as a bub and doing BLS with DS2.
He still wakes up at about 5.45 and then has a morning nap and an afternoon nap. Yay for me!
Been tandem feeding for 18 months thats the most exciting thing!!
DS2 says "mum, bye bye, dada"
He still prefers to bum shuffle but has been walking for 2 weeks but doesnt do it all the time.
He attacks DS1 a lot and annoys him buy grabbing at his clothes and stealing toys!!!
He still will not sleep in cot at all! Co sleeps everynight (will fall asleep feeding and I can sometimes slide him onto couch and will then wake around 2330 or 2400 when I will then take him to bed, Day sleeps only happen in car,in pram or on my knee post feed!!!)
Usual stuff happening here. DD is so cuddly and cute but is driving me insane by climbing on everything. I spend every 5 minutes removing her from the kitchen table, top of the couch, tv unit...anything...I suppose I could just lock away all my furniture but meh! LOL...We are still feeding and she has only really just stopped her middle of the night feed, so we're at about 3 a day. She's so cheeky and when she wants it she will grab my hand, lead me over to my rocking chair, pat the seat and say "doo-dor" which is her word for boobie. DS is almost toilet trained (never thought I would see the day). Both of them have colds AGAIN at the moment. Can't wait for Winter to be over. Been feeling really meh alot lately, unmotivated, just getting through each day trying not to be grumpy :/ Trying times.
Ladies it's been too long
How is everyone going, how are all the LO's?
Were good here, Z is talking HEAPS - 5-6 word sentences, counting to 10.
She really loves the motorbikes and yells "more donuts" when we go into the paddock.
Not much to report really, she has most of her teeth but i have a feeling 2yr old molars are moving around, we have tantrum central at the moment too.
She loves the library, books and just being with us and is still BFing.
and im gonna say it aswell....wow 7!!!!
