    Naomi: How much is it for a photo with the Seasame St person Naomi? Bailey's pic was sooo cute!!
    I think it was around the $10-15 mark for a 15x20cm print. There were two photo sessions during the day with different characters, and the photo's were available about an hour later - They have a Sesame Street show twice a day which Laura and the babies would LOVE (Unfortunately Bailey was asleep when we were there hahahahaha)

    Naomi - Have you seen the Roomies pants in Bonds (apologies if they are old news just I had never seen before) - not sure if wide enough for Bailey or not but size 0 looked quite wide. Please ad the pic of your pants would love to see them, MC Hammer was cool once remember!

    Vic: Oh yes, I am sick to death of pooey nappies. Now that P is on solids she is pooing a lot and they are often big ones like Natty produces! I so badly want Natty out of nappies so I don't have to clean up as much, LOL! Great that CJ is on the move. Phoebe does the same, goes backwards and rotates. No crawling here yet.
    Nay: Yes, I remember you were having dramas last week. Glad Bailey has settled again for you. Last night wasn't quite as bad, but still was pretty crap. At least she settled with cuddles most of the time and only needed feeding twice.
    Great with the finger foods! I think just try whatever. Steamed veg, meat strips, grated cheese. Phoebe is doing both mush and finger foods too. She also loves cruskits, and tends to have one at morning or afternoon tea (if she is awake). She has her main meal at lunchtime which is usually spoon food (today was beef and veg mash out of a jar cause I was feeling lazy... and tired, LOL) and tonight she is having sliced cherry tomato, grated cucumber, avocado chunks and strips of ham. Very messy, but she's happy to just pick at dinner time. After this I will feed her a little yoghurt to fill any empty spaces - we don't have to try hard to get her to eat yoghurt, LOL! She has a separate dessert stomach like her mum
    Cathy: You are right, Phoebe is much more unsettled in the hot weather. Even though it has cooled down here a bit it is still sticky and humid which is very yuck! Phoebe also wakes once or twice a night usually but the last couple of nights she has been particularly unsettled. I am hoping tonight will be better.
    Neither of my girls have been into the dummy. It is odd, as I have nothing against them and tried it with both. Phoebe feeds to sleep and that works very well for us. Sometimes she will self-settle but only occasionally and only when she has a full tummy.
    Have a wonderful time on holiday!

    Sorry everyone else, I am still struggling for time, so know that I've been reading up and am thinking of you.
    I need to get this out though. I am really struggling with Phoebe atm. She cries every time ANYONE leaves the room and it is out of the question to expect her to entertain herself unless you are RIGHT THERE with her. It is really getting to me, and today I nearly lost it. Is anyone else being particularly demanding atm? I am wondering if it is her personality (dear God, please no), or a developmental phase (hopefully) or maybe due to some kind of sickness or teething... I am really hoping that whatever it is it is short-lived cause I am just about jack of her crying the day away because I'm not holding her every second.
    Phew. Thanks for that. xx

    Hi girls!
    I've been busy aswell... sorry I haven't been in. I get about 3 minutes to update my FB status and then I'm gone again.
    Had MCHN today and Allira's put on 2.2kgs in 4 months. Also grown 10cms in length adn her heads gotten 3.5cms bigger. MCHN was very impressed with her and then she decided to show off and stand up in the middle of the room on her own, without the aid of anything, with a big cheesy grin on her face.

    We've just found out that FIL has shingles and we were all over at their place all day yesterday! haha Joy.
    I think the kids will be ok... Lachie's had his vax for it, so he should only get it mildly if at all, and he's the only one who had contact with FIL. Hoping Allira doesn't get anything.... apparently the nurse from nurse on call said that if Lachie had some of the fluid from FIL on his hands and touched Allira, then she could possibly get it.
    I'm so flat out busy this weekend too. Will have to talk to hubby and maybe call the GP tomorrow and see if we'd still be able to do what is needed. The kids would go from here straight to my folks who have had CP, and it would only be hubby and I that are out and about and we've both had CP. From what the nurse said, that should be fine. As long as we keep the kids away from other kids and pregnant ladies which I would def do for sure, and my folks live out of town aswell which is good. Will see what Gp says anyway.

    Ok gotta go. Someone's screaming again. It never ends! haha

    xxoo

    Amy: Some days are really tough. I find that Cara demands my attention a lot too. If I am out of the room she will cry. Very frustrating isn't it? I've struggled with the broken sleep for 8mths now..but Laura was the same. I kind of wish I had not given her a dummy now too, as I have to get her to sleep...though it's kinda sweet to cuddle her to sleep. Just remember that it will pass. If you ever want to chat I'm often on facebook.

    Bailey is pretty clingy too, if I leave the room, generally I have to sing so he knows where I am, or take him with me, otherwise he cries. I used to think it was brace related as this become more obvious to me when he got it on, as previously I could pop him in his jumperoo and nick off to make the beds etc and he would happily amuse himself..... but perhaps he just loves me so much he cant bare to be apart LMAO!!
    I get ya though Amy - its bloody annoying, especially when you just need to duck off to the loo or sort out the nappy bag etc so we can go out......
    LMAO @ the seperate dessert stomach - I DEFINITELY have one of those!!
    Nicky I noticed the change too - nice, everyone still knows who you are and you got Allira in there - impressive!! Nice work with the standing. I've heard of shingles but can't remember exactly what it is?
    Vic - hadn't seen the roomies pants, off to google them now, thanks for the tip mate!
    Cathy - cant wait to see Laura and Cara's Sesame Street pic from Seaworld!! Bella and Krystie - you have to get one too!! LOL

    My mothers group (there is only 3 off us left) took the babies to a playcafe today and they LOVED it (and Bailey had a nice long sleep after - BONUS), I took lots of photo's. It only opened a few months ago and we will definitely be taking the kids back on a regular basis (and they make Lime milkshakes - YUMMO!!). I posted a million pics on FB

    Ciao for Now
    Nay
