OMG!!! you girls are crazy talkers!! I thought you were being quiet cos I didn't get any emails to tell me you were talking but actually you are all talking you heads off!!!
Sorry to hear about all the stress everyone is under with bubbas healths. That is not cool for anyone.
Amy really glad to hear some good news about your job!! If I could hug you snd take you out for a beer to celebrate I would.
Naomi I love the fact that you are so organised!!
Cathy- you have just reminded me and I will post pics for you on fb soon
Daddy and the babies had an early night last night.... Mummy got a tad sozzled and is still feeling the affects from lack of sleep and high heels (but on the plus side, no hangover).
Another week...looks like we will see some sun! It was raining a lot last week.
Some parts near me have been flooded! My street is on a bit of a slope, so I'm not worried.
All you ladies getting into the baby business!! Good for you!! I hope you all do really well! Bella, those wraps look awesome! I am sure you'll sell heaps!
Krystie and Bella...I wanna see Seaworld pics!!! (hint, hint) :-D Speaking of photos, I just got a truckload of my photos delivered from snapfish (had a special 9cents each)..I jumped all over any of their bargains online hehe. Oh my goodness I take so many pics!!
Yasmins turns 13 on thursday!! Gonna have a teenager soon!!!! OMG!
Cara is just into everything now she can drag herself anywhere. She dragged herself to Laura's dolls house before (I have taken out all the tiny things). Such a girl!! She's up on all 4s a lot too. Sometimes (very rarely) she will sit still and play. She did last night when I was having dinner. Ahhhhh
Tried Cara on cruskits yesterday..loves them! She loves banana, watermelon, rice cereal & banana/apple, avocado, pumpkin/sweet potato (in jar - about the only thing she likes of all the baby food besides custard), vegemite on toast... She likes those goulbourn valley tubs of mushy apple/strawberry etc too. Tried her on some baby yogurt today...seemed to like it.
Took her to the local pool the other day with our new floatie (Clark Rubber had sold out of their brand, but got a pretty blue/pink toddler one for $10!) I posted some pics (as usual...I do lead a quiet life!)
I better go do some housework...groan grumble. Have a good week ladies!
Sorry I've been so MIA lately. Things have been rather hectic here since we got back from the Gold Coast. I've had quite a bit of work to do (when it rains, it pours, lol). I have a couple of orders for Off Your Perch, my clinic needed me to do some printouts for them, and then a bunch of website updates, and DH also needs me to do some artwork for him for an event at the club. It's all good because it means money, but Kyson has become even more of a barnacle bub lately. He's now properly teething I think, and he's having a tough time of it at night. He seems mostly ok during the day, but he's just really unsettled at night. He's waking at least every 2 hours and won't settle without a feed. I've ried just holding him and rocking/bouncing him back to sleep. The ONE time i got him back to sleep (after much screaming and crying) he woke 20 minutes later anyway, so it just doesn't seem worth the effort. I've been waking up rather drained of milk though and then worry that there won't be enough during the day, but it seems to be ok. Last night we tried some panadol and it seemed to help. The only problem was that he fought like a tiger to avoid actually swallowing the panadol!
Anyway, I should stop complaining because it seems that a few of you have a lot worse things to worry about at the moment than me. I'm sorry that I don't have time to do persies (Kyson has already started stirring from his nap), but please know that you are all in my thoughts!
Oh, and I promise that the Gold Coast photos are coming! Stupid facebook is causing me grief. I've tried uploading the photos a number of time with no luck, so I'll just keep trying...
Hi ladies. Just a quick one cause I've got to do the bathtime and bedtime thing.
Krystie: sorry to hear about the teething trouble. It's hard when you feel empty, but I reckon as soon as he starts sleeping for a longer stretch you will know all about how much milk you've got! Don't stress - Phoebe has been on and off the boob so much in the last couple of months but mine still seems to hang in there no worries.
Cathy: Funny that Cara was drawn to the doll house! Phoebe likes the trains the best, LOL! But then, Natty is the girliest girl I know and she still likes trains. She is convinced that Toby the tram engine is a girl though, LOL!
Nicky: Glad to hear you had a good night at the party!
Was my first day at the new job today. It was GREAT! Had a fantastic time and I think I'm going to really enjoy it. The boss even bought me a lovely bunch of flowers as a "welcome" present (and he also bought one for the other secretary "in the interest of fairness", LOL!) and the work doesn't seem out of my depth, which is a relief.
Phoebe spent the day with my dad as mum was up at my brother's house looking after my nephew. I think we are going to need to start her one day per week in childcare. It's a bit depressing, but I think she will handle it ok. She's a sociable kid and does ok with strangers most of the time. Hoping I'm making good decisions for my family... It's a toughie.
Will try to come back on later. Love to you all. xx
Quickie from me too as Sean is bathing Bailey so I have a moments peace - I have a cling wrap baby at the moment.....
Krystie - If Kyson doesn't like panadol, I'd recommend trying Dymadon for Babies, it has a nice sweet orange flavour and I never had any trouble getting Bailey to take it - in fact he sees the bottle and smells it and opens his mouth in anticipation (little druggie hahahahaha)
Amy - Sounds like you are making GREAT decisions for your family. Sounds like the balance is just right and Phoebe will have a great balance of CC, Family Care and a Part Time Working Mum. It's really similar to what we will have here once Sean goes back to work, and I think you are making awesome decisions - your girls will grow up confident young women who will be keen to enter the workforce when the time comes just like Mum, and will no doubt appreciate and benefit from your own experiences in the workforce (and the big wide world outside our front doors - the one I have forgotten exists since Bailey was born LOL). A good friend of mine is a junior primary principle and she herself has had her own little ones in part time CC and is a big advocate, she says you can really tell the difference socially and developmentally in kids starting school, and it helps them adjust to kindy and school, so feel good about it! My neices were looked after by my SIL until they started school and although she helped them developmentally get ready for school, they REALLY struggled socially and took a long time to adjust, my SIL ended up regretting not giving them a little independence (she was always helping out at the kindy so they were never seperated from Mum, and then couldn't handle it when they had to at school), so just wanted to point out the benefits of CC as I know as a Mum I have felt guilty about the prospect of it at times!
Nicky - I hope Allira is OK, I saw on FB she has a temp - HUGS
And lastly Cathy - I CANNOT believe you are about to have a teenager - you DO NOT look old enough you yummy mummy
Away I go ......
And HI everyone else
