Well Logan's appointment for his hip ultrasound is Monday the 15th at 11.30am. He is also getting a visit from Vision Australia that morning, and then he has the MCHN in the afternoon. I got him into the pead today, and we go and see him on the 16th March.
Vic- Sorry to hear about the IL's. Good to hear that you have some time away from them though.
BG- I bet E had a ball playing in the puddles. I can't wait until I can take Logan for a splash.
RAK = Random Act of Kindness. Its almost Belly Belly's birthday and they have the RAK going (same as last year) where if someone renews or pays for a membership BB will let them choose another member renew or upgrade to platinum also! It's all anonymous! Some beautiful person choose me!I've had an extra year added on to my platinum!! How frigin awesome is that? I am so inspired by the kindness, so I've paid it forward!!
I have been rak'ing (hahahaha) my brain all night trying to work it out, and although I thought I knew at first, I actually have NO IDEA LOL - I'm reasonably sure it was one of you guys though!! Who-ever it was - I LOVE YA!!
Guess what?! Kyson took his first solo step today! He's been practising his standing unaided like crazy the last few days and can now go minutes without holding onto anything. I got about 2 minutes of footage on my camera tonight of him standing and not holding onto anything while his watched his big brother playing the guitar. Well, this afternoon while we were home alone (of course!) he was standing and I kept saying "come to Mummy" and putting my arms out to him. Then he took a step! Just one, but he didn't fall over, he just kept standing, lol! I'm a very proud mumma right now
Krystie: Oh my goodness!! Kyson is walking!!! That's so exciting Krystie!! He is one determined little guy! So he is the first of all the May babies to walk??? Well done Kyson! And he hasn't even been using a walker or anything? Just practising standing up? Wow. Some babies are just ready early. I have no doubts Cara will take her time like my other 3 hehe. She does try to pull herself up a little...but she's so heavy, I think it's a bit of an effort for her hehe. She's just happy to drag herself on her tummy here and there.
Maybe Jamie will be next Jacinta??
Naomi: That's awesome about the RAK. What a wonderful belly belly lady to do that for you!
Saw a story that was on msn or something today. Woman given caesarean without anaesthetic This happened to me when I had Yasmin via caesarean. Well they did give me anaesthetic, but it wasn't enough for my tall frame (apparently they gave me the wrong dose). I felt them cut me and stitch me up etc. I had legs of lead in recovery. Yassie was almost an only child because of this. I was in tears in the operating room (for the wrong reasons). Thankfully Yassie was born healthy and well. I am so thankful to have had two WONDERFUL vbac births (Ronan and Cara). I did have to have another caesarean in 2006 (Laura) as she was breech, and I was freaking out about that before I had it, but they did a good job the 2nd time round. It was a breeze in comparison.
We are off to see a paed on Tuesday about CJ's head size got in on a cancellation - doc said will probably do a full developmental review (apart from rolling which am not worried about pretty sure she is doing all things she should be). Haven't been to see a paed before, is there anything I should make sure take with me (DH can't come but will take his head measurement with me)?
Yay for the RAK's! They are such a cool thing to do.
I had a bit of a mummy spack last night. Not my finest moment at all, and I ws so upset with myself. Anyway, today is a new day, and I'm determined NEVER to go that spaz ever again.
Hubby laughed at me, which made things worse at the time. I can laugh about it now, but sheesh.
Allira's alot better. No more runs thankfully, but she's still exploding from that end constantly. I was giving her some nappy free time this morning, and my floor mat copped it. So I have already hosed it down and have it hanging outside to dry. Might take a few days.... the mat was swimming. LOL
Other than that... same old. Boring me. haha. AF is being mean again.
I'm so tired even though we had a half decent night. Blah.
Bring on tomorrow so I can get everything out when I smash the ball at tennis.
Vic good luck today with the pead! I saw a pead with Lachie for a completely different reason, but don't remember taking anything special. Just the blue book.
If it's any help, Lachie's head was 47.8cms at 8 months. His head was 50.3cms at 23 months, so slowed down a TONNE! Hubby's got a big head, so that's where it comes from.
Gotta have lots of room to house the mega brains of these intelligent kids
Vic: I just thought I'd let you know that I measured Cara's head before..and it is 47cm too! She looks just fine to me. Laura's head seemed bigger..maybe cause she had no hair? I always thought Cara had a smaller head (well she did at birth). I have a big head myself, so does my Dad, and Cara's Dad and Grandad too. Hope the trip to the Pead goes well.
I just measured Cara's height (lying her down, head against the wall). She was 76cm! Off the chart hehe She's almost 11kg now at 8mths.
Big sister Laura (who turns 4 in april) was 110cm! And she's about 20kg!
Do you guys have blue books for your babies? Cara's is red, Laura's was red, and Ronan's was brown. Yassie had an old non covered book with babies on the front of hers. No plastic back covers back then. Bit of stupid trivia.
Ahhhh well I'm showing my age here..I don't have one. I just have a little immunisation booklet. Or maybe Mum threw my baby book out years ago? All i have is a birthday card (with pages in it to record baby weight, first things etc and even then Mum didn't record much..2nd child and all). My first baby photo I am probably 4-6 weeks old!!!

One of my bridesmaids had her 2nd bub today - 10lbs 10oz - Far out!! Her first baby was 11lbs 12oz! She's had gestational diabeties both times hence the huge bubs. Another boy so Bailey will have another play mate
Vic- I used to take my yellow books for the boys when they saw the pead.
Nicky- I don't even know what they had when I was a bubba, and I'm 26 too. (God I felt old as I was typing that). We are all allowed spaz attacks every now and again. Good that you get to take it out at tennis.
Naomi- I had a rough idea about the RAK thing, but didn't realise they were doing a heap of them.
Krystie- Yay for Kyson!! So clever!! I saw the video of him on FB that DH recorded.
AFU, We are off to Geelong tomorrow to move my sister. Have a crying bubba, so will BB Tomorrow or Sunday
