hey girls

ali- thats so sweet that everyone at your work loved amelia-how could they not! she is just beautiful! be good to see your boss too. sounds like a good group. are you planning to go back to work soon?
I have an ergo carrier and i just love it more so coz i got it for a steal on ebay! and also i made a wrap style one like a hug a bub- which is ace too. harper could stay in there snuggled next to my bb's all day! Good luck with increasing your milk supply too- wish i could share some of mine with you, i have loads! i soak through 2 breast pads daily and harper constantly coughs and splutters each feed. a real pain actually. hard for her to feed well in the beginning and im sick of having wet patches on my tops all the time

arimeh- as you can see im addicted to slings like you, but may not have such a collection! i just love them! as do our bubbas! i hear you on the close age difference. tully is almost 18 months so theres under 17months difference between. its tough. he is a bit little to totally understand and is just into EVERYTHING! but he is a real sweetie and i think too young to be really jealous. But i hope their closeness make them great friends and playmates when they're older. a friend has her 2 a bit closer and they are 5 and nearly 4 now and are just the best of friends. and maybe our number three will be close too! i'll be 28 this september and want another by the time im 30- not that it really matters. so that will be 3 under 4 if it happens that way! then i'll comvince dh that we should have 4! i never wanted more than 2 kids, but since these 2, i don't think i ever want to stop! he he definately 3 though.....
mekelti and my tully must be very close in age!

hello my dear telly! every time i read a post from you to me i smile! ok. have to admit it- i just love you telly! i think we are so similar! imagine you, me and natty in the back of class! he he troublemakers!
anyway- enough with my telly obsession- i too get all soppy looking at my beautiful bubbas. wow! look what we created! and i too would cut of my leg with a rusty butterknife for them in a heartbeat. amazing what you feel for a child. now i understand why my folks are so soppy to me still and im 27!
Harper is fairly clingy to me too atm and is actually sleeping on her tummy atm. whatever works sometimes huh.....
your fb photos are just devine too- what great baby makers you two are! kaili is such a stunner and theo! heartbreaker! i just love my boy- i bet you do too. What is your background?? where does kaili get her gorgeous skin and dark eyes from?
i'm in a shopping mood too and feel a bit rich too. our business is doing well and its a safe feeling having money for when you want. I have been browsing ebay a fair bit at the moment which can be dangerous.......but i did get the cutest country road dress for harper! love it!
oh and lastly telly my love- come visit your friend in melbourne and ME!!!!!!!!!! now you have more than her to just visit! Ubba is in melb too!!!!!
and i feel the same with tully as you do with kaili. he has been plonked inside in front of the telly since about 38 weeks coz i was just over it. poor little darlin. no wonder he acts up sometimes. i just dont know how to have quality one on one time with him with a 4 week old harper!

snowy- hope mr I feels better from his needles. DH had a bit of a cough and was a bit sore from his booster. i hate seeing the little ones get needles- i sook more than them i think! hope all is well with you guys!

heavenly- hope serenity shakes those sniffles and sleeps a bit better- and i hope jose is all good now. What a terryfiying time. scary just for you but more so with the kiddies around. very bizarre, but sweet to see how protective he is. hope it never happens again.

kymmy- hope you are going well. We had ds vacc and will have harper vacc too. hope you aren't too torn with your decision. fontanelles sink when they are a bit dehydrated- so it was prob just near feed time- harpers feels like that sometimes too. hope all is well

billy- hope ellas fontanelles arent worrying you too much, im sure its just a natural diference. how are you going with 3 kiddies?

natty- yay for V!!!!! im so glad she is settling a bit better. H has been a bit clingy and i feel as though my arm is going to fall off if i hold her anymore! feels like all day! No wonder my booty is still so fat- i barely move off the couch these days!

J'ds mum- im hearing ya with the poor un loved older child! i feel as though all i do is yell at tully sometimes. and everything he does annoys me too! im sure they will be fine. i hope you get through it ok and if you have any tips.....i'd love them!!!

hi to everyone else! hope you and your bubbas are well!

afm- well harper is 4 weeks old now! wow! where does that go??? feels like just yesterday i was 39 weeks and so over it!
we saw MCHN yesterday and harper is doing well. i was worried that she wasnt feeing enough- she'd a super speed feeder- barely spends 5 mins on a side sometimes- must be an effeicent sucker. She is a little porker now- up 700g in 2 weeks and another 1.5 cm taller! im so glad- it was hard with such a tiny fragile little one! A dr friend of ours says i must be a good cow! LOVE IT!
she has been a little unsettled with wind pain but infants friend has been helping.
i do feel a bit house bound though. its hard to get out with 2. havent done the grocery shopping with them yet. kinda dreading it coz tully has not co operated the last few times we went before harper was born.
having a bit of a hard time with my post baby body too. you all know what its like i guess. just hate it. hate how i look and feel. they are worth it but i just feel a bit down.
we are closing the cafe for 2 weeks after australia day. boy are we looking forward to that! we are going to go stay by the beach for a week to get away. poor dh is so tired. he works so hard. working for yourself is tough. tully will love the beach! he loves water!
last weekend i went by my self with the kiddies to echuca to stay with my folks at their holiday cabin that we have gone to since i was 12. being there was good but the 2.5hr drive was tough by my self. tully loved the river and we just had a few relaxing days.

think thats enough from me! what a rant

love
madame
