Hi Natty - you always make me laugh and feel better thanks! You're so right, last night we butted heads and went in circles discussing it, he just doesn't get it so after her went to bed in a huff and I sat on the couch crying I decided to drop it, I give up, I can't be bothered wasting my energy on it. I'm not happy about it and he knows it, what else can I do. The b*tch best watch out though, I have eyes everywhere ha ha - just kidding, I know it's not like that on his part but I just don't feel comfortable with it all. Tonight's the night for the airport run so good luck to him, he said to come with him but I'm not waking Amelia up at midnight and ruining her sleep for that, what a tosser to think I'd go ha ha! Oh and well done on the exercise, that's awesome!
Hi Telly - another Amelia!!! What a good choice Congratulations. As for WW good on you, I lost 8 kgs on WW 3 years ago, come to think of it I have almost that to lose now so perhaps I should join again. I'm a lifetime member anyway! They sent me something when I was pregnant which went straight in the bin ha ha. I've lost 500 grams this week, woop the chook but it's better than nothing. I think being able to move around more is helping, I attempted sit ups yesterday, it hurt a bit still so didn't do many. I'm going to buy the latest Wii personal fit program and give that a shot.
Oh and go Theo, 8 hours wow that's awesome! Amelia only did 5 and then another 4, has been doing 6 and then 4 but that's ok. I'm hanging out for 8!
Al - OMG, I would be super mad like you at all that....completely correct - why cant someone else go and pick the girl up?? And then she is staying at your in laws place is that correct?? Do you know how long she is staying for?? God, you wont sleep well tonight when he goes out to get her...your poor thing....
Madame & Telly - Congrat's on relo's / friends having babies!! I have 3 friends due in the near future so I'm excited for them too...I cant wait!
AFM - Abbey is going pretty well...I have been off the chocolate now for a while so I think that's really helping her wind situation though I had a mild curry last night so she's doing some stinkers today but it doesnt seem to be bothering her too much....she's still pretty unpredictable with her sleeping...some days she sleeps really well and then she has days like today where its only 30 mins here and there....
They are at a great age at the moment though arent they??!??!! She's getting really good with making noises at me and it's like we have a little conversation sometimes...I'll talk to her then she'll make noises back to me and smile and carry on...she's also fascinated when I'm or whoever has her at the time is eating...her eyes get really big and she smiles and carries on...seems to really amuse her!!! She just loves her bathtime which is great although she likes going on her terry towelling seat thing in the big bath so if I'm hanging over there for 1/2 an hour my back is terrible when I stand up, but it's worth it for her to have a good time....
God, the weight thing....10 years ago when DH and I met we were in really great shape then we got 'comfortable' and turned into super fatty boom bahs....I went on WW in about 2005 and lost 38kg's (told you we were fatties!!) and DH lost about 25 just following what we did....great feeling to lose that much and I vowed never to put it back on but lo and behold along comes DS and it all goes piling back on and I'm battling to lose the same again....just have to get it my head that I need to do it...I think you really have to be in the right frame of mind to get into it....give me some motivational talks girls!!! It's too freaking hot to get the pram out and drag two kids around the block ten times a day!!!
Shayna the only reason I am so motivated is that if I am not fit I will lose my job. They make us do a fitness test every 6 months minimum… Ive never been really fit though but when playing sport or doing training with the guys it is so embarrassing if I am the first one dropping out or the most unfit person there..Its true you have to be in the right frame of mind but once you start and see some results it’s a bit addictive and I am trying to view it atm as my “treat”…time to myself that it can be about me and my self esteem…I got a really nice sturdy elliptical machine for my birthday last year. It’s a good one so doesn’t wobble when I use it and I’m quite big. I’m aiming to do about 1hour per day while I watch the news in the morning. This morning I couldn’t be arsed but did it anyhow and now I feel great…It also stops me eating crap because I didn’t just bust my gut for nothing..Maybe I’ll look at WW too, it sounds good
Oh and I LOVE the biggest loser and every year I never lose weight despite promising myself if they can do it I can lose 5 kg...I never do though so..THIS IS MY YEAR!!!!! Id like to lose 10 - 15 kg by the end of biggest loser....That commando! Face like a smashed crab but HOT!!!! Army training is EXACTLY like what he does so no wonder I am terrified of going back to work unfit..I will die! lol
Just quickly, Had our six week check yesterday...I have to take Archie for xrays today because the Dr thinks that he might have broken his collar bone during the birth
His body is slightly crooked and he has a dimple in his shoulder and the Doc said she can feel a lump on his collar bone that makes her think he has broken it. Might explain why he was so unsettled for the first few weeks. I feel so awful for him
But on the good side, he measured 62.5cm in length which is off the chart for his age so apparently he is gonna be a tall lad! Have no idea where he gets that from! He is also in the 90th percentile for his weight too. Thought he looked big!! Also had mothers group, there were only two other mums there as the others couldn't make it. The other bubs were both 4 months old and Archie was bigger than them both!! My little monster!
Brit's pony went on Wed.... Worst day EVER! It was probably the saddest day of my life! She was devastated!!! But on the up side, she said she felt relieved that it was all over because the thought of him going was stressing her out.. I am also picking up another pony for her to try out this weekend. Hopefully it works out.. there is nothing worse that looking for the perfect pony for your child... half of them end up biting or bucking or bolting cause people are not honest and just want to make money off the pony!!!
Sorry for the me me me post! I have the farrier coming so i have to go have a shower.. i'll come back later for persies x x x x
Oh no Kymmy!!!! Poor little man!! Gee i really hope he hasn't... i feel so sad for him.. ouchie! did he come out quickly? how could it have possibly broken? hope everything is ok 62cm! Holy cow that is very tall!!! Theo is 59.5 and i thought that was long! hahaha. Glad he's growing well! Actually the MW commented to me taht Theo also looks more like a 4 month old, haha - sounds like we both have some big boys on our hands! Theo is fitting 00 snuggly atm.. so i'm going to have to start getting 0's! Wish they'd slow down, and stay little for longer!
Glad Brit is glad its all over, i can imagine how stressful it would have been, waiting for the day to arrive. I hope you find a replacement pony who bonds well with her and isn't naughty - grr to ppl who lie about the nature of the animal, how irritating!
Natty i know what you mean about the biggest loser! Haha, every year i watch it feeling like the fattest person in the world, especially when i'm chowing down on KFC or pizza!! hahahaha!! But this year i'm getting pumped for it! Because i'll be losing weight too! woohoo! So far i'm finding WW really easy.. mind you it is only day 2! hahahaha!! Actually last night i had to have some banana and lite custard because i had too many points remaining! hahaha! If i wasn't bfing i wouldn't have worried about it, but i'm a bit concerned if i don't eat enough it'll effect my milk supply, so im sticking to my point allocation! Madame if you have one near you, definately give it a go! I think the hardest thing is walking through the door The door of shame.. hehe. Naaahh its not that bad, everyone there is lovely. I'll let you all know if i actually lose anything!
JDs mum - totally agree! Waaay too hot for walking around the block! My exercise is nil to none atm. Housework and thats it. I want to get a second hand walking pram with two seats, but keep 'forgeting' to buy the pocket trader when i'm at the newsagent! hahahaha. Wow what an achievement losing 38kg!!! Holy Crap! I know what you mean about it creeping back on, same thing happened here. I'm also a lifetime member gone wrong! haha
Alison - lifetime member here too! DH wants to get a Wii, but i'm worried it'll end up like the 360 he just had to have, its now collecting dust next to the hundreds of dollars of guitar hero crap he also needed. As for the airport drive... yeah i would have cracked the whip! haha. I rule the roost in this house, and what i say goes! bahaha! I wish! I think you had every right to be cranky. If it were me, I'd be telling him to get up at 12am every morning now to give bub a feed - if you can get up at midnight for a skank who you haven't seen in years, you can get up for me!
But seriously, Hope her stay doens't put too much stress on you guys - as if having a newborn to deal with isn't stressful enough!
Madame miss harper is just gorgeous! Looking more like mr tully! Did he have dark hair as a baby? Shes very cute x
Arimeh i can't believe Eden is still in 0000, how big was she born? She looks chubby in the photos, hehe, such a cutie.
AFM - well theo and kaili made up for the 8 hour sleep two nights ago. last night was a SHOCKER. Theo woke 3 times, and Kaili woke twice!! I knew i would have jinxed myself by mentioning the 8 hour run! Annnndd.. thats bout it! Pretty boring over my way
