Babies born~November 1st-15th 2008 #2

Hi!

Just a quick one from me....have been busy with my new laptop and a change in email addresses - grrrr....having to change all my subscriptions and info - it's worse than changing addresses! LOL!

Boys are well - Ethan is walking now - he's so funny - he loves it and thinks he's so clever!! He's also talking a lot - pointing at things and saying "this" or "that" very funny...he doesn't have a whole lot of individual words yet though...

Sorry I haven't caught up properly...just thought I'd pop in - off to bed now! Chat later...xoxo

Kylie - just saw you were asking about the weaning - Ethan has gone fine with it - he doesn't wake up starving which is lucky but I just get him up and plonk him down with the boys in front of the tv with half a banana and he munches that...keeps him going until I've got the weetbix organised (or to be honest sometimes I jump back in bed until they all come and get me - LOL!!!)

Just a quick one from me - I got a faint BFP this morning. I even had to call DH into the bathroom to give me his opinion, and yes it is definitely a faint line!! YAY! Will test again tomorrow to see if it gets darker. Looks like due early August. Lucky we found out today as DH has his massive work xmas party tonight. We have to dress up in 20s style but no drinking for me now.

Kylie - wow that was quick. Lucky you:clap:. Lucky you did test before party. Congrats:dance:

I have had bout of gastro this week, and been ovulating as well. So I think we can rule this month as a possibility.

CONGRATULATIONS KYLIE!!! Wooohoooooo! How exciting!!!!!!

Robyn - Sorry to hear you haven't been well...best of luck for next cycle!!

Kids are feral this morning...so tired but of course they won't sleep...oh well...Chat later!

Hi Ladies

Just a quickie!

Congrats Kylie! How very exciting! Have fun at the Christmas party!

Robyn, I hope that you feel better soon so that you can get back on the shagging train! hahaha! Good luck

Kristie - hope you get some rest

Ok, Orders to make so I'm off!

Ciao

Oh Hello everyone, been a bit lazy lately havent really been keeping up to date.

Welcome to the newbies :)

YAY Kylie, thats great news :D

Hope u feel better soon Robyn

Kris- How are you feeling?? must be getting harder chasing after 3 boys :p

Not much been going on here, Charli's birthday was awesome she got rather spoilt, alyssa has had school orientation, she can't wait, ordered uniforms for next yr, i still can't believe shes gonna be in school :o
Charli is getting into EVERYTHING, my lil terror, she keeps pulling all the papers out of the filing cabinent. Arrghh! She is like a lil garbage disposal she eats heaps or everything and anything, i think shes gonna eat me outa home. lol.
MCHN app was couple of weeks ago and she tells me she is just too clever, weighs 9.175kg but she didnt write the head circ or height in her book. stupid $^%$^%. I'm so annoyed about that! Will have to call the hotline and get the info, apparently they have changed the method now or something, glad i wont be seeing her next time.

Ummmm i can't think of anything else and i can hear DP telling charli no which means shes prob getting into something else. lol.

Hope u's r having a good weekend :)

Hi!

At Bonnie Doon at the moment for the weekend - heading back later...kids have had a ball with their cousins which is nice! Am buggered though after a super late night and kids up at 6.30am!
Michaels snoozing on the couch now so hopefully I might get a break sometime but I won't hold my breath!

Kirra - WOW at Alyssa starting school - will you cry do you think?? I"m sure I'll bawl when Louis starts school - LOL!
I'm alright - getting a bit over not having a break but it's just a crazy time at the moment so won't be getting one in the foreseable future either I don't think!

Ethan had his check up as well and was only 8.4kg!!! My little lightweight - LOL!
Glad to hear Charli's party went well! It's so full on to think the kids are so big now!!

Ok...hi to everyone else!!

Chat later!!

Hi everyone

Kristee - what is Bonnie Doon?

Kirra - Ben is in to everything as well. pulls everything out of filing cabinet, climbs the chairs and stands on the table, throws things into vase on table. I keep saying 'no' and taking him off chairs and he keeps doing it and smiling at me. I must say, by the end of the day my patience wears a bit thin. i think i might move the chairs to the garage!!!

lol Robyn, i moved our coffee table into the garage until further notice :p
If only i had a rumpus room to keep her in, although no doubt she'd find something dangerous to do still......lil dare devils they r, alyssa was not like this at all, she is so cautious compared to charli :p

They sure are little devils - i don't have another one to compare to but omg he doesn't stop all day. He is such a boy. I am sure other babies don't go nonstop all day!!!
I moved all breakables up high - but might have to move onto the next step of moving the furniture!!

Hi!

Robyn - Bonnie doon is just a country town where my parents in law live! They've got a 100 acre farm up there...
LOL - yep Ethan's into everything as well - they're little horror heads aren't they! They think it's hilarious as well! Just keep being persistant - it will pay off in the end!!

Kirra - LOL at moving the coffee table...

We're fairly baby proofed here - def can't get any breakables! (actually I don't even think we have any - LOL!) I've given him the bottom draw int he kitchen of containers and stuff for him to play with so that keeps him busy for a while...biggest thing he does that I have to watch is to climb on to the very top of the couch, he just does it for a reaction but he's sooo cheeky! Luckily the boys tell on him if he gets into any mischief!!

Having a super lazy day today...it's soo needed!! Am excited to start out advent calender tomorrow - they have an activity or gift for each day - tomorrow is setting up the tree and putting up the decorations and lights!!

Charli does the same thing, nearly gives me a heart attack, she thinks its hilarious to run along the couch and try and climb over the top, thankfully shes only fallen off once :pray:

Sounds like ur having a great holiday..... i havent been on a holiday in ages......hopefully we'll be going away early next yr and im hoping we are gonna go to the snow next winter too but i've never driven up there before so not sure bout that one yet.

Well Charli is calling me so i better be off, i love hearing her say mum, its so cute :D

I've been reading about all your bubbas getting into everything and thinking how lucky I have been - well you will be pleased to know that Logan is finally on the move :) He is a bum shuffler and it is so funny to watch. I have put a little video on Facebook. He can now get into everything, but still can't sit up from lying down.

Kristie - sounds like you are having a great holiday.

We are going to SA for a couple of weeks (leaving on Sunday) so I may be MIA for a little while. I'm really looking forward to it. We are going to a wedding, haven't decided if we will tell the bride and groom yet or not. DH told his mum as he was dying to tell someone and I have told a couple of people from my mum's group as they knew we were trying. I am also going to have my student midwife again as she is in her last year and has to do 2 follow throughs where she does everything. I am so happy as she was great last time.

Hi!

I was only away for Saturday night! LOL!!

Kirra - the snow would be great!! It's not bad to drive up there - you just put chains on the tyres!!

Kylie - Yeah at Logan getting around!! Woohoo!!! It's about time he got into some mischief to keep mummy on her toes! LOL!!
How are you feeling??
Have a great holiday!!! Look forward to hearing from you when you get back!!!

Best get some stuff done...I'm such a lazy bones at the moment...

HI Everyone

Just a quick one as I have about 2 seconds to be on here & check all my emails!

Lily has started walking the cheeky little bug! She takes a few steps & then Clas & cheers for herself, the dag! I had to take her to the doctors today - her first time at the docors(apart from needles) because at swimming I noticed that her gum where her teeth are coming through was infected & raised. Poor Bubs. Doesn't seem to be bothering her though. Some food must havegot in somehow, dammit! Now she is on antibiotics. Poor Bubs, Piper's never had antibiotics & she's 3. Ah well, what do you do! Oh we've also cut out her afternoon feed - sh'e not fussed by it at all which is good. I'll chop the night one off(the feed, not my boob!) fter te nw year before I have to back to hell, I mean work!

Ok gotta go, I can hear trouble!

Ciao xx

Go Lily!!! It's so cute when they look so proud of themselves!!! Hope she's better soon with her infection...it's hard to avoid these things sometimes!!
Good for you for still bfing! Bugger at having to go back to work next year!

We got the tree up this arvo - the kids were so excited!! I love christmas!! It's so much more special now the kids are old enough to really enjoy it as well!!

Chat later!

Hi Everyone

Hope you are all well! Has everyone got their tree up? Ours is up - and it has a playpen around it to protect it from my stunt Midget (LIly!).

Not much to report here. Lily's bottom molars finally came through! Yay! And in all our focus on her bottom ones, her op ones came out too & I didn't even notice they were brewing!

Thank God Playgroup is over for the year! We are going on an excursion to a baby animal farm for the Christmas party next week - then I'm taking a year off from there! With Pip at 3 yearold Kinda I'm going to use that time to hang out with Lily!

Pip had her first dancing concert on Thursday & Friday. She did so well, the little Midge! I'm so proud of her! I have to work out how to put videos on FB & then I'll post her litle dance up there!

Kirra - Great minds think alike! I have been meaning to put up some baby stuff on FB that I want to sell for ages! Just a little lazy! And I finaly had it on my todo list for today & I see you've done it too! So much easier than ebay & paypal & strangers & fees.... :)

Kylie - How are you feeling? No morning/all day sickness I hope!

Robyn - How are you going with Ben being into everything? Fun hey! :) hehe, I just read your reply to Kristie about 'What is Bonnie Doon'! You have to watch the Castle! Ahhh can you feel the serenity? hehe

Kristie - How are you going? How far along now? Just found out a friend of mine due in March is having a little boy too - must be boy season! She has a girl & a boy already.

Ok, have to go, Lily is singing & carrying on in her cot, she got up early because she somehow worked out tha I was up early! So much for my plan to get some stuff out of the way before the girls get up! Pip is up too now!

Ciao xx

Hey all,
Just a quick update from me....

Charli just got her 3rd tooth, shes gonna be a slow one like lys but thats ok, the longer they take to come out the longer they'll take to fall out and she'll have stronger teeth for longer. hehe. Lately she's been getting into everything.
We put the chrissy tree up last thursday and atleast once a day she's over there touching it, doesnt help when alyssa feels the need to rearrange the deco's everyday though :wall:
Lys finished kinder on monday, i can't believe in just 2 months she'll be at school, im gonna cry, im gonna be a mess. lol. Tomorrow we have a presentation at kinder where she gets her special book with all her art work and photo's of her during the year. I can't wait to see it :D :D :D

LOL Natasha, i know the feeling only most mornings charli is up WAYYYYY before me, she wakes at 6am but i dont get up til 6.30, 6am is wayyyy to close to 5am. lol.

Oh dear shes crying again, prob bumped her head under alyssa's bed, thats her new hiding spot....cheeky lil mite.

I'm off
Bye
