Have finally got V done for a sleep, but will soon need to get her up for the school pickup. V is still all stuffed up with a runny nose, but happy just the same. Really pleased with my little princess she ate some sausage the other day. It has been a battle trying to get her to eat meat.
She seems abit heavier too, but I guess I will know in the next few weeks exactly how much she has gained. I did get her weighed the other day, in her clothes and she weighed 6.2kg, so I think she may have made it over 6kg in her bare weight, which is a woohoo in itself.
Have my DS's short film awards tonight, so fingers crossed he wins, especially the scholarship. Apparently a few members from the tv industry watching the event so with any luck a few connections can be made too.
Anyway, will let you all know how the night goes. chat soon hugs xoxo
I hope everyone is well and so are your little ones.
Kuraiza - Nice to see you back hun. lots of b'day wishes for your little bubba too. hugs
The ladies of the house (Bethany and I) are battling colds.... and not with good grace either. Andrew is VERY grateful he is doing long days with Best and Less (did I mention that he is doing a trial with them, setting up and new store and the opening, after xmas they will offer permanate contracts.) so I think I will go back to blowing my nose and sniffing.
Avasmum - A sounds like she's getting up to lots. GL with the house inspection tonight.
kuraiza - Nice to see you. Just to be confusing I've changed my name again - from Tanya to Moi. Happy 1st Birthday to Jude!
csab - Good to hear V is doing well. And it sure sounds like she's reached the 6kg mark. My DH is now impatiently waiting for M to reach 8kgs cos he wants to turn her car seat around finally. I refuse to let him turn it till she reaches 8kgs because that's the recommendation. He keeps asking if she's 8kgs yet but I have nothing to weigh her with and at the rate she puts on weight I highly doubt she'd be there yet. GL to your DS with the film comp. I hope he wins something.
amy - Hope you and Bethany are feeling better soon.
I'm doing a bit better at the moment. I have now made it to 3 weeks without a vertigo attack. Fingers crossed it lasts. And at the moment I don't feel like I'm swaying as much as I was last week so hopefully that is settling down too. I really hope I am on the mend. I'm so worried that I won't be able to have another baby though. The pregnancy really stirred up the disease and I wonder if I could go through that again. But I so want a second child some day. Luckily I didn't want another one so soon anyway, so I do have time to see if I can get well again and to talk it through with doctors. But I still find myself worrying that I won't be able to have another if I don't ever get well or if pregnancy will always stir up this disease.
csab - for your DS, i hope he gets the scholarship, you must be so proud!
Can't wait to hear how he goes.
So glad V ate some sausage and it's great you think she's putting on weight, hopefully that runny nose will go soon and she might have MORE of an appetite.
amy_o - you poor things, hope you get plenty of rest and your feeling better soon.
I love Best & Less.. will you get staff discounts? they have some gorgeous clothes for little girls!
Moi - Yeah Ava is into EVERYTHING she has no fear at all, i swear she is meant to be a boy!
Had a look at the house and we put an offer in so see how we go, it needs a bit of work but hey we can't pass up 4 acres and in the long run it's a nice open space for our kids and only 10min from town!
Helps that DP is a carpenter though and can get LOTS of things cheap or free to do the place up.
So glad you haven't had any attacks, like i've said before try not to worry too much about bub #2, when and if it happens i'm sure you will make the right decision for yourselves.
Hope M's going well and enjoying chasing her walker.
Got Ava's skin ***** test results today and they said the reaction was to egg so now we have to wait until the 9th Feb for her appt at RCH.. hmm interesting, no NEW egg products for her and she's not to try egg alone at all.
I'm sure it will all be fine, now to keep the MIL and relo's from giving her things behind my back!
Well DS didnt win the scholarship, but we are still very proud of him. He was up against the City private schools, and for him to come from the Sth West of Sydney he did extremely well to even get a look in. I dont understand how some of them won TBH, as they werent that great, but I am probably being bias. The others all had their teachers and schools helping them and also had the use of top quality school equipment, where my DS did it all out of school. He was very disappointed and we were disappointed for him, but as we mentioned to him, that he did very well. He really wanted the scholarship, but it wasnt meant to be. He isnt giving up on his dream and if anything it is making him more determined to succeed. He did win Best Film Editing, so thankfully he won something.
Olivia seems to be getting better, which is great, cheeky as ever, loves to tell me No!!! now. lol. Like come here Olivia, No...... hehehe.
Georgi - Good to talk yesterday, hopefully we get to catch up this week. Cant wait to give that little BJ a cuddle. Enjoy your stay here in Sydney.
Ava - GL with the acres, hope you get it. Make sure you let us know how Ava goes at the RCH in Feb, gl trying to keep the relos from giving her things without asking first. hugs
Moi - I hope M reaches her 8kg mark soon hun, your doing the right thing not putting her forward facing yet. I think V might be rear facing for a while yet. Its good to here the attacks have been giving you a break, I hope it continues hun. I sure hope you get to have another bub hun, I really hope that the DR's can help with controlling the disease when you do. Sending lots of hugs.
Amy - I hope you and B get well soon hun, and GL with Dh trial, I hope he shows them how good he is. hugs
AVA - well she took more than 5 steps last night.. YAY can't wait for her to walk it's getting harder and harder to fit her and my belly in the same small position!
Has a bit of a temp this morn and VERY sooky, keeps pulling at her ears so thinking it's teething but going to keep an eye on her
Oh her new word is CHEEKY.. yep you read right.. CHEEKY if the girls at MG hadn't been here the other day i wouldn't believe it.
HOUSE - had the finance lady over last night and we got conditional approval and we should know within 10-12 days if we get the loan, all goes well we settle on the 12th Jan.. 4 days after #2 is due!
I have posted a link to some pics if you want to have a look, it needs a bit of work but oh well, it's land and it WILL BE ours... (i keep telling myself it's gonna work out) Flickr: Photos & Video from avasmum1
csab - hope your DS keeps his motivation going and shows those private school kids that he is so much better than them by succeeding and being a BIG DEAL in a couple of years time.
How funny about being told NO... Ava answers YEAH to everything and every now and then throws in a NO.. can't wait til she realises what she's saying.
They are such little characters now.
Ava - Keep saying to yourself it will work out and it will. I didnt get to see the pics, it wouldnt show me. Woohoo on little Ava takign 5 steps, clever girl. at Ava saying cheeky, how cute. DS has applied for a few film schools, so will see how he goes. He has a few things in the works atm in which his agent is looking at for him, so we will see what comes out of it. Some of those short films were really good the other day, so he did do well competeing.
Well Had V's immunisation done yesterday, she seemed to handle them heaps better this time than the last few times. So far touch wood too, no temps. Had her weighed too and from 5.9kg bare weight 5weeks ago, she is now clothed weight 6.5kg. Diferent Dr, so different scales but it gives me an idea on how she is progressing especially since her move to cows mil and pediasure. She did stop eating when first starting the pediasure, but has been eating quite well lately has even started eating some meat. So very pleased with how she is going.
I huge to everyone else and i hope everyone is well. hugs
