Brydz - Cushie tushies are osfa. Green kids, but they are pockets. Itti's have a osfa too now. Its called the tutto.
Check out buy & sell your mcn's on facebook. Thats where I get all Summers nappies. Well most of them. Some are really cheap & still in great condition

Good morning to everyone!

Nikki - Nice to hear from ya, although sorry to hear that you haven't been getting much sleep. I too have days where Noah feeds almost every hour for every hour during the morning and then every 2-3 hours in the arvo. Luckily he still only feeds around midnight and 4am! Saw your updated pics of Ben and Summer on FB, you have gorgeous kiddies (as do everyone else on here!) Wow, 6.16kg!? I can't believe how big Ben is, although he is a gorgeous bubba and you're doing a fantastic job! hehehe Looking forward to seeing some piccies of your timber deck in your alfresco too!

AFM, going shopping a bit later today (if I can get myself ready) and taking Mum for lunch. I can't believe that she's flying back home on Friday night! I can't believe that it's been 10 weeks since she arrived and that she's going home already. The time sure goes TOO fast.....I don't think I have ever felt the time go this fast! Not sure whether that's just the way it is or whether it is because I had a baby! lol Tomorrow I'm off to the physio again, my back/tailbone is still giving me heaps of problems and pain and the heavier Noah gets, the harder it seems to be to pick him up and carry him around. Hopefully it will get straightened out soon!

Hope you all have a great day!

Love to you all!

Morning Mummies and Chubby bubbies!!

Pretz - Last night was a good night for sleep. Ben fed at 8 and then again at 2 and then 6.15am. Happy with that!! Yep my bub is one chunky monkey. Everytime I get him weighed its alway another 250-300g. Makes my eyes pop out of my head. Im gonna have to start putting him in Crawler nappies. The infants are getting a little too tight around the waist! Yeah the decking will be finished on Friday, then just have to finish the mulch, put up a shed, a few more plants and some gates. Should be hopefully done in the next couple of weeks. WOW I cannot believe its time for your mum to go home already. Sending you big hugs because that sure will be sad and hard for you saying goodbye at the airport Sending you lots of get well wishes for your tailbone. I hope it improves really quickly for you.

AFM - Bit the bullet the other night and DTD and it didnt hurt. Yay haha still, where is my libido??? Anyone elses gone missing? ... Except for Vix, you little rabbit, you

anyhoo, gotta run, playgroup in the 35 degree heat today. Should be fun

My bottle says Infants under 6 months - 0.5ml. Infants and Children 6 months to 2yrs - 1ml. Children 2 to 12 yrs - 2ml. Give every half hour for up to 4 doese and then 4 hourly.

AFM: Alannah is talking a little more but only when I can do one on one with her with no one else around.

BBL. Feel a bit yuck with this virus.

Thanks guys, I don't know why my bottle doesn't say it! The website does though so i called them & all good, 0.5ml!
Just gave Ty a bath and think he's now doing a poo!

Nikki - Thanks for the - yes, it'll be really hard and sad on Friday when I have to say bye to my Mummy at the airport, but we promised that we wouldn't leave it too long before we visit each other again. My Dad couldn't come this year, so they're going to try to come over next year (probably mid year) so that is definitely something to look forward to and in the meantime, we have skype and webcams so we can chat away and they can see Noah on the webcam! Noah would have probably been around the same weight as Ben by now if it wasn't for him losing 410g at birth and then only picking up 70g and 120g the first couple of weeks due to his jaundice and him being so sleepy back then. He is also gaining between 260-320g every week now and it makes me go too! At least we know our boys are growing well, no matter how much they gain! hehe Oh wow, 35°C!? Hope you are able to stay cool though. Enjoy the playgroup! We're just about to go shopping and out to lunch!

Glad to hear that DTD didn't hurt for ya! Sorry for TMI, but I still haven't DTD, mostly because my Mum is still here, and also because I'm too stuffed to even think about it, so don't worry Nikki, I think my libido is missing too and don't see it coming back in the next week (once my Mum's gone back home) either! Perhaps we should get Vix to send us some of her libido! hehehe

Raffy - CONGRATS!!!! What wonderful news! Very happy for you. xxxxx

DH and I........are NOT married. We have been together for over 16 yrs now! I guess that is what they call "living in sin"! I call him my hubby and he calls me his wife. A piece of paper will only change my signature and our marital status on Facebook! lmao JK We are talking about getting married though.....so I guess no engagement for us.......mmmmm.........

Sorry, only skimmed through. NJ is waking up now and yes...is sick AGAIN! Alannah has conjunctivitis so every feed she gets drowned in one eye with breastmilk!

This might sum up a few things too -
Dear BIL,

You were warned a few weeks ago that our boys had conjunctivitis. Now you have it. Please stop coming to our house when A) you can barely open your eyes and they are glowing red from infection B) can't drive and C) keep wiping them with the same dirty tissue.

By continually coming to our house you A) risk infecting my children and B) show that you have no respect for your brother or myself.

We even printed up information for you regarding it and you just threw it on the bench. I put it in the bin after you left and washed my hands.

If my boys missed two weeks of preschool in total because of their conjunctivitis, what makes you think you can keep coming to our house?

You are 43 yrs yrs old - grow up!

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Missy is awake!

P.S. Love you allllllllllllllllllllllllll.

[raffy]

haha Vix you naughty girl, living in sin, hahah i also felt the same that marriage is only a piece of paper, but now we've got coops i would like all 3 of us to have the same last name, not that we are planning the wedding yet. hahah i no it sounds crazy but we are actually planning another baby first. i think im crazy??

thanks Nikki. way to go Ben!! what a lil porker. thats awesome that hes doing to well. i too saw ur pix on FB, Summer and Ben are soooo cute. you've done well.

Pretz dont think about ur mum leaving, just enjoy the time you've got left, the rate the time is passing they'll be back before you know it lol

AFM - Cooper had his needles today. He screamed the poor baby, then i teared up and gave him a huge cuddles and then he gave me a BIG smile and fell asleep. then we got home nd he was in a nice chatty mood, but i think its all just hit him and hes been crying non stop for the last half an hour, thank god DF is on day shift so hes trying to settle him now but having no luck! im spose to be having 'me' time but im struggling coz all i wanna do is make him better..... i think hes stopped now might have a shower then go cook dinner and have an early night.

love ya'll
