Raffy hun can you come and do mine? my house looks like a bomb hit it.
I am having a lazy pj day today after a long and sleepless night, yet again.
Sooooooooooooooooo tired it got to the point this morning where I considered calling up J and asking him to come and take V for a while. He's about the only person who would actually willingly have him and give me a break.
But if I start doing that now even in small amounts he's going to want him all the time.
So what do I do, apart from suck it up and get on with it. V has been pretty good today though, awake for a few small bursts of playtime and feeds and asleep the rest of the time. At least he isn't cranky with his cold.
Brydz - next time I have the urge to clean I'll head down to your lol may as well give you a break from v while I'm there
But seriously babe how R ya going? Is there anyone that can take v for a bit and give you a break? It understandable why you don't wanna call j. Hang In there. Im glad v isn't being grumpy and is sleeping good during the day so you can get some shut eye to
Afm - just went to spotlight and bought some wicked fabrics. Gonna make cooper a patchwork floor mat thing, spose it will be a bit like a blanket only I'm gonna put a piece of foam in it instead. *Yawn* so tired but i gotta help DF clean, we have friends coming over for pizza and movies. I have a feeling I'm gonna crash out early
Not much happening here apart from Alannah starting to sit up alone over the weekend. Spent most of the weekend just with Alannah as the boys were at their Nans, DH worked on Sat and then went fishing today.
Raffy - you are sounding so much alive and happier now. Very happy for you.
Brydz - you mentioned something about child care (I think) recently. What about popping Vinnie into care for a few hours a week so you can have some ME time??? Half a day even? I fully understand what you mean about J, I think I would feel the same. Wish I was closer to help you out.......or you could move up here! ;P
Just having a Caro and then off to bed if I can get the Mr off the lounge where he has crashed!
Happy 24 weeks alannah and happy 21 weeks cooper and summer
Vix - thanks I am. Still definately have my moments but no where near as often. How are you going? That's awesome about your girly weekend, sounds nice. And clever miss alannah on sitting up. Cooper can do it for like 20-30 seconds and slowly leans forward to much haha its cute but and you can tell hes starting to control his balance like when he starts to lean he tenses to try and stay upright
Afm - had a loverly dinner with friends tonight and heading down to newy again tomoro just to look at shops with friends which will br nice but I must sleep now coz the weekends over so I'm back on baby duty night all xx
Sorry that I haven't posted much lately - I too have been reading on my phone, just not posting as I have had a bit of a rough last week and a half and wasn't in a very good mind...
Brydz - Yay on trying Vinny with a sippy cup. I have tried Noah too, but he just doesn't get it yet....I'm sure they'll learn eventually. lol Great that Vinny is doing so great with his bottle. How was your visit to J yesterday? Hope you got to see your friend.
Raffy - Glad that you got spoilt rotten and got such great gifts!! Did you end up winning anything on your $21 worth of scratchies!? Hope so!! lol Have fun at your party tonight! Should be a blast!
Vix - Glad to hear that you're feeling better. Hope that you can get some rest/sleep and recharge a little. Whoohoo on Alannah starting solids. I'm sure she'll come around and I'm looking forward to seeing some of the piccies on FB later. Happy 6 months Alannah!! Wow, I can't believe how quick that's gone!!!????
Nikki, Meela, Clover, Sparkles and everyone else - hello, hope you're all doing well!
AFM, like Vix mentioned I had a horrid past week and a half with Noah not sleeping. He would wake anywhere between 5-6 times a night and not sleep for long during the day meaning that I had to keep going on very, very little sleep. I was starting to become very anxious and stressed and couldn't deal with it anymore. Thankfully Eng came over and helped to cheer me up and after a lovely, nice chat with Vix on the phone I started to realise that I need to pull myself together. I went to see the GP last Monday and she checked Noah over and he is very healthy, nothing wrong with him, except that he is teething badly. Could be why he was waking so often, although she also mentioned that rocking him to sleep could be another cause, so I have been doing the CC and although it broke my heart and it still does at times, I have been strong and persistant and it seems to be working. I put Noah in his bed as soon as he starts giving me any cues that he is tired and it takes anywhere between 5-10 minutes for him to self settle and he sleeps for 45 minutes to an hour and a half each nap now during the day. At night, I put him in his bed at about 6:45pm and he is fast asleep (without a peep or crying) by 6:50pm. He has also been sleeping right through the night until 6:30am yesterday morning and 5:30am this morning so I'm thrilled! I just hope I don't jinx myself by getting so excited about it. I finally caved too during the week and DTD and although it was a bit uncomfortable, it wasn't painful, but (sorry for TMI) I had some light bleeding afterwards and not sure what that is all about...haven't tried again to see whether it happens again, but I'm seeing my OB/Gyn on Thursday so will ask him about it. lol Also booked Noah in for his 6 months needles for Friday and said to DH this morning that I don't know where the past 2 months have gone as it feels like just yesterday he got his 4 month needles! lol
Noah is on nap #2 already today, his first was at 7:15am and lasted 3 hours!! He then went down for his most recent nap at 13:20pm and I'm hoping that he will sleep a little while, while I catch up on some emails. Got some dinner cooking away in my slow cooker and just had a nice lunch with DH so I'm feeling good today!
