I took DD1 to ballet, the Miss J and I went swimming and then in the afternoon we had playgroup so it has been non-stop action today! I am stuffed - bedtime soon I think. Miss J has gone down but it took an hour and some panadol as she was screaming like she was in pain. Could she be getting MORE teeth?
Meg- I noticed L pooed heaps more after the Rota Virus and we too were told about being careful with handwashinf for a feww weeks too. I noticed L were less yellow more a pale yellow ( sorry if TMI)
Overnight we had a soog start went down around 8.30 finally and slept till 1.30 woke again at 5am then co slept with me until 7.30, he drank so much booby milk whilst co sleeping that I woke up with empty boobs, weird.....
ANy way got him down at 7.15 tonight, we have been out and about this afternoon so his afternnon sleeps have been cat naps but he had a 2 hour sleep this morning...
A woo Hoo for us too DD Slept in her bed ALL night !!! Hooray , funny though she was cross that she had slept all night in her own bed....
Just a quick one before i call it a night.
I have L asleep in my arms as i write this, after a feed and i just love the smell of his milky breath!!! It is so sweet, The innocence of a baby, how quick the past 5 months has gone, yet I fel like I've known him my whole life.. I love being a mummy.
Thanks for letting me share that!! DH in bed snoring and needed to tell someone!!!
awww that's so sweet pinny. i love their milky breath too.
i can't believe how close we live- i go to playgroup in mt ev.
we'll have to organise a big montrose playground meet-up with jols soon, the kids would love to play
Not sure about the vommit smell, but it is fairly sweet smell isn't it?!
Pinny - I am glad that you got to share such a special moment.
Isn't there are really lovely big playground in Montrose??
I grew up in the East, and a lot of my school friends lived on the Mountain as I went to a private girls' school nearby. So I am pretty familiar with the area. If your playgroup coincides with me going to mums, I might tag along!
Tarkine- Give him a kick up the bum!
Oh - I meant to say that we hada good day on Sunday in Sassafras, even though I was mega tired. The weather was devine too!
Finally we had a good night last night - Miss J slept from 8-4 and then 4.30 - 7 and so did I!! I decided to go to bed when she did and I feel so much better.
Pinny - yep DP had the snip. No more kids for us!
Holly - DP does Miss J's bath. She is still in the baby bath and we only use water. She has one every night and stays in for about 15min then gets into her pj's, has a feed and then to bed.
Tarkine - yep I'm doing WW. Men! What's with cleaning half the bench?
Megs- I went to a private girls school too?? Which one did you got too??? Funny if it's the same one, glad you had a good day on SUnday, the weather has been fantastic like it's spring!!!
Hope you can join us if we meet soon, would be great to meet everyone!!
AJP- Not sure about the vomit!!! Actually I don't like it... I have to change L as soon as he has done it...Your a funny girl but talking about weird smells I like the smell of matches after they have been lit, and the big fat textas!!!
