Been up to the doc this morning to get a new pill. So hopefully it will help. I told her about my anxiety (not sure if youve seen my other thread or not). She said the pill can cause stress and stuff like that so to see how i go on this pill, if not to go back and see her as you can develope a Post Natal Anxiety. Never knew that. So yeh will keep an eye on it.
lol yeh.. Keira settled down once Jesse went to bed.. every sound he made a sound she screamed.. like dont push my buttons brother! I did see the humour in it though.. man you shouldve heard her go lmao. DH and i were laughing so hard.. lol poor baby.
Yep! Tree is up!!! Jesse has been surprisingly good with it. Saw it this morning and got excited but thats it.. hasnt attempted to pull anything off. Have to playpen around it atm still though.
Tannis.. oh what a little angel!
Ok i have to run. Gotta quickly take some pics of the Phil & Ted so i can stick it on ebay tonight, before we go out.
tan - I think I meant the ones with older kids as well get matched up with ones with older kids.. or something.. lol... who knows what I meant.
Pics are GORGEOUS btw..
Hmm.. aricyn is chucking a fit bout something.. dunno what.. anyhoo...
Mez - yay for hubby being home!!!!! I can't imagine me dealing with both kids by myself..
Kristy - twas me that was asking bout the eye - cos I gotta get DS's seen to - even though DH doesn't think there is a problem with it.
Had friends stayin last night - had a few glasses of wine (noice) and played ten pin bowling on the wii.. was sooo funny... my friend came first, then me, then her partner, and then craig bringing up the rear.. it was soooo funny (but that COULD have been the alcohol.. lol)
Not much going on today. Haven't heard from IL's at all, even though they know that DS has pneumonia - DH called them on Wed to tell them - and they haven't called or anything to see how he is... DH is OVER it...
Gotta find DH a job in Hervey Bay - thats the only way he will get there!!!! Grrr... job schmob I say
Mez: No idea why I am staying up late now, maybe I'm not busy enough during the day haha
Kell: That's great you can go to the Dr's on a Sunday! Hope the new pill works for you. Take some pics of the tree....its seems too early for xmas things but its not far away at all!
Mel: I'm happy to do KK for the older kids too but so far you and me are the only ones with older kids who have said they will be in it....anyone else want to participate? Sounds like you had fun last night! Its your IL's loss that they are missing out on A & M thats terrible that they haven't seen how A is....How is he BTW? Quick find DH a job so you can move!!
I have had the laziest day today! I was up until 2.30am on the Wii Fit, then I was on it again this morning until SIL came around to pick it up . I went back to sleep with Ashlea at about 12.30pm, woke up briefly at 1.30pm then up again at 3pm....so now I am trying to do all the washing and cleaning up oh I gotta figure out something for dinner too!! Don't think Chris was too happy I slept half the day but who cares I NEVER get to so I think I deserve it! Both kids were asleep too so its not like he had to do anything....Anyway break over better get back to it
I'm so glad our guests had left. I'm still in shock that MIL + partner treated our place as if it's a holiday inn where all cleaning and everything is done for them while they just lay around. They really got on my nerves extra this visit. OMG. It's like when they want to go somewhere it's 'now now now, right now' but don't give me time to get the kidlets stuff ready and they're already out the door... then on the other hand when they plan to do something later in the day and I get all ready to go they change their minds and just want to lay around and sleep.. well why say you want to do it to start with if you didn't really want to!
When we've stayed with them before it was never like this, so I don't know what's different now.
I've mentioned this before I think from their last visit, but they did it again and so much more. They're pushing on DS1 what they want him to call MIL's partner. We don't think it's right he be called grandpa, so we refer to him as his name as we do with any other partners that are married or with the grandparents. At first they didn't correct DS1when he'd call MIL's partner by his name, but then they started correcting him every single time, then DS1 would say "sorry, Grandpa". I just don't agree with that and I seriously don't know how to say to them to stop it or if they'd even listen if we did say something. DP doesn't like it either. Grr.
One last thing.. They are religious. We aren't. They try to push it onto us when they know I'm not religious, nor did I come from a religious family. I grew up knowing about different things and was able to choose what I wish to believe or not. This is how we're raising our boys too. They were trying to push it onto DS1. I feel like our wishes are just stupid and not respected... again I don't know how I'd say anything to them and DP won't pipe up, which I think he should since after all it is his mother.
The funny thing is MIL is such a different person when her partner isn't around. I really don't get that either.
/end rant. :P
Sorry it's all about me, me, me. I just had to get it off my chest. I'll catch up tomorrow.
It's soooooo cold and rainy here. I'm hating it and I know I'll be hating the heat soon enough too so I just can't win. lol.
Edit: OH YAY!! My ticker picture finally changed.
xx

: spelling.
Tenny: OMG at your IL's!! I remember you having issues with them in the past about calling the partner grandpa, your DH should say something. At least they are gone now though. Your ticker looks great!
Feeb: So far there is 4 of us doing the KK. We'll draw names for who is buying for who and the limit is $10 unless anyone would rather more or less. PM whoever is buying for you with a few suggestions/sizes etc and your postal address. The actual gift needs to come to the agreed amount plus wrapping/postage. Any other suggestions would be appreciated
Tan - count me in! And your pics are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO adorable =))) Ash is gorgeous
perhaps the kk should be 10 for mum and 10 for bub - 20 in total + wrapping and postage?
tenny - grrrrrrr at MIL. I'd be saying LOUDLY to DS1 in front of them that he doesn't have to call him Grandpa as he has his grandpa, and there's no need to confuse the issue or detract from the REAL grandpa's status by having another grandpa just because he likes the sound of it. They should pull their heads in (and DP should chime in and tell them!!)
Mel - hope little dude is feeling better soon =\ You deserve health and happiness for all!
Pix - hope your little princess is feeling better soon!! And make sure Bear doesn't forget the kueh lapis - it seriously rocks!
Gotta scoot and entertain the girls (Alyssa and Linden). Luckily the same things can be done to entertain both the cat and the baby (well, entertaining the cat is quite entertaining for the baby - she loves watching Linden jumping around!). Waves to all
Heys guys, hopefully 3rd time lucky I will be able to post.
Was laying in bed with a heat pack cause I lsept on my neck wrong last night and it freaking hurts.
Anyone watch idol? My friend Brook who I grew up with partner is Luke. She gave birth to their baby boy Jordan Kade a few weeks ago (11 weeks early) so I hope he wins as it will make the time he has been away from them more worth it IYKWIM. Now at least people have heard of my home town Young LOL.
Mary- YAY on your hubby been home
Tania- Hehe yeah I had a party when Lucas was 3 weeks old and the party I went to the other night was a booking from my party.. its good stuff but bloody pricey.
Kellxx- I hope this pill works for you. Lucas screams when Laila screams cause it scares him..then Laila screams more cause Lucas is screaming
Tenny- OMG your IL's are way wrong, tell your DP to say something or you will and if you have to its not gunna be nice (thats what I do with DH LOL)
Mel- I cant believe your PIL's havnt rang to see how A is.. what type of grandparents are they? Not good ones..
Missy- What book are you ready? Get the lights up? We have ours half up and have had the tree up for about 2 weeks.
Kristy- I hope his eye fixes its self up, I had a lazy eye when I was younger aswell. Had to wear glasses from yr 1 till yr 8.
I have been bleeding from the 13th Oct.. over a freaking month. Hate this stupid rod!
Thanks everyone regarding the house, we are going to rent it out till mid next yr and then DH said we can move up or sell it and buy here in Syd. He is a PITA So we are still gunna fix up what needs fixing etc and maybe we can sell it for more.
What a busy day! Went and saw DH's best mate, his wife and their new bub today. Hes so tiny, lol well compared to boofhead Keira! Then had dinner at the ILs. Im soooo buggered!
Zee.. thanks. Hmm one of the mum's in Jesse's BB group had the injection contraception and bled the whole 3 months its suppose to last. I would go back to the doctor if i were you cos doesnt seem normal? Werent you getting it taken out anyway for the IVF?
Yep.. been watching Idol (lol and so has my mum pmsl).. but only cos theres nothing else on. I didnt really care who won but did just preferred Wes just cos of his Michael Jackson act a few weeks ago(otherwise i think he needs a hair cut and a shave! lol)
Yep ill be in the KK.. doesnt bother me what way we do it.. either $10 each mum/bub or $20 to bub.. or maybe if people have preference (like id just rather the $20 go to Keira then that info can go to whoever has her iykwim) If someone wants $10 bub/mum or $10 bub/other kid, they can request that. Oh isnt the KK suppose to be secret? With Jesse's group in the past we've just posted in the thread likes, dislikes etc. 1 person has organised it and sent out all the names and addresses to those who have each other. Just a thought.
Tenny.. id just say yeh we're letting our boys choose what way they want to go when theyre older.. whether they choose religion or not. We're not religious at all either, but i respect those who are.. as should they respect you iykwim. Yeh i would feel the same are MIL's partner. Hard one to say something.. i guess id just keep calling him buy his name infront of DS and when or if MIL says something to you, say well, he has a grandpa and we would like to leave it like that. hun i know how stressful times like that can be.
Tannis.. will take a pic tomorrow for ya hun.. cant be a$$ed atm lol sorry.. too tired. Yep my doc just does walk ins on Sunday.. so no appointments.. just first in best dressed.. so i was on the door step waiting at 8am when they opened.. was first in so made it good. Oh you go woman on the Wii Fit! I so cant wait to get ours!
Just quickly on the KK.....
How does $20 in total + wrapping & postage so it can be $10 per child (where there are multiple children in the family) & $10 for mum $10 for bub (where there is only 1 child in the family). I would also rather it be annonymous too but wasn't sure how it would work with addresses but as you said Kell, 1 person gets all the addresses and gives it to who's buying iykwim. It would be great to have it organised so we can receive the presents by no later than 20/12.
I've written a list of who wants to be in it, I might leave it a few more days for the others??? JIC they missed my previous post.
***If anyone doesn't want to be in it can you say so or PM if you'd rather just so I know and can get on with organising it,
Thanks
Zee: Yeah I love tupperware but there's something about spending $55 on a can opener that I just can't justify LOL. I'd get yourself checked out too, bleeding that long couldn't be good.
Kel: Np's, I can wait for a pic haha I couldn't be bothered doing anything tonight either I am still so tired! I want a Wii more than ever now! Although if I got one I probably will spend less time on BB.
Ashlea has been a bit unsettled since 7.30pm, didn't want to be in the bassinette, didn't want to be on my bed or in my arms, didn't want to be fed. I put her in the shower with Chris and tried feeding her again and now she is finally off to sleep. Chris is still in with Jayden, I could guarentee Chris is sound asleep in there and Jayden is still awake! I better go check...
Hey folks
Today I went for my day spa treatment the Bear got me as a birthday present.... it was great! so relaxing, felt very pampered! The Bear looked after Beth, but unfortunately we haven't given her a bottle for a while and little miss seems to have forgotten milk comes in bottles as well as boobies! the Bear had a bit of a battle on his hands apparently! Then he gave her all the milk in the fridge - about 240mls! Will have to make sure we give her a bottle every week or so so she doesn't forget again! And she hasn't really had a proper feed this evening - think she had a bit too much from the bottles! She is crashed out now though, so hopefully she will sleep through. All of a sudden she has got really good at holding on to things.... she was holding the remote today, very cute!
Tan - hon however you want to do the KK ie. however is easier for you. I don't really mind whether it's a secret or not, I just think its nice of you to do it and you should do it however is easiest!
SW - the Bear is on to it, he will definitely get some for me!
Tenny - sounds like your ILs are a PITA!
Zee - that sucks babe! I would definitely get it checked out.
Kel - it's funny how little newborns look now that our babies are growing so quick! Hope the new pill sorts you out.
Mez - YAY for your hubby coming home! feeb, tasia, missy, kristy and anyone else I missed.... snoozy time!
Feeb: Why didn't I think of that?? Haha I have PM'ed them now
Pix: Thanks hun!
OK this is what I think.....
$20 +wrapping/postage with your choice...
1. $10 Mum, $10 bub (In Kristy's case, a combine present for the twins)
2. $10 Toddler, $10 bub
3. $20 bub (or $10 each for Caleb & Sebastian)
So everyone who wants to participate can you email me (let me know if you need my email addey or msg me on FB) with the following...
1. Postal address (incuding name)
2. Your choice of how you want the money used
3. A list of likes/dislikes/clothing size and anything else to help the buyer
I think thats all we need
I will draw each name out and email/FB/PM each person with all the details of who they are buying for. Is everyone ok with that?
just a quick hello! gotta get ready to go out soon. bit of shopping abd coffee with kell.
Had a pritty good weekend, did heaps of gardening, pulled out a tree made some rock gardens (they still need plants tho) we have so much to do still, DH is going to take a week off work and do a whole heap but i don't know when yet.
mel- if you think A's eyes might not be right i really wouldn't waite get them checked now. my nephew has laze eyes and his will never fix. they waited till he was at school and now he is 70% blind in one eye, he will were glasses forever, the younger they are the earier you can fix a problem. theyare very good with how they do it. first they just look at focus and if they appear straight and then they just put drops in to diolate them and than look in then and stuff.
Zee- since your renting your place out you will miss out on the first home owners grant. what a bummer. and i had depro too. don't you have to have it out for 3 months or more before you do IVF. Good luck.
ok bubba crying now better go settle him and get dressed BBL for more
Hi to everyone else
I'm on my way out...just quickly can everyone either email me or msg through FB please as my inbox on BB is nearly full....If you don't have my email or FB then PM me but I think most of you have either or both

I went back to sleep with Ashlea at about 12.30pm, woke up briefly at 1.30pm then up again at 3pm....so now I am trying to do all the washing and cleaning up oh I gotta figure out something for dinner too!! Don't think Chris was too happy I slept half the day but who cares I NEVER get to so I think I deserve it!

I just don't agree with that and I seriously don't know how to say to them to stop it or if they'd even listen if we did say something. DP doesn't like it either. Grr.
