what is with this dam confusing weather hot than cold than hot.
today is overcast with light showers and steemy, but when the wind blows its quite cool, you cant win.
Thanks ladies re the anxiety. Only had 1 coffee this morning, which i only drank half of and man ive had the worst headache all day.. must be like withdrawals! Not to mension i feel like a zombie.
Mel.. oh poor miss. I hope the new stuff works and shes not becoming like immune to it. Poor pet. If you find any patience, send some this way.
Kristy.. thanks hun. Yeh im still going to have my coffee when we go out but drink something else other than pepsi or coke. Ooow thanks for the muffin recipe.. Jesse loved them.. have to get some mini muffin tins tomorrow.
Tenny.. oh boys can be such drama queens cant they. Hope he gets better soon and sleep better tonight.
Missy.. no worries. Hey next week are you free on Wednesday rather than Friday for my place? DH just has his 1/2 day RDO next friday and if hes there we cant have our AO chat pmsl!
Ok Christmas in this house..
Jesse.. is getting a Basketball Hoop stand thing that adjusts from small to really tall, a Diego laptop, a HUGE emergency vehicle carrier thing that has cars and stuff in it, My first Leappad + books, a 3 wheeler bike (from ILs), a sand and water table (from mum and dad), a Wiggles remote control car + Doodlepad thing (from great grandma).. just need a few little stocking stuffers.. probably some matchbox cars (to add to his already large collection) and a little dora backpack thing.
Keira.. so far a FP Pram that is also a walker and a Learning Bunny thing. Going to get her some teethers and maybe something else small. Shes just at that age thats too young really for girly things and we have all of Jesse's baby toys.
Me.. a GHD hair straightener wooot!
DH.. a widescreen flatscreen monitor for his computer
And our family gift this year is the Wii... lol which is really more for me hehe.
Keira looked to be getting a little cradle cap so have sorbelined her up and about to go bath and wash it off.. BBL
Well back again. No worries about next wednesday kell. Im free that day. About 10ish ok. Whats the number. I know the road. Got to have our naughty talks...hehehe...lol
Xmas pressies. Oh now let me think, Callum is getting, In the night garden things, clothes, car thingy that cars go down, batman things(like the joker etc), spiderman (black one as we lost his) The Cars things from the car movie, Liam and callum's big pressy is a cubbyhouse. Liam some clothes, and a couple of baby toys, like, hmmmm to tell you the truth I cant remember...lol but not much for him. Melissa is getting PJ pants, shirts, tops, singlets, undies with matching bra X 3 and mind you they are not cheap, Pandor braclet, she has already got her new phone and some charms to go on it. Matt ive got the gatar thingy with drums and that for the ps2 and will get a couple of little things and me I know im getting a new phone and 1 x gold charm , 1x two tone silver and cold charm and 1x silver charm for my pandora braclet. Not sure what else matt is getting me. I cant wait till xmas.
Well mel has summer soccer tonight so bbl if not talk tomorrow.
kell - you'll prolly feel worse for a few days coming off caffiene, so give yourself a good few days to decide if it's working or not. Hope you feel better soon. As for DH's monitor - have you looked at Dell? They often offer a 24" widescreen for around $500 - and they're incredible!! You just need tyo get them during one of their sale periods.
Hope everyone is either doing well or doing better than recent not so good times!!
As for kk, not sure about specifying *too* much - kinda takes the fun out of gift giving... If someone says to me "I only want pink, size 00, and I need a sun hat" I kinda feel like I might as well just give them the 20 and say "go nuts". Does anyone else feel the same? Size specs I can understand, but there shouldn't be an expectation about what the gift will be - it's the thought that counts. I for one have something in mind already for what I want to give, and it probably won't go along the lines of any requests.... It's something that we have for Alyssa and she can't get enough of it - I'd like to share the joy rather than be dampened by requirements!! No offense intended, just my thoughts...
Yeh.. re KK ive just requested no stuffed animals.. because she already has too many, as does Jesse and we have no where to put them. But as for other things.. i just gave some ideas.. like teethers books etc, what else do you buy a 4 month old.. lol im having enough trouble myself atm to find things for her. But if whoever has Keira can think of something else, then woohoo to you
Missy.. haha cool. Ill sms you the number.. dont really wanna flash my address on here as i know some people know my street lol. Ohh woooot on the pandora charms for christmas!!
Sw.. Thanks. Yeh ill see how i go. Im not cutting it out completely, just cutting down. Im not sure if it will solve all of my problems though unfort.. but worth a try. Um.. not that into Dell, being if it breaks down you have to ship it off to India to get fixed. Well thats what i heard.. not sure if its still the case. I have a BenQ flat screen.. not wide though.. we'll just see whats going at the time at harvey norman.
Ok both kiddies are asleep.. lounge room looks like a bomb has hit it.. have my chrissy tree lights flashing hehe.. love it. Think im gonna go raid the cupboard.
Kell - I'm the same just no stuffed animals other than that its all good...
Other than that haven't thought about xmas - can't bear to think about christmas shopping..... haven't got any money to spend anyway so not much I can do about it! LOL
well had a good day today - had coffee and cake with SIL, drove Bear to the airport and then went round to my dad's place for dinner. Saw my brother and his g/friend who is six months pregnant.... came home gave DD a feed and put her to bed! Bay walk tomorrow so fingers crossed the weather is nice! sw, tan, tenny, feeb, missy, kristy (you're a baking dynamo woman!) and everyone sleep well!
god i feel like i have been up for hours already. oops i have isaac, woke at 5am and refused to go back to sleep. we are finally going to get santa pics today so don't really wanna start the day out with a bad tempered little man. hopefully he will nap in the car on the way to the shops.
Oh GOD my boys are 5 months old....how scary.growing too Fast my last babies need to stay newborns longer.

: lots of spelling errors..oops
Mel: Hope today is better for you! Funny how toddlers know when you are too busy! Aww your poor DH! Hope he feels better soon!
Kristy: A seperate playroom is a great idea! The muffins sound great, I'll have to give it a go. How do you get time for cooking?? Ash was up at 3am yesterday and 4am this morning, but luckily she went back to sleep. GL with the Santa photos, I'm sure they will turn out great! We got more done but just with Jayden and his cousin, can't wait to see how it turned out.
Missy: OMG 6 kids! Least your 2 slept afterward!
Kell: Ash's cradle cap is getting a bit worse again too, I haven't treated it at all yet I probably should though.
SW: I agree no one should ask for anything specific, but no one has anyway it has all been general suggestions or specific don't wants like soft toys.
Pix: Sounds like a nice day with your brother! Do they live in Syd too?
I'm hopefully staying home today, I have been going shopping way too often! There is meant to be a storm coming today some time but can't see anything on the BOM website. I have just done a load of washing so the storm should come about 10mins after I hang the clothes out LOL.
Well just did a load of washing, washed up, folded some towels and put Liam to bed and now having another coffee. Callum watching Diego so thought Id come on While I have my coffee.
Not much happening today, ill iron and wash as im going to mums on the weekend for dads bday. Liam was restless again last night, not sure whats happening as he has always been so good. Not sure if he is teething or what. I ended up giving him a bottle...and then he went to sleep. Wonder is he was hungry...lol
Love the new AV kell. Ill ask for mine to be changed in about 3 months or so. Ive only had mine changed when liam was born and had a change about 3 months before that. So will wait abit. Hope your having fun today.
Kristy I know they grow up heaps fast. Liam is holding his bottle abit when im giving it to him. I only really hold it with a finger under it so it doesnt drop as its abit heavy. You have fun today too hun.
Oh Pix and Kell im so with you with the stuffed animals...I seem to keep getting them...drives me nuts. How exciting your bro's g/f having a baby pix. Seems so long ago when we were all preggers.
Tenny cant go wrong with buying things for the kids for outside. If your kids are anything like mine they love being out side. I say go the outdoor things.
yes SW im the same. Its the thought that counts but I just have so many stuffed toys I dont know what to do with. But I mean if some one finds one that is just to cute to pass then im sure id like it. I dont really mind. But anyways doesnt really matter as its the thought. I do request that who ever gets us that they buy for both kids and bot me. My Christmas Is all about them now and not me. Id be happy not to get anything and just watch them open their pressies up. That the best pressy for me of all. Seeing their faces.
Arimeh dont you love it when your trying to do some thing and they are climbing over you....lol
Tannis yes I was lucky they went to sleep. Oh lol at the comment about the rain coming as you hung the washing out. That is so the way.
Well better head off as a g/f just rang and wanted to come over. Im still in pjs. Have a nice day all.
OMG - she's not crawling yet as she can't hold her weight, but Alyssa has reverse working by scooching around on her hands and belly and using her knees. So it seems that when she's not rolling for the alcohol cabinet, she's reversing towards the kitchen (maybe she's making sure she can get there so that by the time she makes it to the tequila she can also take care of her drunken munchies). She's not even 4 months yet - SLOW DOWN!!!
At least we'll be in Adelaide next week - I wanted her there before she got too mobile.
OK - reversed into the TV cabinet now - complaining that she can't get any further. Better go save her =) Waves to all!!
Well we have been to the Royal Childrens Hospital this morning for Isabel's 4 mth needles she cried a little but not as bad as her last ones. I was much better too but I still had my DH come along just in case Isabel still has her cold and a really bad RED bottom don't know if it's from all her poos or cause she is starting to teeth
SW - Oh good luck with your move sweet, I'm sure that everything will run smoothly. I can't believe how quickly little Alyssa is moving around for you guys she is really wanting to get on the move hey lol.
Missy - I too have put a load of washing on hung it out and now getting ready to give the house a vacuum as it's very dusty (floorboards) I hope your day is better with little Liam.
Mel - I hope your DH gets better soon sweet.
Pixie - I can't remember but how long is the Bear away for?? My DH is leaving again tomorrow for Vietnam but will be home Sunday afternoon his last trip for the year woohoo....
Well better go Izzy is crying I have to go and give her the dummy again...BBL
Thanks for the advice regarding the rod.. my Dr wants me to wait 3 months and see what happens after that. Apparently I dont need it out for the IVF (thats what my Dr said and they have it on my file at the IVF clinic and they havnt said anything). I used to get the Depo injections every 3 months but didnt want to get that this time cause I feel pregnant with Laila so hopefully this rod sorts out soon cause its in for 3 yrs.
HAPPY 5 MONTHS Sebastian and Caleb!!!
Rach- Oh sorry hun I just got your PM, im so sorry I forgot
Tania- Yeah I know, I just keep telling DH that we will have the tupperware till we die LOL
Mel- Laila is trying to type while im typing its hard LOL
Mary- Yay on your DH going on his last trip for the year..id hate to have DH go away so much. I hate been here of a nighttime by myself with the kids LOL.
Kellxx- Lucas has abit of cradle cap today aswell, might go lather him up.
Hmm xmas pressies.. Laila: Cubbyhouse, Swingset with slide, sand pit, another bike, a Dorothy rocker (like a rocking horse but its dorothy), one of the rocker things (forgot what they are called) for the outside where someone is on either end. Um I dont think I will buy her anything else from us cause she will get heaps off family
Lucas Fisher price activity table, Fisher price drums that play music, baby seat for the swing, clothes so far.
Awww well havent done any ironing as my friend just left..grrrrr I was so set for ironing...well both kiddies in bed and now will try and get some done.
Happy 5 months Sebastian and Caleb!!!
I can't believe they're 5 months already.
Kristy - Good luck with the photos. I hope your little man slept in the car and was in a great mood for the photos.
Kell - Do you only treat Keira's cradlecap when it gets really bad? Bubbablue has a little bit now. It comes and goes. I don't usually do anything about it. I don't know if I should be or not. Lol. Does doing something about it help it get better faster???
Zee - I hoe the rod goes alright. I was thinking of getting one of those one time but I heard loads of bad things about it and plus my own doctor couldn't do it for me, so it turned me off. How's the IVF road coming along?
Pixie - Enjoy your walk. I hope today's weather is good for it.
Missy - I hope today is better with Liam. You can come and do my folding and all that jazz if you like. Yeah, DS1 loves the outdoors, so that's gives some ideas for us. Yuck! I hate ironing, so I never hardly do it. We haven't even bought an iron yet. LOL
SW - You've got a little mover on your hands! Sounds like she's dying to get around by herself. So cute.
Mel - I hope your DH gets better soon. Lol @ your DS.
Mez - YAY! I'm glad your DD was good for her needles. I drag my DP along with me for all our immunisations. I can't handle it by myself. Bubbablue was really good with his last week. Even better then the first lot. He wasn't even unsettled or need any panadol this time either which was suprising cause his legs hurt alot the first time. Woohoo for this being your DH's last trip of the year!!!!
Thanks for replying about what you're buying your kid(lets).
I made DP give me ideas so it wasn't just all me thinking of stuff like usual, and even then he still wasn't much help. He mostly just playing poker online while I made suggestions.
Finally my whingy little man is sleeping.
He's been fighting sleep ever since he woke up this morning. Hopefully he'll sleep for most the afternoon too.
Tan, Tasia, Belle, Sweetpea, Feeb, and everyone else.
xx
