Kristy: Aww poor Isaac! Teething is horrible for them! Great to hear your mum is getting better.
Pix: Most days Ash is in jeans n tshirt but its getting too hot up here now...shorts n singlet tops now or dresses...can't wait for the dresses! Hope you enjoyed your walk!
Kel: I'll have to check out those channels. Thanks re the ticker pic, I love yours too! Keira is so cute!
Everyone who has changed their ticker pics lately...I keep meaning to say how cute they all are but I keep forgetting!
Missy: If I had of known SIL was going to say it I would have had a camera! It was priceless! Love all your pics! I love the one of Liam in the tree too haha
Tasia: Bugger about your long post!
Mel: I have to resize the ones you sent me yet, I am sooo slack!! Might be able to do it tonight if kids co-operate! Bout time with Chris huh? No Mellie slappins needed here now haha. Can't wait til you guys can come up and visit! Poor A falling out of bed! Least he isn't too worried about it haha. I have no idea what Ash weighs...I'd say it would be over 6kgs now.
Mez: Have fun at the park!
That reminds me (thanks Mez) What sunscreen is everyone putting on bubs? Everything I have seen says over 6mths and I asked the CHN who said not to use anything just keep baby out of the sun which is pretty much what I have been doing but that will be hard with a 2yo that loves being outside and esp in the pool
Im sick today, been puking and ive got the runs :wall:
A quick one while I can, though I have the bucket real close..
Kellxx- OMG backwards... thats fantastic.
Missy- DH got them, myer was having 30% off xmas deco's so he went for a look and came home with them.
IVF appointment went well, have another appointment on Monday & have to have ALOT of blood taken (same with DH)
Tania- Im glad you had a great trip and its brought Chris to his senses.
Mary- Have a great day, its so freaking hot here.. how I was just sleeping with a donna on I dont know.
Mel- Yesterday I was sending a txt to my friend and when I was scrolling through my numbers came across yours and thought that I should keep in touch with you more hehehe. Lucas weighed 6.1kgs the other day aswell.
Tasia- Gawd I hate it when that happens Grrr
Anyone wanting to have a look at Laila & Lucas pic with Santa its on my facebook!
Howdeedoooodeee...
Had another lovely day with Julie and Kristy.. kids had a ball as always. Found out in conversation that Julie's and my parents know each other!! What a VERY small world!!!!
Mel.. lol re A "falling" out of bed! Least he lands the right way up!
Tannis.. i just use Jesse's sunscrean which is a purple Pooh Bear roll on one.. brand is Sun Pals. It says on it for Baby and Toddler Sun Protection SPF30+, Fragrance Free Lotion for Delicate Skin. Doesnt say anything about an age limit. Ive used that on Keira and shes been fine with it.
Mez.. hope you had a fun day at mums group!
We're getting pizzzzzzzzzza for dinner yum yum.. cos i cant be stuffed cooking lol. Going to toy sales tomorrow morning to get Jesse a bike from IL's for Christmas. Gonna try and get there super early.. will be fun with 2 kids! lol but we'll do it.. where theres a will theres a way!
How'dy all
Awww well had a great time today with the gang. Talling Kristy, kell and the kids the Gang now...heheh...As Kell said the kids had fun and yes our mums know eachother. They use to play Ten Pin bowling together....lol...How funny and small world is that.
Anastasia dont you hate it when you do a big post and it doesnt work. ggrrrrr
Pix yes love that photo too. Hope your walk was great for you.
Yay on the weight gain Arimeh. LOL at hi daddy...how cute!!
Ayapi yes im doing great thanks hun. How you doing?? Oh I forgot to tell everyone that BIL had his first Cemo on Tuesday and so far he is feeling great. Nothing yet. Sister said they said the third day he will feel it. I hope its not to bad for him. Fingers crossed. Kell said her FIL didnt lose his hair so that would be good if John doesnt as he has the biggest elephant ears....lol...oh im slack.. Hope Izzy is not giving you to much of a hard time hun.
Oh Tannis I use sunscreen on liam. I just got one from the chemist for babies...the only crap thing about it is its a spray one and it goes every where so you have to spray it on your hand...
Oh Zee hope you feel better soon. Not nice. Awwww trust DH to get them...lol.. Oh great on the IVF. Let me know how you go.
No hotdogs kell...hehehe.. pizzzzza better anyways. I had BBQ chick and salad. So nice but love to have had pizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzza.
Ok girls and boy...lol...might bbl
Zee: Love the pics of Laila & Lucas! Sooo cute! Jayden has been asking all night to go and see Santa but I know he will hate it when we get there....might try and go this weekend if Santa is around. Hope you're feeling better soon!
Kell: Mmmmm Pizza! We usually get pizza on Tuesday but after the real pizza's we had in Melb it would have been dissapointing to have a pizza hut pizza haha. GL shopping on the 1st day of the toy sale with 2 kids! You're braver than me haha
Missy: Great to hear your BIL is coping ok!
Mez: I might have missed it but how did you go with tweedle (is that it? Sorry I can't remember what it was called).
Thanks for the response re sunscreen, I'll look around tomorrow. The sunscreen I have for Jayden specifically says over 6mths but I'd say thats just because they don't recommend younger babies to be out in the sun or for sensitive skin?? Its impossible for Ashlea to stay out of the sun up here, I might not take her swimming at SIL's house though as the reflection off the water even in the shade would burn her....am I being over paranoid?? CHN told me when Jayden was little that the more they are exposed to the sun under 6mths they had a whatever % (can't remember what she said) chance of developing skin cancer, that scared me too much so I was careful...but he was over 6mths by summer anyway.
Both my naughty children didn't go to bed until nearly 10pm! Ash had a huge 4hr sleep today plus 2 other shorter sleeps so I guess she is excused.....Jayden had 1.5hr sleep today which obviously is enough for him to stay up for 6 more hrs! He's at FDC tomorrow so hopefully he doesn't sleep so he will sleep at night!
Morning all (shhh I'm at work... supposed to be doing a final letter to the client, but hey, this is MUCH more exciting!!)
Tan - its ok - you slacker - hehehe.. just kidding.. take your time - I haven't resized them yet either!!!!!! lol... I can't remember what sun cream I use on the kids - its in a pink bottle..
Zee - they are such cute pics!!!! Hope you are feeling better today mate.
Kel - We got pizza for dinner too last night - whoops - there goes my diet.. haha!!!! Twas nice though.. verrrry nice... ;) HOpe you got everything you wanted at the toy sales and I hope it wasn't too hectic for you!!!!
Missy - thats good that your BIL is feeling well. I think remaining postive is a key factor in how quickly people recover.
Well better get off.. just in case the boss walks into my office!!! teehee!!!!
OOOOhhh I'm soooo nortie....
Morning!!
Well we did it.. got to the shops at 8am to put a Wii on layby for us for christmas & a guitar thing for Julie/Missy at Kmart. lol.. we were the only ones there walking in the door at 8am haha. But made things a hell of a lot easier! Then we went over to Target to get Jesse's bike, which opened at 9am. There was a few people there. Man its funny seeing everyone run in when the doors open haha. I have to laugh.. so funny. We just strolled in.. knowing too well that according to the ACCC guidlines, if they sell out in a specific matter of time, they HAVE to offer you a raincheck or something of similar at the same price.. otherwise its Bait Advertising and they can get in BIG trouble. But we were lucky and got Jesse's little bike. So cute.. hes gonna love it! Its still in the car hiding from him. Cant wait until Christmas day!
Tannis.. lol yeh the things you do hey! I was at Kmart at 4am on the last sale (minus kids of course!). But the good thing about having a pram with kids in it, you can barge the crowd! lol. Yeh i have no idea about the 6 month thing and cancer. We dont have a pool.I guess though if you really want to take her in.. just take her early morning or late afternoon when the UV isnt as bad and lather her up with the sunscreen. Just also then make sure she has a rashy on to cover her chest too and a hat. I always put sunscreen on Keira when we go to the park otherwise her little legs will get burnt as the hood on the stroller only covers her top half. Shes never had any reaction to it.. but do maybe try that one we get that is for babies and toddlers with delicate skin?
Julie/Missy.. no worries re the layby.. yes got PS2! Made sure we double checked. BTW when you go to pick it up, youre gonna need a trolley! cos the box is bloody massive!!!!! pmsl. So yeh make sure you take Mel with you if you have to take the stroller too. Yeh i did buy the hot dogs, but when i got home Grahame said do you wanna get pizza.. and ill never refuse pizza lol.. so we'll have the hot dogs tonight.. mmmmmmmmmmm... :D Oh btw.. ive added Mylee to my Facebook! Have also added Cheryl... just waiting for her to accept me. Also.. mum said to ask you if you know Judy Lovell & Steve Lovell? Theyre no longer married but mum was good friends with them, still is.. they had a daughter a few months after mum had me and we grew up together.. looked like twins when we were little too.
Okee dokee.. just hung out a load of washing, have another going... gonna be a stinker here today!!
Morning all,
Kell - well done on getting to the shops at 8am today sweet, you did really well. Did you have to wake the little ones??? You put a Wii on layby I'm thinking that I might buy it for my DH too for christmas cause he has been bugging me for ages now..lol
Missy - really good to here are your BIL and his treatment. All good signs thus far hey. I'm doing really well, much better now that I feel almost in control of everything and getting into a routine with little Isabel.
Tannis - Yes sweet it's Tweddle things are going really well Izzy is responding well to the new technique of going to bed and now sleeps 1 - 1 1/2 hours during the day which I'm happy about and sleeps through the night. My next mission is to stop the 10pm feed.
Mel - I wont tell anyone that you were on here instead of writing up a letter hehehe.. we would miss you if you didn't pop in during the day even if you are working ;)
Well I'm just watching my little princess doing a full 360 on her playmat and trying to roll from her back she is nearly there just needs to work out to move the arm and not have it out straight lol. Quick question, the last couple of days I've noticed that her poos are really watery don't know why should I be worried???
A big Hello to Belle, Zee, Pixie, Bear, Feeb, Tasia, SW and anyone else that I may have missed.
Hi all
Well back from the nurse and will post his results after this. Callum is next door playing with the 4 year old. Quick question, Have met them next door and have had the little boy here, but I dont really know them that much, have spoken to them abit, they have a little girl 15 months or so, seem very nice, but am I or should I be letting him over there by him self. He went there last week and came home crying cause they had to go swimming lessons and he didnt want to go. He just wants to go and play with him. Do you think its ok??
Tannis I wouldnt worry to much about the sunscreen hun. I just use the same one I use on callum. Oh Callum didnt go to sleep till 9.15pm last night. Its been like that for 2 nights now...:doh:
Oh yes Arimeh you are so right. You have to be pos++ hun. Ooooo dont get caught hun...hehehe
Oh god love ya kell. thanks so much for that. Oh really. is it that big, well it is the drums and mike as well so we can all jam...hehehe..lol at you lol at everyone else. I can see you know. LOL as your walking to where you needed to go re: that you went yest to see so you could get there with no looking around. Im so happy I got that as you have just saved me $100. They are usually $300 and some thing. I got a bargen. Wooohooo on jes bike too. He will love it. What it look like hun. oh good ill add them when they have added you. Just spoke to mum about the lovells and yes she knows them too. Said he left her for another women and now lives in Melb. Sound about right. Now mum said she knew a Vicki Marler hope thats how you spell it, is that your mothers maiden name. Geee small world.

Other stuff: Watches Callum so much. Oh and is a mad bouncer. Loves his bounc a net as he bounces of the lounge and watches TV.
Well better go
abit long this post and have to go get Callum
Hey hun
YAY on little izzy doing 360's...hehehe love watching liam doing that..does she push her bum up and push back on her legs too and move that way..oh liam does and its so funny to look at. I know its pretty go so far with BIL.
Ok bye
Missy - yay on Liam's stats that is just wonderful, he is going great guns.
Oh yes Izzy is pushing herself on her back with her legs apparently I did it alot when I was little too and had a bald patch cause of it lol... I love watching her it's so cool.
Oh hun Yes but thought Liam would have been heavier. Oh well. Oh Liam has a bald patch too. Oh its so funny
Mmmmm left over pizzzaaaaaa..
Im so proud.. i can put jesse in his big bed now without me having the lay beside him. I can just leave the room and he falls asleep on his own. This is just a BIG step for us.
Mez.. no i was actually lucky Jesse woke up about 6.10am so he got up then we had a look in and Keira was awake at 6.30am.. so worked out really well. Oh good idea.. well Kmart have the best deal going so far.. $384 for the wii and 3 games. Everywhere else is $388 for the Wii and 2 games. I want to get the Wii fit sometime too.. so will just keep an eye out on which will be the cheapest around. Oh what a clever monkey!! You watch that girl.. shes gonna be crawling in no time!! Then the child proofing fun begins! Even though our house is baby proofed for Jesse, its Jesse's toys i now have to worry about. Mez oh you shoulda seen Jesse's bald patch! He lost his hair on top, minus a strip down the middle (looked like a moe hawk).. then he had a bald patch at the back in the middle and a line of bald patch where he would turn his head on the bed or floor or whatever. Was quite funny. I think once he started sitting up it went. Keira has one at the back atm too.
Julie.. haha re Liam yelling hahaa.. my daughter already has a bad influence on your son pmsl! They are so alike with their smiling though hey! Both love the attention.. hopefully theyll be able to soon amuse each other lol . Oh keep em small! Least that way his clothes will get more wear. It is so crazy what a small world it is. Yeh i couldnt even tell you who mum use to bowl for in Pennants back then.. i think even it may have been Rockdale.. even though we werent from around that area.. very cool though we've both found Mylee! Lol yes its HUGE! haha.. well pretty big anyways.. lucky you have a pretty big car! Wouldnt fit in my commodore unless it was on the back seat. Jesse's bike is a 3 wheeler Radio Flyer. Has a basket thing on the back, where i thought he could put his cars or something.
Just a quick drive by ....
Tan - I just try to keep her out of the sun, but up there you probably need to think about sunscreen.... the chemist can probably recommend something
Kel - yay for the shopping... If I had a car I so would have been going to the Kmart sale
Missy - great stats :)
Mez - sounds like izzy will be on the move before you know it... and good to hear the Tweddle worked wonders
Zee - hope you're feeling better
Mel - mwah.... thanks for reminding me I need to resize some photos I took of the MG girls so I can email them
So - me, completely exhausted, suddenly we are doing 2.30 wake ups again. Supposed to be going to melbourne this weekend to pick up the new car but we haven't got confirmation that the car will be ready so haven't organised anything.... it's too last minute and it's doing my head in, especially since I'm feeling pretty knackered at the moment.
anyhoo, better run and grab some lunch or some zz's while she is sleeping so big wave to all I've missed and catch ya later folks
Hey Kell yes the kiddies are funny. They will smile at anyone. Its so funny, they will be looking at you and then when you look at them, you dont have to say anything they just get the hugest grin. I just love it. Oh Mylee yes you will have to come with me to have coffee with her. Cant believe they still live in the same house. I still know how to get there. Oh boy on the ps2 box...lol
Pix awww is beth back to the 2pm up time. Oh I so hope Liam doesnt go back to that....
Hi eveyone else. Hope your well. Oh its hot in syd today. Im ok in with the air:dance:
Login | Facebook
Liam rolling ova
Missy - Aww how adorable is your little boy. Very clever love his smile at the end of it :D
Missy.. YAY! What a clever spunky monkey!!!!
Pixie.. oh dear, i hope Beth starts sleeping through again soon.
Mum's coming down tomorrow and staying for a few days so i will be absent more than usual lol. Will check in when i can though.
Have fun with your mum kell
Thanks for the advice re sunscreen, think I will just do my best to keep her out of the sun and just test a bit of Jayden's sunscreen on her before I lather her up in it haha
Kell: Hope you have a great time with your mum...hope she doesn't talk about reality tv the whole time haha. Its funny you mentioned the ACCC, my niece went to buy something in the kmart catalogue today, she was at the door before they opened then when she asked about it she was told it sold out yesterday (before the sale started) and no she couldn't raincheck it. She is going in to complain tomorrow after I told her to threaten them with the ACCC
Pix: What a PITA re the car! Hope you find out soon whats happening! Beth might be going through a growth spurt maybe?? Ashlea woke at 4.30am the other morning and would go to sleep with the dummy so I fed her...then she decided it was talking (squealing) time!
Mez: Thats great Izzy is sleeping better! What is your technique? Not sure about the poo but if it continues for a couple of days I'd ask the CHN. Clever Izzy doing 360's!
Missy: Awww what a clever boy Liam is! Ashlea isn't even close to rolling yet I don't think, but I don't mind haha
Mel: I think both my boys are asleep so I might get a chance to resize them photos....just gotta check what Miss Ash is doing, I think she is asleep too. Oh what are you doing next weekend?? I might be coming down, not sure yet just thinking about it today.
Is anyone else going nuts with buying clothes for these babies?? I can't help myself I just got back from Melb where I spent 9hrs (over 2 different days) in the one shopping centre, plus other shopping there and I come home and still go shopping and buy clothes for the kids (esp Ashlea)....I'm hopeless!
Hello to Belle, Zee, Bear, Feeb, Tasia, SW and anyone else I missed ;)
Evening ladies & Bear :)
Wat a HOT one. & I HATE IT!!!! Hope everyone had a good day today,
Mary- Jonathan was crying morevthan last time. After a while he stopped & started again so I cuddled him & he was fine, then put him back on his bouncer & he fell asleep. He is much better now, thanx for asking sweety. That's great for Izzy well done koukla :)
Tannis- I was going crazy buying Jonathan stuff & I had to stop LOL.
Missy- Yeah I do hate it when I write a long post & I can't send it :(
I will have to write up Jonathan's stats when hubby fixes the laptop, he said to me last night it's hard to fix so I think he might take it somewhere to fix it, which means I can't use this comp as much :( Just letting u guys know xoxoxox
[QUOTE=Tannis;1513054 Oh what are you doing next weekend?? I might be coming down, not sure yet just thinking about it today.[/QUOTE]

Grrrr.......Just lost my post!!!

LOL Mel your too funny (not funny looking) I'm funny looking this morning, fell asleep with wet hair!
Not sure what to do today, take Jayden somewhere (to release his energy) or stay home and clean out the kids rooms......Whingy baby, gotta go
Well hi all
Awwww back from taking Liam to get his needles. Oh the poor little thing. He was so good taking the stuff in the mouth as he kept smiling at the nurse while he had a mouth full of stuff, very cute, the first needle he just went aaarrrrrrrrrr, then the second was screem the roof down. My poor bubba had tears running down his checks. he is in bed now and is coughing alot. Is that normal as he didnt do it with first time.
Oh Pix love the new ticker...awwwww how cute is beth.;)
Tannis yes he is clever but hasnt done it again since...lol...Im not worried if he doesnt do it again. I dont want to rush him as he is my last. Oh yes I know about sending on the kids. Kell and I got the smaller kiddies new shoes on wed as we did the buy on and get the second 30% off...We couldnt let that pass....lol
Anastasia dont know how id be with out my lap top!!

Hi to everyone else - you know I love yas!!!!! *mwah*
:grouphug:
Missy.. oh poor pet.. but brave boy! Hmm i have no idea.. it may be one of the reactions to the Rota Virus? im sure its normal. Just keep an eye on him though, as you do.. and give panadol if he gets too grizzley. I know Keira is gonna scream the house down.. there will be tears and all. Poor bubbas.. but i guess its for their own good.
Heyooo everyone else!
Man its friggen hot in Sydney today! Holey moley! Thank goodness for air con!!! Though i think i can see a storm a brewin!
Mum's here.. so just gonna make it quick.. Jess is asleep and Keira's playing with her play gym. Oh i soooo could nap right now..

Missy- I know I miss my laptop :(
Kel- Hey sweety, things are good thank u. How r u going?
BIG HELLO TO ALL THE LADIES & BEAR xoxoxox
Well my little boy was alittle upset today but you know what, I still got the most wonderful smiles ever. All he wanted was for me to hold him ( I didnt mind as I love cuddles and didnt really need to do anything), Callum had a good sleep as well so I just sat and watch tv with Liam in my lap. DH came home and took Callum for a swim, Liam and I sat out side and watched them. Was a nice after noon. daddy gave Liam a bath while I cooked nuggets, chips and left over stir fry. Melissa had a student free day so went to the movies with a friend and is now at a party. Nice social life she has....lol. Got Chrissy stuff out ready to do the house and tree up. Getting a real tree this year. Cant wait. Getting that next week, putting it up abit early this year.
Kids both asleep and now just on computer and DH watching cricket.
Lindsay thanks for the heads up on the hail. I knew anyway but nice of you to let me now.
Kell he was so brave. You should have seen him. Oh love the new ticker too. Cant wait to do my photos. Have fun with your mum too. Yes it was so hot today. Got to love the air.
Kristy hun how you doing after wednesday. Hope your feeling better hun. How is Isaac.???
Thanks for the happy 4 months Arimeh. he was very good
Well hi pix, the bear, tenny, tannis, SW, Belle, Anastasia, MB and anyone else Ive missed. Hmmm where is Mummab anyways??
Missy: Thats exactly why I'm happy for Ash to stay put as well. Can't go past a great sale haha, I have to keep remembering there will be more sales, I don't have to buy something EVERY sale haha.
Poor Liam, how was he today? Happy 4mths to Liam for the other day!! MB hasn't posted in baby buddies I don't think or she may have right at the start, I have seen her around in the BF'ing threads.
Mel: Thanks hun but I think you need your eyes checked LOL. Not sure about next weekend now as SIL's are going to Bris not SC like I thought....will see what happens though, it will be just me and Ash....Chris can have a boys weekend with Jayden.
Kell: It was hot here today, and its going to be hotter tomorrow! We went for a swim at SIL's house at about 5pm cause it was still pretty hot....going again tomorrow I'd say.
Hi to Tasia, Pix, Bear, Zee, Belle, Feeb, SW, Mez, Tenny and anyone else I missed
I am getting Ashlea's 4mth check up in a couple of weeks so will do the stats then but the answers to the other qu's are.....
Name: Ashlea
Age: 3mths 2wks 4days
Weight: Not sure yet
Height: Not sure yet
Head Circumference: Not sure yet
Feeding: Breastfeeding (woohoo!! Didn't think we were going to make it this far)
How Often: 3-4hrs
How Much: Very quick feeder, 10mins if I'm lucky....she gets very distracted
Other Medication: Nil
Day Sleeps: Morning: 1-1.5hrs Late Morning: 1hr Lunch: 2-4hrs Late afternoon: 1-1.5hrs
Night Sleep: Down between 7-9pm and will wake 6-7am (dreamfeed around 11pm)
Settles: With a dummy and cuddles, usually wrap at night (Ash also pulls it over her head with her hands still in it!)
Awake Periods: 1-4hrs, depending on where we are, what we are doing etc
Size Clothes: 000 mainly but some fits 0000 and 00
Size Nappies: Infant
Favourite Toy: The playmat maybe although she is more interested in her fist in her mouth ATM and her pink soft rattle
Milestones: Smiling since 4wks and especially loves to smile when someone tells her how beautiful she is...its like she knows what they are saying!
Other stuff: Loves TV no matter whats on, loves when Jayden says "Meow" to her and loves attention! OMG has she found her voice!!! We can hear her from outside.
Its been so quiet today! Hope everyone is having a great weekend!
Howdy!
Wow very quiet in here.. you must all have lives lol.
Missy.. aww poor Liam, though lucky he has his mummy to give cuddles! Ooow how exciting with the Christmas stuff!!! Im going to put ours up next weekend after our inspection is done Friday. I love Christmas. Have just ordered us some personalised christmas stockings (plus a blank one for baby #3 :o) and the kids some santa sacks too.
Tannis.. wow Ash still in 0000 hey! Thats pretty good! Wish Keira was and we could get more use out of her clothes! Oh cute re her smiling.. she is beautiful.. and she knows it! lol
Not much news here. Keira can sit up on our laps without being held. Actually havent tried her on the floor so should see. I wish she would stop growing up so fast.
Mums still here for a few more days and oh remind me next time shes here how much of a burden it is please.. im now washing up and cleaning (like last time) for 4th person. Ehh must look like a hotel maid i reckon.
Hope everyones having a great weekend!
Kel :hug: you poor thing. I reckon you should shove some clothes towards your mum and ask her to put on a load of washing for you. Maybe she doesn't want to offend you by just doing stuff - thats what my IL's say about not picking up Miss M if she is crying - doesn't want to OFFEND us by thinking they could just DO IT... :rolleyes:
Miss M is grizzling (needs sleep) so I was just poppin in quickly!!!
Tan - nope got my eyes checked ... I'm a little blind, but only with long distance... ;) So I can see you JUST FINE... lol.. tis damn hot today here too... only 24 degrees at the moment, but 94% humidity.. yuck... I hate November weather...
Hello to everyone else.. better go put her down to sleep...
Kell: Of course all her nice 0000 clothes she can't fit :rolleyes: I am still squeezing her in pumpkin patch NB size stripey pants cause they look so cute on her, they are more like shorts now though. Oh Ash can sit up like that too, but can't sit up on her own on the floor...I tried it the other day. I agree with Mel, ask your mum to do something she probably just doesn't want to step on your toes. SIL was cleaning my kitchen cupboards the other day and it kinda made me think....don't you think I can clean my house??? Then I thought well if she wants to clean them then go for it haha. I feel for you though, I don't like ppl staying too long for that reason its alway more work!
Mel: I got long distance problem with my eyes too. I love the hot weather but I feel for Jayden, he doesn't like it too much. Instead of getting Jayden outside early this morning, Chris put him in front of the tv and put a movie on for him and went back to sleep!! Any wonder he is like he is with tv....now he has done the same thing, movie is over and The Simpsons is on....Chris is snoring away and Jayden is glued to the tv.....Too hot to go outside now!
Think we might go to SIL's for a swim but this SIL doesn't have any shade over her pool so I don't really want Jayden in there until later....Ashlea is definitely out of the question. The other SIL has wakeboarding ppl camping at their house (about 40 ppl and tents everywhere) so I don't want to go there again for a swim.
Anyway Jayden is away from the tv now and asking to see his cousin (with no shade on the pool). Ashlea is still asleep, went to sleep at about 8.30am!!
Hey Mummas, bubbas and Daddy.
How is everyone going?
I'm baccccccck! This past week has gone so so so fast and I missed you all!
The move was good. We moved basically all last Saturday. It was kinda stressful and all
that jazz and I felt like DP hardly did anything, but that's another story. :rolleyes:
DS1 has been really good with the move. No hiccups or anything with his sleeping, etc so that's good as I was a little worried how he'd go with the move. Lol.
Bubbablue is great. No hassles. Sleeping fantastic in his cot. :hooray:
As for me, I'm still getting used to it. It's really great to finally be in our own home. It doesn't feel real just yet... it's more like we're on holidays. Lol.
MIL got her dates mixed up so she'll be here next week, which does suit me better cause I needed more time to settle into the house and blahblah.
DS1 had orientation day this past thursday morning when he'll be starting big school next year. I was so nervous about it, but he went fine. He wasn't clingy on me or crying like some of the other kids were doing. A couple of other little kids that he goes to preschool with were there aswell.
It's really funny that he's going to the same school I went to. He almost got the same Kindy teacher that I had, but she retired last month. I did actually have the teacher he's having next year too but it was in the later years of Primary school. It's so weird for me.
Anyways, I've rambled on heaps already. I'll try and catch up tomorrow or some other time.
:hug: all round.
xoxo
Hi all
Well very sick little boys in my house. Callum was at the doc's on saturday morning with a infected throat, Liam had a bit of a cough so at 5pm Saturday night was also at the doc's for Liam. He has abit of a sore throat but has had a reaction to his needles. He has sort of cold/flu and is just horrible. Sneezing no stop and his eye are like a tape. He is tearing up all the time. Poor little one hasnt cried once but has these tears running down his checks all the time. He has red eyes and looks like he has been crying for days. HE slept through to 4am and then ended up in bed with me and callum as DH went to callums bed. So havent had much sleep between callum and liam, but you know what, they both have been so good. Callum has just watched dvds/played with his toys all day and Liam has slept most of it. Has only had about 2 full bottles but hey at least he is having some. Both kids just gone to bed now. So might head off to bed and watch tv. Sorry for no personals.
Night
Helloooooooo chickies!!!
sounds like everyone has been busy!!! Same here. Apart from swimming lessons on sat morning I have spent the weekend cleaning. allmost all my clothes are washed and my floors are mopped, bathroom cleaned, I still need to clean Isaacs finger prints from the walls that will be tomorrow; they seem to be everywere.:rolleyes:
Missy - yep feeling much better thanks.
I was a little upset last wednesday, after isaac cried for around 3+days i was a little stressed, thankfully Kell and julie were there to make me feel better. and AF due next week probably didn't help either hehe...Isaac is still being a sook but im not as stressed about it now.
How are the boys missy? I give Isaac these lolly pops you get from the chemist that are to sooth a sore throat for kids, he likes them and they make him feel better. cant remember what they are called tho. your poor little fellas, i hope they are better soon.
Tennykins- Glad the move went good. yep my DH was good with the heavy lifting but i did all the unpacking. a womans work seems to be never ending hay!
God BIG school!!!! i cant imagine Isaac going he will start in 2012....yeeek...we are thinking about sending him to a private school and the one we were thinking about you need to register him now, how scary some parents register from birth. our local PS is crap they have kindy, 1st and 2nd in the same class and i always hear of people complaining that their kids are left behind in learning. its just too small. if i was rich i would send them to Kings, but at about 20K a year:spit:what a joke.
Kell - you poor thing, put her to work, i'm sure she wont mind. My outlaws do the same thing. i'm sure jesse and keira love having her there.
oh and with the ACCC and sale stuff so far we have used it 3 times once at Kmart to get a cubby, in the end they decided to get me one sent from orange FREE to my local store A bike for Isaacs birthday in Toys R us, they ended up finding me one aswell cause i kicked up a stink when i was told they sold out, and i made my sis kick up a stink cause they sold out on first day of sale for a radio flyer wagon she is getting my boys, they gave her a rain check but called the next day and told her they got her one. it pays to complain. a store will get into a lot of trouble if they breach ACCC guidlines.
Tannis- sebbi will squeeze into some 0000 size stuff. but caleb is a budda and only fits a 00. they grow too fast. I have so much baby stuff to sell on ebay now.
Ree sunblock- i have yet to use any, my stuff from the cancer council says 6 months. when isaac was a baby we rang the cancer council sunblock people and asked what to use on a baby under 6 months and we were told no to take them in the sun at all. the twins get sun but not very much at all.
Oh there is probably a thread on BB already but did anyone see the babies swimming on today tonight! tonight? i cried it was so sad. we want to get a pool but decided to waite till the kids are 8 or 9. its so scary. Isaac does swimming lessons and so will the twins.
wow lots of baby movement happening. the twins are still very much jelly babies and quite frankly im quite pleased with that. the quicker they move the quicker you have to tie everything down.
Anyone feeding baby yet? i know mine are older tho. we are NO way ready for food and i doubt even at 6 months they will be. Caleb is hungry but i increased his milk and he seems happier. they will l be 6 months on xmas day but i might even waite till they are 7 months just cause they are prem babies. what do you all think...
well gotta go i am trying to find a cake topper for the christening cake. there is one by "Me to you" its twin bears holding balloons saying babies christening but i can only find a pic no shop to sell it. I also need cake ideas. was thinking a gift box style or something.
well better run its getting late.
Hi to Tasia, Pix, Bear, Zee, Belle, Feeb, Mez, Mel, and anyone else I missed
catch you all soon i hope.
kristy:loveshower:
Tenny: Welcome back! I hate moving....especially when your the only one doing anything! Glad its all over for you....and how exciting being in your own home!!! Congrats hun!! How scarey DS1 is going to big school next year!! Glad we are a few yrs off that!
Missy: Awww your poor boys! Thats great they are being good boys for you though....you know what males are usually like when they are sick haha or is that just the grown up ones hehe. Hope they get better really soon!
Kristy: Well done on all your cleaning! I have to get bitten by the cleaning bug this week! I am sick of doing bits n pieces all the time, just want it all done so I can do nothing for a few days! Great to know the ACCC thing works, SIL or my niece haven't been back but they will go this week I'd say. I did see the today tonight thing....or was it 60minutes?? Anyway it made me cry too...I said when we were looking for a house that I don't want a pool until our kids are older. My nephew (7 at the time) used to climb up on the pool fence to open it and let his 4yo sister in, one day he pushed her into the pool when their mum was busy cutting someones hair in the garage at the front of the house...luckily Ella could swim but it could have been very tragic! Scares me way too much! I can't even leave Jayden in the bath on his own for even a few minutes!
RE: Solids, Ashlea won't start solids until at least 6mths, if BF'ing is still going well I might hold off a little longer. Not sure how it works with prems, if they seem ready at 6mths then go for it but maybe wait a bit longer if they seem happy....really not sure I'd ask the CHN next time you're there.
We went swimming this arve, I dipped Ashlea's feet in (pool was shaded by the time we got there thank god!) She liked it I think but I didn't let her in...maybe next time when I have the camera with me. Jayden loved it, I think we will go a few times a week to get him used to the water more and they have Wii fit so I can play on that....my fitness age is 30 only a yr more than my real age so I'm happy with that.....I really want to get one for xmas but Chris won't let me :( Its ok that over the yrs he's had a playstation, playstation2 & xbox but as soon as i want something that I'll use for a month and get sick of, I can't have it haha.
Hello to everyone.....Hope you all had a great weekend!
Morning!
ok.. re solids.. i wont be starting until KEIRA is ready (when she no longer has the tongue reflex otherwise its just a waste of time). I dont think an age really justifies when they are ready to start solids or any milestone really. Every baby is so different. Whether they are premmi, boy or girl.. they are all so different.
Re the sun thing. Funny enough, covering up and not going in the sun (not talking about under 6 months but just in general) can actually do you more harm than you think. My aunty has just been diagnosed with Vitamin D Disease... which is a lack of vitamin D from the sun throughout her life. She would always wear a hat and be covered up when she went out.. now she has to take tablets for the rest of her life for this disease. Theres something they dont tell you in the media!
Mum has been a little better.. lol mustve sent off the vibe to her lol. But she's done the washing up yesterday and helped hang out the washing. lol Kristy i like my IL's now. MIL every time shes over asks what she can do.. haha i love it.
Missy.. oh dear! Big :hug: to you and your boys. I hope they get better soon. Poor pets. Stupid weather aint helping im sure.
Tannis.. thats great Jayden loved the water! Oh we've had an Xbox wich DH traded in and got the XBOX 360 too. I wonder if you can trade one in for a Wii? I dont really like the xbox.. all the games are fighting and dark. Star Wars lego is ok but again just fighting crap.
Tenny.. thats great Hayden is sleeping well in his cot and the move went well. Oh good too Elijah's orientation day went well! Good to see you back hun!
Mel.. could be very true. Didnt think of it like that. Just leaving plates and cups everywhere got me a bit ticked off iykwim. Especially when ive always been taught by her and my dad to clean up after myself. Ahh well.
No real news here. Bought the CUTEST little outfit for Keira for Christmas.. oh its so cute.
Anyways best go feed the boy!
Have a great day all.
