Babis Born July 16th ~ 31st 2008 #6

Hi all

Wow you all been talking up a storm. I have been coming on and reading but just havent had time to post. Been abit busy. Just finished cleaning the house and some washing and just about to read abit before callum is due to come home. Liam is in bed and sleeping and im stuffed. He was very unsettled last night. I fed him at 10.30pm then he woke at 11.30 with the worst pains I have ever seen him in. Poor little thing. I gave him some infant friend to see if that would help and he did some burps but still was screaming. And I mean screaming. I was getting all worried myself. In the end after about 45 mins of screaming and pacing up and down the hall, I gave him some panadole. After about 20mins he drifted off. Then he woke at 4.50am and was in bed with me untill callum came in at 5.45. So abit tired but just glad he is ok. I was really starting to worry as he has never been like that. So I think I will relax. Ive just got some chicken wings in the fridge marrinating and will have them with mash potatos and salad.

Well sorry no personals.

bbl..

Mez: I hope Isabel gets better soon hun, poor thing! YAY for DH being home!

Missy: You've been a busy girl today!! Poor Liam, hope he is feeling ok tonight do you think he is coming down with something or just had a bad pain?

:welcome: Sweetpea! Reaghan is a gorgeous name! She sounds like a great little sleeper! And so strong too! My DS was standing with support at that age whereas DD isn't even rolling yet, suits me though least I know when I put her down she will stay there haha.

Kristy: Hope you get a good night sleep!

KK:
I am writing out a list of everyone who has replied with all the details, when everyone was replied (I have sent a couple of msg's for more info). Hopefully everyone who wants to be in it has replied by say Thursday so Friday I will draw the names and email everyone who they have.

Thanks everyone who commented on the photos, Ash is really starting to get her own look now I think, my fav pic of her is the one with the headband, I took another one of her today in a different headband so cute! Today while we were shopping, she was laying flat in the pram and was doing tummy crunches, she was really digging her elbows in to push up. I got it on video so I just have to work out how to put that on to FB! Well I better go to bed, Ashlea has been waking at 6am lately no matter what time I dream feed her!

Morning all...

today we are having a home day, as we speak Isaac is jumping on our bed (little bugger) Sebi is watching TV and Caleb is jumping in the jumperoo chatting to sebi.

thought i would just take a second to say good morning and have a nice day.

Feeb- we are doing pritty good thanks. I wish i was wonder woman than i could get what i need to done in no time at all. i have a tornado who follows me around trashing things as i clean them.

Tannis- the twins cant role yet either.

i hope it stays sunny today i have so much washing to do, this rain might help the grass but with 3 terrors i get way to far behind. and hint if you need to buy a washing maching front end loaders are CRAP almost 2 hours for a small load. grrr.

better get cleaning. i think its a mopping day.
back later far another chat.

xoxoxox

:hello: sweetpea great to have you on board! We have an amby hammock too and DD loves it!
Kristy, tan DD isn't rolling yet either.... she tried for a while and now she seems to have lost interest a bit
Kel noticed from some other threads you've been having some issues so hope everything's ok with you
The Bear is off to singapore today, and sil is coming over a bit later to go and have cake at Zumbo's (yummy cake/ chocolate shop in Balmain)
big hi to Mel, Mez, missy, tasia, tenny, feeb, sw and everyone, gotta run and have a shower while little miss is sleeping

Morning!

Mez... Thanks hun.. hope Izzy gets better soon hun.

Missy... oh dear poor Liam.. how was he last night? Hope you got some sleep. Keira been doing a similar thing lately, but its when something has startled her, or woke her from her sleep. She cries hysterically, screaming and that. I wonder if it is they are teething and are a bit touchy. Wonder if Liam is the same?

sweetpea.. welcome to our group :) lol yes we move fast in here some days.

Tannis.. oh i love the pic of Ash sitting on the jumping castle on FB.. so cute!

Pixie.. thanks so much hun.Yeh its just hard to work out how to get rid of it is all. DH thinks im drinking too much caffeine.. so am gonna give that a go in cutting it down.. but i love my coffee and Pepsi so will be hard! lol.. but yeh its not a nice feeling. Thanks for your support. Oh enjoy your cake! Have some for me! Hope Bear brings home some nice pressies for you!

Well, my anxiety aint getting any better. As i mensioned to pixie.. im going to cut down on the caffeine a bit and see if that makes any difference. What doesnt help is when im already feeling crap, mum mensions to me that her thyroid problem can be hireditory (sp), causes alot of anxiety and she was just tested for cancer (came back ok). Great. Thats what i really need to hear.. thanks mum. :rolleyes:

Home day here too.. have a load of washing on and another to do. Keira's asleep and Jess is eating his breaky. House still pretty clean from last weeks inspection so just going to have a lazy one.

BBL.

Hi guys :grouphug:

Welcome Sweetpea, I'm a ring in too with this group. :hug:

Kel - I've been having so much coffee lately - its incredible.. lol....I get panic attacks too..:rolleyes:

Had a shocker on Sunday night - DD kept waking up was so unsettled - think we had 2 hours sleep all night - then had to go to work yesterday!!!! Had to pick her up early too cos she had a temp and was generally miserable. She didn't go to sleep until 6.30 last night (had been awake since noon!!) and then woke up at 8.00 - so we gave her another feed, she fell asleep - and then woke briefly at 1.30, resettled and woke at 6am!! So not sure what was going on Sunday night - we could hear her little belly going nuts and she was farting a lot... so maybe the homeopathic drugs had started to weaken... got a new lot yesterday so fingers crossed she will be back to her old self. She does have a cold though - developed a cough with it too.

Hello to everyone else - I should go play with my boy since DD is asleep. I know he wants to go out and play with the puppy dogs, so should probably entertain him since he is still getting over his pneumonia.

I'll be back later.. hopefully...

Oh - and no rolling here either...

Kristy: Good morning! If you have a tornado behind you now whats it going to be like when the twims are mobile?? I have a tornado too...he's still sleeping though!

Pix: Yum.....I want some cake! Hope Bear brings you back a pressie!

Kell: We are here for you hun, hopefully its just the caffeine and you can cut down. I used to be a real coffee junkie until Jayden was born, since then I have only had 2 cups but I drink coke/pepsi. YAY on your lazy day!

Mel: Poor Mehkelti! Hope the new drugs fixes her up. Funny how we function (even if its barely) off little sleep hey. Ash woke up at 3am for a feed this morning which is unlike her, I'm thinking just a growth spurt although her last feed was 10pm which is a lot earlier than normal.

Well I feel very lucky ATM, although Ash was awake at 3am and woke again at 6.30am for another feed she is back to sleep now and Jayden hasn't woken up yet and its nearly 9am! He has had some pretty late nights lately (Sat night nearly midnight!). So I am showered, dressed(for home not if I have to go out) and had my breakfast. I should go put a load of washing on....I'll be back later

Good morning!
Loads of chatting in here. WOW!

Hey, Sweetpea! Welcome to the group. Gorgeous name your DD has. My DS2 loves to stand while holding our fingers.

Feeb - How's everything going? How's that cute boy of yours doing?

Tan - YAY! the kiddies are sleeping and you get time for yourself. woohoo! Thanks for the PM about the KK. I'm sorry I won't be able to be in it. I feel so so bad. :(

Kell - I hope cutting down the caffine helps with your anxiety. Fingers crossed it's nothing serious. :hug:

Pixie - I'm glad you enjoyed the pampering. That's great. Poor Bear having a tough time feeding Beth. Yeah, MIL is a PITA! I was glad to see the back of them. :dance:

Missy - I hope everything is ok with Liam. Your christmas photos on FB are so goregous!!

Zee - I didn't know you were from Young. I've heard of it. I've never been there. Unlucky Luke didn't win Idol. He did so well and improved so much throughout the comp. Your new photos on FB was awesome. Laila looks so so grownup. So sweet!! I hope you get the bleeding checked out.

Mez - I hope Izzy gets better soon. The day/nights must be wearing you out heaps. You're doing a fantastic job!!! :hug:

Kristy - Did you get Issac's eyes tested? Everything go alright? How cute the twins talking to each other. My twin sister and I used to do that, then when we got older we kinda had convos in our sleep.

Mel - :pray: DD is back to her usual self in no time. Did you get DD's head checked out? I hope everything is going fine.

Bear - Have a safe trip!!

SW - Not long now until the big move. Are you excited? nervous?

Tasia - How're you doing? How's your little man? Have you guys started trying again? (Tenny being nosey again. I'm sorry. )

Re: Rolling - We're still only half way over with the rolling deal. He likes to just roll on his side so he can see everything better I think. He's not liking tummy time anymore either
I was holding him up sitting yesterday and he thought that was so awesome. Laughing and smiling and looking at DS1. He thought he was great and realised he could se everything way better.

Had a rough night last night with DS1. He has a cold but wouldn't have any dimetapp last night, so I let him go to bed without it. BIG MISTAKE. He was awake on and off all night and whinging over the silliest things. Calling out to me to pick his pillow up, even though he could reach it himself... just things like that. So that woke DP up too, and Hayden got woken a few times aswell, but luckily went back to sleep.
He'll probably fall asleep this arvo sometime and ruin tonights sleeping too. :rolleyes:

Lately Bubbablue has been right into staring at us eating. He makes this noise too. It's not so much whinging noises but this other noise. He even stares when we just have a drink, like he watches it go to our mouth and back down. I think he'll go alright foodwise. We're thinking of starting him soon too.

What are you all getting your kid(lets) for christmas? I'm having the hardest time with ideas and DP isn't helping any. :wall:

:hello: to anyone I've accidently missed.
Sorry it's a long one. I rambled heapsss.

xx

Tenny: Don't feel bad at all hun! I hope DS1 gets better soon too, poor boy! Ashlea is getting mainly clothes from us, a tinkerbell canvas for her room and a 2008 xmas bear. Jayden is getting heaps of clothes, wiggles guitar and accordian, mcqueen & ramone cars (matchbox size), matchbox size semi trailer and we are building a big sandpit in the next couple of weeks (hopefully).

I never would have thought I'd have so much trouble thinking of things to buy my own kidlets. Lol. I'm thinking of some kinda outdoor sport stuff or something like that for Elijah.
Good luck with the building of the sandpit.

Tenny - don't feel bad - buying a kid a present isn't a prerequisite for being our friend!!

Re: Xmas presents for our kids - none, zero, ziltch. Yup. Mean house this one.

I think our amp is dying - the music on tv is loud and the words spoken are really soft

Damn DS is trashing a DVD.. so frustrating - i'm stuck on the couch feeding her and he is trashing it and complaining that he wants to watch it :wall: He knows how to change the dvds and put it on, but prefers to sit there holding it and whinging about it *sigh*

I need patience today. Been sneezing my head off - and nothing makes me more cranky than that!!!

hello...

well it seems i have been cleaning all day and getting nowere. its all those little things that keep annoying me.

Tannis- i can imagine, i recon it would kinda be like one of those mega storms where 3 tornados collide and destroy everything in their path. that is the reason we have been making a play room out of a double gerage out the back. so they can go wild.

kell- you know i am here for you mate. your such a great mum. hopefully it will pass soon, We can hang out and chat whenever you need to, my door is always open.
looking forward to tomorrow i know the boys and keira will have a great time. I think cutting back on caffine might be an idea too. we both probably should.

Mel- oh isaac does that to DVD's too its so frustrating. he rips off the covers. hehe ike can also work our DVD player he just doesn't know how to switch from TV to DVD so he gets sound thru the sterio but no picture so than he chucks a wobbly. toddlers Grrr

Pixie- i hope you don't miss bear too much. how long is he going for? enjoy you coffee and cake too. yummo. i think i need to make some more.

if you need to feed you kiddies extra veggies i have been makind Carrot / zuchini and saltana or date etc muffins Isaac LOVES them for a snack and Im just happy he is getting a litle more veg.
It's: 2 cups SR flour- 2/3 cup caster sugar- 1ts cinnamon- 2 med grated carrots- 1 large grated zuchini- 1/2 cup saltana or chopped dates or both- mix all together in a bowl...mix 100g melted butter -2 eggs- 1/2 cup milk together... lightly mix dry and wet together put in minni muffin pans cook 180-200deg app 15-20 mins. its yummy and at least its healther than a choc chip or something.

Tennykins- oh hope DS1 is better soon. yep i learnt the hard way to force dimetap if they dont want it. at least they and you get a better nights sleep. tho now he is older isaac likes all that stuff he thinks dimadon is a treat.

and ree christmas gifts- the boys are getting a swing set (from my mum) and santa is bringing little toys. isaac= trucks, music stuff, cars, play doh, wiggles games, toy gardening stuff etc and the twins= walkers a sit in one and also a push along one, clothes, baby music toys, sand pit stuff, baby swings for the swing set. isaac has most toddler stuff so the twins are getting more necessity stuff this year they already have isaacs old toys that are still all good.

better get back to work.
BBL
xoxoxox

OMG you all talk so much....lol

Just had friends over for morning tea/lunch and it was lovely. I let Callum have the day off day care so he could meet their kids. I had 6 kids all up and it was nice. House got trashed but cleaned it up and its back to norm. Both kiddies are asleep so going to read my book some more.

Welcome Sweetpea, Reaghan stats are great. I was in yoru thread too much to slow plus these are the girls from my belly thread. Welcome hun.

Hi to the rest.

Thanks all about the comments on my photos on FB. I think there great.

Kell and Kristy I cant make it tomorrow but you girls have fun.

Ok off for now

Oh I cant wait till xmas.

missy- thats cool no prob hon.

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

Hi all

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!
:hello: sw, tan, tenny, feeb, missy, kristy (you're a baking dynamo woman!) and everyone sleep well!

morning...

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.:tmi:growing too Fast my last babies need to stay newborns longer.

god i neeeeeeeeeeed a coffee. have a great day all...

xoxoxox

:bluecheer: HAPPY 5 MONTHS CALEB!!! HAPPY 5 MONTHS SEBASTIAN!!! :bluecheer:
Wow Kristy that seems to have gone so fast!

:confetti::loveshower::loveshower:Happy 5 months CALEB and SEBASTIAN:loveshower::loveshower::confetti:

Happy 5 months Caleb & Sebastian!!!!!!!

Its going way too fast hey Kristy - soon they'll all be toddlers - nooooo!!!!!

Pixie - have fun on your walk!!!!!

got toddler climbing over me - makes it very hard to type.. surprisingly.. lol

wants Dora - unsurprisingly....

DH has the flu - the real flu - influenza - so he has popped into work today to get stuff done that he has to - doc has given him 3 days off work.

arghh toddler is SURFING on my legs... ouch!!!!!

BBL

:partysmiley:HAPPY 5 MTHS CALEB & SEBASTIAN!!!:partysmiley:

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.

hey all again

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:doh:

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:rolleyes:


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.

Bye for now

HAPPY 5 MONTHS Sebastian and Caleb!!!

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!!

Morning lovelies....

:hooray:HAPPY 5 MONTHS CALEB & SEBASTIAN :hooray:

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 :dunno:

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:doh:

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:wall: 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.

Hope your having a good day

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. :rolleyes:

Finally my whingy little man is sleeping. :dance:
He's been fighting sleep ever since he woke up this morning. Hopefully he'll sleep for most the afternoon too. :pray:

:hello: Tan, Tasia, Belle, Sweetpea, Feeb, and everyone else.

Hi all,

Thankyou for the warm welcome, I have been reading but have not had time to reply to everyone seperatly.

It is nice to see everyones bubs doing realy well.

Reaghan has had two off nights in a row where she has woken between 3-4 and taken an hour to feed and settle again. Hopefully it is just a phase and she gets back to sleeping threw for me.

On the Chirstmas present front, I have not brought alot, as my two older ones go to thier dad this year. So they have some clothes and pj, knitting sets each both into that. Beados for my 5 yr old. And dig a dinasour for my 8 yr old. Reaghan is getting the girls old toys form when they were young as I still have then so going to give them a clean and wrap them up. (cheap scape me).

Dh and I a getting concrete slab done for our pergola or each other for xmas.

Hope everyones week is going well.

Hi all,

We had santa pics done on monday you can see it on facebook!! Jacob refused to sit as he wanted to stand in jump instead Lol!!! He has always loved standing on for about 8 weeks can push himself to standing while holding our fingers!

we have been pretty good, having a rather trying few hrs in evenings when he just screams hipitched!!!

Kristy good luck with pics!! HAPPY 5 MONTHS BOYS!

MEZ woo hoo on dh last trip!! mine has possibly 3 more trips to go 2 sydney 1 maybe hong kong.

misy well done on housework i neeed to do a heap!!

sw active 1 u have

sweetpea glad u feel welcome hun!!!

hello to everyone else!!!

Missy: Hope you finally got your ironing done....I haven't touched my iron since I was working I think, I hate ironing! It hasn't rained here yet so its probably time I got the clothes off the line, on the radar it showed that it went just past Bundy so I don't think we'll get any at all.

SW: Glad its you and not me with a mover haha

Mez: YAY for Isabel being so good for her needles, I thought they weren't meant to get them if they had a cold though?? I could be wrong though.

Sweetpea: Ashlea has woken at 3-4 the last 2 mornings too although she has fed and fallen asleep within 20-30mins...wonder if its a growth spurt??

Ashlea had a bit of a temp last night (37.6) so I was thinking she is just waking cause of a cold or something. I gave her dymadon but she spat most of it out.
I better go settle Ash, she just woke up but is still really tired.

Hey folks .... had a nice walk this morning! Bit overcast so nice and cool but it didn't rain. Then went to the shops to buy a nappy bag and some new pj's for little miss. Agreed to go to a pump class on monday with some of the MG girls so that will be a bit :o cause I haven't done a pump class before.....
Missy my bro and his g/f were in town for a little while they live in mission beach qld and also in canada - they have a house in each place, so I don't see them that much.
Zee no worries hon, when you have a chance! meant to say that the Bear's best friend is from Young so we have been there a few times to visit him at his Mum's place... we had Christmas in July there this year.
Mez the Bear is only away till Friday bummer about your DH going to Vietnam so soon, but yay that its the last trip of the year!
SW - OMG I can't believe Alyssa's on the move already! Beth hasn't quite worked out how to get around but you can see she is frustrated over it!
Tan = Beth did that a couple of times in a row and then went back to sleeping through so not sure if she wasn't well or just having a growth spurt :dunno:
Anyway guess I'd better go do something useful :rolleyes: while DD is asleep!
:hello: to Mel, sweetpea, feeb and everyone else

Ooh I forgot to mention, my LC called me yesterday and left a msg to say she wanted to talk to me about something. I called her back and she has asked (again) if I would speak with her ante-natal class about breast feeding! I said no last time but then felt bad so this time I said yes! I am so nervous though I hate talking in big groups, hopefully its a small group and she said they will ask me questions and I just have to answer them which will be easier.

Pix: woohoo on the pump class!

I better go do something too, Chris will be home in 40mins and both kids are asleep.

Tenny/Zee/Tannis.. no i usually treat it when it comes up.. that way it doesnt get too bad and is easy treated and gone. Hers is gone from that one application of sorbelene last night. I just lather it on and leave it for a few hours. Then washed it off with the J&J Top To Toe (use whatever you wash their hair with) and kinda gently scrubbed (while shampoo was in) with a face washer.. washed it off.. then just towel dried it and its all gone. Same worked for Jesse. His was a little worse and i think i had to do it twice but works a treat.

Ok gotta shower the boy, we're running a bit behind today.. BBL

hey all..

Thanks ree the twins being 5 months. its just gone too fast.

Tannis- you will do fine, you won't need to do a speach i wouldn't think maybe just talk about your experiences and let them ask questions, as you said.

santa pics went great. Isaac did well, wasn't exactly thrilled but we got a smile at least. i'll post it up.
