July 2009 Moms

Deja, jy lyk nie soos n olifant nie! Wel ek eet soos een dis verseker

Skitter, love the pic jou maagie lyk al so mooi myne lyk of ek n vet poep of iets het
I am also having heartburn already, and that is bad cause I drank Gaviscon like water and it did not help.


Vision, that woman it nuts. She went to hospital yesterday saying she is bleeding and when the guy got there the dr said everything is fine there is no bleeding. And last night she phoned again saying she is bleeding and going to hospital Crazy woman. I hate it when people look at us when we are trying to teach Zelri.

It is nice to know they all have tantrums somedays it feels like it is only my child that does strange and nauthy stuff. I have to try harder cause I am a softy if I cant take it anymore I start crying with her. Hubby told me to be stronger so I am trying so far not really working

Nadia, I dont know if I can do the sleep training I am thinking about getting that lady she comes and do it for you. You sleep and she looks after them and learn them how to sleep.

Lonie. Hope A is ok and her tummy get better soon. Zelri also push those buttons I ignore them I was there first so I can take my time even if Zelri jamed the transaction I also think I am the problem cause if hubby takes her at night she is so good bu with me she want her shoes, the dogs etc

Hi there..
Sorry for being MIA, was at home yesterday and also today..The creche was closed yesterday due to "hemelvaart dag" and also luckily we stayed at home, cause Amber's tummy was very bad..was going ok during the day but last night was terrible.....&*(# and nappies everywhere.. This morning we went to the Dr, so we got some smecta sachets, and no stool since this morning..looks like its working..taste is not that good, so have to force feed her.. (EVIL mom strikes again.!)

Skitter, the calendar looks very nice..and the bump is lovely..!

Lizel & Deja, ag nooit! Dit lyk of julle n klein ertjie ingesluk het. Daar is niks vet nerens nie..

Regarding the tantrums, must say Amber's been good, but trying to be very strict with her (or so I feel) but when we went to horse riding the other day, I took her off the horse after she moaned (I mean I am not forcing her to do anything!) and the lady told me she is throwing a tantrum and manipulating me..GMPF! The first lessons Amber just loved..then they decided to try and gallop (WTF!) and now she is totally put off..whe have to go slowly to win her back.. (well according to me)!!
Marib, I suppose they are manipulating us, we just dont want to see it..I am also doing sleep training at the moment, its hard but sure its best for the long run..! Amber knows if she cries in her bed, I will pick her up, sing, dance do whatever..she's got me jumping, and her screaming power is stronger than my heart..so trying my best! Amber falls asleep at the creche no problems, so the problem is with me...

Nadia..regarding the boosting..send me your email adress then I will discuss with you in more detail..

Vision, love the blog..looks very nice! We have the same shopping problems..Amber even pressed buttons on the credit card machine once and buggered the whole payment..Everyone in the long cue after me was staring with their irritated faces

Lol Pat on the winkies..hee hee...

Elrike, baie geluk met die seuntjie.. dit is great nuus!!

Anyways..before this becomes too long..!

Hello again...

Skitter thanks so much for the calendar! Are you able to email it to us? Lovely bump!! Have a good time in Abu Dhabi...

Marib...it is not always easy! I also have the kiddycalm bath salts...used it about 3 weeks now...i just use it for the bubbles and the colour tho!

Vision... I feel you on the tantrums!! L is the king of them too... he cries and shouts!I usually pick him up and squeeze him tight for a while and then move on... or i let hubby deal with it if i feel I am losing my cool...

Deja well done on Nienke sleeping in her own room!! Yay!

Lizel...good luck with the sleep training...i can imagine that you would like Zelri to be sleeping well before baby no 2 comes...

Sorry if I did not mention anybody, only went back two pages...lazy I know!

Just a quick update on us. Yesterday was super busy as it was hubby's bday and he had loads of people over, at least it went well and not too late

Micheala is good, just busy and its getting harder and harder to keep her entertained in the house. She was so cute and bought me the washing this morning to the washing room

Little boy bean is also good, having heartburn but not too bad, kicking up a storm and I love watching him kick. Doing to the doc again on monday. Backache is bad though.

Going to Abu Dhabi tomorrow and staying over, want to start browsing for cots and baby stuff.....Never seem to see anything I like. And hopefully to get the kids visas as they will be coming over in July. First flight for them alone

Other than that, not much more to report. Hope you are all well and that everyone manages to get some decent sleep this weekend

Vision, it is on the way! Thank you for the compliment...I took it and intentionally did not photoshop out the stretch marks (the other photos I did). Happy 23months Bekah! Dont know it is only me, but when I try open you blog tab it says it doesnt exist?

On the sleep issue....M goes to bed at ten at night. I make her bottle and tell her to come, she grabs her dad and whatever teddy and makes a mad dash for her room After saying night to dad and reading bible with me I walk out, switch off all the lights (she has the stars glowing on her roof) and lock the door. At first I felt really bad about locking the door and sat in front of it listening if she is ok....but she has taken to it nicely. She does sometimes get up and try and come out, but gives up after a few min of crying, climbs into bed and sleep. About an hour later I go check on her and open the door and put on the doorway light. She then wakes up anything between 12 and 3 to come and sleep with us and have her second bottle. No mayor tantrums or problems so far and it has been quite a few months, we stick to doing that in the daytime nap too.

Lizel, I agree, you are super tiny! But happy to hear you and baby are well. That lady sounds a bit weird....

Deja, congrats on her sleeping in her own room! Cute bump, but you are also tiny! Dont know why you always complain about being fat,lol

Mari, glad you had a better night, hope Migs does not have ear infection though

Nadia, I agree, I love being needed sometimes I will be giving birth here

Baby_jap, good luck with the job, hope they can give you an answer soon. Why do you want to start working again if I may ask?

Pat I can only laugh! You made my day! Where is that bump pic?

Elrike congrats on the baby boy!

Justine, hope everything works out for your sister

Marijke congrats on the exams!

Binks, enjoy hubby tomorrow!!!!!
