July 2009 Moms

Sumayad, Hope you can move in this weekend finally,

Claire, I am dead already without it. I tried to put the plug on but I cant get the new one open I dont have the tools We manage fine but I dont know how she does it I want to go and buy me new clothes so badly, but I will only be wasting money. My stuff dont fit at my boobs area they fall out of my bra's and low cut warm tops. I let them fall out but cover up with a jacket and make sure I dont take it off

I want yoga pants but cant seem to get them anywhere

Hi,

How is everyone? Seems I never get time to pop in anymore. I am getting so huge and have no warm clothes...will have to go get some!

Glad to hear Bekah is better...Colby is still coughing from his cold. I think it's just a post nasal drip though and will clear up when his nose does.

Lizel, I would have died by now without coffee! Think you should put the plug on to teach hubby a lesson...or better, take it to him and ask him to teach you how to do it. He'll get it done so fast! I can't believe your MIL has been on pension so long! How do you guys manage!

GL with the move, Sumayad. You sound super organised.

As for the screaming...I think I am the softest mother on earth. Colby gets away with murder. He wakes at night for his bottle. I've tried not giving in but usually do. If he screams, I jump. He sucks his dummy all day (so don't worry, Kiara) Yest, I was visiting my sis and her LG who is 2 months younger than C. She is so well behaved. Even stands in the corner when she's naughty! That's when I realised...I don't have a baby anymore and my son is turning into a brat. So from today, I'm ignoring the screaming. No more giving in. It's been a loooooooong day!

Vision, it will be really nice to be at Bekah's party, and yes clear water is not far at all for me.

I will hopefully be moving in this coming weekend. We've unpacked most of our goodies, I just need to take our clothes then we settled.

I've also decided that I'm going to be strict with Zia, the reason for me giving into him is because we living at my moms and I feel guilty when he cries and screams at night. He needs to learn to fall asleep by himself, without a bottle, umph

Vision, nope she does not work she is 60 and on pension. She have been on pension for the last 20 or so years. She stoped working cause DH father could not work anymore. She said if he can stay home she can 2. That was the worst move every. I must go to the garage for coffee every morning not fun

I give in alot of the time cause the crying just gets to much or I feel sorry for her. But she needs to learn and that can be hard.

Cinds I am doing a ladybug theme this year - what have you got planned. J's party last year was so awesome with the princesses!

Lizel and Sumayad - thanks for your addresses I will send the invites when they are ready.

Sumayad - does Z still drink alot at night? Sorry that he is so unsettled! Do you have a date when you will be able to move in your new house? I am glad the #5 nappy is working. YAY will be so nice to have you guys at R's party and at least you know what area I am in since you know where clearwater is I couldnt believe it was you when I saw you there that day

Zelri LOL at your MIL in law being a cash cow. Why does she need money all the time - doesnt she work? Tell your DH it is freezing and your NEED coffee!!!!! I drink so much tea and coffee in winter cause it is freezing!!!!

Binks are you excited about DH's return

Cinds Bekah is the same she doesnt throw herself on the floor but boy can that girl scream - LOL I can just imagine you have a stern talk with her. I think we have to have lots of resolve at the moment to teach them that when mommy talks they must listen. it so easy just to give them what they want to stop the crying...

Sumayad, Yes that is so true, and everything is wet it is so much clothes to change. I use 2 nappies Pampers Premium @ night Zelri's bum looks huge but I dont care. She pee through 1 like acid at night. And I tried every nappy there is.

Cinds, lol at the chat you had with J re the tantrums....did she listen?

Lizel, and with the night bottle comes leaking nappies, last night I had to get up twice to change Z to make sure the nappy is not too full. I yet have to get a nappy that does not leak. I started using the nappies that I had as my baby shower cake, these are pampers size 5. And there is def a difference in those pampers and the ones they make now.
