July 2009 Moms

Hi julle wel ek bly in die Limpopo Warmbad en Mika is my eersteling en is nou 11 maande oud. [img]http://www.moomie.co.za./media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/Mika_PS4.jpg[/img]

Lonie, except for one person asking if I had a photo, no one else actually noticed - strange family that.

Jana, I really don't know how much they should be drinking, I let B decided (dictate) how much she wants.

So for Marilu and Jana - B constantly had something to eat in front of her. When it's meal times I put whatever we have or are eating in front of her and if she doesn't eat a lot then she doesn't get more or something else. Sometimes I will try giving her a yoghurt if she didn't eat a lot, but sometimes she gets a yoghurt even if she ate a lot.

She eats (for example) 3/4 of a weetbix for breakfast, if she doesn't finish it then she doesn't get anything else. Full stop. She always has otees laying around her playroom which she discovers and she has about two marie biscuits per day (which she eats in sessions) and about 5 flings per day.

Breakfast at 10, lunch at 2 and dinner at 6. At around 9 months I saw a major increase in the amount that she eats (feeds herself)

She has a bottle at 7am which she drinks on and off till 9am (nap 9am - 10am), she gets one at 11am which she drinks till 1pm (nap 1pm - 3pm) then she gets one at 3pm which she keeps till 7pm and I top up if she had a lot for her bottle before bed (175ml bottles) and there is always some left of every one.

I'd say don't start digging yourself a hole - decide what will be for breakfast/lunch and dinner and thats it, they are still young enough to make up what they missed with milk but don't start baby controlling meal times or else you will be the mommy on supernanny making 6 different dinners and a screamer at the table!

Morning ladies

Long time since I was on Moomie.

Zelri is doing great she is really starting to get cute.

Vision, those photo's of the holiday looks so nice. It's a beautiful place.

Deja, N is al groot en pragtig

Skitter, M hou mooi stil as jy foto's neem van haar eerste tand. Zelri het gister met my vingers gespeel en toe ek weer voel byt sy die crap uit my uit.

Charlene, Happy b-day Ange!!!!!

So Saterday we were on our way to Makro and hubby took a short cut road that has alot of rocks, and stuff. Zelri had a bottle a hour before that and the next moment so brought all that milk up on me and herself. Everything was full of that sour milk smell except hubby. Even my panties were wet from that sour milk. I was so PO with hubby.

How many kids are you inviting to your babies party?

Good morning..
Vision, so nice that Bekah had a good night sleep, I also dont know what I would do without the baby monitor.. So cute that she gets jealous!!
Skitter, daai fodies is super cute, ek en A gaan elke Vrydag na die swemklas toe maar dit is n aaklige klas tot sy kan dryf..dan begin die lekker swem eers..
Deja, sjoe nice dat jy al 3Kg verloor het, voor N se eerste verjaarsdag gaan jy stunning lyk! Ook baie nice foto wat jy opgesit het, sy is pragtig!
Marilu, jammer M het nie lekker geslaap in Hermanus nie, hopelik gaan dit vanaand beter!
A het gisteraand en Saterdagaand opgegooi dit is net so na die aand bottel, en wonder of dit van die inspuitings was..deur die dag is sy fine?? Sy het ook glad nie eetlus gehad nie...
Welkom Chantel!
Marijke, bly julle het lekker gekuier, het hulle toe iets gese dat julle vir B by die huis gelos het? Jy is gelukkig dat sy so maklik by haarself aan die slaap raak!
Babyjap, sjoe 5 teeth already! I also startd brushing A teeth, what a mission!
Good morning to all the other ladies, Cinds, Sumaya, Justine, Adele..wonder how its going with Lizel ??

Ahhh sweet man Babyjap he sounds like such a cutie. You must post some updated pics for us!
Wow his teeth are coming out fast!

Morning ladies...

How are you all?

Deja how did the 'cake decorating' shopping go?
I simply love the bakerella site...loads of yummy stuff on there and i made some of the things.
Also gave me some great ideas.

Charlene how was Ange's party?? and very big happy birthday to her!!!

remember about 2 weeks ago i said ive been giving Qadeer calsuba in his milk and since then his teeth came out fast, he has FIVE teeth now 3 at the bottom and 2 on top. He is so busy and obsessed with clapping hands and brushing teeth. he gets up in his sleep and claps his hands then goes to sleep again. And he 'brushes' all his teddy bears teeth.
and dont let there be a washing basket with clothes nearby...he pulls the clothes out and drags it across the room.
