July 2009 Moms

yippee colby, fnny how we always want them to crawl and walk and all those milestones things, but i cannot say how many times i have wished i can just swaddle him up in his blanket again and put him in the cot and just sit down on my own...
i am finding from ange's age, she nearly 3, i can now put a movie on for her and sleep while she is watching, she doesnt move while watching, and also with the age its now starts getting easier... eats on own (with big mess ofcourse) but is way more independant... just the way i like it...

thsi boy of mine is shouting at me, im waiting for the floor to dry so i can move on that side and wash this side of the floor and he is stationed in his high chair but wants off, and he is actually shouting ahhh ahhhh at me... audacity!!!!

Sjoe 11,2 Kg, your arms must be breaking.. Amber is now 7,5 Kg's and almost 8 months old..

Colby is finally crawling properly...so I am now running! He is so cute! Had him weighed and he is now 11.2 kgs! I was quite surprised. I thought he might be 12 but I guess their weight gain slows down now because he is exactly on the graph so he is a healthy little boy.

Sorry for anyone I missed. My brain can't retain everything I read here!

Good morning mommies!

Adele, I'm so glad to hear T is ok. Shame you must have been so stressed! I read your experience to my DH and he was so shocked! He said he would have killed that neighbor! Thank goodness your baby is ok.

Charlene - I agree 100% with that teacher! It's good to hear it from someone who sees you with your kids though. Hope you figure out what's up with J.

Skitter - how do you find time to chat so much? Fellow SAHM 2 SAHM! I think you must be so organised!

Morning Mashudu! Thanks for the shout out!

Marilu, I think it would be a good idea to move her to a different crèche. I think it's hard enough having to leave them in the morning, they shouldn't be screaming when you do. She'll adjust quickly. Can't you look for a day mother?

Charlene you are amazing and a GREAT mom - glad you listened to the teacher and that you feel a bit better! You are so patient combing all that glue out

still waiting on test results, i am probably the most impatient person ever! if i want it now i want it now, i hate waiting...
the wind in cape town is so hectic toay, just vacummed the tiles and now they are full of dust and grass again, will have to clean and keep the doors closed. argh!!!

gotta take jolene wee in to pathcare now now, 24 hours of collected wee, you have never seen me gag so many times, ewwww!!!
oh and shouldve seen me struggle to get the glue out her hair, still all not out but that which was on the hair is outish and that on scalp is stuck so will cum loose with time, sat with a fine tooth comb last night combing piece for piece, she loved it!!!

we got our vhs working, so now ange watches all jolene's old barbie movies barbie nutcracker, barbie rapunzel, barbie swanlake, barbie dancing princesses, barbie mermadia, fairytopia, all those and she thinks she is in heaven... even watched the lion king last night, i love the lion king, i love singing with all the songs. awesome!!!
im sure im still a kid...

i felt really goo yesterday when i picked ange up from school, the lady in the baby class asked me how its going with jolene and stood and spoke to her for long (now thats a class you want your baby in, nella is amazing)and she told me that it is no way that its lack of attention or anything, she says she has seen me in checkers with the kids and here at the creche with the kids and if children "kloek" around their mother and are so attached to their mom, there is no way they are attention deprived, made me feel so good, cause thats when i realised i really am doing a good job with my kids, yes times get rough sometimes, but if i was as horrid as what i think i am, then the kids wouldnt love me as much as they do!!!!!!!!!!!!!
felt good!!!

Love the saying Lonie!!!
