Oct/Nov 2008 mommies!

Hi ladies - yes DH is getting paid a weeks salary per year worked but he only worked there for a year and 5 months - so he is only getting a weeks pay, and then some leave payouts etc, don't know how much everything will be, but doubt that it will be enough, we'll see! That is also the reason why he is one of the employees retrenched - last in, first out!!!!!!!!

Ara - E sounds so cute! Glad he is better today!

yes ladies Amu is coming with and I am taking his nanny and my sister with as well.

I cant believe it still really.

Ally congrats on your blog stats, all the best

All other ladies wil catch up bit by bit, sorry for not commenting

Hi Girls

Lwasi congrats on the USA move and I'm glad that you are taking Amu with

Vix and Julz look after yourself. Vix I hope that C will find something to keep him busy.

Angie, ain't your hubby getting any monies from the company? He should get at least a week for every year that he worked. Hope everything work out for you! Don't think that you are a bad mom, E still drinks bottle. He don't want to drink out of a glass anymore!! Don't know why, but I just up everything in his bottle and he and mommy are very happy!!

Ally congrats that is great!!

Ankie William is heavy!! E weighs now 13.8kg, but his is a tall boy 94cm. Wanted to ask what kind of job you are doing.


Yoza congrats on Buhle walking, they sounds very sweet. Still wanted to ask where are you going to stay in Knysna for you holiday. We are also heading that way and will travel to PE first and stay for 2night in Knysna or Plet.

Lisha I'm glad that Shrey is better.

Zee how's the morning sickness!

Jess the girls have really spoiled you! You look like me when I was pregnant. My sister called me a whale!!

Angelique I hope you find a good instructor and I also don't want to learn in heavy traffic. Always feel sorry for learner drivers.

Helen hows the kids doing I love the pic on FB from Nina.

Pfairy, that is a great opportunity that you have to go to Aus. I had it once, but I would not have survived without my family, but if something like that a rise now I will grab it with both hands.

Lelani hi

Hello Nelria

Nicole can't your DH take you for extra lesson and as the others say, you will start learning once you have your license.
AFM: E was sick since Monday, he went to school but the nanny phoned me to tell me that he is sick. He is much better this morning, didn't give him any meds last night and we had a good night. The previous nights we only slept for about 4hrs. Because he was not so well, his tummy was also a bit upset. He farted and hubby says to me, that don't sound like a normal fart. I said well have a look in his nappy- which he did, but E got so upset. He shouted at us saying - "Moenie kyk nie, los my. My boude!! We burst out laughing, he is right it is his bums not ours!!

As for potty training, well not much to say except that we are having accidents all through the house. This morning however I took E's nappy off and say lets go pee. He refused, but I told him that the potty is there if he want to go. He loves to play with the basin taps and as normally he was playing there while mommy gets dressed. He came to me saying "mommy E pee-tee" I thought he needs help, but then he says -pointing to the potty- da mamma da. He wee'd in the potty!!

I just gave him a big kiss and told him that he is doing very well!!

Thanks my friends! I don't know what I will do without your support!!!!!!!!

Julz - sorry about your bad night of no sleep! Really hope you feel better soon!!!

Vix - enjoy your nap! I can certainly also do with one right now! I struggle to sleep the last few weeks - when my head hits the pillow, its as if my mind starts going and I can't seem to relax and forget about everything going on! I am looking really terrible the last few days - dark circles under my eyes and all...

Lwasi - so happy for you on US! You are doing so good providing for your son! Proud of you mommy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


lisha glad Shrey is feeling better!!!!!!! CJ is also a bit snotty since Tuesday - and getting meds in is a absolute nightmare - so we started giving it to him in his milk and yoghurt, and he keeps it in this way luckily!!!

Julz- thanks friend, I can always rely on you for good advice, I have changed over to a pad and will see how it goes, I was thinking to phone my gynae about the bleeding but then I'm not sure if it's normal because I've never had a D&C before. I see my gynae also only used one sticth for my little wound so now I'm being extra careful after your story of popping the stitch. Dylan and C could have peeing contests, C also finds anything remotely potty like to pee in, he has peed into the doll's potty from standing far too many times. These boys!!!! I like your sticker idea, I should print off a chart and buy some stickers, about time C learnt to be a good boy. I was bribing him to potty train with sweets but that didn't work because he doesn't like sweets so much LOL

Lisha- I was also wondering because of the BF I only got my period back @ 9w post birth so maybe because it's 9w worth of lining to come out? Well I am going to take it easy today and see. How is Shrey doing learning the shapes you were teaching him?

O.K I'm going for a nap whilst all the kiddies are down. Chat soon

Xxxx
