Oct/Nov 2008 mommies!

Hi all,

Nelria is fine, actually looking very good! I've just come back from visiting her, i think she has just been very busy with family but I'm sure she'll log in in a bit.

Xen is now at that alert stage and he is so gorgeous! ahhh man what a stunning little boy and he is so well behaved!!!

C was driving me nuts getting into absolutely everything at Nelrias house, drove me mad! eventually he started putting his wellies on telling me he wants to go home so me and Nelria had to quickly finish up so i could leave, men are terrible even from an early age!

o.k i got all sorts to do so will get back to you all in a bit.

Erin has been aiming to her mouth with a spoon - may I just say EXCEPT for breakfast - otherwise we'll all wear it. I just saw the other day about someone who's child was eating with a fork and spoon and I thought we were behind. You forget all these things with your firsts (and some for seconds). Can't wait till next year - hoping to have a nappy-less house - yay!!!

Wow I'm amazed at how many of you are expecting I'm still trying to work everyone out so excuse me for being a bit DOH!

Busy making a snickersbar cheesecake - its 70g of fat PER SLICE - luckily its not for me. Phew.....

Have just done the paperwork for Charlene and Renee to go to school next year. C in Grade 1 and R in Grade R. My babies are growing up so quick!!!!

Hi Leigh

Yes Ethan eats with a fork by himself, but I also feed him while we eat. With the nanny he never eats by himself!! She is too afraid that he will starve lol. He also want a proper plate...

Julz, I'm also thinking of Supernanny where the kid got out for 3 hours!!! The first time you say, No it's dudu time now, second time you say Dudu time, from the third time you just put them back in bed without saying anything and follow through with that. It's the same as sleep training really. And I don't know if that would work for Dylan but about an hour before we put the twins down we start asking them if they're ready to dudus and then we keep mentioning their big beds and that they are now big kids etc. Really praising them the next morning if they've slept well etc. But that's just what works for us.

I say nuttin.....my lips are zipped.

But look how well its working for Ally. It works for some but not for others. I guess beforehand you have to kinda weigh up the options really. Our kids have NEVER slept in our bed, so coming down the hallway and sleeping in our bed isn't normal to them.

The ONLY advice I have to you is to keep putting him back in his bed when he gets up. One program by a lady of the name of Tanya (cant remember her surname, british woman) - she had the parents doing it, one night up to 60 times, but it eventually worked.

DH says our boomerang is staying in the COT!!! DH reckons there's more chance of her climbing up the burglar bars than out the cot.

Are your 20 month kiddies eating by themselves yet - with fork or spoon?

Good Morning Ladies

Just a quick pop-in to say hello

Seems like you are all getting lucky these days lol.

PFairy I will also fit into your bag, PLEASE TAKE ME WITH!!

Angie I will keep your SIL in my prayers.

AFM, just very busy and with our SLOW internet is difficult to post. We are doing fine dh has gastro now i'm just so scared that Ethan will also get it!! We also try to get him to sleep in his bed, but when he wakes he cries for mommy! Ladies when will the tantrums stop!! And everything is mama, I was actually happy to come to work this morning! When I leave for work he want to have the boobie, but I refuse and then he started to cry!! Naughty little boy!!

Will pop in later again!!
Nicole don't stress everything will be fine. E was also a sweet boy and yes we have a little terror at hand

Julz that is a nice compliment, everybody always says E has a nice smile, but like my sister says "They don't know about the movie the that plays at home - tantrums"

Zee sorry about the "Kreef"(mountain) , it will go away!

Hi ladies a quick pop in.

Nicole don't stress!!!

Zee hope you feel better.

Lisha wow that is fabulous.

Okay as for the big bed - what a disaster. Leigh don't you dare say anything or I am sending my boomerang who must be German engineered over to you.

I am clueless as to what to do with him right now.


Chat later ladies. x
