August-September 2010 Moms

Hey ladies

Shew the thread goes quiet for days and then suddenly loads of posts!

B2B so glad A is doing so well The crawling when they start is too sweet. Its amazing how quick they gain confidence too.
I wouldnt say A is 'underweight' cos K is smaller hehe (She weighs around 7.4 now and was 69cm 3 weeks ago.
But he should be following the same line on his growth chart.
You can give him double cream greek style yogurt mixed with pureed fruit. Also laughing cow full cream cheese spread - mixed into his veggies or grated cheddar as well, you can make a cheese or white sauce and mix it with his dinner. These are the ideas our clinic sister gave me. Also for in between snacks things like banana / fruit / yogurt all help. Tuna & sardines are great as well!

Cols sounds interesting! Dark secret sounds like its quite serious.
How long have you been married? Did u get a response?
Thx for the well wishes. I start tomorrow

PM I agree with Kerry regarding Iz's crawling. Its not something we can help them with except for allowing them time on the floor. They have to figure it out, and you'll see one day she'll suddenly have it. The average for crawling is between 8-10 months so you dont have to stress.
How is Iz's nose / cold today? Dose her up on homeopathic immune boosters & try get a multi vit. The demazine is really great to use. I hope she will feel better soon and praying for her speedy recovery!
So sorry to hear about the tragedy thats once again happened in your family! They say these things happen in 3's so may this be the last!
Good luck finishing those favours. I feel very bad for you that you get roped into these things all the time.
And sorry that your mothers day was not great. I would so not be impressed! All I got was coffee & cereal in bed but for me that was more than enough as it really is the thought of it that counts.

What did everyone get up to for mothers day?
We went out with the family, first my mom, my brothers girlfriend's mom (first time they met), his gf, DH & I for breakfast, and then to DH's family for lunch. K fell asleep on the way home, and then I put her in the bed and I lay down and napped with her for an hour. Perfect day!

Lol Kerry I know the feeling with the crawling! Steps - yikes!
Apparently they can climb up stairs easily but cant judge height with going down and so dont master this skill for a while.
Kaylee has discovered our garage and if we go out to get something from the car when we come back shes standing against the garage door waiting for us.

Cols so glad Evan is doing better already! Sounds like everything went smoothly for him!

Sher yea a few of us with baba's starting with K.
Its Kaelyn (Kerry A) and Kaylee (me) and your LG
Her nick will prob be KB (surname starts with or Kay, but our boy will be named Kai so could become confusing

Well I start my first day of work tomorrow morning at 8am!
I have been truely blessed to have so much time with K till now. I've been at home for as long as what I was pregnant, its unbelievable how quickly it has gone!
Today was nice Kaylee was so loveable and gave me lots of cuddles, but it was also busy, spent a few hours in the shops and she went to sleep before 7pm so didnt feel long enough.
I am busy getting everything ready for tomorrow so that I dont have much to do in the morning. Gonna be weird waking up at 6:15!!! I have been getting up between 7 & 8 for the last 9 months!
And thanks to M2M our new nanny is just around the corner so will save lots of time and fuel by dropping her off for the day. I cant wait to see how Liam & Kaylee play together

Anyway I better go, still lots to do and already 10pm. Gonna be a late one! (edited that its now 10:40 and had to settle Kaylee so ja a really late one!)

Hi ladies...

LONG LONG TIME (AGAIN!!!! - SORRY)

How is everyone?? tried to catch up from the last time i posted, but in a bit of a hurry...

all is going good with me and Armand. He is crawling so nicely now!! started on his 9mnths.. it is so cute!! 8 toofies now!!

Sleeping is going better, but still wakes at 3am...

went for 9mnths injects last week. he did not even cry! mommy's big boy!! he is under weight!! the sister says that i should give him some fatty food (cheese spread ect.) and protein, but i do give him protein. He is not allowed to drink more than 750ml's in 24hr, and after 1 year only 500ml's, he must rather eat more food. he weights now 7.92kg and is 72cm long. other than that, she is very happy.

ok, hubby is going to be at home soon (meetings) so i'm going to say good bey!! will chat again soon and do some personals!!

xx
sleep tight!

PM - You are a great mommy and dont you forget that! Evan also balls when he's on his tummy now. He goes from sitting to tummy, back to tummy etc and then does beached penguine moves, spins around, goes backwards and cries and moans the whole time. He knows there is more to this crawling thing, he just hasnt got it yet. You do, do everything for everyone else all the time. I think you get loaded with stuff because everyone knows you have a good heart and will not say no and because the know they can always rely on you...Just look at how fantastic your girls are growing up and how much dedication must it take for your daughter to be a SA Champ!

Girly, thinking of you today! I know it will be hard but you will see it will get easier. Some days are better than others. Besides the days will probably fly by while you are learning all the ins and outs of your new role!

Kerry - your LO is motoring hey! Shew, my nerves get shot with Evan in a walking ring - he gets into everything! I can only imagine the chaos when he starts crawling! Oh I love your bunny pic - just voted.

I just sent a long email to someone I have been holding a grudge against since my wedding - yes I know it's a long time. It was a big grudge and now I have set it free. It is no longer a dark secret and I have finally had my say

Oops! Thanks Janine!

Kerry, your link just goes back to the main page - here is the correct one ladies

Shame pink! I wish i could help you! I would pop over and bead finished for you if you were closer...

as for little one, don't stress you are not a bad mommy you are there for her more than those of us who have to work... its just a small trade off! You are an excellent mommy and Iz's crawling has nothing to do with how much or little time you spend with her, its something she has to figure out on her own.

and one more thing... it may be a little late but i am sure everyone here will join me in a HUUUGE

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!!!!!
Just for Pink and anyone else who got left by the roadside!

XOXOXOXO
