August-September 2010 Moms

Relaxing with my sissie after some serious playtime at the beach!

Proof that under that scary face indeed hides a little angel!

Exhibit A

Hi all,

Hope you having a wonderfull holiday.

I have come to the conclusion that my baby is a clown! She caught on to the whole camera thing and I am sad to say, but I don't think I'll get a decent photo out of her very soon!

Hope everyone is having a wonderfully chocolatey Easter weekend!

Dakota's 3rd toofy came thru - not her top incisor, but her top canine!! ( ) oh well...

I'm going to be doing a Bootcamp in May (06h00 every day, Mon-Fri during the whole month!!) What am I thinking?????
(at least it's before I go back to work so I can have a quick nap afterwards!)
Will do all my measurements before I start and will be on a strict(ish) diet for the month as well to see how it goes (and to see if I want to continue when I go back to work)

Well, winter is DEFINITELY on it's way!!!! It has been so chilly now - put Dakotas panel heater on the timer again so her room stays nice and warm as she tends to wander around her cot during the night and leaves her blankets behind her!)

And she loves her walking ring - she zooms around the house in it and of course can now reach things higher up (!)

Anyway, have a great week everyone

Well what do you know....I did not fall off the face of the earth!

I so miss all of you guys, but life is just a runaway train at the moment running 2 households.

Our girls is officially part of Team SA 2011 and will compete in the Worl Championships 2012 in Los AngeleS. Meaning mommy needs to get sponsors worth R70 000. That on it's own is goong to be a fulltime job. Because we have 20 girls. Rather not do the math!

My mom is doing ok. Still very sore and lying down all day. I got another job description added to the list...nurse! Running the 2 households is kinda hectic. Cooking for the masses also not the easiest. But we will srvive.

Iz is attached to my hip! Hates everyone around her and is extremely irritable and niggly. Think she's cutting some toofies. Being in Rustenburg has set her development back some. And now with my mom, there's just not enough hours in the day! And little missy refuses to be on the floor at my mom's. I go to my mom's house after I drop the girls at school till after we had supper, which is kind off a problem!

BabyKsmom, where u at the beach?

I will really try do personals bit later. When I'm on my laptop. If I know how to operate that thing by the time I have time for it again!

Wow guys sorry just soo busy at work this week... am planning to take next week off, so i have to get all my work done early this month

Janine - Excellent photos he is so adorable i love his eyes! and Congrats on making the tooth list!

Cols - I was a grommit case when i was little and i also used to throw up on most long car trips so i am sure all it was was a little motion sickness.... and i bet the smell in the car didn't help things along much?

Charnenay... well to be honest it isn't too fair to compare K as she has two boobie feeds a day and two bottle feeds, but while she can hold the bottle and quite well to boot she doesn't want to do it (not to mention i don't think i am ready for her to be sooo independant yet) So i only let her hold the bottle when she actively takes it away from me funny thing is she likes holding the boobie LOL

Cols - try giving evan his own spoon to play with while you are feeding him... that seemed to work when K went through the not wanting to eat stage. you could also try spreading his purity on soft toast and giving him that.

K goes to bed at 7 - 7:30ish, then sleeps till a dummy run at 2ish and then sleeps through till 5 when i have to feed her to take her to MIL. Well thats the normal routine when she isnt having a bad night. But since the sleep training on sunday night we have had peaceful nights... so i think it was just that she knew if she cried mommy would come. pick her up and cuddle her back to sleep. Now when i go to the crib in the morning i see she has moved around in it so she probably is still waking just she is putting herself back to sleep.

anyhow i had better get back to work now so i can have tomorrow off. Hubby and i have plans to drop K at the MIL and go back to bed tomorrow...
