K - She's stopped having a bottle. She still asks for it every so often so I give her water or cows milk in a glass - she now shares a glass of milk with her doll before brushing her teeth and going to bed every night. Yeah I can remember all those "help me JU" articles
It was about this time (5pm) two years ago that I was at the hospital hooked up to the monitors and being told I wasn't in labour (my contractions which were about 4minutes apart had completely stopped once the monitor was hooked up) and that I should go home (40minute drive) but before I went they decided to do an internal exam. Too their disbelief they fo
Hey Joey 5months wow - rolling over already that's really something - Elana was late with everything physical - she still is she learnt to climb the stairs two days ago and is now doing it constantly and also two days ago she decided it was time to feed herself without my help so I loaded the spoon and she put it in her mouth. I think she's realised that since she's 2 next week she has a bit of catching up to do Isn't it great to be a mummy <img src="http://images.stardock.com/JU/smile

Obviously you guys don't have Thanksgiving, but do you have a similar holiday? No. We have Australia Day on January 26 which is like your 4th of July it's Australia's Birthday. We have Anzac Day (April 25) and each state has two of it's own holidays eg Qlds has Labour Day on the first monday in May an
In my life, certain names seem to re-emerge again and again; Robert, Kathy, Tracy to name a few. But Debbie, though the name constantly recurs in my life with new introductions, was one of a kind. My dad is Robert, mum is Kathy and my little sister is Debbie - so that's weird <img src="http://images.sta
Oh Elana was walking down the hall with one over her shoulder earlier "cya cya cya bye cya bye" And PB - that's a great idea about keeping some in the car but we don't have one
yeah but PB the plastic bags are good as garbage bags which is what we use them for. Rose - thankyou I got totally motivated today and almost completed the lounge/dining and kitchen. But I haven't gone near the play room or either of the bedrooms. SPC NS - thankyou yes where could I get a bag... I'm so over moving and we don't even have the keys yet. And I'm not looking forward to Elana's first night at the new house. We've
We're moving on Saturday. We signed the lease yesterday and were supposed to pick up the keys this morning but we didn't. The movers are coming between 10 and 12 on Saturday and I've hardly packed a thing. Because as I was looking around trying to decide where do I begin it occured to me half this stuff isn't suitable for boxes and hence the magic of woolworths/
My mother-in-law was the same she tried on all monikers Nana Val, Nonna, Granny (I veetoed that for the same reason you did) Grandma and finally after almost 2years she settled on Gran. My mother (Nana) and mother in law (Gran) were both 44 when my daughter was born in December 2003. Everyone but my mother refused to decide what they wanted to be called saying he/she will call me what they want but they never seemed to get that children
That's my theme song
This song came out when I did graduate highschool and it was played in my last IFC class. At the time you think yeah we'll all be friends forever and we'll keep in touch and nothing will change. But then you leave school and you go to uni and you start jobs and you meet people and you get married and you start a family and you hear this song and you think I still talk to two people from that time and am only really good friends with one of them.<
We're MOVING!!!!!!!!!! and I do know where - our application was approved this afternoon - Hooray!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Two of my favourite blogs are adoption blogs. One is a lesbian woman who has 4 teenage foster/adoption daughters and twin babies that the adoption has just come through for her on and will come through in 6 weeks for her partner. The other is a single (straight) 27yo woman who is foster adopting a broken 9yo girl. All these children were born of heterosexual parents and all of them have been abused - sexually, physically, emotionally. Th
arh yes the incy-wincy/itsy-bitsy spider debate I have no idea who's correct both my husband and I were born in and grew up in Australia and he says itsy-bitsy and I say incy wincy
I feel like I've been neglecting Elana. Wednesday I woke up with a really sore throat and a runny nose and constant sneezing - I thought I had hayfever so I took a clarantyne but it did nothing, Nick said go to the doctor I knew better and didn't. Wednesday night we both got NO sleep because I was so stuffed up and congested and just plain gross sick
I also like Phoebe, Ethan, Elijah, Eden, Eloise, Elliott and Noah I don't like K names. (E,N,K,P ) Noah & Elana Elana & Patrick Elana & Elliott Phoebe & Elana Elana & Eloise Elana & Eden
The more I think about it the more I like Patrick Partridge. Patrick (I'm stuck, George, Kim, James, Jesse, Peter, Andrew, Randall, Charles, Joseph) Patrick Joseph Partridge and Eliza Kim Partridge (E-ly-za)
These photos's are bad for me Jo. Jayna is adorable. She looks like she's got mischief on her mind though.
Sussy - I do that blue first, then orange, yellow, green, red and finally brown. Shades - Cheerios are half the size of "hotdogs" - frankfurters - way back in the day butchers used the give them to kids for free when their parents/grandparents were buying meat. They dond't give them to you any more for heath reasons and most people cook their cheerios instead of eating them raw nowadays.
It was also reported that Kate (not Katie) has fired her publicist of 9years and hired Tom's (his sister)
I absolutely agree.
I shouldn't even comment. I've read #1 The Bible and #46 Lord of the Flies by William Golding But I've seen a few of the movies. Colour Purple Moll Flanders Huckeburry Finn Tom Sawyer Oliver Twist And I've read all of Lousia May Alcott's Little Women series (Little Women, Good Wives, Little Men, Jo's Boys) books and 2 Jane Austen Emma and Pride & Predjudice and my favourite book ever was Charlotte's Web. My highschool reading books were cla
Elana had her first bowl of "Cheerios" (the cereal not the sausages) this morning she ate the with her fingers it was messy but I allowed it (it was hard not to control her and I did fail at times and spoon feed her in between) But I tried giving her dry cheerios to see what she'd do (all american books/blogs with children have them eating cheerios)
Thats awesome Joey. Elana's seen 3 dogs 2 cats and some birds (crows magpies rainbow lorrikeets) in her life
