April 2011 babies

Rainbow hopefully with all that feeding he will sleep til 7am for you

Cody figured out he had hands tonight while having his bottle, he was going cross eyed trying to look at it then he popped his other hand up and the look on his face was like wow I have another haha it was so f**ken funny and seeing the second hand he almost got a fright LOL haha would love to hear on what our little bubbas think

So off to chch tomorrow all packed apart from toilet bag... We have to be out the house and at the airport by 9.30am so have to be organised!!! Hope you have a lovely weekend and 'see' you all on Sunday avro

If she is sleeping well then I reckon she is getting enough.

I hope you are right re the 7am Leahsmummy! I am doubtful though as it felt like although he fed lots, he only fed for short periods of time...time will tell!

Hope ChCh goes well for you.

Yay Leahsmummy, you were right. He did sleep til 7am! I thought he wouldn't given the overtiredness from hardly any sleep yesterday! Hoping today isn't as crazy.

Great Job Caden

Hope the insurance people are generous Jade!

Wow what a storm last night!! Rhys woke just after one of the major claps of thunder, I gave him a quick literally 2 min feed and put him back down, So he kinda did 7.45pm - 7am again like the night before (After him mamoth 260ml bottle!!) haha. Mabey I can start going to bed a little later now.... Dont want to jinx it tho. Hes finaly down for his nap, think he had a bit of wind and then hadent quite finished his feed as he was getting a bit fussy. So offered him more then put him down. (morning sleep alway in the bassinett) Its been quite for a while..... Still doing day sleeps in pram, Ill usully get approx 2 hours for the afternoon one.

My car has been sold and they are picking it up today Naughty me, I have 2 cars, that one had the high insurance etc so will be nice to have the extra money.

Im taking MIL to the airport today, she is going to the UK for 6 weeks, she is going to miss Rhys so much. He will have changes lots in that time.

Hope everyone has a good day:)

What was your decision on Oz? Not sure if I missed that or if you are still undecided? Good news that insurance will cover the damage to the bathroom!

8pmm - 7am from caden again... yay

Jeez PB, never thought about what I would do about heating a bottle if we had no power. Would have to get her on the boob .

Weather is pretty hideous aye. My poor in laws had their property trashed by the tornado in Waikanae on Sat. They have a section of huge pines at the front of their property and they were knocked over. And up the back their olive grove and Macrocarpas have gone too. Thankfully the house in the between the trees only had superficial damage.

Sat and Sun poor Rosa was very miserable. She was very unsettled and woke twice in the night on Sat night. On Sun she was clearly in pain and we thought it was wind or sore tummy but then I had a shower with her and she was grabbing her ears. So off to the doc and sure enough she has an ear infection. The first dose of pamol and antibiotics put the smile back on her face and she is certainly coming right now.

Not much other news here.

Great to hear you have cover for your bathroom damage Jade. Bathroom renos are just what you need with a young baby huh! Blimmin houses. We have twice the trouble as we live in my mum's house while she is overseas and rent out our house to tenants. Our house isn't too much trouble (touch wood) but mum's house often has annoying little dramas. In saying that, DH had to go change a light bulb at our rental not long ago as the tenants munted the fitting trying to 'unscrew' a bayonet bulb .

I think we are having the whole 12wk growth spurt, Levi has been feeding all bloody day and my boobs are soooo sore :(
My best friend and her hubby live in the States, he is a christian rapper, anyways his cousin died on the weekend in a car accident when her car slipped on ice and went into an ambulance :( Its his mums neice and brother, he is in critical condition, she died at the scene. To add insult to injury his Mum was in the states visiting and was meant to be there for a month but due to this will leave early to get back for the funeral. Its so hard being so far away from them when things like this happen :( so sad when lives are cut so short she was only just 18 :(
I cant wait for Levi to start sleeping a little longer, but guess theres nothing I can do to extend him, I have tried formula, got him in a good day time routine (apart from today when all he wants to do is feed) and am swaddling, giving him a pacifier, white noise and a cuski- no more ideas, will just have to be patient! His brother was a shocking sleeper and didnt sleep through until 10months, so even solids didn't make a difference with him. I guess I was hopeful that Levi would be a bit better as he doesnt have reflux and he started off a kilo heavier than his brother, but it really isn't making that much difference!!

Man its freezing huh? thankfully we got some more fire wood delivered yesterday, must keep fire crancking!
Jackson is sick with a cough and cold, sucks cos he has been real clingy, at least it meant he had a big sleep today. Just hope the rest of us dont get it as we have only just got over colds!
