Topic: July 06 Toddlers Posted: 29 May 2007 at 12:52pm |
Ella and Caitlin are now what I would call "Toddlers" as they are both walking unassisted
Can't wait for their 1st b'day parties

we are going to do carebears i think. was making the party list and we have about 20 kids/babies coming! not sure what i will do for wee loot bags though. Do you aim it at Addisons age so maybe give a wee toy of some sort but then that doesnt really sound very exciting for the older kids that are coming say between 3-5yrs old but then its Addisons party so should she and her we friends get something they can play with rather than big kids toys and lollies!

My mum has made us loot bags, I am going to put some chocolate fish in them and a couple of jelly lollies.
As for the cake, I had a trial run of the making a few weeks ago....it was alittle dry but was still eaten by all. I suppose it will be dry as it is an allergy free cake! (sucky) But have no idea how to decorate it. we are going with a fish theme so will make the shape of a fish but that is all I know at this stage.
Then decorations, i am hiring a helium tank and will do about 30 - 40 balloons and that is it.
I just don't have an imagination!

I'm such a total "no imagination/tight @ss" we're not doing goodey bags because most of the kidlets will be the same as as Caitlin, and I'm not happy with my girl having lollies and I guess the bags would be pretty stink if they had dried fruit in them
We're keeping it low key this year and then going all out next year when she knows whats going on

Caitlin loves Dora and points and jumps around at anything that vaguely resembles her

I don't think Tyrell has any real liking towards anything. He does sit and listen to The Wiggles for about 5 seconds but that is it.
is that wrong?

Ooooh can you send me a pic of your taggie blankets.
We have 1 we got off Tm and it is Tyrell's cuddly! Thinking we need a back up plan for when in wash or forgotten etc.

Guess I'd better get my head around a cake for her birthday .. be the least I can do really, unless of course we decide to go to Wanganui for it (all rellies live there) .. but would rather stay home, cos it's our place, you know?

Yeah thanks G&T Emma gave me 3 options. I have tried 1, was thinking of trying another this weekend. Maybe I didn't follow the recipe properly, might give it another go. Not much of a cooker so it is all trial and error.

Just before you invest a lot of money in it Jess, you might want to be aware that there is already an international patent on Taggies:

Caitlin still has her cold (been 2 weeks now) I ended up taking her to the GP on Friday as she woke up sobbing uncontrollabley (sp?) and it really freaked me out because it's so out of character for her. After about 1/2 hour of that I called DH home to take us to the Dr, she seemed to be in pain, that kinda cry.
We couldn't see our normal lovely GP instead we saw the RUDEST MAN EVER posing to be a GP
Asking me dumb questions like "do you think she got a fright?" F$#K YOU! I know when there's something wrong with my baby! Anyways, after much coaxing he checked her out all over, no high temp, no infections anywhere from the cold and as soon as he saw she's had pooping issues he just looks at me like I have the IQ of a snail and goes "Mother, have you checked her nappy?"
 *inserts lots of swear words*
Anyways, she was better after we got home but I was really upset and so was DH that we were treated like dumb asses when we were panicking about our child's health.
I'm glad he's not my normal Dr!
My LOVELY normal GP called later in the day because she saw on Caitlin's notes we had come in, she was very sorry we were treated so badly and told to keep a close eye on her because Caitlin might need antibiotics
Sorry for the huge whingy post!

I'm so sorry to hear you had such a horrible experience with that other doctor Toni - you'd be well within your rights to put in a complaint about him. Lovely that your normal GP rang to check up on things though, hopefully she will be able to sort out what the problem is and get Caitlin fixed up.

AW Toni that sucks. I hope Caitlin is feeling better soon!
We had to see a Dr that wasn't our normal and were rushed out the door like you would not believe.
Tyrell now has a cold. He is on antibiotics for his ears and throat and still managed to wake up yesterday full of it.
I just feel so sorry for them when they are not well. I just feel so helpless. (tyrell ended up in bed with me the last 2 nights as I just couldn't get him to settle)
