June 2007 Mummies!

Yah finally say Haleighs picture up

Had a rough couple of nights. After Ella night sleeping getting slowly better after me patting her to sleep, earlier in the week she decided to start waking every 2-3 hrs again. On Thurs night after she woke at 9,12 and then at 3 I decided that enough was enough and decided to try letting her CIO it out and see what would happen (I ended up camping out on the floor of her room, so that at least I was just there to make sure she was alright)...finally got back to sleep after 1 15 mins of crying off and on. Fri night did the same thing and she went back to sleep after 20 mins, only to be woken 10 mins later by the stupids neighbours dogs barking. Then she woke 3 hrs later and had to repeat the same process again......it has been a longgggg couple of nights. Last night she was slightly better- I heard her cry out at 11, but she went back to sleep until 1.30 and then cried until 2 and went back to sleep and woke up at 6.30.....so quite a big improvement over earlier in the week. DH looked after her for this morning, so I could catch up on my sleep. Have had to go back to 3 day sleeps for the last couple of days, because she has been really tired because she has being awake more during the night......lets hope we get this sorted soon. 

Hey Jess aww that is such a gorgeous pic of Lucas, sad about Frank hopefully he turns up.

Man my little treasures still isn't here I can't wait to see wee Lily.

Hey mumtoElla Caprece has been the same with her sleeping, I don't know whats going on. She wakes between 4-5 I feed her and then she grizzles until 7 when I get her up and she needs to go straight back down to bed. She has even been refusing to have a day sleep unless I feed her to sleep too. I hope she gets over this soon because between her and Jack being sick I've heardly had any sleep.

We don't have our mag yet either

Um have you started giving him anything new? Is he still on his meds? Start writing down what hes eating and see if its after he has anything and take him to the doctor.

Hmm thanks for that Kylie I might go email them now.

Daniel isn't phased at all by daylight savings either!

He's been a little bugger with eating again though. It seems once a month he has to make it difficult by not opening his mouth even if he is hungry.

His crawling has really improved though, he's using his legs more but definitely is a commando crawler.

Paige had her first day at daycare today and she had a great time. I struggled a little but not as much as I thought.

I hope Frank turns up. Unfortunately, part of the reason I wasn't so bad today with Paige going to daycare was because one of our cats is really unwell and I thought we would have to put him down but the vet is looking after him for a couple of days doing some extra tests (was sick 6 weeks ago and recovered but is obviously back) and see if he improves.

Paige is contantly pulling herself to standing now and is a speed crawler. She is so fast into things she knows she isn't supposed to, especially the cat biscuits

Well, I am starting work on Wednesday so looking forward to that but trying to get my brain to kick into gear. I am going to be shattered by the end of the week though!

As to eating, Paige is like her dad, eats most things. Other than when she was sick she hasn't refused food, she even pulls faces if she doesn't like something but still opens her mouth for more.

Thanks for the good luck wishes Jess, we should be getting a call from the vets this morning to see how he is.

And as to winter, we get our first delivery of wood today!!!! Yah, ready for when it hits.

Oh, and while I have time I should look at the photo gallery and upload some pics. I don't think I have been there for a couple of weeks, maybe up to a month!!!! Oops

Shell, I hope your cat is ok :( And Jess, that is so strange that Frank is no tback yet. Good idea about flyers, he could be locked in somewhere or like you say, a nice old lady might have thought he was a stray or something.

Monique, i have no idea about the reflux stuff. Is there anything on that cryingoverspiltmilk.co.nz site?

Hey guys, lots to catch up on. Have read all the posts but can't remember who is doing what. So hope the cat comes home and that the other cat is feeling better soon. We have lots of fur babies and they really are a big part of the family. Good luck with going back to work, i'm sure your brain will kick in once you are there. And yay Haleigh for winning.

Spencer has been eating better recently, not sure what his little episode was all about but am glad that it is over. He isn't very well at the moment, DH had a cold last week and I thought me and Spencer had escaped gettinng it but no I have been ill since Saturday and late last night Spencer woke up crying cos his nose was blocked and today he sounds awful, but is still full of beans Suppose to be at jumping beans today but am gonna keep him home, think he needs to have some quiet time. Don't think the other mums would appreciate me taking a sick bubba along either.

Spencer has just started moving forward in a commando crawl type way but he doesn't get very far on the carpet cos it's such hard work for him. Have put him on the tiles a few times but he doesn't move anywhere cos they are too slippery. (is quite funny to watch though). He has a bit of a fascination with the TV cabinet at the moment, he has started pulling on the doors but luckily he is pulling the handle down at the moment rather than out so it doesn't open. We have just moved the computer out of the lounge as well as I had visions of him grabbing the cables and pulling the laptop down on himself. He is getting really good at standing now and only needs a little support either from my fingers or by holding on to a bit of furniture. Perhaps he will walk before he crawls properly?

I'm sure he's looking like a stray by now! He's a full Persian so needs brushing ALL the time. Poor Frank
