Bronze!

We Cleo had in total 7 pups! And we got our little redhead who looks just like his daddy!

Off to Melbourne today for a bit of shopping then catching train to Kyneton DP last day at work so I have to pick him up.

Sorry Rach! We have been chugging along here, all with colds and a little miserable. Adjusting to my DH being back at work is a little harder than I anticipated, but trying to give myself some time. I know it will get easier, but it better well hurry up! How is scrabble?

Lisa - what will you do with all those cute puppies?

Hope - Sam sounds very similar, he likes to sleep in his bouncer during the day and his cot at night.
I found BF got a lot easier as B got older, once we got through a rough patch here and there it was a dream. But it can be difficult sometimes don't you think.

Kath - I haven't seen that one, is it British? The only thing we have been watching is ABCkids. It does my head in sometimes!

I can't remember anything else. I couldn't even remember Sam's name in a conversation the other day! So that is my best effort at a post.

Paddy.

Good morning chickens
PADS that was a magnificent post, thankyou so much . How long has DH been back at work? Are you okay? Remember I'm just a short (LOL) drive up the road if you want to chat . How is Sam going in the night? I am finding breastfeeding okay attachment and comfort wise, but it is a big tie isn't it? Now I am limited to 2 hours at the pokies too bad if I'm on a roll lol!!
LISA how cute about the puppies, that would be lovely for the kids to see. Have a great day shopping! And good luck to DP with his new job. Whennaya coming to meet Ed?
KATH can't remember what you wrote and can't be bothered to click on the old thing at the moment as I have people coming and need to clean madly but HELLO! And more power to you with the exercise; I am trying to get back into it and keep telling myself that when I hit the 6 weeks (post caesar) I"ll get back to the gym... hmmm... wonder if I will!!
Everyone else HELLO and hope you are all going well xxx me.

Well I don't want to get in trouble from a rampaging Rach so here I am, reporting for duty

On phone so short and sweet sorry, I am supposed to be studying and not be on EB at all

DH is ok, slowly getting better, thank god be isn't a 'man-flu' guy! He has been back at work for 3 days now and I reckon he is looking forward to the weekend! I am offloading the feral one to her grandparents and taking DH out on a date tomorrow night, I deserve a night out and I don't mind DH so he can tag along The final verdict from the hosp. was viral pneumonia but I'm pretty sure that meant they had no idea and he was looking better so they kicked him out coz they needed the bed.

Have been reading bit will try to post more

Hi All

Yes Rach I was thinking the same thing and was about tocome in and do a post cos I felt bad!!! You must have read my mind. Glad all going well for you . how are you finding the closer age gap, easier, more difficult??!!

TPM : Thanks for your text last week. i keep meaning to relpy but keep geting side tracked. Yes be good to meet up. Will text next week and finalise a day time etc..


Kalita : Have a great night tonight!

Paddy : Having 2 kids close in age is hard bloody work. Give yourself a big pat on the back. I dream of the next time I can have a good nights sleep. Rian now back to twice a night feeds. Must start solids now he is getting closer to 6 months.

HFTF : I find BF harder the more kids I have, for supply and time to feed once they get to around 4 months and are so distractable. Hard to feed them then when you have a toddler, and all the baby wants to do is look around at the toddler instead of feeding!!! so frustrating - but cute at the same time!!

Lisa : Congrats on the pups

WL :Cant wait to hear the details !!

Us : House coming along. Roof tiles going on now, so another 6 weeks really. All pretty straight forward so far with some hold ups with bad weather. Kids all good.Ds 6th birthday next week, cant beieve I have a six year old - where did that time go! DD1 really getting girly now and dressing up like a fairy etc.. with jewels etc, so Aisling wants to do the same of course, so had too princesses at 8am this morning! Rian is super handsome if I do say so myself. He is so beautiful, maybe not at 3am though!! He is the darkest of all of ours, he has black hair, lovely long lashes and really dark eyes, and pale irish skin. He is super long and already over 8 kilos.

My SIL will more than likely be induced next week as the fluid around the baby is greatly diminished. It really doesnt look good . I cant bear to think about it. Everytime I am feeding rian , especiallybefore bed I am very upset and crying as I cant believe what they may have to face. Sorry Kalita as i know this is very close to home and I its so unfair that anyone has to go through anything like this.

Rach : The baby has very poor renal function. She has had millions of scans and see what they think is the outline of the left kidney, there is a bladder. The MRI showed no kidneys, so all the professors are scratching their heads really and this is why they are saying they really dont know till baby is born what we/they are facing. They pretty much have outruled potters seqence but to me if the MRI doesnt show kidneys I dont hold out much hope at all really TBH. My poor parents are in bits and my dad is in TOTAL denial.

Anyway, too depressing........

love
Blessed
