Good morning ladies.
Sabrina I am sorry you've been having such bad nights with Finn. I hope last night was better?
Did your DH try to wriggle out of taking care of F cause of manflu? (I know you said it is what you had but men always have it soooo much worse and hence manflu! lol)
Borboleta congratulations again on your anniversary! Such a cute family pic on FB
My OH and I aren't married but we met for the first time in January 10 years ago. But I met him online in a London based chatroom (not a dating site) and we chatted online for 6 months before we actually met in person.
As for Tarantino movies, maybe I am a child too but for me they are too violent... and odd lol (Though oddly enough I don't mind the violence in Game of Thrones.
) I don't think that the violence would affect T as yet but I am always worried that the flashing images might be bad for them? I don't let the boys watch tv at all. Except the very slightly animated nursery songs that OH downloaded for them onto the external hard-drive of our tv. We also have Lenka's Everything at Once and Little Boxes by Malvina Reynolds on that cause they love those songs. Sebastian I think is in love with Lenka as he gets up really close to the screen and stares when she is on lol Very cute lol.
Good idea with the Gerber Puffs!
I hope he comes to associate the stroller with treats rather than with crying and gets over this phase.
As for T losing his paci during the night, our boys did this too of course which is why we now put about 6 or 7 in the cot and distribute them on all sides so that they will always find one within reach no matter where they moved during the night. Works great, except that Sebastian likes to throw some of them over the sides in the morning or give them to Dominic through the adjoining cot bars lol
kosh thank you, I am slightly reassured that G cried like that too as this probably then means all babies do it at one time or another and I didn't do everything wrong with my Dominic
Jules my OH is into video games too. He plays both on his phone and his xbox and is not at all ashamed of it either. lol I don't really mind, some of the games he plays are really great to look at for their graphics, such as Assassins Creed for example. But yeah he plays BioShock too and that
is kinda disturbing as a game. I myself play(ed) Zelda on the DS Lite and one on the Wii. Or the freakishly annoyingly addictive Candy Crush on FB
lol Yep I am a nerd and so is OH lol
I am sure your baby won't look like Shrek! That is another advantage of a csection, babies don't get so squished and look much smoother
And yes we can hear the noise of the football games.
The cheering and chanting gets on my nerves sooo much lol. Of all the sports football is my very least favourite! When I moved to this flat 20 years ago, Fulham was third division and the stadium quite a bit smaller, hence not so many ppl during match days and not so often either I think. But of course since then it has come up rather. Thanks Mr Al-Fayed
But it is the only downside to my area. It is so utterly lovely here by the river and the park that even if we manage to save enough money for a bigger place, we will try our utmost to find something here in the Bishops Park area.
As for not sleeping at the end of pregnancy, yeah I remember that one. But for me it was cause I was so uncomfy and everything hurt. Do try and rest up as much as you can during the day you poor thing!
As for your DH getting pissy cause he had to help,
!
As for us: Nothing much new here, except that today we are going to level 3 gymboree for the first time
Looking forward to it and hopefully it will help their cruising.
The boys have started sleeping over an hour for their morning naps and the difference is seriously noticeable. Dominic wakes from it with a smile rather than a whine. The afternoon nap is still only 30 mins even though Dominic obviously wakes still tired from it he will not sleep longer
I haven't braved putting them in their cots for it yet btw
So reluctant to have to go the CIO route again.
Oh and a milk question for all: We have no switched to 1 year + toddler milk as I am not sure that I want to give just normal milk as yet. This milk has a lot of vitamins etc and I find that reassuring. But on the "tin" it says to give two bottles of 150ml a day only. My boys are on 3 bottles at 180ml a day and I am really not sure which bottle to cut out. So far they have one when they wake up, one at 3pm and one before bed time. Do you think I absolutely have to cut one out or should I just continue as is?
Hm I think this is all.
Oh and what an absolutely AWESOME episode last night's Game of Thrones was! Best one yet!
Got to go give breakfast. Hope you are all well
