Number 4

Don’t Forget

April 14, 2011

‘Never say never’ is usually my motto, so I won’t say never ever but I will say probably. Noey is probably, almost certainly, just about definitely, my last baby. Once upon a while ago there was a little niggling thought about five, but things have changed. While that niggling thought hasn’t quite gone away (it [...]

My Baby Eats Meat.

February 17, 2011

This post is sponsored by Nuffnang When the opportunity to do a sponsored post for Meat and Livestock Australia came up I was initially hesitant. I don’t want my blog to become one big advertorial, so I am picky about what campaigns I accept and which I pass on. But recent events have made this [...]

Sleep, What Little There is.

February 14, 2011

“People who say they sleep like a baby usually don’t have one.” ~Leo J. Burke I used to have a that baby. The one those people were talking about. A baby who slept for seven hours when he was 4 weeks old. A baby who slept so well overnight I would wake up desperate to [...]

Little Manipulator

September 30, 2010

“He’s got your wrapped around his little finger….” “Don’t go to him the second he cries out… he’s just playing games and manipulating you.” I ponder her words as I leave what I am doing to respond to his cry. Is he just crying to get my attention? Am I wrapped around his little finger? [...]

Wandering Wednesday – Memory Lane

September 8, 2010

We wandered down memory lane this morning. Choosing from the drawer, baby clothes handed down from a wonderful friend. Skipping out to the shed to find the baby gym that was made for Muski. Digging under the bed to find the baby toys that were given to, made for and loved by all the big [...]

September 3, 2010

We are still fighting the evil beast that is reflux, and despite having done this all before (and in stereo) when the girls were little, it’s surprising how quickly I forgot the basics. So in case you ever find yourself with a spewy baby here are ten things I know (or have suddenly remembered) about [...]

Nicked Names.

September 2, 2010

We called the baby ‘Number 4′ before he was born. Then he became known as ‘Quatro’ while the world waited for us to decide on a ‘real name’, but now that he has one, he is rarely if ever actually called Noah! We call him “No No” or “Noey” and even “Nobody”. Some times he [...]
