My little fatty :0)

Time flies past so fast these days, its hard to find the time to blog...
Zayne is growing so big so fast, I havent had him weighed for 2 weeks, but back then he was 12lb 9oz, I am hoping to make it to the clinic on friday.. I was going today but nothing I planned for today got done due to the fact that I slept in :( oops..
He has still not settled in well at all, still feeding every 3 hours which is making life difficult, he has started sleeping a little better during the night, but has now decided that he wont nap during the day... LOL I just cant win..
We ended up having to put him in the cot already because he was almost touching either end of the bassinet, I think he was feeling a little trapped in there coz he filled it so much. I also tried him on a bottle of formula this afternoon because he was feeding constantly from 11.30am till around 3.30pm.. He has been doing it for weeks, and I got a bit over it! I'm hoping he will go a little longer between feeds with the formula, still unsure if I want to actually put him on a bottle full time or not though...

I had some sad news last week, our old neighbour Bart passed away on thursday night, we lived next door to him and Ginny for many years and they were just like family.. His funeral is tomorrow.
Not much else to talk about, as I have not been doing much.. How exciting am I LOL...

Just have a few pics to show.. This one was taken the week before last, Zayne has started smiling a little and I managed to capture this one, it was taken the day after his first smile at 3.5 weeks.. How cute is it, I love it :-)
Little brother and big brother playing together on Zaynes new play mat.. From the looks of him I dont think he is very sure about it... He is 23 days old in this pic.

Can you believe what a difference a month can make? This first pic was taken just after we got home from hospital, He is 22 hours old in this one....

and 32 days in this one... He is so fat now, its sooo cute!!

After his bath this morning. Love them little fat rolls :-)

Just took this one before, have been trying to get him to have a sleep since around 11am, but everytime I put him in his cot he wakes up, so I put him in the pram instead and so far he's been asleep for around an hour, not sure what it is about the cot but he wont sleep in there during the day...

My latest 2 Layouts...

Thats about it I think, so I will probably see you in another month!!! ;0)

It's a BOY

We had our Baby Boy on October 10th at 8:01pm... His name is Zayne Robert, he was 9lb 5oz and 53.5cm long... He is now 10 days old and weighs 10lb 1/2oz... He loves to eat and thinks he should do so the whole time he is awake!!!! He is going maximum 3 hours between feeds during the day, usually the same at night. :-( Hopefully he settles sometime soon...

Anyway, he is hungry again so I will just quickly leave some pics....

This is Zayne 16 hours old..
Proud Big Brother!!

Proud Big Sister

Aunty Sheri..

Our Family.... :-)

The 2nd LO I have done of Baby Zayne

How cute is this little foot!!!

Zayne and his Daddy!!!

My gorgeous Boy :-)

Love him to bits :-)

I'm due today!!!

Yep... Bub is due today, but once again I dont think it will arrive on time. Both Jed and Tani went over so i'm not expecting it to be on time... Although I must say I am finally a bit over it. I havent had any troubles the whole way through but these last few weeks have been a bit much. I have big sinus troubles, i'm having sooo much trouble breathing, even after going on anti-biotics its still there, although it has cleared up a little its still difficult to breathe properly, which means I am not sleeping properly, which is driving me up the wall, I dont think I have ever been so tired!!!

LOL also I want it to come soon so I can go to floriade!!! I wont go while i'm still pregnant - just in case..... But it will be over soon.. I dont think I will get to go again.

I have finally finished work.. I done a wedding bouquet on friday and that will be the last I will work till sometime after bub comes.. It was really taking it out of me being on my feet all the time so even though i'm now broke and bored i'm glad im not working at the moment.. LOL

Last weekend I finally managed to scrap.. I finished off the snow LO that has been sitting at my desk for weeks, and I done the three others...





So when do you think bub will come and what will it be???? I still have no idea what it is and no names that we can agree on LOL.... It is going to be a nameless bub at the rate we are going... :-(

It's been a while!!

Since my last real post it has been months and months!! Lots has been happening, I am currently 37 weeks pregnant, it has been a good pregnancy, no real drama's, I have had really low iron and have to take tablets for it, but thats it. We don't know what we are having so it will be a big surprise on the day.

I have almost completely re- decorated my lounge room with new curtains, tv cabinet and lounge as well as changed to positions of all my pictures... I am waiting on a lamp table I have ordered and I will get a lamp for it as well as a new light for the ceiling and I will be just about done.. Oh besides all the extra's, like paint and cushions etc to add a bit of colour, but I haven't decided which colour to go with yet..

My dad turned 50 last month, on the same day Tani turned 5!! Both of my brothers cme down from queensland for it and it was awesome to see them, I miss them both, and Tegan sooooo much :-( But it's great to see them when I can..

Craig and Tegan are in Canada at the moment having a big holiday, They come back about the time our bub is due, so hopefully they will get to see it before going back to queensland!!!

I was lucky enough to get selected as one of the top 50 in the scrapbooking memories masters comp, there have been some awesome scrappers selected so im not holding much hope of being one of the 10!!

Umm what else? LOL heaps happening but not much to talk about.... Since I can't remember any more i will just finish with some pics.
Me and the kids yesterday..

Tani making bunny ears, LOL not sure what this was about but its a cute pic :-)

Jed and The Belly...

The bare belly, its nice and round but OMG do I have some bad stretch marks!!! Most of them are from Jed I think..

I love my loungeroom now!!!!

The 2 seater part of my new lounge suite..

And thats it!!! Although I' m sure no-one even looks at my blog anymore its been soooooo long since my last post. Leave a comment if you come for a visit :-)

Cyber Crop at SCRAPBOOK DIVAS

LOL its been so long since I updated here I almost forgot how to do it...

For the first time in many months I participated in a Cyber Crop at Scrapbook Divas this weekend, after so many months of having no Mojo what-so-ever, it is nice to be finally able to scrap again..
There were 3 layout challenges for the CC this months, all using the same sketch, just with different criteria.. I have had a quick look in the gallery, and there have been some great LO's uploaded... Go over and check it out :)

I'm Back :0)

Well yeah I know I didnt actually go anywhere, but I havent updated my blog for a long time, and have been reminded a few times that I should, so here I go....

I think my last post was some time in November, since then we havent really done anything exciting, and I havent really done a whole heap of scrapping either....
We spent Christmas Day at Dad and Auni's farm, it was a good day, the food was yummy as usual, the kids got tonnes of presents, and had a great day, I think the highlight was when they got to pat the cows, or when they got to throw rocks in the river.
It was a great day for all, but I did really miss my brothers and sisters, it was the first christmas I have spent without any of them...

Boxing day was spent doing pretty much nothing but playing with their new toys...
We went back to Dad and Auni's place on Saturday and spent the night, it was their housewarming party.... There was a lot of family there, My Nan and Pop on Dad's side as well as 3 of his brothers... It was a good night although I had a horrible nights sleep in the hut...

New Years Eve we had a BBQ at home with Matt, Karen and Chris... Was just a very quiet one.

It was great to see Tegan while she was here for christmas, although I do wish that craig could have come home too...

Ummm what else.... The laundry hasnt has much done to it since my last post.. On New Years Day I plastered the corners of the walls, and all the wall joins, I done a pretty good job too I reckon :0) LOL even if I do say so myself... Although with one corner to go I ran out of plaster, so I gotto wait till we get some more to finish the job..

Cant really think of anything else I need to write about, so here are my recent Layouts, in no particular order...
Some I like, Some I dont...

This one I done last night and I do quite like it... I made some sculpey buttons just for it
Its a pretty old photo, taken early in 2006
This one was for Karen's last class, It's done off a sketch.
Also an old photo, It was one of our 2005 Xmas photo shoot pics.. Just a random one, dont really like this one

This one was also for Karens Class last month

Another recent one, just done it last night/thismorning....

Another old photo from early 2006..

I'm a bit undecided whether I like this one or not....

Another Christmas one, just very simple.

The next 2 are the canvas' that I made my kiddo's for xmas this year, to hang in their rooms...

Not the best pics, but the flash reflects off the mod podge to get a good one.. Oh and Tani's was up high on the wall and I was too lazy to pull it down to take the pic..

Another CC LO.... Love the photo (from QLD hols in 2004) but dont really like the LO very much

Little miss Drama Queen .... I done this to submit to SC for the drama queen theme but havent sent it in as of yet, I dont really love it :0(

Another from the Scrapbook Divas CC, and another old photo, this one is Tanikas first christmas 2003

Just a random... Love the pic of the kids, they remind me of two old fellas standing around having a "chin wag" LOL

OK looks like thats it for the LO's...

Just a couple of pics now.... This one is Tani on xmas morning, gotta love that bed hair.

I'm glad my kids dont get up super early xmas morning though, I think it was about 7.30am this year and by the time we had brekky n stuff they didnt start opening pressies till about 8.15am
Jed on Xmas night... Playing with one of his new toys, Its a Mega Blocks Dragon castle set, He loves it!!

Just a random piccy of an Ice Cream Face!!

My little man's last day of Kindy... It was supposed to be his second last day, and I only took the pic on that day because the next day he would be wearing his sports uniform, but he ended up being quite sick the next day and had to stay home from school... And I had to take him to work with me :0(

Cutie Patootie :0)

I took these pics when we went out to the river to have dinner with Teegs and her Family... They have so much fun together, and Jed had a great time playing cricket with all the boys...

We miss you soooo much Tegan, I wish you guys would come home!!!

Well thats about it for now, It took me ages to write all this stuff, so I dont think I will let myself get so far behind again.... Maybe I should make it a New Years Resolution!!!
