aw im soooo pleased that all is well with harrys hip, have they given you any idea when they will decide which is the best course of action to take next, in one way we were lucky with issys arm as there was noting they could do so we didnt have the worries that you have, got an appointment through for prosthetics again not sure if we are gonna go, seeing as she wont wear it and she is able to do what she wants to do without it,just worried that if we dont when she decides she wants a cosmetic arm when older they wont see her, but at the same time i dont want to waste their time.
issy has been funny, i had to keep lifting her up so she could kiss james, harry and jays pictures on the fridge, she calls them all bubba its sooo sweet, but my arms are killing me this morning and im sure she is kissing the pictures away lucky i printed copies.
she is having her hair cut today, not sure how much to have taken off, its the top bit it just wants to fluff up and stick out every where lol
god this page is even slower than facebook this morning
take care all xxxxxx

joide - any news yet you must only have a week left if youve not already had him. cant wait to hear he has arrived safely xxx

joise..... she is so cute i could just eat her up!!!!
no wonder she already has a boyfroend lol.well just got back from harrys scan on his hip and it has all form correctly, which will mean that he wont have to have any operations to correct that before leg lenghting or removel is carried out, so at least thats one less thing for us to worry about.
hope everyone else is ok xxx

awwww she looks better in this pic lisa, but must admit i need a bit more practice on doing her hair it as a bit wonky lol
20/7/08 09:35
lol at issys hair the dragged through a hedge backwards twice look its sooooo uncontrolable, ill post a pic of when it used to stand up no matter what i did to it, i can now just about get it into bunches if she will sit still long enough, but it dont stay in long.
i did warn you about the radioactive waste they produce on that milk, but to me its worth it if they are happy and settled, issy did a wee wee on the pot last night wooop woop, made a change from her putting toys in it.
well its a lovely sunny day at the moment might get me bum in gear and have a stroll round the car boot, take care all xxxxx

had harry on comfort milk for a few days now and can really see an improvement at last. it feels like we have a completely different baby, even think he has started smiling but not 100% sure just yet.
hope issy is ok, at least she didnt seam bothered about hurting herself. and iam with you about people pushing their religon on you,every child is special, i love both my boys the same and feel equaly as lucky to have them both.
hope your all doing something nice this weekend, think we are having a housy weekend, loads of stuff needs doing.

aww poor you and martin, did you ask hv about that comfort mik? it really helps settle them if they tend to suffer with colic.
i had an email from a lady in america she sent me some pics of her little boy who is 2 and suffers with exactly the same condition as issy, but she is very religious and kept on about how god gave us these children and made them special, and that they were born to one day inspire others!!!!!! im sorry but that is toal bulls*** (no offence to any of you regarding religion) its genetics not god that made issy the way she is and she is very specil to me but not because of her arm but because she is my daughter, not sure if i will be able to continiue contact with them as i cant stand ppl forcing their religious beliefs on me, im catholic and keep my views to myself, wow that was a bit of a rant wasnt it lol
issy had a little fall yesterday and caught one of the little finger buds on her arm and it bleed for ages, but she didnt seem botherd about, she has a new word which she souts at the cat she tells him out lol she also says bumble as mr tumble, and she has started to point to the cupboard and say bic bic its soooo sweet.
hope you are all well and yeeeeeeeh its the weekend take care xxxxx

hi all, sorry ive not been on for a few days, just been having a rough time with harry on a night so been finding it hard to type and it make sence when ive had very little sleep.
both boys are asleep now so just a quick catch up before harry wakes for next feed in about 10 mins if iam lucky. martin did all the night feeds on tuesday night with out me even asking, i went to bed at 9pm so get some sleep before the night feeds but woke up at 4am. martin had stayed down staires with harry all night so he wouldnt wake me so i could try and catch up on sleep. which was so lovely of him. only thing is he forgot to give him infocol with any of his feeds so had a awful day/night last night with colic. poor harry was crying in pain and found it so hard to bring his wind up. poor martin felt awful hopefully he wont forget next time. felt sorry for both of them yesterday.
went to my sisters yesterday and left james shoes there, they live 18miles away and not going back till next wednesday so he has to waer his snadles that are half a size to small or his wellies that are 1 and a half sizes to big lol. put him in his wellies and he walks like a space man lol.
harry awake xxx

am i repeating myslef lmao
12/7/08 09:34
oh bum, ive posted all them pics in the wrong place Lisa
will try later to put them where they should be
Issy got on ok at docs, gotta put this cream on her arm at night and put a sock over it, needless to say the sock gets pulled off and she sucks all the cream off, so the plan tonight is to do it when she is asleep hopefully, it is what i thought that the skin on her arm is more delecate than on hands.
all day yesterday issy decided to practice being a terrible 2 she was a little moo all day long, emptying cupboards and screaming and throwing herself on the floor when told no, steve told her off and she came up and hit me, sometimes it hard not to laugh
its another day of rain so gonna try and get some decorating done in my bedroom if issy dosent have other ideas, she is starting to sleep less during the day now
toc, thinking of you and little teddie, take care all xxxx
