Hi all,

By now or very soon our little babies will have or will be turning 1 This time last year we were either not sleeping because of the huge bumpage or not sleeping due to the new addition

Post here if you need advice or just want to share any milestones that baby has reached

Cerys was born on August 25th @ 6.52am weighing just 5 lb 12oz - 2 days overdue

hiiii miss leah
oliver was 30th aug weight 8lb2, 4 days over
cant believe theyre 1 soon, do you have anything planned for cerys' birthday??
how many teeth do all our little ones have now?? oliver still has none xx

we are just having a tea party for the family and of course she will be in her pretty birthday dress (well have to find a new one now cos the 1 i bought is too big FFS).

she has only got her 2 bottom front teeth, but whatever is coming through next is giving her grief. she is cruising along furniture at the mo and she is itching to get walking xx

oliver doesnt even seem to be teething lol
we will probs be having similar a tea party for family, nothing major
oliver is cruising, he can walk holding oe finger but as soon as i let go he just stands a sec then sits down lol think he just needs the confidence.
hope you have a nice party, although im sure ill speak to you befor hand lol xx

Hey ladies do you mind if I join you?
Charlies a September baby (03/09/09) but there's no other sept mums here lol

Hiya Kell - of course you can join Was Charlie meant to be an Aug or Sept baby??

Awww thanks!!

He was suppose to be an august baby he was 5days late! Little monster! Weighed 8lb2
He's got 6teeth! Which he likes to use on fingers far to much! He's also just this past week got the hang of walking! Although he still looks drunk it's so amazing watching him!

I can't believe in a couple of weeks he'll he a year old! It feels like only yesterday I was in labour! And I'd do it all again tomorrow if I could!

Hi. My son was born on 3rd aug 09. He was due 25th July.
I cant believe he is 1 already! It has flown by x

my bub was born 1st august ,,,, she is now taking very few steps on her own so i think in the next week or 2 she will be running about the house

Oooh hello Aug Mummies... I keep forgetting BANDA is here.. Naughty me!

How are we all?

Our babies re 1!!!!! Where did that year go?

Caitlin was born on 1st Aug at 15:54 weighing 6lb 8oz. Seems like yesterday she was born but now watching her run around and turn into her own little character it quite scary!

Hi everyone.
How are your toddlers getting on?
Thomas is not talking yet but he is such a funny little character. Always making us laugh!
How is everyone else? x

Hi Nikki, well Cerys isnt talking, she can manage "bum" and "get down" She started to walk at 14 months and now i cant keep her away from anything. Still only has 4 teeth. She's going through a very mischievous phase at the moment and she only seems to listen to daddy xx

Haha Thomas is the same but will not listen to me or daddy, he puts his bottom lip out and somehow forces a tear out!
He only had 6 teeth until a month ago, 4 more started to poke through but are still not properly there.
He says mumma, dadda, tea and caca for milk/drink but thats it.
He gets very frustrated as is desperate to talk.
He was walked aided at about 7 months but did not walk unaided until just after 1st birthday.
This is such a lovely age x

it is a lovely age, they are learning so quickly and some of the things Cerys does is hilarious - they are very entertaining x

I could not agree more!
Think we have a bitof the terrible two's on the way tho
Thomas head butts if he does not get his own way. Throws himself on the floor and has a right paddy! My other 2 never did anything like this so its all new to me x

oh heck I can sympathise, Cerys is the same at the moment, finding it really hard to discipline her in any way. She just looks at me and laughs if I try and tell her off x

I am so glad I am not the only one!
I am stuck for ways to disipline as feel he is too young to understand. I do not want him to hear NO all the time either but he does understand when you say no.
It's really hard.
A friend said her kids were on the naughty step at 12 months but I think it's way too early.
Really stuck x

that is early for a naughty step, Cerys wouldn't sit there for 2 secs even if I tried it. Its hard to work out what exactly they can understand and how much "selective hearing" they've got Cerys is a spirited character and she can be "wicked" I try not to tell her "No" too much because it's just a word to her and she has even started saying it back to me x

Thomas would not sit there either so now way will I even be trying that one yet.
He is not very naughty, he just does things like run up to tv and starts hitting it.
He follows me into kitchen and empties the cupboards and when I put him back in front room he screams and has a paddy. I can see him as have double doors that open up and they have glass in.
I do not want to tempt fate saying this but he is not bothered about the christmas tree! He touches it ever so lightly then walks away so thats a bonus x

danielle is a pain when she climbs up on things as she has no idea how to get back down so tries going headfirst !
she is very clingy towards me which can be a nightmare when i need 5 mins to do something ,,, i love how close she is with me but would love for her to willingly go to dad for a bozey in
she is not talking yet still babbles and is still a fussy eater

i love her randomness though and her hearty giggles

Thomas has become very clingy as well.
We go to a cookery club on a thurs and he is a nightmare, he will not even let me sit him on a chair next to me.
I have started doing something now regarding disipline.
I have bought his travel cot downstairs and now when he does something he shouldnt I say no and put him travel cot.
Hopefully he will soon realise that what he is doing is wrong! x
