Hello again fellow bloggers :) Its 12:03pm and Tobias is laying next to me on the couch testing his voice box. He loooves the sound of his own voice. Which usually gives me a headache. I've propped him up against me now and he is intently watching me type. We went for a 50 minute walk this morning and as soon as we got back I jumped on the cross trainer (for the first time in months) for ten whole minutes which for me is pretty darn amazing. Then I just about calapsed off the cross trainer, put Tobias in the lounge room, had a shower, glanced in the mirror and just about died! My face was red raw and thats when it clicked, I'd forgotton to put sunscreen on.... :S Whoops!! I just covered it up with foundation so I dont look like a beetroot if anyone visits.
As for Tobias's sleeping, it has gone back to being very broken during the night. For example, last night he went to bed at 9:45ish, then woke at 11pm, 1am, 3am, 4:30am and then 7:30. It kinda sucked not being able to get a decent chunk of sleep because thats basically what he has been doing for about 2 weeks now I think.. (something like that anyway). Its more disappointing because he had started sleeping through the night from 10pm until about 7 or 8am. It was great! Oh well, we cant have everything i guess. :P Anyhoo... Tobias is due for a feed now so I'd best get on top of that..
Catch ya later xoxo

New Beginnings
Good morning all. Its Monday the 7/2/2011 9:08am (according to my computers clock).
How was everyone's weekends? Mine was pretty boring, although I do have some news.
I am starting a lifestyle change as of yesterday. Yesterday morning Tobias and I went out for a walk to the chemist (its about 25 minutes each way) to pick up some nappies and formula. Well, after picking up those two items I wandered over to the weight loss section and ended up stocking up on 2 weeks worth of dietry shakes! I am currently a size 16 and the last time I weighed myself I was about 90kgs so I have finally worked up enough will and courage to start to lose weight. So yesterday was day one and this is how it (and all others from now on) will go...
Wake up, clean up dishes and such from last night, have a dietry shake for breakfast, go for a walk, have a shower, do any washing that needs doing, have lunch, do any housework that needs doing, maybe go for another walk, then have a healthy (but hearty) meal for dinner.
It is going to be so hard because I absolutely love my food, but I would really like to trim down in time for my best friends wedding in april. Well, I'm hoping to be at least half way to my goal by then. I would like to lose a total of 20kgs, maybe 25kgs, so that I am the right weight for my health.
Anyways Tobias just woke up, so I'd better go get him before he cracks a major. I'll be back later on though to update you on his situation with his sleeping and such. It hasn't been the best lately.. :S Anyways catch ya later xoxo

Skipped a day but I'm back
Hi all, sorry I didnt post yesterday. I ran out of internet credit. (We have prepaid mobile broadband). Yesterday Tobias and I went out to the shops to get out of the house because I felt like I was going insane! It was good to do some retail therapy but I ended up spending a bit more than I should have, buying the original Monopoly game and a DVD of the Beatrix Potter collection. (Peter Rabbit and such). Oh, and a bunch of chocolate that I really should have left at the shops.. lol :P
Then I came home and it was back to boring.
So today I went out again (I was supposed to meet up with Tobias's dad but that didn't end up happenning) so I just shopped around again. didn't buy anything though except KFC for lunch. I have been craving it the last few days. It was sooo gooooood :) I really should not eat as much junk food as I do. I always pay for it when I look in the mirror :/
I was also supposed to have lunch with a guy I met on Oasis Active today but he bailed just as I arrived at Marion saying he had to leave for a doctors appointment... Well... I have my doubts. I was quite pissed off (excuse the language) because it was all-systems-go until he realised Tobias was coming. (I did say to him last night he would be coming but he obviously wasnt paying attention) so when he suddenly couldnt hang around I immediately deleted him from my list of possible friends. That was so rude and anyone who isnt cool with Tobias, isnt cool with me. Stupid men. Ugh. Dont get me wrong, the good ones are out there (or so I've been told) but where on earth are they??? Lol! Oh well, Mr Right is out there somewhere. Perhaps we will meet at the Ballroom Dancing classes I am going to enrol in soon. They start in March and I am SUPER excited! I've always wanted to learn how to dance properly and this is my chance to do something awesome for myself.
Anyhoo, hope your all well, whoever you are :) See ya tomorrow :)

Back again :)
Hi all, yes I'm back for another round while Tobias is asleep. This is actually quite fun because it gives me something to do and something for you to read. :) Lol even if it is just a whole bunch of babble.
Can I ask you a question? What do you guys think of online dating? I do it to knida kill time when Tobias is asleep, hoping to meet someone genuine. The chances of that are so incredibly slim, almost every guy I talk to instantly begins flirting and hinting about jumping into bed. Its So FRUSTRATING! I just tell them all to bugger off because thats not what I am looking for. Its such a pain. Then when you do end up meeting someone who isnt like that they are not interested in going out with someone who has a son. (Which is understandable I suppose). I get really annoyed sometimes when I think about that. I cant just go out when I want anymore, cant stay out late or go out to dinner with a man unless I bring the pram and that just makes it awkward. :/
I'm sure alot of you would probably tell me how selfish I am being and how I shouuld just be focusing on Tobias but I have needs too.
If I just focused on Tobias all the time and push my needs away into a dusty old corner and never paid them any attention I know I would get depressed. How do I know this? Well because I tried it and that is what happened. It's just the way I am. I get lonely very easily and I crave cuddles late at night. At least by going on Oasis every now and again I can keep my loneliness at bay. And it kinda helps me think, "See? Haha you don't really need a guy, they are all too sleazy." So i back off a bit and I feel better for it. :)
I dont know if this is making sense to you. I hope so. Maybe you feel like that too sometimes? Let me know :) Bye for now :) xoxo

Day 2
Well, Tobias had a health check today and it turns out he is actually 4 and a half months old, not five.. :P I was getting a bit ahead of myself. He weighs 8.8kgs and is 68cm long/tall. His social developement is right on par where it should be and his size and weight are excellent too. He is a very healthy baby, minus a tiny bit of congestion in his nose. He should be rolling over soon, he can roll onto his side, he just hasn't figured out that he has to move his arm out of the way to roll completely over.
Last night we had an excellent night! He went to bed at about 8:45pm and didnt wake up until about 8am this morning so I had a great sleep!! :) He is now on his back on the floor just having a bit of a play before his next feed. He is due to go back to bed at about 1pm or 1:30pm. He is getting a bit testy though so I may have to go get his bottle ready now. I can't breast feed otherwise I wouldn't be giving him a bottle. It's a long story but it really sucks.. Anyways I'll probably be back in about an hour or whenever he goes to bed.
Is anybody out there actually reading this? Or am I just sending stuff out into a black void? Please comment if you do read this! It'd be great to know there is someone who can relate! :) Talk soon! xoxo

My baby boy is 5 months old already!
Hi out there! My name is Tiffany and I am 19 years old and I have a 5 month old son named Tobias. I am a single parent living with my 23 year old sister. In this blog I am going to just write about everything I am going through, things that annoy me and things that I love.
Right now it is Sunday 30th of January 12:30pm. Tobias is asleep and has been for the last 2 and a half hours. I am sitting on the couch in the lounge room bored out of my brain. I was meant to work today (I work casually at McDonalds in the McCafe.) but I had to call up sick because I have a cold. That really sucks because I only do one shift a week anyway and its my one chance to have some time to myself where I dont have to worry about Tobias for a few hours.
My days usually run something like this:
6am - Tobias wakes for a feed
6:30am - Tobias goes back to sleep so I have a shower, get ready for the day and do last nights dishes. Then I'll tidy up a bit and watch some TV and check facebook until Tobias wakes up again.
9am - Tobias wakes up for the day. I feed him, bath him and play with him until he is ready for his nap at about 11am.
11am - Tobias goes to bed and I watch TV / check facebook until he wakes up again. then its feed, play, sleep. watch tv. he wakes up, feed, play, sleep. watch TV... etc etc etc etc etc...
It continues on until about 10pm when he goes down for the night. My life is so incredibly boring. I dont have my drivers license or a car so if i want to go out it usually takes up the whole day, trying to make sure Tobias gets his sleep when he needs it while we are out. I feel like all I do is clean the house, wash the dishes, do the grocery shopping and look after Toby. The same thing day after day drives me insane!! I'd love to go out more shopping and such but its so difficult with him because he hates being in the pram.
Sorry, it seems like all I am doing is complaining. I'm just trying to give you a mental picture of how bored I am all the time. I thought if I start a blog it might give me something to do while he is asleep. And hopefully connect me with people that are sort of feeling the same or get what I am going through. My other 1 post blog sort of describes how I got into this situation.
Anyways, I hope you stayed tuned, I promise things will get more interesting than this :)
See you tomorrow! xoxo (or perhaps later on this arvo) :P
