Jodi, i remember a series of three nights in a row, when bilbs pooped thru three night nappies per night - she was unwell at the time. but not related to formula. those three nights totally justified my night nappy stash (including some quick dry ones).

do you have a little squirt? or flushable liners? they are great for dealing with poop.

Pink - glad you are ok after the fierce storms. the amount of rain that brissy got for the 2nd storm, was what my city got for THE WHOLE YEAR.

NESSA - **** - i can't wait til you are gone from Spider House! Pest sprays make me feel sick (too many chemicals) i don't know what i'd do in your position.

but i would wash the inserts you sprayed MANY times before putting them near mj's skin. the ingredients of bug sprays are so lethal. i'm sure you know all this already, i'm just fussing.

i would really miss you lot if i didn't have a computer anymore.

Kitten3 - i like seeing all the drying nappies on my clothes horse, you're not alone in that.

Maz - dancing naked in the rain - sounds glorious - something i hope i get to do at least once before i die.

wotbb: i'm so furious with dh, i have no idea.

i have letters from two govt departments - dh's lack of action re tax returns has resulted in them charging me 20k. i am devastated. i have nothing to sell that is worth one grand, let alone 20. how can someone that claims to love you, do this to you? how could he do this to bilby?

Oh Gigi sweets, I'm so sorry. Just what you don't need right now. I wish I could be there to give you a hug - cyber hugs just seem so inadequate sometimes.

Suse - you are freaking me out

Maz, you're not the first person to tell me that you know.

What's a dutch auction? Is it where you get a free pair of clogs with every purchase?

OK, on the joys of seeing nappies hanging on the line/clothes horse... Does anyone else colour coordinate when arranging them on the clothes horse? I even have nappies which 'go together' in a particular wash cycle, just because they look good next to each other on the line.

Euan fell asleep at 9:00 - we would have kept him in his nappy (he was still in a sposie) but then he woke at 11:00 so we figured we might as well change him into a night nappy (which turned out to be another sposie due to the copious amounts of Sudocream needed on his poor little red bum, it's in a spot that is just not good for liners). I'm just slathering on the cream before doing up the nappy, so his bum's in the air, when he pees everywhere. And no, everywhere is not an exaggeration. Right at this point, DP starts sneezing constantly, like about fifteen sneezes in a row. I think he reacts to the Sudocream. This freaked Euan a bit, who starts crying his little tired eyes out. We get him settled and get the wee cleaned up. Take two, I wipe off all of the cream, because half of it was covered in wee and smeared all over the table, start again, dry his bum properly (it's so humid up here), put on more cream, go to do the nappy up.... yep - pees AGAIN. We're all getting pretty cranky by this stage, and when I get cranky, Euan gets cranky (you'd think I'd learn by now). DP is still sneezing by the way... Take three, I've just put on the cream (after waiting a good minute to make sure he's finished), and out comes a last little dribble, which luckily I caught with a cloth, so we didn't end up with a take four. A good thing too, because we were starting to run out of sposies (and I had long since run out of patience).

(And that's my funny story for the day)

WOHB: A bleeping sposie (see above), about a kilo of Sudocream, with wool soaker over the top for luck.

I just kept thinking of a Dutch swap, you know, where you let someone in front of you in line, but then they let you in front of them.

Gigi... Man oh man honey. If there is ANYTHING we can do to help...How does it work that you get the bill? Just because you're married? I'll pray.

Ness, wow that was quick.

thanks
