    Cambell was 6kg at 6 months small little buba I think link is close to 6.5 already (need to weigh him) I'm getting muscles Happy Holls Saph enjoy I hope your boys are good for you.

    Lenny thanks for making me feel not so alone.

    Smithy for not so much sleep but for happy little Miss C.

    Well Linc must have known daddy was away cos up at 12.30am then 5am then not happy little man, I pulled him into bed but he wriggled so much It was hardly worth it, I gave in at 6.30 and unwrapped him, then put up with very fussy man till 7 then I let out a big yawn and he burst out giggling and we got up I just wanted a little more sleep.

    Oh his feet were out of the basinett in hamock lat night so I chocked up his bed and he's in it now, he's woken three times not very happy so I think I'll pop the basinett in the cot for a few nights so he slowly get's used to his new bed and I don't have to worry about him falling out.

    ahhhhhh Linc wont burp and has been farting non stop for two hours, every time I put him down he looses his dummy and screams. OMG, I totally forgot how awful this is.

    oh lenny that's cute about the egg. Our boy will get easter choc.. but one egg and a game.. my mum and dad alwasy got their 3 kids one egg and a boardgame to share... as a result we are all complete nerds but love a good game. they still get pulled out when we are altogther and it was a lovely family thing to do I can't wait til ash is old enough to beat him in monopoly lol and i'm sssoooo using my trivial pursuit cards from the 1994 junior version against him! he won't have a clue mmmwwwaaahhhhh.

    oh saph. ash is the same when i try to get him to lie down with me! it's just not worth it and neither of us get any rest! oh that's exciting the move to the cot! and wow campbell was tiny! but from the pics i've seen, i don't think you'd know now hey.

    hi to all the girls having a good weekend? do anything spesh?

    well, we had an absolute doozy yesterday. We went camping. yay. got there about 1pm, set up, went for a walk along the most amazing beach with sanddunes, back to camp got ash ready for bed he laid in his bassinette quietly while we cooked dinner, ate dinner...

    then the camping monster came out! bascially there was too much going on for him to really have a proper sleep since he got there so we was overtired and just screamed and screamed and screamed (you knwo that scream!).

    Only boobie and mummy could get him to sleep but if i dared put him down! anyhoo after hours of this and disrupting the entire camp site we had to pack up!!! so at 9pm last night DH packed up camp while i sat in the ute and fed/cuddled ash to sleep!!! got home at 11pm and fell into bed exhausted at 11.30pm (after another 30 mins of settling bubbee). Now we've got to unpack our hasty packing and repack all our camp stuff!!! OMG. DH also got a nasty burn on his finger and we burnt our roast tatties... been declared THE WORST camping experience ever!!!

    lucky we were so tired on the way home we were laughing about it. So i'm even more dreading our trip to tassie next week. Apparently i was a fussy baby who ONLY liked to sleep in my own bed... i'm a bit scared we have a carbon copy on our hands!!!

    anyway on the positive side, he slept til 4.30am and then to 9am so i got a good kip in! but what a dramatic way to get it! lol.

    but we won't be defeated. we will go again, but somewhere there aren't other people so if he's screaming etc it won't be so stressful.

    Hi girls.

    Grub, you poor thing, what a nightmare, bet the other campers were 'happy campers' after you lot left Adam had a hissy fit like that once when we were out and we had to abandon plans because he was just a mess. He was so overtired I could hardly get him to stop crying enough to get his milk in. Take a deep breath and try again soon!

    Hi to Lenny, BW, Smithy, Murph, Janie, Kelly, BG and anyone I have missed. Hope you are all having a lovely weekend.

    Well, I am a wee bit seedy today. My DH's 40th lunch and we then went out in town last night while Nanna looked after Adam. He was sound asleep and didn't even know we were gone. Got a bit excited to be out and about and out of practice so not feeling wonderful today. Twas fun though, but it will be an early night tonight for me and not getting any study done.
