Hi Girls

Lenny: I live 30km's west of Ballarat so it's even colder here...

Murph: Yay on the Centrelink bucks, just think finally some of your tax money is coming back to help you guys out. Doesn't happen very often...

Hi to everyone else...

I'm so exhausted, Tara had her first swimming lesson today can you believe she is 6 months old today... where does time go. She loved it but she was ready for a sleep 10 minutes into the class which goes for 30 minutes. Everytime we did time for her to lay on her back in the pool, I could feel her relax and the thumb went straight in her mouth for sleep time. Only problem was... and lucky for me DH came today to watch, how am I supposed to get out of a pool (not a toddler pool) with a baby that can't sit up yet?? All the other babies in her class (3) are older and can sit, crawl and walk but Tara can't do any so if DH wasn't there to take her from me at the pool edge I would have been in all sorts of trouble. So after swimming Tara slept for about 1 1/2 hours and is back in bed now for another sleep. I think I might have to have a nap myself as well, trust me you don't need to do water aerobics when you do swimming lessons... running around in circles, lifting and swinging baby, it is a good workout for mummies as well.
