Lise I went back to work when Linc was 4 months and cried almost daily untill I left that job in December, I'm in a better place but still two jobs on the go. Wish I could find one 3 day job that paid well......... #2's must be in the air hay... so exciting.
BOC sorry to hear about DS infection not fun. Good to take a break from TTC if you're stressed not a good combo.
Murph, hope you enjoyed playschool,
Grub happy to answer, we have 3 frosties and that is my ONLY hope, DF wouldn't go through ICSI again, he's a woose. I think that if there's a will I can negotiate the money stuff that's easy. Enjoy not working If #2 happens I'm taking at least 6 months off this time.
Kelly teething is nasty I hate, hate hate it. I read about "Baltic Amber" have been thinking about it, any thoughts?
Wow Janie a 2nd Birthday, Jazzy will really be into it... how much fun.
ATM enjoying my only day off this week, just put Linc down for a nap he's only had one nap a day for a week, and was going down at 9.30-10 too early waking at noon and KRANKY by 4, so I stretched him (with the wiggles) till 11.30, fingers crossed happier baby. DF is getting his bandages off tomorrow (elbow and wrist surgurey for carpel tunnel) hope he's in a better mood... Men aren't great at pain are they
fingers crossed for you green! it only took us one! Mind you i am so loving having DS atm that I kind of feel like BOC - i do wish we could have waited a bit longer and probably would have if we didn't have to move etc So BOC, enjoy him while you can!!
green - i remember you went back early, i don't know how you do it! i'm in awe! Oh and DS was the same. He'd sort of need a morning nap but needed a day sleep more. So i do the same and just stretch him out to 11.30/12 (fortunately we do a couple of play grops which keep him well occupied) and i find he goes down no problem when I put him to bed... and atm does a between 90 mins and three hours. he's also much happier to sit and play in his cot quietly in the morns and arvos, so i get a rest at taht time too!!!
yeah i know lise - i just didn't not want to mention you lol iykwim. grub logic dat is!
murph, gotta love playschool! its the only program ash watches (if yo don't count the rSpca and pedigree dog ads lol he loves animals!)... the other day they did a kissing song and Ashton started blowing kisses back to Justine. then when DH got home Ash just ekpt puckering up for daddy and giving him full on mouth kisses lol. mummy didn't get a look in and I'd been trying to teach him to blow kisses for ages!
seems he also likes johnny cash lol. and does this strange little dance thing! oh and we've taught him tiger hands - he walks around doing them too cute!
Oh Grub... just had to share! I was in Charlie Square today, and near the glass elevator was standing a preggy girl in a lovely purple dress, and my she looked like you! And she had a boy about Ashton's age in a pram. I was sure it was you! I was walking towards her, going to ask if it WAS you, got right up close... then I remembered that you moved away bahahahahaha! She sure did give me a funny look though!
lol was i pretty??? No i was at home dribbling on my pillow for my arvo nap.... You'll know when you see me, I'm the one with my dress tucked into my undies and spagetti down the front of my top (yes, that's no exaggeration, i just killed my last white tee!)
oh and the child chucking a squealing tantrum... and I probably just tripped over my own feet... lol.
imagine if you went up and said "hi grub!" that lady would have had a complex. But I hope we do get to meet one day!!!
Green Finn often has just one nap during the day but he usually doesn't wake till between 7-8 so if we're doing stuff in the morning ( which is about 3 days per week) he'll stay up till about 12/1 then have a big sleep. Seems to work for us though I did think 7 months was a little young to have just one nap!!
Hehe BOC, thats funny! I have to confess that I did/do always look for you and Grub when I'm in Newcastle, and this started before I knew what you looked like. Don't know how I thought I was going to recognise you...
Well I just weighed my little heffalump - one week off 9 months and just over 10 kgs. And here I was worried he wasn't eating enough solids
Hope everyone is having a lovely Tuesday

Lise you'll have to let me know next time you're coming up this way, we can arrange to meet for coffee or something!
Hehe it was funny! And I must confess, it wasn't the first time! Late last week I almost approached a old school friend's husband, he is a SAHD and I was going to ask how their 6 mth old bub was and have a chat, until I realised he wouldn't have the foggiest idea who I was as I'd never met him before, I'd only seen him in her FB photos! Oops!
One of the downsides of having a really good memory for faces & names LOL
Alright I'd better get off here, little monkey has only slept half an hour since 5am and if I don't get him another half hour to an hour now he'll be asleep in his dinner!!! Little blighter seems to have developed an aversion to his room at the moment too. Screams even when I'm walking towards it! So for now he will only nap in his pram or in the car! Grrrr frustrating!
BOC, I did that to a friend's husband in Woolies! I'd only seen him in her FB photos and I went and introduced myself. I'm sure he thought I was a complete freak, when I told my friend (his wife) she said he's really really shy!! Oh well, I'm a sociable person, even though he didn't know me I would have felt rude not saying anything
And will definitely let you know when we're up that way next. We don't go up that often, a shame because I do like Newcastle but can't stand DH's parents. Bad daughter in law!!
