Hi - I think I had the opposite thing - Caitlin never engaged properly and I was induced two weeks late. Also, before she was born, i didnt think much of the difference in weight in pounds, six, seven, eight pounds ? Caitlin was 8 lb 7 and lying next to the 6 lbers she was huge ! She would have been two alex's ! four litres of milk.

Before caitlin, i noticed with children of friends' that the year between two and three is so big with their learning and understanding things. They're not even a toddler any more at three it feels like.

At this moment, in the room next to the computer, its big birds birthday - I just made him a cake - a loaf pan with a piece of paper stuck over it for caitlin to decorate and i just gave her a ruler to use as a knife.
