hi there

wow at natasha taking her first steps wtg =D> and i can imagine jessica standing up and clapping how clever. we used to have a little boy a playgroup and when he first started standing up he would put his arms up aswell saying hooray - too cute lol.

lani is standing for around 5 seconds whilst holding onto my hands really tight - it has only been the last few days where she hasn't buckled her legs lol.

after lani's bath tonight i stood her on the bench in front of the mirror she thought it was fantastic kissing the mirror and talking to it she was so amazed - it was hilarious glad she's a featherweight and i could hold her there lol.

i have a hugely busy week this week so may not be around that much, starting off with kinder duty tommorrow - oh happy happy joy joy lol, truely i wouldn't mind it if i was on my own but it is hard now with lani and everytime i seem to do kinder duty they don't do anything exciting, other times they cook, learns songs in other languages or have incursions - why do i get the boring normal days lol. had a newsletter the other day outling all the things planned for term 3 and it mentioned their last day of term 3 would be september 15th i started crying, cause lani will be 1 omg it goes so quick.

dh has to drive up to albury and back tommorrow for a 2hr meeting gosh i hate when he has the long drives i will be a bag of nerves all day.

still waiting on sil's baby to arrive - she is now 9 days over and going really well, she is still enjoying being pg and is in no hurry - i think she is going for monitoring on monday and wednesday then they will discuss with her probably further on what action to take - hoping everything will be okay as she is high risk - but going to a major hospital so [-o< everything will turn out fine - am sure it will. the hospital is where our dd was when she was diagnosed so we have made a decision that we will all go and visit togther as a family and deal with the emotions of walking through the doors and up the lift it will be hard but as it is a big hospital there will be times in the future we may need to go there (hopefully for nothing serious) and to go on a happy occassion first time since we were there with jess will be another tiny step forward.

am off to quickly check the other forums then to bed.

have a good week
