Nell, sorry the interview didn't go well. You probably don't want to look after other people's children yet anyway. There will be other jobs, we teachers are in demand! I know I will enjoy it once I am back at school in January, but the thought of it is just awful right now.
Cass, we don't have a bathtub so we always have showers here. Byron and Edward both love it, luckily as they don't have an option until we either move or extend.
We are doing well here. Both boys are sleeping well. Edward has slept through a couple of times again in the last week, and is getting to about 4am on the other nights. Daytime sleeps are still a bit short, but that will come in time too.
Edward is loving his solids! He is still only having the one feed in the evening as I don't want to shock his little digestive system, but his little face lights up and he opens his mouth when he sees the bowl and spoon. I will probably add a second feed this week since he is officially 5 months.
Edward is rolling all over the place now. once they can move I always wonder why I was so anxious for the moving to start. Now everytime I turn around he is lying somewhere other than where I left him. I guess sitting and crawling won't be too far away. He is VERY strong.
I have been sewing nappies and covers. I got a few fitteds and am kind of hooked. Now the plan is to make enough for all the time out of materials that I have here. So far I have used flat nappies, an old towel, some old flanalette sheets and cotton jersey Tshirts that we were going to stick in the charity bin. They are pretty good actually, but I need an overlocker to neaten them up a bit. I will have to pinch my nanna's when I go up to Cairns next month. She doesn't sew anymore.
Better go, have washing to do... just for something different.
