    G'day Gals!

    Happy bunnies here, another great night. I heard her at 4am but she was 'chatting' and practicing her raspberry blowing, TOO cute! Then at about 4.30 she started to cry and I went in to find her wiggled down to the end of her cot and completely uncovered and cold! Cheeky monkey! I will have to put her in her sleeping bag tonight I think.

    Had my second New Mum's group today which was lovely again. There are some great ladies there including two others with English hubbys, so we will try and get the fellas together one day soon!

    I was meant to work today but little Gemma is sick with a flu like thing so am not going-don't want Hazy (or me!) to pick it up! Quite pleased (not that she's sick lol!) as it's persistantly raining here again and I'd rather not be out in it.

    We got Hazel's Jolly Jumper in the post this morning and she loves it! It's so funny to watch her in it and she's digging being able to be upright and able to turn around.

    Greenfern- Welcome to our BB group! I am in Brisbane, in Morningside on the southside. I get together with some Mums I met through the HC and you would be more than welcome to come along - the more the merrier! We are also planning to go to the Babes in Arms cinema showings sometimes. I don't know how far out you are but the offer's there. It's awesome that you conceived so quickly and without assistance! Wow to you big bubba- he sounds happy and healthy!

    Adele- Wow to conceiving so quickly and naturally against the odds! Mother Nature sure does know best and you were obviously meant to be a mother. Apparently bubbas will 'forget' things they have learnt temporarily while they are learning new things, but it's all stored away in their amazing little brains for future reference! A move to Hong Kong would be amazing- certainly closer to Australia anyway. I know what it's like to move away, we came back here after 7 years in the UK when I was 7 months pg.. It's great to be back and near my family but it's bittersweet as we REALLY miss our friends, family and life in general back there....

    Kaz- Yay on a 9hr sleep! That's more like it! Glad your colds are getting better.

    Kris- Poor little Dylan! It's heartbreaking when they cry real tears isn't it. Hazel has her vaccs on Thursday and I'm hoping it won't be too bad.....have got the paracetamol at the ready though. You are doing such a great job coping with having two littlies AND keeping your sense of humour all the while! Don't feel bad about the gym- there are only 24 hours in the day and your boys are more important.

    Kel- I'm so glad Lily has settled down for you, poor little sausage.. It's great to have family around to hold and amuse them sometimes, allthough Hazel will cry if I leave the room now except for when she's with DH!

    Melissa- It's so cute when they chat to their toys! Hazel also chats to and laughs at the dogs! I wonder what she makes of them? Hopefully the 5 weeks will go quickly til Olivia's assessment and then you will get good news!? It's great that she's still learningroll over etc despite the harness!

    Jen- have you signed up at the HC for a new mum's group. It's a pretty random gathering of lots of different people from different walks of life but I'm finding it great. It's saved my sanity getting out and chatting to other new mums and making some friends too. There is also the local mums group thread here on BB, maybe you could check it out if you want to get out and do coffee with other yummy mummies!

    Danni- It is such a sad but happy thing watching our little ones grow and develop! Boo to your bad nights, hopefully being in the cot will make a difference!?!

    Well this has been a bit of an epic- I must go and do something productive while my treasure is sleeping
