Hi!

What a gorgeous day in Melbourne!! I've had the kids outside this morning and I will gain this arvo...Louis is having nap time at the moment and Dylans lying on his play mat chewing anything and everything! hehe. He's rolling over really well now and is great at tummy time! He's loving sitting up and can do it on his own for a little bit!
Sleeps improved a little bit. He's very unsettled at bedtime waking up all the time but once he settled last night around 8-9pm he didn't wake up again until about 12am for a dummy, then 2.30am for a feed, 4.30am for a dummy and 6.30am for a feed and snooze with mum! Thats the best it's been for a while so I can't complain too much!
He's having brekky each morning, rice cereal with bm and banana! It's taking him a little to get used to but he ate heaps this morning. I'm going to make some pumpkin tomorrow to start him on lunch on Monday. when he has his brekky he goes 4 hours between feeds and for the rest of the day it gets shorter and shorter between. He's still on 6 feeds a day...5 during the day and 1 overnight...

Greenfern - OMG - I can't believe how much he sleeps! You lucky thing!!

Melissa - Olivias sleeping great!! Aww how cute on the bathers!! I must get Louis some new ones soon...dylans just going to have hand me downs...hehe.

Erin - Big hugs!!! I know the feeling!! It won't last forever though that I promise! it's certainly hard getting through it though...bugger you won't be able to take the part time work - could be just the thing you need to get a break!!
Thats great that your going to play basketball. Bugger about the childcare...
Dylans been snotty as well - I think that was definitely a problem when he was waking all the time...Thats great selling your car!
You can get the grobags everywhere - kmart/bigw/myer...heaps of brands do different ones now...If it's that warm you probably don't even need one - just a pair of pj's. Over summer Louis sleeps in a t-shirt and boxers and Dylan will either wear flannie pjs or little t-shirt/boxers as well. They're great for the cold though.
So glad you got a better sleep last night!

Kel - Glad your well - these bubbas can be a bit unpredictable hey? One day is completely different to the other...I'm not even going to bother with a routine until Dylans on 3 meals a day.

Adele - Sounds like you had a great time at your mothers group - Wow what a big meet up! I wouldn't worry about being more productive with your days - just enjoy your time - your bubba will grow up faster than you can believe so you just need to make the most of each day with them!!

JenSam - Glad bubs (and you) are feeling better! Sounds like he has fun with his Nanna! Oh gosh - I would be so bad working in retail - I wouldn't earn anything I don't think. I'm already going to have to cap my body shop purchases now that I'm selling it! LOL!
Have you tried ebay for a jolly jumper?? We were given ours...Gosh - I wouldn't think it would say from 12 months - Louis was walking by then! hehe. I've already put Dylan in his once...really must get it out again (think I've written that about 10 x now! hehe)
Dylan up usually around 2 hours now...but it really depends - at least 1 1/2 anyway..Depending on the time I do the same as you!! He only takes about 5-10min to feed so the rest of the time is playing!!
Sounds like you've had a great day today!! My dh is away working AGAIN but luckily is also coming home tonight so just one full 24h with him away...I'm hoping we can have a nice day tomorrow...

Omg - he's fully just crawled about a foot along the floor...I think he's going to be an early crawler - he fully gets his knees up under his tummy and pushes...scary!! He's nearly of his play mat...hehehe.

Christy - Glad Hazel (and you!) coped ok with immunisations. They're awful aren't they? Wow she's almost the same size as Dylan! He's 63cm and 42cm hc but 6.4kg.
OOh what a fun shopping trip - I'd love to go on one of those where someone else is paying !LOL!

Gosh it's turned into an epic as per usual - chat later!
