Awww
Squidipa and Joshie. I hope you can get to see a pead really soon to sort out what the issue is. Remember that we are all here to support you all the way.
MM - I can't believe you had snow today, it was chilly here but still a beautiful spring day working up to 30 degrees on Saturday! In answer to your question about the Itti Bitti nappies I love them. The fit is neat and trim so all his ordinary clothes can fit him rather than going up a size or searching out outfits that are baggier around the bum. Absorbency seems to be great and they wash up really nicely, not like some of the other nappies I have. Being all in ones they are easy for anyone else to fit on him too. Glad to hear you got yourself a starter pack! I have uploaded a couple of photos of Jett in amongst all his nappies. He fell asleep cuddling one too! Pics are here and here Oh, and Jett was 4.9kgs last time he was weighed about a week and a half ago. Still a littly!
Kiwigirl - your photos are fantastic! I used to do photography at school but I didn't keep it up so I have forgotten all the good settings so I am a snap happy person now! I should try and get some better ones though - I love the black and white ones like you took! My year 12 assessment photos were in that style.
Pixie - you have now made me feel guilty about not doing my birth story yet.... hmm... I do keep meaning to get on to it. I want to add it to his journal too. I posted in your other thread, but yep, awesome story!
Starbright - it is great when we find little things that amuse, entertain and settle our little ones isn't it! We have a mobile that Jett loves to listen to while getting his nappy changed, and DH often whistles (badly!!) along with it so now when he gets cranky DH whistles the tune and Jett stops to listen!
Beema - Don't work too hard!
CM4E - Sorry to hear about your difficulties. Good on you for attempting to get DF in on the routine! Sometimes I think they need to be given no choice but to be involved for them to appreciate that you really are working 24/7! My DH is really fantastic, but sometimes he comes home and complains that he has been at work all day and had a stressful day blah blah blah. That is the point where I hand the grumpy Jett over to him and say that I have been trying to have a shower all day, I have milk and spew all over me and he needs to take over while I get that shower. It works great because I get the time out by getting time to myself, and he gets to realise that there are more important things than a hard day at work. Let us know how your new routine works...
Hey to everyone else! I better finish this post so I can get to bed!
I went for another walk with my mothers group today before our meeting. Jett was well behaved and has had a very balanced waked and sleep time. Although the sling had to be utilised once today!! But he has even gone to bed early tonight. Normally goes down around midnight, but tonight he had his last feed at about 8.45 and had a little play before being put down and straight to sleep at about 9.30! It will be interesting to see how long he sleeps for tonight.
Ok, I'm off, sweet dreams everyone!
Mwah!
We went for lunch but it was still pouring. Then dinner at the ILs, it was hard to get Beth to sleep and everyone was poking and prodding her. I was starving but the ILs are on a diet so dinner was nowhere near as nice as usual. and on the way home (10.30pm by this stage) some idiot taxi driver reversed into us when we were filling up the car! 
I told him that they better be doing it for them and not to be close to us, or expecting us to stay here forever, cause if we decide to move, I don't want to be guilted into staying ... "but we moved here for you guys ... blah blah blah"
We always said if any of our family moved closer than say 45 minutes away from us, we would be moving hours in the opposite direction .... (can't you just tell I'm not the kind of person who relies on family being close?? LOL!) It's bad enough as it is, whenever they come over (admittedly not that often) they just walk straight in without knocking, start moving stuff around etc .... come on people, it's my house, I think I deserve some respect ... VISITORS KNOCK .... I don't give a F*** WHO you are!!!
I HAD it all in order!!!! lol It was just a chaotic order!!
Yay on the new car!!! 
On a good sleep last night!!! And wow!! What a feeder!!!!! Has she always been like that??? I know when Shane is non stop eating and grumbly (screaming non stop for a good couple of hours!!) that my friend says it sounds like a "growth Spurt" and it can last almost a week- he was like that around 4 weeks, again at about 7 weeks and even just the last few days it seems its coming on again.. (being very sooky... only wants mummy and my boobie and doesnt want to sleep anywhere else but on me during the day- still ok at night though so far) 
been trying to sort him out an everything else.. looks pale as anything just fallen asleep he been watching dvd's in bed with his bucket.
