thanks, you guys are awesome. i have been finding it so much harder to deal with having my own baby, y'know? it's just not right for a family to go through so much suffering, but it amazing to see how many people's lives she's touched and made so many parents say they're not going to take their kids for granted.

leash LMAO at your MIL at the red cross shop! that sucks they didn't listen. leash + mm + mel: i'm kinda funny about some toys/clothes - i've been given a few things i wouldnt have E wear out (mainly bibs with silly sayings e.g. "before you ask, YES i am a boy") and i really really don't want him to have those crappy phase toys based on the latest movie that's out that break quickly. DH + I invested (heh) in tonnes of lego in the 2 yrs before E was born.. classic toys like that i love and books, can't get enough of those. E is just getting one book from us for christmas this yr, it's not like he's going to know any different heh. can you re-gift them?? lol.

vic - YAY for N's big growth spurt!! that's fantastic, hope the shopping went well after such good news!

squidipa - do you know the people missing? that's awful news for whoever it is and, another big hug for the stuff you're going through. i'm glad you're being strong and choosing not to worry about that stuff before you know.

everyone I was going to post last night but was distracted when I saw a bolt of lightning I thought cool another storm then a HUGE crash of thunder came and I jumped through the roof and quickly turned the computer off.

Squidipa- How did you guys go through the storms? and sorry to hear about another weight loss Have any of the "doctors' or "health proffesionals" suggested anything?

I don't know how many times people have to told not to swim in swollen rivers or drains those kids that were caught in the river here in Caboolture don't have my sympathy

MM- I thought I was the only padentic one out there when it comes to the kids clothes PHEW! If I don't throw or donate the daggy clothes Cadence finds them and will ALWAYS dress herself in them

Sorry for the lack of personals there is another storm on the way and I have a HUGE headache

As Leash said we caught up at the holding hands morning tea Jaz is just gorgeous, I was a little sad to know that it was the last time I will get to see Anne our midwife she was sooooo nice and helpful it amazed me how they all remembered you and the details of your birth.
Allegra now has a new trick she pushes with her legs and slides on her back its soooo cute until she hits her head on the top of the cot

Hi Everyone,

Been a really busy week for me so I haven't been on, sorry! I just thought I would drop in quickly to say hi!

Jett has been an angel all week, except for Monday (did I post on Monday? Did I tell you his weigh-in details? I can't remember! ). He has really found his voice this week and is constantly talking. Has learnt how to project it too!!

Went to the movies yesterday - mums and bubs session which was really good. Jett was a very happy boy through it too - did start to have a loud chat so lucky it was a comedy and it wasn't a quiet/sad/romantic part!!

I pretty much slept and fed all day today so nothing to report there! I do feel much better for it though!

Glad to hear you are all safe up there in QLD. My aunt lives in The Gap so when we heard their area was the hardest hit (and it certainly looked it on the news) we were a bit concerned. But they are all ok too, a tree did come down on their new caravan, but big deal - it can be replaced and no one was hurt.

Ok, I'm off to bed...goodnight!
