Thanks all for ideas to avoid boredom....i do most of those things, but think i will look at getting a Bumbo, think she would like that as she loves to sit up and look around but isnt keen on being in the reclined position in her bouncer. She is not keen on her pram for the same reason so i mainly walk with her in a sling which she likes. loves to be outside. She loves looking at herself in the mirror!! easily passes 10 mins....so vain!
MT:wish i could get grace to sleep that easily!! I tried a shower with her this morning when she was getting a bit angry and she loved it...giggled most the time, never thought to take her in the shower!
Sasha:love the sound of aerobics or yogo...might try something like that when she wakes up for her sleep.
Just thought I'd quickly catch up on posts - not really time to reply personally, but just had a big vent over in that thread.
Also, DP rang me this morning - his truck caught fire and he narrowly made it out, but lost EVERYTHING (including his car keys, house keys etc) ... he said as he was diving out of the truck, the flames were already in the cab, and the truck burnt to the ground. Obviously he's not going to work tonight but I have to ring him in a minute cause I may have to go pick him up from the depot ...
Holy crap MM !!!! Far out!!!!! I'm glad he got out ok!!!!
If you need anything - give me a "hoy" ok?
Beck - do you want to catch up sometime since we are both on the coast? I dont' work on tuesdays or wednesdays so can catch up either of those days.
Vic - its funny you say she's long - I compared her stats to DS when he was 4 months, and he was 1.3kg heavier than she is - and just 1cm longer... now he's on the 50% percentile for height and weight - so he's a normal toddler now.. I'm expecting huge growth from both of them - DH grew 5 inches one summer when he was in high school - came back the highest kid in the class (he's 6 foot 7)... yup... I'm always going to be the shortest in my little family!!!!
It was work's truck. I think he said that something punctured the tyre (there are lots of road works along the coast between Sydney and Brisbane), the wheel caused sparks to fly up which ignited the fuel tank.
I'm glad he got out OK too. I'm a little bit in shock - it'll probably really hit me once he gets home. His work are gonna give him a ute or something to drive home (thankfully we have spare car keys! The joys of a new car!) He didn't want me to pick him up, although he hasn't slept in over 24 hours now, and I think he was too tired to understand that I could bring his spare keys, and he was too tired for me to argue with him (he gets VERY stubborn when he is tired!)
Apparently his work is gonna compensate him for all the lost stuff too. Obviously, they are not making him work tonight
mm.....crap thats scary i do hope he is allright????? are u o.k? i would think u would be a bit in shock? was it ur truck or works? ohhhh my goodness!!!!!!
