Oh Dear! I went back looking for my last post to help me do persies and it was on page 6 - way too slack on my part.

We had our trip away for 9 days - 5100km in 9 days including 4 rest days. Was great to see my sister and her family and finally meet my niece. Miss Z was a great little traveller. We would hit the road pretty early in the morning - once it was 3:30am and I would pump just before she was due for her morning feed. I would then drive and DH would sit in the back and give the EBM to her. DD got sick though the day before we had to start the drive home She apparently had/has RSV virus. Finally she is starting to mend though. Wasn't fun looking after her and DH while trying not to get it bad myself. We managed to get her some new toys - which she totally loves Have started solids - took a bit to get her interested. She's not a fan of puree really but loves the baby led solids approach. Rockmelon, apple, brocoli, capsicum, carrot, banana - not a fan of potato or pumpkin yet though and she loves watermelon and grapes in her mesh bag. Hates rice cereal though.

She is sitting really well on her own now and a couple of days ago she started using her arms to support her (we've been seeing physio about this) when I put her in a crawl position.

No teeth here - although soo much movement and you can feel them and see the little lumps. Mum was first word but it has been put aside for bubba and a combo of mumand bub

It's DH & my 5 yr Anniversary today

TK: How are you and your DH going? Hope you are feeling better and glad you got a good doctor who gave you the treatment you needed.

Misty: WTG on your licence! Must feel heaps better knowing you have that extra bit of independence. Hope you and Baz are feeling better soon. Another clever bub pulling up on things!

Saffi: WTG on the teeth? Grr @ your MIL with the steak. My MIL & FIL constantly have a go at me about my parenting. I'm so glad they're on the opposite side of the country. Woo hoo for the painted room.

TippyToes: Such a lovely thing being a god parent isn't it. You gals are lucky to have shared so many awesome things together. Yaaaay for Eli crawling and pulling himself up on things

Willow: 9.8kg and 68cm long - he sounds like a big strong boy. I've been thinking about doing the whole sleep school thing with DD. Trying to get her to sleep through the day is a nightmare - just naps, if that! She is constantly grizzly and needs non stop attention. How is gym going?

Trish: Sounds like Alana will be getting around on her own before you know it.

Salboo: Our friend has a Veebee play pen - by valco I think. It is great. We've been thinking about one as this house is hard to baby proof. So it seems easier alternative for when I want to get things done and DD is out of sight.

Koru: Welcome Back! Glad Orla travelled better than the past. Good luck moving house.

Megs Mum: Hope E gets better soon. It's so horrible to see them sick.

Chezel: 2 teeth in one week eeiik. Big effort!

Sorry to anyone I've missed. DD is cranky. Hope you Have a great weekend with your families xx
