Soph I am so sorry to hear about your night. Letting them cry is the hardest thing but she wont remember it when she is older. When I was a baby i was really ill with reflux anyway a Dr told my mum at about 7months or so I needed to learn how to fall asleep on my own so she was to put me in bed and close all the doors and just leave me. Back then what Drs said was gospel so she did and it took me a couple of hours to cry myself to sleep and mum sat and cried at the kitchen table the whole time...still to this day she says it is one of the worst memories she has ..poor mum...me I dont have a clue heheh.
Fletch I love the new pic of Zane ..he looks so cute!. What have your organised for Zanes 1st Bday? Might have to "borrow " some ideas hehehe.
Rae if you are just relaxing come to my place I have plenty of ironing you can do hehehe. Just kidding relax and enjoy a well earned rest!
Brooke so sorry about your folks ..it is horrible hey. But I think sometimes parents dont realise that they have not been replaced but there is a new family forming as well and that just has to take priority. I think DH;s family was suprised that he took stood by my side rather then theirs ...his older brother always stands by theirs not his wifes. Now they are fairly clear on how much our family means to DH and I ...and I am now withdrawing myself from them and it will be a polite relationship...no more calling them mum and dad... I mean I treated her like a mum ..she betrayed my trust ...bye bye ...she has set the tone for the relationship ..made her bed and now she can lay in it !!!!!!!!!
Hiya to all the other girls and bubs!
Well we had a SHOCKER of a night last night . Kaitlyn slept all night but the rats kept us up . They were so BLOODY LOUD even our cats did not sleep in the bed with us!. So tonight if they are not dead from the bait ( gosh I hope they are) then we are moving the mattress to the loungeroom so we can actually get some sleep.
Today I took Kaitlyn to a playgroup in our area . Really nice bunch of ladies and a few kids Kaitlyns age so it was really nice. For the next few weeks before I go back to work I am going to try and socialise her even more with large number of kids in the hope that she will feel a little more comfortable with all the kids being around her at daycare...should have started earlier but oh well . So she is snoozing now and I expect her to be up any minute and we will have a nice afternoon of playing at home. She is crawling everywhere so I am trying to get the place childproofed so she can have the run of the house. She currently loves the glass coffee table of course , surround sound speakers , powerpoints and cables and anything she cant have!. She has also worked out she should not throw things off her highchair so she holds her cup over the side and waits for me to say no then she drops it hehehe. MIL said I should get her in trouble and put a stop to it ..PLEASE!!! I just say "Please dont do that honey" and a soft "no" Think she is a bit young to be yelled at!
Tell me girls do you give your bubbas cups of milk yet? Someone told me it can make their bowel bleed if you give it to them in large QTY before 12months?????.
