Kim - Fingers crossed for you!! Hope things go well! OMG about the dogs! How is Hayden doing now?

Rhi - Good luck with the cold turkey dummy. We really need to do the same thing here. Sleep school - I'm going to hold off for a while, he may just grow out of it. My sister went to one, through her health nurse. I don't know where it was, only that she was there a week.

Becca - Congratulations on Xavier crawling!! It's such an exciting time now that he can get to what he can see. Only now, look out! He'll be into everything! lol I agree that BF bubs slow down on the weight gain. Jensen actually lost 5g between 6-7mths. But he's right back up now and is getting a buddha belly. How exciting about the house!

I can hear Jensen having a sook in the loungeroom, so I best be quick... Jensen's caught a cold. After discussing how sick my sisters boy was in his first year, and saying that Jensen's never been sick... What happens? He catches a cold. He's not alway as irritable as I expect, but sometimes he's a nightmare. Snot running from his nose and drool from his mouth (so he can breathe better he breathes thru his mouth) is not a good look. Had a fever of 38.8 the other night, seemed to go down with panadol and huge 1130pm feed of bm. During the day, he wont bf, so, despite the fact I'm a little disappointed he's not feeding from me, he has to drink something.... Most times you don't even know he has a cold - he's just a normal baby up to his good ol' tricks. His new thing is to stand up on his own with out holding onto anything. Frightening to see as you see all his babyness gone and this little toddler boy grinning stupidly back at you. Makes your heart melt too.

WORK.... Well I went in Monday and I needed to have chat to my boss. I got to my desk and there was work in my tray!! Woo hoo!! Only as I thought that the other girl, without looking up from her work, says don't bother doing that work, its for someone else. So I sat there. Then she snaps and says to open my email and print all the invoicing requests. Ok. I did nothing for a good 30mins waiting for my boss. When I get to speak to him I told him how I've been treated out there (and almost burst into tears), he says he doesn't like the way things are going for him either. We've lost a major client, so a lot a work is gone. He says that he'll have to cut my days down to 1 (from 2). I said thats ok, coz I want the rest of my maternity leave off. He thinks for a second, asks when I'll be back and says yes! Yay for me. Then he asked if I wanted to go then... I said yes and got dh to come back and get me! Best day ever! I did feel guilty for not saying yes to the one day a week, but there's no way that I'm doing 1 day a week and being treated like rubbish on that one day iykwim. So I've given 21 July as my first day back. The boss doesn't know much about maternity leave so he's loooking into it, as the boss that was there when I left told me that my job would open for 12 months, so I'm expecting to go back into my job.... we'll see how that goes.

Well, DH is waiting for me to get my gear together so we can go fix someones car..

Have a great weekend!
