Wow, lots has been happening with you guys!! I just haven't had a spare minute to sit and post.
Not much has been happening with us here. Hannah is nearly better. She's not sleeping alot today, but she seems happy enough. Maybe I'm too used to at least 8 hours of sleep a day. We probably got about 4 today, so its all good.

She hadn't eaten any solids for a few days, we didn't want to push her as she was sooo sick.
Yesterday I gave her some yogurt (just plain vanilla) and I put the first mouthful in her mouth and she broke into a massive smile and laughed and started kicking her legs around. I'd never seen her so excited!!!
I've tried giving her some sweet potato but she spews as soon as she tastes it. Tried it a few times now. What do you think it is? She just doesn't like it? Her favourite is broccoli.

Hannah is teething like mad. Its driving me insane. The tooth is just below the surface and her gum is so swollen. And she's turned into the dribble monster.
I wondered why her bibs were getting so incredibly wet, until I looked down and saw that she actually chews on it. Thats all fine with me, if she wants to chew on it. No dramas.
I would have thought that it was too early for teeth for Hannah. She'll be 6mos next week, but corrected age she's only 4 months.
This morning I was playing with her and she had my hand and shoved a finger in her mouth. I'd not long washed my hands so I knew they were clean and she had a massive chomp on them. I tok my finger out and she screamed!! Shoved it back in and she was happy. Out? She screamed. I tried giving her a toy to chew on but she still doesn't have enough coordination to put things in her mouth without alot of work.

I gave her a rusk today but its as big as her mouth!! She's only tiny!! She was happy just sitting and licking it tho.

EJ- I hope you feel better soon. How horrible!! My c/s scar is so incredibly itchy (I have a skin condition where I take ages to heal. My c/s looks like it was only done a few weeks ago. My appendix scar took 5 years to look like it should have looked after one year). It drives me mad, the only thing that helps is Bio Oil.
I can't imagine what it must be like for you. I hope it clears up. It sounds pretty nasty!

Bahaha, I wish I could get groceries delivered. That would be soooo awesome!! But, living so rural, its not a possibility. Besides, from my back deck I can see the supermarket. hehe. We try not to shop there, as its not a great variety and it can be up to 3 dollars more PER ITEM than travelling to the bigger town which is 120kms away. You can easily get twice as much stuff in town for your money than you can here.

Oh, and I'm sooo happy!!! We're getting married in September (hmmm, must actually organise something...maybe my dress...suits.... just little things like that, lol), and we were so worried about DPs parents seeing each other (they haven't spoken in 6 years and hate each other), but DPs sister got engaged and the engagement party is early July!! MIL and FIL (plus their partners) will be there. It'll be a like test run for our wedding. To see if they can get along. Haha, I'm just so happy.
I just hope they don't fight over Hannah. MIL hasn't seen Hannah since Feb (long story that makes my blood boil. Everytime we arrange to see her, she cancels and then complains about never seeing Hannah) and FIL came a few weeks ago. We've seen him few times.
Do you think this is wrong?? -- There's going to be a hell of alot of family at SIL's party. About 50 of them, plus about 50 friends. We've (mostly me) decided that we're not going to let very many people hold Hannah. People just assume they can hold her and it gives me the *****s. Its alot of people and alot of germs. There's going to be people that have to hold her, like MIL, FIL, and DP's grandfather especially. Last time we saw his grandfather he was too sick to hold her and ended up getting rushed to hospital and was gutted that he didn't get a cuddle. He has just finished a massive massive round of Chemo and Radiation for his lung cancer and was extremely sick.
We want to get a photo of Hannah and him as he may not be around much longer.
Anyway, the orginal question was -- Do you think that its wrong of us to not let Hannah be 'pass the parcel'? How do we let people know this without sound b!tchy? Cause people will get offended.

I know I've forgotten to mention something..... When does baby brain end?? I WANT MY BRAIN BACK!!

Big hugs to all you lovely ladies and your beautiful bubbas.
