Shell - that's a good point about my anxiety. I have settled him a few times but I really believe that DP is much better at it. He disagrees but he's had more practice too. I need to change my outlook there I think. I do try to stay relaxed.
Ellie - I would have banned them too. Anika is too young to cope with gastro!
Laura - on getting to the gym. I just cancelled my membership because I haven't been in months and after the c-section it might be a while before I could return. Good on you!!
Ali - Hi darl! Glad you had a better night last night.

AFM - Girls you are going to HATE me!! After feeding every 2 hours from mid afternoon and all evening last night (geez my bbies hurt!) Mr. J. slep last night from 12:30am to 7am!! Not sure that's normal at only 2 weeks old. I woke up this morning and was too scared to get up and check him - I lay there petrified for about a minute until I heard him breathe! He's having a bit of an usettled morning now but I feel great with over 6 hours sleep under my belt.

We've got friends coming over - we hardly ever see them and they're in the area for a holiday. Got three boys under 5 or 6 years old and the middle child is phobic of dogs. We are not kicking our dog out of the house for them though because she's still getting used to Mr. J and we don't want her to blame him. She is quite anxious. We have bones to lure her outside but she's not getting shut out there. Its so hard - the needs of a small boy versus our need to keep the dog calm about Mr. J. These are the first visitors we've had to the house since we came home from hossy.
