Tash - thanks for the info on helmets - I didn't realise they had infant sizes. We'll look tonight when we go shopping for another present for Bella because he insisted we give her the couch we got for her birthday, because he couldn't bear to hide it from her. He is such a baby...

Kel - Bella kisses and hugs her "babies" all the time (Speedy the turtle, the Glow Worm, a little doll she has). She is soooo affectionate! MIL has bought her a cabbage patch doll for her birthday. I'm sure she'll love it! She also loves music - Bella and Jem should get together for a bit of a baby disco I reckon! How cute would that be - two babies gettin' into the groove??!! lol Glad to hear you've stayed in contact with Anne and glad to hear all is well! We're not sure what else to get Bella either. She LOVES the bike we got her for her birthday and cries when we take her off it - not sure if that's a good thing or bad...! I know you will think of something awesome and we'll all be saying "I wish I'd thought of that!!".

Kym - I'm sure I will be fine. I'll be working in the same department as my sister although I'll be working on a separate project. In fact, there are only two or three people I don't know in the department, so it'll be just like I've been on a really long holiday! It'll be pretty full-on so I hope that makes my days fly, so I can get back to my babies. I will also be finishing at 3.30pm most days, so it'll be daylight when I pick them up - not dark like it used to be for Bri.

Gotta go - we've got to take Bri to school, have a sleep then go to child care again for more "orientation"!
