I'm glad I'm not the only one still finding it hard to leave Monkey! Wow Lisa, that is incredible! But good on you for doing what feels right for you and Harrison.

I'm cool with day care now, and after last sat night's wedding success with MIL, am starting to feel more confident with her too..... but I still find night outings the hardest.

Have fun on holiday to NZ, Kel! I'm sure Jemima will be fine on the plane, she'll probably just wander up and down the aisle making friends!!! Monkey has always been pretty good on planes - even when we did the 3hr flight to and from Cairns, she wasn't too bad, just had a little time on each flight where she was bored/tired etc.... But that was also before she could get around on her own, so she was frustrated on our laps the whole time....

Just have to tell you all something funny.... Monkey is now starting to say "no" (by shaking head, not the word) appropriately to questions I ask her, like "have you done a poo?" She'll shake "no" if she hasn't and just look at me or point to her nappy if she has - how cool!

But the funniest one is when I ask her if she's got any teeth coming!! Occasionally I stick my finger in to check, but she just shakes her head when I ask her "any teeth today darlin'?" Very funny!!! Her expectations of her getting teeth are obviously as low as mine are now......
