Hey SMYLIE _ Claudia has one of the bottom middle teeth. She is ready to cut the one next door too because her gum is very, very tight atm. I think it' s been giving her some trouble so I've been giving her the frozen teething rings during the day & the bonjela or sedagel at night. Last night she slept from 8 - 3:30 which was a damn miracle. I'm hoping for another repeat of that tonight thank you very much. Everybody is putting down their routines, but I haven't because each day is different. LOL. I separate the breastfeeds to the solids as well, so we both can't be stupid. LMAO. I feed her when she first wakes in the morning, then usually an hour to 90 minutes later I give her some breakfast. Just lately she's mad on melted cheese on toast or it's pear or the heinz organics vanilla custard powder stuff made with ebm, say about an hour or two after that I put her down for a sleep when she is tired & grizzly, which usually by that time she's been up around 3 hours. When she wakes, I give her a feed again & do the whole cycle again with lunch (cucumber sticks & some yoghurt is her fave atm) about an hour or so after the breastfeed & then she goes back for a sleep again & I feed her when she wakes, play with her, cook dinner & put her into the bath, then bed. I don't put actual times in because it's different all the time.
Claudia is pulling herself to standing on the furniture. It's insane because we have hard floors throughout all the living areas! She just wants to get into whatever Jessica is into. It's been hard because I have to make sure now that Jessica isn't playing with a toy that has small parts while Claudia is on the go as Claudia is putting everything into her mouth, as babies do!
We start back at Jessica's swimming lessons tomorrow but Jessica is not well with a cold & Claudia has conjunctivitis! eeewww! Myself & my girls are so rundown it's not funny. We need to go stay on a farm or somethign in the fresh air & detox to get all the germs out. I'm getting lots of coldsores & the kids are getting sniffles but this cold Jessica has is a ripper & I'm pretty sure I have a sinus infection because I feel as though my face is going to fall off when I bend over. I've no idea where Claudia got the gunky eyes from but she is sneezing all the time today so I'm guessing she is getting a gold too! I'm loving the idea of the straw cup, that's hilarious! I'd love to be a fly on the wall with your mothers groups!

TASHIE _ Aw, thanks sweetness. I hope Tobies is okay, it's scary taking them to hospy. Is he ok now? We are going ok, the girls are keeping me busy & I'm not well so we are just focussing on getting better. I've been pretty busy so I haven't really had a chance to think about it much. We spoke last night but I haven't heard from him today. I just got my PC back & all upgraded with Skype so maybe we can talk on Thursday beacuse I'm out tomorrow night for dinner with my IL's. I WAS very teary when he left, but I've pulled myself together. I don't talk about him much to Jessica atm, because she isn't well & sometimes asks for her daddy to lay down with her & I just want her to adjust without him atm, if that makes sense? It's easier on me when she's not asking for him all the time.

well I best be off to bed & get my beauty rest!
Love Jayne
