Whoa.... I think I've been reading since page 3 of this thread (skimming some of it...)!!!

Yes, I have been gone a while, thanks for thinking of me Tash, and thanks Cate for letting everyone know I'd been away.... not many excuses for this week, other than the fact that the devil has possessed my child and we've had a shocking and exhausting week......

She's not sick, though she does have conjunctivitis which I sat on for a couple of days, but got a/b's for today, so we dont know what's going on, but she is fighting sleep at every possible occasion, but is tired, screaming etc.... you all know the drill!

On a brighter note, Cairns was wonderful! Just a pity I had to come back to reality.... maybe that's whats wrong with Monkey too.... she just wants to go back to live the tropical life!

And a very belated welcome to Brendan's Mum!

Not much energy to write much tonight, but HUGE congrats to you Catherine on the job!!!

I'm sure you're all over this milestone update, but I'll do Monkey's rundown soon; the only really exciting thing she does is talking (mama, baba, dada, bye bye and various other ramblings that I wish I understood) but not as much as Harrison!

Love to all
