Crikey!

You lot can talk!

Rosehip Lady Fairy: Thanks! It's not my birthday though, although I'm happy to take a bonus birthday! I'm going to tell DP that he forgot! naughty man! My b'day is not till 6 Jan.

Michelle: I think Quinn is trying to say "ball" he sys "Bor" when he plays with his soccer ball - or wants to play with it and he says Muma everytime he wants milk How exciting going to Thailand, wish i was going too!

Cate: Poor you - sounds like an awful situation to be be in - I think a counselling session or two just to see what it's like is a good idea. Also the thirsty tired thing CAN be an indication of diabetes, although I'm with Kel, it's probably just stress and exhaustion. Being a mum is such hard work! Especially when you add all of the other stuff you're doing right now!

Tashie/Jayne: Quinn had his 8 teeth at just before 7 months, he hasn't got anymore since. DP had 16 teeth at 10 months so Quinn has a couple of weeks to get 8 more if he's going to catch him (Gawd I hope not!!!!!!).

Re: public floor crawling...nope - I don't let Quinn on the floor in public like restaurants/shopping centres etc, he's too fast and grabby, he wants to grab everything and climb on everything and put everything in his mouth, obviously at places like gymbaroo etc I do...but agree with Michelle on the shards of glass and all sorts of stuff on floors.

re: Food. Quinn has either Quinoa cereal or buckwheat cereal for breakfast with fruit - usually mango or banana, he had blueberries yesterday. And a piece of spelt toast with flaxseed oil on it. Then at lunchtime he has veggies with Quinoa or whatever grain I am making at the time - all sorts of veggies - mushrooms, pumpkin, beans, silverbeet, carrot, zucchini...then in the afternoon he has more fruit - usually watermelon or pears or an apple or mango then the same for dinner as he had for lunch. Sometimes he will have more spelt toast during the day if we are going for a long walk in the pram and he is getting a bit irritable. And yes I know - I am a major food hippy!
