Hello ladies...

Gosh.. I've been reading the posts via email updates...and I usually read them either 1st thing in the morning or last thing before I sleep and I loved reading about other mums and bubs etc etc then "that thing" happened and it was quite unpleasant.. and yes.. that never happened on this forum before!!!
Hope it doesn't happen again!
You guys are always soooooo supportive and I do come here for support and bounce ideas etc...

Cherryblossom: how funny.... NO ONE (except for those who'd watched the movie) can pronounce Amelie and I'm getting tired.....
Even my hub won't pronounce it the same way that I want it...
My MiL is the worst offender calling her "Emily".
My parents bounce from Ah-melie to Emelie... *sigh*.. what do you think we can do??
My hub just goes.. we'll let her decide on the pronounciation when she grows up...;-)
If ppl can't say Ah-melie.. at least they can say Emelie not Emily!!...
She has a Korean middle name and we're thinking of changing that to the first name and make Amelie as middle name.. .and of course.. my PiL had a go at pronouncing it and yup.. it was a challenge... why why why??! :P
Ah.. it's just tooooo hard!!!
I dunno if I should just give up the fight or keep soldering on...
I keep thinking about ways to nicely tell my in laws that they are calling her the wrong name...but every time I try or see them.. doesn't happen...

Does anyone have the same issue? Hahaha.. prolly not... I had to choose a name that was hard!!

Also we ended up buying trip trapp...I was gonna get $70 love n care one when it was on sale at ToysRUs.. but they'd run out and not restocking as it's being disconnd...
I also looked at getting Ikea one as it had good reviews.. but my bub's small so I needed something w/ 5 point harness to keep her safely in there...
Just after I bought trip trapp I saw a nice compact looking Infa one on sale for $99 at Kmart I think.. I wouldn't have minded that if I saw it earlier!!
Some of the steelcraft & preg prego ones looked too bulky....
Trip trap is so far so good.. We haven't started Amelie on solids yet but we're getting her to sit w/ us at the table when we eat and it's been good so far...but yes.... it's sooooo expensive.. and I feel very guilty about buying something that expensive... (but got 10% off!!)

Queenmab - Happy 6 mths to Punky!!!! Gosh I freaked out when I read your post... I would've had a heart attack too....dear me....my sister used to sleep w/ her eyes open...when we went to camps she used to freak her friends out haha...

Enough from me.... Have a great day everyone!!! *hugz*
