So many posts! It's been a while since I was online.
Jo - yes, looking fwd to Switzerland but also sad about leaving London... I kinda am apprehensive about having to start all over again and having to find my way around, etc. BUT DH has promised that this will be the last move before returning to Oz, so I feel a bit more energised to make an effort and meet ppl. I have already signed up the kids to a swimming class and am hoping to join the local triathlon club.
Poor Kaleb and the burst ear drum! That sounds so horrible! Poor munchkin! I would have been in tears too! Hope it's all fine now!
Arrrrrrg on the rellos telling you to smack him! What garbage!
Nickbrad - DH is in asset management, as am I. We run our own biz and are basically moving our whole business.
The story of Mackenzie's first poo is so cute! It's weird how excited we get about TT, huh? I am sure all my friends without babies are totally grossed out, lol!
Michelle - we are moving our own business out of tax reasons. Much more attractive tax rates in Switzerland!! And for the business it doesn't really matter whether we are in Switzerland or London as everything is done over the Internet. We could have stayed in London but DH said to me that if we got to Switzerland, we could return to Oz in 5 years, whereas staying in London would double that... so it was an easy sale
Glad to hear Jemma's eye finally cleared up!
Arrrg on the car accident!
Christy - what a stupid suggestion to sedate her! It's not like that would fix the problem!
Arg on the poo everywhere.... so glad Wolf still doesn't know how to take his nappies off
Mooshie - nope, not using any vitamins. I must say I am not a big fan of them... Wolf eats a few fruit purees a day, so am hoping he gets enough vitamins from that... Am glad he likes peas... at least one veggie ...
Well, Zara has been sitting since 4 august (one day after my last post):_ I just sat her up while I was emailing and she didn't fall over for like 20 mins! haven't looked back since... just sits there happily and very rarely falls over. Wolf toppled over a lot I remember but she's really good with either catching or rolling herself instead. I think being skinny helps.
She has not been eating well which is a bit of a concern... she is so skinny as it is! She hardly drinks 80ml... maybe just a small stomach and now that I am weaning her and switching to formula I notice more how much (little) she eats?
Wolf is just chattering away like crazy. He loves to shout "COME BACK!" if one of us leaves the room or "Don't want it" if he doesn't want to eat or have something... lol. So cute. Very demanding little bugger.
Other than that am having a bit of a nightmare with the ILs at the moment re. our nanny. They have basically said that they don't want us to bring her and SIL has said she won't come round and visit us if we bring her and that we are only allowed to visit them if we don't bring her. I am steaming. It's none of their business really how we organise our live and it's not like they would chip in to enable me to run our business or do some sport. SIL hardly ever came round last time we were there and MIL whinges about being the babysitter everytime we ask her to watch the kids, so I am not really sure what they are expecting us to do. My mom thinks it's so rude of them and I am just glad my own mom sees it the same way as me.
