Wow you girls can chat!! At some stage there I was really starting to get worried with the things you were saying!

Kate – Sorry to hear you are having a tough time again. Hopefully the RCH session will really help. I agree with Vanita about Kelse copying Rylee but you said you don’t think it is that so I’m not sure. Having to deal with ‘x’ is the last thing you need, hugs to you Kate. You could always e-mail us if you want to vent about ‘x’. My BIL & SIL use the word ‘pop off’ for fart. Not for me though. We don’t have a word except we say ‘excuse you’ to Amy and used the word ‘pooooo’ when my brother was at our place farting. Amy started calling him ‘poo’ after that and she waves her hand in front of her face. I am definitely interested in going to the Mattel outlet. How cute Kelse saying ‘please’ what a good girl.

Brooke – Fluff for fart, I though we were the only ones that used that. Won’t be using that one either. It sounds like Maya is ready for TT. Maya and Amy seem so similar with their talking and mannerisms. We bought a toilet seat but then bought a potty which is referred to as ‘Amy’s toilet’. She is pretty much doing everything in it on her own now which is good and we go through about 2 nappies in 24hrs. We were looking at the expensive potties that look like camping toilets but ended up buying a cheap one which is fine. Amy is still going to bed at 9pm and gets up at 9am and has been doing that for close to a year. Her feeding/sleeping times are based around my working full time so I play with her for 4hrs every night. She has been having only an afternoon sleep about 2-4 but has recently been going down in the morning instead. It is great that the cod liver oil is working for Maya, it does stink though! A doctor would probably never have said to give that to her.

Vanita – LOL at Dion being 17 when he is TT, that is a slight exaggeration don’t you think! He will probably pick it up fast because of his bigger sisters. Hope Dion is a happy boy again now. Has Chris been away lately to fight the fires? My BIL just got back and he is exhausted. They are getting some more help from the US, it is scary how serious these fires are. I hope Chris likes his birthday present.

Hay – Sorry to hear you are all sick. You have had a bad run of it and you live in the cleanest, country air. The rest of us live in towns so maybe the pollution is helping keeping us well. Hope you are feeling better. Do you still have ‘cow duties’ when you are sick or do you get time off?

Bec – That’s funny that Jonah was under the bed but it wouldn’t have been funny at the time! We downloaded Happy Feet and Amy liked the songs. Just went and played in the playroom for most of it. Good luck for Ben for Friday! A game show junkie is a good thing and he did well on Deal.

Rach, Viv sounds like she is doing really well with her skating. You could have a National or International champion on your hands!

Deb – I hope you got your homework done, you do seem to have a lot on especially with the move coming up. Make sure you get plenty of rest.

Hi Bel and anyone else I have missed.

We had a busy weekend, farmers market on Sat morning can’t remember Sat afternoon 50th Sat night which Amy had fun. Market and a horse show yesterday. We bought a cubby from eBay last week and it has a carport. I have to stop buying toys. Some of you have seen our rumpus/playroom, well it was full so we took out 4 large boxes of toys to make room. I have seriously gone too far with buying toys and DH says we could open up a toy library. Amy has her 18mth MCHN visit today and her vacc tomorrow. Yesterday she fell asleep with a water bottle in her mouth, it is a normal one with a pop top kid of lid and she was so cute. She is saying ‘set’ ‘go’ after I say ready when she is on top of the slide. CD 22 toady, maybe testing on Wednesday – 10DPO.
