Hey everyone,

Well today didn't turn out as I planned! So much for my big shopping spree. I woke up this morning with a sore throat and body aches. I still went up to the shops because I had to pay some bills but no Big W. Oh well, the sale is on for another 2 weeks so I'm sure I'll get there one day. I did manage to buy some very sexy lingere from Bras n Things but with the way I feel at the moment I probably won't even get to wear it. Might have to celebrate Valentines Day on the weekend. LOL sorry TMI!!!

Megan - I still give milk first but because Oliver is breastfed he tends to have another little drink after his solids anyway. I would still be giving Lucas his formula first at this stage.

Nicky - glad to hear Lach is ok. Can I ask what moisturiser you are using on his skin?

Danni - that's great Oscar is going to bed earlier for you. Oliver has always gone to be at 7:30/8 but the last few nights it seems he has been finding his second wind and wants to play when it comes to bedtime!!

Jess - your secret garden sounds amazing! I'm really sorry that you are feeling lonely. Please don't apologise either and it doesn't sound silly at all! These are your feelings so you should never have to be sorry for them. I probably haven't been keeping up very well, but you have just moved haven't you? Are you living far from town? If you have msn you can add me if you like. I don't really have a lot of friends where I am living and no family. I've met a few girls on here recently from my area and am starting up a playgroup soon with them. Is is possible for you to do something like this? Oh and BTW I hope you got a photo of your little man this morning!!! What a way to wake up hey?

Rebecca - I hope Xavier starts sleeping better soon and that your cold gets better. I am definietly rethinking the whole yoghurt thing. I have been googling heaps and have found so many different opinions on when to introduce it. I'm not giving it to Oliver anymore as he just throws it up. Will wait a month or even two and see how he goes then.

Mel - Hi, hope the studies are going well. How did your meeting go today?

Sara - lol at Kaetlyn licking the bin! When I read that it reminded me of when my nephew, who is now 9, was a toddler he used to lick everything!! He would walk past a shop - especially the butchers - and lick the window!! Instead of a kiss on the cheek when you saw him, you would get a big lick up the side of your face! It was hilarious, for everyone but his mum!!

Well I think I might go and have some panadol lie down in front of the tv until it's time to do the school run.

Raels and Oliver. xo
