Hey mooshie! IKWYM about the ttc threads. I really hope it happens soon – it’s easy to get obsessed about it. Sending lots of babydust your way. Wow at Lani knowing forty words! Charlie still only says Mum, Dad and Bub, but he makes attempts at car and bath now. A lot of the boys in my family were late talkers, so maybe that’s what he’ll be. I bet when the new baby comes he’ll start talking heaps and influence No. 2, who will probably never shut up! I don’t envy you being worried about Jay – I’m sure he’ll be fine and it’s good that he doesn’t seem to have too man problems with starting. And don’t worry about not keeping up with the threads. At the moment I can only really check twice a week if I’m lucky, and I still manage somehow… most of the time!

Poor little Lily with her sore legs, Tegan. I hate needles too, so I can’t imagine how much bubs must hate them. Glad to see that it went well otherwise though.

Mel – sorry to hear about you having to move, but I’m sure it’s what’s best for you guys atm. Hope you work things out. Excellent news that your new place has a pool! Eliana will love it. I have been warned about those painting poos – luckily we haven’t had one yet, but I won’t speak too soon!

Hi dach! I know what you mean about worrying about having two so close. Do you have family close by to help you out for the first little while? I reckon the first sex months will be pretty tough, but once bub is sleeping through it will probably get easier. I can hear the laughs of the mothers of multiple children now… the probably think I’m so naïve in saying that! Anyway, here’s hoping. LOL at Yasin climbing too. Cheeky little monkey.

Glad Jemma’s BT results were fine, Mitch.

Sorry if there’s anyone I missed. I think I got everyone today!

Have had a lovely couple of days. DH had Wednesday off as well as Australia Day, so we had some nice relaxing family time at home. We went to visit his parents, who are going to India for 2 months on Saturday, to get the lowdown on what we need to do while they’re gone. He has a schizophrenic brother (29) and an epileptic/brain damaged brother (31) who both live at home, so we’ll have to keep an eye on them, even though he has another brother (24) who lives at home too, rent free, with his fiancé. I don’t know why they can’t do it, but that’s a whole different, issue filled story. I don’t mind taking responsibilities that are ours, but his parents wanted him to actually stay there overnight one night a week while they’re gone, even though the other brother is there, and DH has a pregnant wife and child to look after. Gggrrr. Anyway, I will look at it as an opportunity to get to know his brothers better and try to look at things positively. Other than that, I cooked a fabulous seven hour lamb roast for Australia Day, watched DVDs and actually went to bed at the same time as DH! That doesn’t happen very often, so it was nice. Charlie loved his dad being home too – he’s such a boy!

Right, enough rambling. Hope you’re all well.
