Well hello again!

Has been a rather quiet weekend and Matt has tomorrow off so we should get some quality Mummy and Daddy time!

Matt bought a DVD recorder with his birthday money so he's been busy playing with it but I don't think he's recorded anything yet. I wanted to borrow my nephew's Wiggly Safari video that I bought him a couple of years ago and copy it but my brother (who I thought would know how) doesn't know how to do it! I've been scouring the shops and now Steve Irwin has departed it's as rare as hen's teeth!! :eek:

Speaking of which my neighbour was taking her little girl (18 months) to Wiggles World today as apparently they're playing live during these school holidays. I texted her and asked her to buy me one JIC they have it! Doubt it though!

Tummy Time: Aleise hates it too and I've had to tell daycare ladies not to do it 'cause I have been gradually getting her used to it. she's fine with rolling from side to side and can actually roll back on her own now.

Solids: The Child nurse we saw last Wed reckons you don't start solids until 6 months but I told her a paed started my friend's little boy at 4 months 'cause he had severe reflux. She reckons he was "Of the old school and misinformed". Honestly how can a nurse know more than a child specialist?? Some nurses are know it alls! - oh I don't mean the June Mum in here who's a nurse of course - just this chick!

Update: Aleise has been grabbing toys that I offer her and playing with them. A baby book I got from the library said at this age (4 months) they overshoot and miss the toy when offered - well not her! Also playing games of poking out tonges amuses her immensely and she copies me - its soooo cute! We've started having baths with her too and thankfully no toilet mishaps (yet!). She's also been very vocal and loves making a racket while we're still in bed. Thankfully she woke at 6.30am this morning and no earlier 'cause it was my shift!

Simone and Ceecee good to see you back in here! Sorry to hear about your FIL CeeCee and hope he gets better soon. My mum is French but I don't know much at all - except swear words

Bath: Take you up on the offer to hire Verity's housecleaning services! Seaworld is my favourite out of the 3. Haven't been to Wet N Wild and I'm sure by the time you come up this way you'll need to go to cool off! We had 30C yesterday and summer isn't here yet! :eek:

Who was it who was having probs with baby hammock not working??? Feel for you darls and maybe she just wants attention?? Aleise has taken to whinging when we put her down and she wants an instant "pick me up or else" tanty! have you tried the bath, feed and bed thing? I've got JJ Bedtime bath and even spongebathing Aleise does the trick!

Ohh.. just read post about Amanda's son - Kailen.. hope he's okay Amanda and tell him Neeny's had operations (tonsils out twice) and operation to get her baby out and she didn't die! And of course c/s is more intense that grommits!

Well its getting late - will try to log on tomorrow. Oh and KL great to see you back in here.. take care darls! *Hugs*

PS> Forgot to mention brother's future MIL died last night - she was only 56 but the family knew it was coming as she was battling cancer. Said prayers for her in church and all even though I never met her. Hope that future SIL will let my brother visit us a bit more now - she dominates his every move.. long story! Nigtie Night everyone!
