Heya Karen!
I hear you re. trying to keep the house clean! I should go and do that now before my DH gets home from his double shift at about 12pm (he's a chef)

Nickers- that's awful re. Nixon, the poor baby. Does he feel hot? It's a very hot night here in Sydney, not sure how it is for you in Melb. Hope he gets a good night sleep and has just picked up a 24 hour bug that is gone by morning! Be thinking of you. (and you're washing!) ETA: sorry just realised you posted this yesterday - how's he doing?

Love My Girls: Yeah was going to ask you re. older childs little bits of toys and things. My daughter has a bit of an odd obsession with doll shoes as in barbie sized, and likes to line them up around the house (she's smart, but weird!!) How do you get the message through to a 4.5 yr old not leave little things lying around? (also question for Bellasmum, and Karen)
We went swimming this morning too, had to put Giorgia in front of "Barbie as Rapunzel" while Ruby and I had a nap!

Amanda - must have been the night for chicken! we had yummy chicken sandwiches today, and DH has promised to make chicken stock.

Ali25 - yeah the bestest thing about your house arrangement is that you know they won't sell it from under you and you'd have to move. Will you have to move far? How cool for DH to bring up Tori in his family home, he'll get flashbacks! Good for you re. Tori at daycare, Ruby has been going one day a week since she was 4 months old (financial neccessity unfortunately) and she absolutely LOVES it. It's great too that you can have her with your mum on the other two days and they can have a great relationship too.
OOO i'm so happy re. your house situation!

BATH - and everyone else who hasn't got it - you can pm me? or nixthings@deletethisbit.hotmail.com

Again to all with sickly bubs - look after the little munchkins and never hesitate to go to the hospital if you want to, better safe than sorry. It's hard when they are so little and can't talk to you yet.

Rory - didn't mean to judge you as a control freak btw, but anyway as Flylady says babysteps! Sounds like your'e going well.

Bellasmum - how are you "coping" with only 2(?) kids at home now? !

Hello everyone else! can you BELIEVE our bubs are so old already?
oh and Jaspen! yay- glad you are back!
