Oh Jo i can relate... it's so tricky with a toddler and a newborn... if I didn't have my nearly 12yo DD to help me, especially when i need to prepare dinner of an evening, I would seriously be struggling to cope. Verity knows that the only way she is guarenteed to be able to watch Neighbours without me interrupting to ask her to do things is if she is nursing Niall... so it works for both of us

Just got back from PlayGroup/Shopping/Visiting neighbour. Lovely cool but sunny day. Great to get out... should nap now... Candy: I can co-sleep but only just; I know what you mean: I worry about smothering the poor little guy... so I only sleep very lightly, but it beats getting up completely and listening to him cry... he settles pretty much immediately when I bring him into bed.

Nic: Love that parka: I've been looking for a similar one for Verity! LOL She so wants one with "fur" around the hood. Gorgeous smiles

Okey doke... feed time... Niall's stirring in the pram here beside me... back later girls.
