Another nice weekend at home for us doing things around the house1 It feels like such a treat to be at home getting stuff done, as before we mvoed we were out every weekend for 10 weeks running. Having said that DH and I are going to drop tori at mum and dads and go and see Harry Potter this arvo and then going back for a Mum cooked Roast mmmmmmmmmmm (mine are never as good). We went shoppping yesterday and bought a new vacuum cleaner and a steam mop, I have white tiles through about 3/4 of the house so I have to be much better and mopping anc vacuuming to keep on top of the grim.

Nic- bummer about missing out on the w/e away.DH and i were going to take Tori away for a few days but we just dont seem to have the time to do it, so we are going to leave Tori for the night at Mum and Dads and have a night in a hotel, we are going to Cirque De Soleil in Sept so we will do it then. I also hope your DH picks up his act when the new bubba arrives.

Julie- Love the new avatar. Spewing about the bank, I would be angry as well, are they just allowed to do that without notifying you? I would be referring all angry calls from tradesmen directly to the bank.

Maya- i hope that Oscar is feeling better today.

Dee- I hope your brood are feeling better today. Good luck with the uni stuff this semester what units are you doing. Dont forget to let me know if you need any help with anything.

Donna- I hope that the morning sickness doesnt get too bad. I was really lucky this time and I wasnt half as bad as I was with Tori, however, I still had days where I felt awful. I said to a friend of mine that it is different this time ebcause I have Tori to focus on, where as last time all I had to think about was myself and my pregnancy.

Bath- How exciting at having the prospect of living overseas. Just imagine what a brillliant life experience it will be for your kids as well. Even though I am teacher and believe in everything that is taught in the classroom, there are some things that they just cant learn there and can only be gained through life experience, being emerged in a different culture, language, religion is a far richer experience than learning about it through books. There is a chance down the track that I could go on exchange as a teacher and work in another country, and I have say that Canada would be my first choice.

Im after some advice, tori has dropped down to 1 day nap now usually about 11:30 she goes down (after lunch) and sleeps anywhere from 1-3 hours (depending on if we are at home or out and about). She goes to bed between 6-7:30 depending on what time she got up from her nap........BUT she is isnt sleep through the night again, waking up at 3ish for at least an hour maybe 2. Not sure what to do to get her to sleep through the night, 2 day sleeps are just impossible she will not go down for a sleep in the afternoon, not even if she has only had an hours sleep during the day. Maybe she will adjust to her new routine as it has only really changed in the last 2 weeks. Any ideas?

Well better go I am being nagged to make the pancakes for brekkie that I promised.
