Mel - got to love melbourne weather looks like everyone is in for bad weather atm queensland is all over the place atm we are ment to be getting rain soon. but it has been so hot building up that I think it might bring a storm with it. poor DH is working out side in out back qld in 40deg heat with no shade apart from the shadow the huge trucks cast, he now loves night shift so it will be a bit cooler.

may was missing the first sound of her words ie instead of CAT it came out DAT instead of PATH in came out BATH and so on, she picked it up from DS but as he was my 1st and I am with him all the time I didnt notice that he did it until his teachers picked it up 1st in melb kindy then again in darwin and now here but all we get is to wait on a list we will go private went we move again. it was hard to pick up with may as I was used to DS doing it but as I drop off DS at school every day and I have to take him to class ( still want go by himself Dh and I joke that I will still be walking him and may will run to class herself ) but his teacher told me that may had the same problem I was amazed that I had missed it again but as she wasn't in the school system yet she was seen within 6mths.

I too talk too much in the car and have a really bad habit of singing in the car and when you drive from here to cairns it can drive DH mad. Once we were driving from Darwin to melb and the whole way there I would talk to DH and he wouldn't answer me and I would crack it at him and he told me that I mumble and he cant understand me. Anyway when we got there he had to have his medical and the found out that he has lost 30% hearing it his left ear, and that why he thought i was mumbling he just couldnt hear me. at least now I can sing my heart out.

bath- as I was one of 7 you do have to learn to cope and to make yourself stand out ( I use to cry alot) so maybe that what he is doing just trying to get a bit of mum and dad time, maybe one of you could give him some one on one time and see if this stops the early nights. what time is he wake up, must be early if he goes down so early

dinners ready must go and help out DS has already greated the carrot and cheese so I better go and do my part.
