Amanda - I'm actually quite looking forward to meeting this little monkey and know that all my boys are blessing and are here to teach me about myself, I think.
What a beautiful way of looking at it. That is so true. Glad the birthday gathering was fun, your cake is fantastic as always.
Maya - how is that Big Mac going down? Bet you feel like celebrating now, exams over. YEAH. How do you think you went? Looking forward to a bit of break now?
Nic - I bet Nixon misses his daddy, but that doesn't help you much! Hang in there, hopefully DH is home soon? Nixon will probably be a perfect angel when he gets home.
Tali - I love Berwick! Its so pretty and there is lots around you - good shops, restaurants, schools etc. You are doing very well with your heater. I am such a cold fish, my heater is on all the time and I can't go to bed without my electric blanket on. Fountain Gate is pretty good, has lots of shops. I haven't been there for a while. I actually like going to the shops either by myself or with ONE of the kids (not both lol!). Chelsea is like a little adult these days and wants to sit down at the sushi shop and have lunch. The toy dog sounds cute, I'm sure she will love it. Congrats on the anniversary, I'm sure you'll find somewhere yummy to visit. Chelsea used to take her nappy off all the time, so I bought some masking tape and that did the trick. Masking tape is harder to get off than sticky tape. You might want to invest in some, saves washing the sheets. Marley doesn't say too much, still alot of babble. You could always go and visit the maternal child health nurse in your area and ask them. Chelsea always forgets what she did in class, sometimes I think she just can't be bothered talking or telling me about it. She asked me one day why I always ask her about her day! I would not take that as being a problem. The teacher has made her observations in a pretty quick time, only 3 days. He is at a new school, making new friends. It will probably take him some time to adjust. If you want peace of mind, maybe take him to a GP. ADD kids tend to be very aggresive and hyper and I don't think Zayden is like that from what you have described? Try not to worry, its probably just normal behaviour.
Marley has started hair pulling! She nearly rips Chelsea's hair out she pulls so hard. Poor Chelsea was in tears the other night, it must have really hurt. I've been telling Marley that she hurt Chelsea and that is not nice, go and say sorry. She walks up and gives Chelsea a kiss and cuddle, then laughs at her. Cheeky monkey!!!! She is such a devil sometimes. Anyone else got a hair puller? And if Chelsea is not paying attention to her, she will pull her clothes to make her follow. I think she is giving payback for all the times Chelsea stepped on her and squashed her when she was a baby.
Better get back to work!
