Hi again!

Well its a big change from yesterday here in Brisbane - raining, cold and miserable whereas yesterday it was about 24C and nice and sunny! I know we need the rain but I don't like cold weather that goes with it.

Can't be online long as Aleise's next feed is due so she'll start screaming any minute - although mum's here to warm up the bottle if she does!

Oh yeah- bottlefeeding doesn't guarantee your baby sleeps all night - 2 nights ago Aleise woke up at 3am and I made Matt do that shift! Probably though 'cause she didn't have a full bottle at bed time the night before. However most nights she's in the land of nod at least 7 hours straight.

Amanda and Jo: You free to meet up on Friday 15th in the city? I have an appointment at 10am so maybe around 11am if you can? Email me if you are interested: neeny1870@hotmail.com oh and of course if there's anyone else in Brisbane who I may have missed here - drop me a line.

Bath: Seaworld is great - its been 12 years since I was there last and a pity I haven't seen the polar bear - who's been moved to Alaska now I think. Gold Coast is only a 45 min drive from here so we could catch up if you do come this way!

Rory: I can't wait to go back to work too darls.. I'm going back end of October even if I can't get daycare for 2 days that I work (in process of trying to finalise it) 'cause our mum's can help out until we get the spot. Besides I miss my financial freedom and family allowance isn't much! Aleise seems fine with the day care at the gym - even though she's there only 1 hour a week - she doesn't mind who picks her up as she's really a "people" baby. Apparently I was like that so she gets it from me!

Nic: Don't feel bad about Nixon's fussing - being a BF baby can't be the reason either 'cause Aleise threw a big tanti at the baptism lunch and it took a good 10 mins to settle her. However I think she may have been overtired. MIL's attempts of settling her by jiggling her up and down didn't help Needless to say I took her back and calmed her down! This is ONE reason why I'm keen to get daycare rather than have her look after Aleise. Not to mention the lectures I'd cop!

Can't think of much else to write - take care all and will post again soon.

Neeny xoxo
