Hello All - just saw this thread and read it! Haven't been here for so very very long!!!

Looks like lots of you have had bubbas in the past year. Congrats!!!

I spent 2009 working part time and balancing motherhood. Wow - doesn't that tear at the heart strings!

We have a little girl due in Feb 2010 so Will will be a big brother a month before he is two.

Will seems like a little boy now. His speech is amazing - early bloomer in this regard (slower in others). He speaks in sentence fragments but to people's questions re speech, I found that once he got started the number of words just increased exponentially! Modelling and talking constantly to him helped as well. But he is a natural born chatterbox who loves the sound of his own voice.

Glad to read your posts that the second bub is far more relaxing as I have recently gone into panic mode about balancing the two! Love to hear any tips...

Will try to keep in touch - should be easier now I am not working. Looking forward to chatting
