    Oh Kas, that's really interesting. The swim school we go to uses varying numbers of bubbles to give less/more support and they seem to be taking them off the kids once they can 'swim' without them, or decreasing the number of bubbles bit by bit. Atm Lucy doesn't use anything. One of the reasons for using the back bubbles might be because the kids are in the pool without Mum/Dad once they're confident enough. Who knows. I'm kind of looking forward to Lucy using them 'cause it means she can get the hang of moving around without me propelling her. How did you transition Brad from being held to moving around on his own?

    Hi girls,

    well been hectic lately. I have booked Tayneesha into daycare once a week she starts on thursday so that i can getthings organised for bubba #2 and also so that i have a break on my hands when bubba #2 arrives as it is hard for us as we have no family where we live etc, so we have no other choice at the moment. Anyway had a look around the daycare and it is great i am very impressed and best of all it is accross the road from us, a brand spancing new one with new everything!!! Yeah! Nappies, food all of it is included in the price of $55.00 per day!

    Anyway enough of that babble, Tayneesha is stil not walking, crawling around like a speed train but stands alot by herself now and wants to walk. She is speedy gonzalous on her walker thats for sure!

    I have not put her into swimming lessons yet, should i be? She goes into our pool at home heaps and loves it, she kicks her legs and arms while i hold her under the belly and all of that but i have not put her head under at all. Maybe i should start her?

    As for hats as well, does everyone elses little ones pull their hat off! I have tried everything to elastic under her chin you name it and she still pulls it off. I use sunscreen as well though but i woudl love it if she kept her hat on at least! Any ideas:frown:

    She is going to bed during the day now by herself, i just put her in the cot and she will settle herself, Yeah, good for me with #2 on the way! At night though still has to have mummy but i can rock her and cuddle her for 15-20mins ( i like to do that) and put her in the cot awake (half and she will settle. My only prob at the moment is she is waking up at 5.30am in the morning now!!!:eek: What is with that, she sleeps through from 7.30-8pm till then.... Why Why Why?

    Yeah EMZ on your new job and for giving abby finger food!!!

    Jimsteph - i hope all gets better with DS #2 Tayneesha seems to be ok now, i think it was more to do with teeth than anything. She still isn't that keen on meat though, she is still healthy and happy so not too concerned at all really! Daycare might help put in the department..Lol Hope you had a great long weekend as well, sounds like you would have its good to have a break now and then!

    Everyne else - Hi all, hope everything going really well with Bubs and they are all progressing into little toddler angels!!! Lol

    Well best be off talk later
