Hi Nat

Sounds like you are well and truly ready for your little one to come out, even if you are wondering how you'll cope. I'm sure some of the other girls have heaps of tips, Jen seems to have it all under control with her two little girls and I think I'll be just about the only one in our belly buddies group with only one!

Lucy is channelling all her switching energy into working the video player and TV in the bedroom, she can put her videos in and turn them both on now. There were only a few preschools that started from two years of age, Nat, but I figure she is ready for the socialisation and I'd prefer to send her to a preschool rather than day care. Cost is the same, but she'll keep going to the same place until school and they really do focus on school skills (not that day care doesn't, but it seems more structured). Teaching her another language is also a bonus. It is from 9-3, same as for a school, but we're only starting with one day a week. If she is coping well with that, we'll try and pick up another day during the year (kinda depends on an extra day being available, they're so booked out).

Must go, work to do!
