So excited, just bought myself a few new nappies! (from Sarah of course!) With the warm weather I can get the clothies dry in no time and it's saving us loads of money. Which is good because when we move into our new place things are going to be tight!

Yay for Oskar's new tooth! I love how they are starting to interact with the world around them. Sebastian is enamoured with the pets, and today I tried to show him a caterpillar but he just wanted to grab it so perhaps we should stick with big animals for now!

Sarah, AF still hasn't showed up for me although I'm now fairly sure I'm not pg. Kind of a relief actually since we want to have another but I think it may be just a little bit too soon. Around 20 months I think would be good. I may have to talk my DH into a vasectomy later on as well... years upon years of taking the pill just doesn't appeal.

Karina, I'm so with you - all our babies are lovely. There was a baby stolen from the maternity hospital near our house today (don't worry, they got her back safe and sound! Phew!) and when S and I went out in the pram, two different women stopped us to look at him and say how lovely he is, and tell me that they'd found the kidnapped baby!

Rachel, I haven't even ventured into the shops yet. I'm hoping to get some of the stuff online. I'm buying presents through Oxfam for my sister and BIL since they're going overseas and don't need the extra stuff to take - you know, how you can pay for something for a village or a school and then my sister will get a card saying "Bec bought a goat for a family in xxx on your behalf" Does that make any sense at all? Hope you know what I mean.

Shell, S is big on DADADA as well. You know the only time he says "Mama"? When he's in bed and wakes up crying and upset! Typical!

Cass_blob - wow, what is going on with the car! What a drama! Hope you've got your original one back and it's fixed up properly. I can't understand how people can live with themselves, doing business like that.

Not much news here. S seems to be having some trouble with his second front tooth, it's bothering him a bit more than the others, but it's coming through OK. He really wants to crawl but is finding that he can also get places - fast! - by rolling, so does that most of the time. I'm trying to pack stuff up slowly as we're moving in two weeks' time! Eeek! And my "novel" is supposed to be finished tomorrow, but I don't think I'll make it! I've got to 30 000 words and it's supposed to be 50 000 and I can't see me doing that much in a day - not with a 9 month old and a 32 year old to take care of!!
