Hi everyone, hope you're all well and looking forward to First Birthdays!! How exciting!

Richelle, I'm about to put S onto cow's milk for one of his feeds. We use S26 too... Woolies was out recently but managed to get some in Coles. My nephew self-weaned at 11.5 months and my sister put him straight onto cow's milk (he was b/fed at the time, she didn't see a point in doing the formula thing for just two weeks) and he's just fine. So I think Kailee will be OK. I've already been giving S a bit of cow's milk as a drink but I water it down a little for him... maybe you want to try that to start off? Especially if she's getting constipated. Just an idea, anyway! Good luck!

Cass, Seb hugs my legs too - very cute! I think he would like to be walking but crawling is just so much easier so why bother LOL One day soon perhaps...

Cass_blob - 13 year olds are just so frustrating, aren't they? All the rain up there, I can hardly believe it. We could use some more over here, you know - so just send it over if you want! Hope your gall stones are not giving you too much grief.

Karina, good work on getting your job parttime! Fulltime work is just so... full-on. I don't know how people do it. I've decided that once this baby (the one inside, not the one outside!) is 1, I'll try and do two days a week. My MIL will be over here by then and she's keen to look after them.

Sarah, glad Ari is settling into daycare, it must make going to work a lot easier for you. Hope the weather is settling down for you as well. I haven't seen the forecast for a few days so not sure what it's like for you up there, I guess you just are glad you're not in Mackay?!

Mel, it's hard making the decision to be at work, isn't it? I missed S so much when I went back... and he wasn't even that old. Now that he really has his own personality it would make it that much harder. But it IS handy having the extra income! S is stubborn too. Does Cooper bite? Sebastian has started to bite me when he doesn't get his own way!! Cheeky! I guess when you can't talk back you're limited to how to get your message across, right?!! (Working on him getting through this stage quickly, though!)

Ali, Sebastian pretty much says mumumumum dadadadadad as well and then chatters away - and sings to himself! He also likes to "read" his board books to himself - turns the pages and tells himself some kind of story. It's very cute. But like Emy, he doesn't shut up. Can't imagine where he gets that from

Anyway, it's almost 10 and he'll probably be up at 4, if not beforehand. He's getting MORE teeth! Is there no end to them?!! He has 6, not sure where the next ones are going to come from.

Have a good weekend!
