Hi girls...I think I'm going to wear that top, I don't really have anything else anyway and as DH pointed out, Grace won't be in black (do they even make black clothes for babies!). We weren't going to take her as I thought that my being upset would upset her, but we have babysitter issues and DH is happy to take her. He said he would hold her - he will be upset but he's not a crier like me so hopefully she won't pick up on his sad vibes as much as me. My mum said she will be ok, she's too young to really know what it will be about anyway.
Sonia - I didn't know you could take them swimming so soon! I can't wait to take swimming lessons with Grace, it will be so fun.
Grace is really working on rolling. She can now get right over on her side and there have been a few times that I thought she was going to get over. It's so cute to watch, she gets so frustrated with herself when she can't do it. If she keeps this up it won't be long before she does roll!
Oooh, Sarah, how scary. I would be beside myself! lol! I hope for your sake that you aren't (unless of course that is what you want and then I hope you are!!!lol!!). We find the peapods fit ok, but they are still leaking, I don't know if i'm not putting the stuffing in properly as that is dry,, almost like she has peed around it!
I assumed they didn't make big boxes of infant size because there is only a kg of overlap and then they fit into the next size up (between 5 and 6 kgs), so they make more money out of you when you have to buy smaller amounts (unless you get them on special!!). Should get another box of crawler seeing that they are on special. Seem to be using more disposable than cloth lately as we are always out and about. The flanalette flats are not cutting it anymore (she almost doesn't fit them), but only have 3 fitted MCNs and one is the bamboozle which takes forever to dry. Going to Adelaide in a couple of weeks and there is a shop there that stocks MCNs that is just down the road from where we are staying so hanging out to check them out for real.
Does this seem weird? Got a phone call this morning from DH ex fiance, whom I haven't even met. My FIL is getting married in a couple of weeks (hence the going to Adelaide) and has invited DH ex fiance (WTF!!! I know). That, I can live with. I knew they were in touch years ago but didn't realise they still were. Now I haven't met her...she wanted to meet me once but DH didn't want to have a friendship with her so never got back to her (isn't that hint enough). She rang this morning as she and her DD are going to the wedding (she lives in melbourne too) and she wanted to know if she could come with us in our car!!! WTF was what went through my head....although I politely said that with DD it would be too squishy - she didn't know that we had a daughter! I just thought that was a strange thing to ask of someone that you don't keep in touch with, different if we did. Is it just me or is that weird?
Have spent that last hour and a half settling Grace in her cot as we are trying to get her used to sleeping in the cot during the day, she finally fell asleep at 1.30 with her feed due now! Won't wake her as she hasn't slept much and I'm sure she will wake soon. Once she is fed we are off to meet Jessica, Aiden and Tate so that will be good.
If anyone is interested, I have put some more photo's onto my website in my signature.
