Hi All,

Wow, once again there has been so many posts since I last posted.

Jess - Cameron also has moments like that, usually when he is overtired - sometimes I miss the tired signs (if I see the tired signs and can get him to bed in time he goes to sleep without fuss, but miss it and all hell breaks loose). Sometimes you just need to let them cry if you've done all you can do (as hard as it might be hey).

Deancey - Glad the christening went well. How did the solids go? Hope you feel better soon, hopefully those couple of days off work will help you recharge.

Abb - Hope you had a nice day watching the DVD with your daughter - was Hamish a good boy for you's? Sometimes it is nice just to vege out. Cameron also likes TV - think most bubs do - someone did tell me though it can make the babies hyperactive, not sure what to believe though, as Cameron seems fine (but he doesn't watch it for long)

Nana - Hope Aadi's sleeping better for you. Cameron has also started laughing and talking, eyes wide open when I put him to bed mainly at night. He'll be tiring in my arms, then as I wrap him in his cot he starts looking wide awake. Luckily Cameron only laughs until I walk out the room (maybe he is excited to go to bed). I hear you on the tradies making lots of noice while bubs is trying to sleep. We had a similar situation with a sales man at our door this arvo talking to my DH and I was trying to get Cameron to go to sleep in his room down the hall (was overtired, as had been a busy morning swimming), this man was so loud, I just wanted to yell out - keep your voice down, unfortunately Cameron did not get that sleep properly (only did 20mins, no where near the minimum 1hr he needs, grr), which meant we had that 'arsenic' hour later this arvo.

MisTree - Sorry to hear bout your XP - fine if he wants to be an idiot and hold a grudge, have it with you, not reduce the child payments and refuse to help the medical bills for his son! On a happier note - Yay!! on Seth's hips.

Sassy - Hope Jayda's better, it is soo much more frustrating when you could almost see that incident about to happen. So jealous of you and your xmas shopping, I haven't really even thought about it (except for Cameron) - I've got so many children to buy for this year, as there has been lots of new additions since last xmas to the family and friend circle. I had also decided to get a fold out lounge thing for Cameron for Xmas, and maybe something for the pool. I also want to get Cameron some sun glasses, but don't think I can wait til xmas.

Well that took longer then expected, I hope I covered everyone.

Cameron had a good swimming lesson today. Notired cries at all this time, think he is really starting to enjoy it. The swimming teacher seemed to favour Cameron a little today (although she is a friend of my cousins), using him to do examples with, which was good. Then after the sales man left we went to Babyco to look at the hi-chair they had ordered in for me - went there on Wednesday, but only had a pink one, i wanted a blue green one. It's an activa made by Jane. It has 3 sitting up levels, a removable tray for easy cleaning and comes apart to have a little table and chair. We put Cameron in it this arvo when we got home and he loved it. Was smiling and giggling and talking - think he felt like a big boy! I have decided to try in on the farax when he is 20 weeks, then will slowly introduce other foods about 2 weeks after that (probably potato and pumpkin and the savoury foods before doing the sweets like banana and other fruits) - I'm so looking forward to it. We got out his spoon while Cameron was in the high chair and pretended to feed him and he would open his mouth way before the spoon was near it - knew exactly what to do and then seemed disappointed when there was nothing on it. We then let him hold the spoon and he did manage to get the spoon to his mouth a couple of times, followed by another attempt, but kinda missed the mark and almost got his eye. It was so cute.

Well it is getting late now, wasn't tired before I started this, but am now.

Bye for now
