Geez I've been a little slack lately...sorry. And there has been soooo many posts since I last posted.
Cam seemed to really enjoy child care. I dropped him there Thursday, I stayed for about 15minutes, but after realising he didn't seem to care that I was there, I went over to try to get a kiss and cuddle goodbye and all he wanted to do was play with the toy It was kinda like 'Oh Mum, can't you see I'm busy here". I rang about 11am, and all was going well, he was still asleep - went down fine. He didn't have a good arvo sleep apparently though, as he'd been asleep for 20mins when a little girl who was put down cried loudly and that was it, guess it happens...oh well- he was still happy.
Both DH and I picked him up and it was so cute. When we walked into the main doors we could here him - kind of a whinging noise. When we looked through the window to his room, there was 4 of toddlers (they combine the nursery and toddlers at that part of the day) and 1 other baby, and they were all walking and playing, and Cam was still in the mix - crawling around - keeping up. One of the toddlers had taken the toy Cam was playing with, so the whinging was more of a 'hey, I was playing with that'. As soon as we opened the door all the kids looked at us, so did Cam, but he continued to try to play. He then showed us the toy he'd apparently been playing with most of the day, a pink rattle thing. Guess I've probably deprived him of pink at home that he probably finds the colour fasinating elsewhere, He was then rather hypo when we got home - making up for lost time with his own toys, haha.
Friday was fine - once again no dramas. So that is a relief. I feel ok with leaving him there now. I was very good and only tears welled in my eyes a couple of times, but I didn't actually cry. I was very lost when I got home, though I've had a cold - with a major sore throat for the last week, so it helped I could try to catch up on sleep and rest.
Unfortunately Cameron caught my cold Friday night - he woke every 2hrs from when he was put down at 7.30pm - but thankfully only needed me to resettle every 2nd wake up (the others he only cried til I got to his door - then it stopped all of a sudden and he was back to sleep). He seems to be a little better regarding the cold, though still coughing. But I think those next teeth must be close cause he has been a little grumpy today and his cheeks are really rosy.
Umm, not much else. We are still doing FF in morning and lunch, then EBM for bed (cause he is still refusing), but my supply has dropped off alot over the last few days, so I'm thinking my expressing days are almost over (this morning only got 60mls).
Well I think thats about it for me for now.
Abb - Sorry to hear about your results...it makes it difficult being forced into making a decision (my cousin is in a similar situation at the moment). With the sleep issues...I quite often have trouble switching my brain off too...sometimes I find counting backwards helps, usually from 200 - I think it just distracts me and helps me relax a litte, though sometimes I get to 1 and need to start again.
Girl - Wow on the head shaving...I could never do that if I had a girl (I've got really long hair myself - almost to my bottom and the thought of shaving my head almost brings me to tears...lol), but I could see Cam having his head shaved one day (DH has a shaved head at the moment).
Jess - Glad your decision to not return to work was made easier...I'd love to have been offered a redundancy at my work...but that's unlikely as they would probably have to pay me too much cause I been there too long . Your not entitled to any redundancy money are you??? It would sure help get your business up and running hey.
Sassy - Glad to hear your friend has decided to keep her baby and that her parents were ok with it (isn't that the way...people usually worry over nothing like that) and it was very nice and helpful of you to give her your books. And yay for you's that Nana spoilt Jayda. I'm sure you've probably mentioned it, but why you going to Tasmania?
Run out of time...will be really quick now (DH has just got home)....
NaNa - How did you find the FDC lady...do you think she'll be able to handle your little man. Wow less then 6 weeks til you travel, how exciting.
MisTree - Good to see you in here again (though I've been keeping up with you on your other threads and fb). Hope Stanks feels better soon...he hasn't had the best of luck health wise.
Nikki - Glad to hear you's are well too - are you also on facebook? Goodluck with the weightloss.
Hope I covered everyone, and hope everyone is well.
I totally forgot. The other reason why I shaved her hair off is because she tends to sweat from her head while I breastfeed her. Mostly due to the very warm weather here in Perth. In 2 - 3 months she will have her curls back.
Three more assignments to go! And exams in June! Time is going fast. Yasmeenia is going to be 11 months. I can't believe it. She is so big now. She wants to get up and walk but is so far standing on furniture, DH or me. I can't wait to have time with her after my exams. Without worrying about anything else. We can use that time to go to the zoo, beach and story times at the library on Wednesday's and Thursday's. She loves it when I read to her. She wants to turn the pages, sometimes doesn't let me finish and turns the page, indicating to read that page.

DH wasn't too happy about it. He reminds me about it almost everyday. But she still looks adorable, I think, Lol. Am not too worried, her hair grows back fast. Luckily, I took pictures of her in a dress before I shaved her hair off. Don't you love picking him up from daycare? I look forward to that all day when she goes there. I love seeing her reaction when she sees me. Making noises of excitement. Trying to crawl towards me. Lol. I also love seeing her with other children. She wants to touch them, tries reaching out to them, and totally absorbed in their world. It's so cute.
Sassy -
Good news about your friend keeping the baby!
Mis-tree -
You are way ahead of me. I have not even made an appointment for Yasmeenia - her 12 month immunisation. Good reminder. I should make a booking now.

Abbie looks like she has about 4 teeth coming at once i wish they would hurry up.
Sassy maybe its because she went straight to bed with it. Not too sure about that one sorry. I am not going to give abbie cows milk in a bottle i will just give it to her in a sippy cup.
Girl YEAH on the exams i bet you can't wait. And i agree it will take not time for her to grow her hair back.
Bec YEAH on daycare that is really great i am glad that he likes it:-)
Yeah i am on facebook add me:-)
Mis tre i am sooooo glad that stanky is feeling better:-)
Hi to everyone i missed !!!!!!!!!!
Have a great day all and talk soon!!!!!!!!!!!!
lmk: yeah i wasnt goign to give jayda it in the bottle either but i thought i woudl slowly introduce it so she woudlnt knwo the taste dif cause i tried her witht he sippy cup and she coudlnt stand the taste of just cows milk. good luck with the teeth. jayda has another bottom one ready to come but it is just enough under the skin to be annoying
Sass- i switched DD to toddler milk and OMG th elast 3 days she has been on it have been hell... She is sooky, crying, throwing tanties, not sleeping... Off to buy the other formula again... No more switching here...
It was kinda like 'Oh Mum, can't you see I'm busy here"
