Afternoon Mumas,

well last night we went to see the some chrissy lights... A friend of DP's went to alot of effort and his house looks amazing... We got home at 11 and i fed DD and she slept til 4.20 fed and then i woke up at 9 paniced cos the alarm didnt go off for speech therapy so i had to wake them up and go... Every time they sleep in i have to get up and go somewhere... Speech went well and DS behaved.

DD is getting round so much now... SHes still doing the comando crawl and gets frustrated when she's on all 4s and cant go far... I have some pics i'll add to my FB of her trying to crawl... she grabs hold to what ever she can and pulls her body along...

Our neighbours got broken into yesterday while i was at home... i feel aweful i heard nothing except a smal sound from their alarm... It was like they didnt put their pin in quick enough... well that was when someone broke in it turned out.. They tampered with the alarm. Apparently their alarm was playing up The night i had the knock on the door was the same night they had alarm issues... so i take it they were sussing out our house too... I'm terrified now.... Our alarm is an old one so were looking into getting it upgraded. I want a sensor in the garage so i can zone the house off... SO if they get in there its armed... i cant believe someone broke in to the front door in full daylight smashed in the door and no one seen or heard... I mean i had the house locked up cos it was so hot i had the air on a bit and some music playing to get DD to sleep... but it was only in the arvo... after i heard the alarm... its the 2nd time in 6 months for their house...

NaNa- i'd like 5 hours sleeping... lately were getting max 3 hours at a time. and 45min- 1 1/2 hours to resettle again. I have spoken to DS about his late night snacking... he says he gets hungry and thursty... I have told him were puting locks on if he keeps it up... i'm trying to accomodate his choice of foods to get him to eat more at meal times instead of snacking...

Deancey- Lian sounds like a gem...

Abb- YAY on the sleeping... I wish.. Were stil on 1 x 1/2 jar in the morning and a ful jar at night (well i'm mashing up my own stuff at night most times now) Oh i did buy some of the Rafferty's garden sachets today... something different... I think i got tuna and veges or something... DD is really into different tastes now... she loves helping herself... i tried her on some sticks/wedges of veges the other night... carrots, sweet potatoe, zucchine, i also gave her some cucumber, avoccado, apple (slighty cooked) for lunch today... she loves being able to hold stuff and feed herself. Also on the crawling... not sure if DD will be before chrissy but it wont be long... its so amazing to watch as DS never crawled... He sat very quickly i think it was 6 months and was standing at 7 1/2 months and walking round furniture by 8 1/2months and taking steps unassisted (walking) by 10 months.

Sass- I'm not allowed to call it a chewy sack anymore... LOL DP has a dirty mind... didnt want his princess chewing/eating on asack.... now i call it her chewy net... lol.... i'm buying a sassy brand one next you can buy new nets for them and they have a lid... i have the Tommy tippee one...

Mis- i do the same with pureed peard and apple... put them with the farex or the baby custard powder.

Bec- Good luck with the doc... DD is doing this cough thing but apparently its a milestone also... apparently babies of 6 months start to do a cough to get attention... i never knew that... I have some brauers cough mix i used when DD was few weeks old it worked great...

Nikki- YAY on the chrisco.. Its awesome... We all love it... unpacking everything... Cant wait for mine... its like an early christmas...

BTW~ any one wanting to do chrisco... let me know i'm an agent... i have tonnes off books or i can get one shipped out to you..,. Highly recommend it...

Well best be off... Need to keep the kids amused while DP sleeps...
