one of the first phrases Darc learnt months ago was Oops a daisy (thanks Poppy), only hers comes out OO de dais. She must use it like a thousand times a day (in the right context).

I totally agree their understanding is improving. When we were away the other day I was packing out things on the bed and I told Darcy to go and get the nappy off the table so I could put it on her. I didn't indicate the nappy or the table and never expected her to toddle over and actually reachup and bring me the nappy and wait for me to put it on. But she did. So I tohught I'd test the theory and ask her to bring my water bottle. Off she toddled and brought it right back.....funny little sausage.

Sheree I'll swap you a mum for a bit of quiet......

OK I've recovered with 6 arrowroot biccies and butter for lunch (and a diet coke). My interview was for a different branch in the cops. But it is in town which is about 1.5-2hrs travel time for us, and they wanted me to work 5 days/fortnight not the 4 I do and on a rotating roster, not fixed shifts like I do now. Probably OK with someones who's partner didn't work shifts too.

be back shes awake again.....
