Morning girls,

Shazz - Aww massive hugs hun. Your family sounds a bit like me. A bit "days of our lives" type of family. Minus the glitz and glam. Christine said....

WE LOVE YOU!!!!

Sheree - Briley can't feed herself with a fork or spoon really well. The other day Brent gave her a spoon and some yoghurt and she was feeding herself. Thats really the only time. We give her a fork or spoon everynight with her dinner or at lunch time but she never uses them. Unless we put something on it for her and give it to her. But then its usually flung across the room! I am just kinda letting her do things like that at her own pace. I am giving the potty training and bottle weaning a bit of a push now though. Esp now that we have Colby. How are you feeling now hun? I suppose you will have your days. Hope you are coping ok hun.

Christine - Good to hear that things are starting to look a little better with your friends DD. Fingers crossed it all keeps coming back as good news. Don't worry about personals. We all have our moments where we can't keep up with them! I do nearly every week!

Leanne - Oh no! I hope you get over that bug quickly!

Elissa - Glad that Archie ended up sleeping through for you! How's it been since then?? Do you think it could have had something to do with his teeth??? Obviously by seeing those newborns it showed you made the right decision about putting off TTC. Good way to be sure! I miss my belly. I miss feeling the baby inside me moving! I'm crazy i know!

Nat - Briley is becoming full-on too lately. We call her Cyclone Briley because of the mess she makes wherever she goes! She just walks around the house pulling stuff out of everywhere. My poor mum normally has a clean house when we get there but when we leave its a different story! I hope your not pushing yourself too hard hun. And i hope what your going through is'nt a sneak peak of what i am going to go through! I count myself lucky that i have a few others that can take the girls if i need to study or whatever. If i get it that is! I am booked in for the STAT in october. Bloody costs $98!! Is the test hard??? Wish my mum would do my ironing!!! It normally takes me a few weeks to convince myself to do mine!

Kim & Vic - WHERE ARE YOU?????? You both have been so quiet. Hope you are both well.

Well we have 2 little chatter boxes here now. Briley is just talking so much now. It really cracks me up. And then Colby started "cooing" properly thismorning. I was sleeping beside her (she was in my bed) and i had just fed her. So i layed her down on her stomach and she just talked away while i was half asleep! It was so cute.

So the 6 week check-up went well. I sealed the deal on contracetption. Their definetely won't be any more babies until at least 5 years. I got the mirena inserted today. Ofcourse i can go and get it removed if i want to but i have'nt decided how long i want to wait until we have another one. If i get into this uni course it def won't be until i have finished it. I really think i want to wait until Briley is in school but. Colby will be 4 by then aswell. Big enough gap i think. But i also really don't want to wait that long. As sick as it sounds, i love being pregnant!

Anyways....

Colby is all good. She has put on 90g since last monday! So she is up too 5.690kgs!

I also found out that i lost 1.5L blood at deliery and not 1L. They also could'nt give me a reason why my placenta got stuck. Just that it happens. And the reason i heamorraged(sp??) to much was because the cord snapped and my cervix was still 5cm dilated which was not letting my uterus contract back down.

Well Briley is ready for bed now. Hope you are all well.
