sheree - dont worry Lachlan sure isn't the only one who still wakes through the night, my family always are astonised when they learn that we still get up to him 1-3 times a night too! I just try and remind myself that they will grow out of it eventually, surely when they are 40 and married with kids of their own they wont call us at 2 am wanting us to come and put them back to bed...! Arch would LOVE to go to a Wiggles concert, my Nan gave him a set of Wiggles cars and he thinks they are tops. I dont blame you for not being keen to got through all that again!!! I will keep my fingers crossed that this little bundle is a girl, are planning on finding out the sex at your morph scan??

leane - great to hear that you had a good sleep yesterday. LOL i can ust imagine Katy's face after the spag bog!

nat - Archie moved into his big bed about a month ago now and has been fantastic in it, sleeps more soundly, the only thing is if we dont shut his bedroom door he wont stay in there, but he's not worried about the door being shut after the first few nights. Those train beds would be awesome i reckon, i couldn't justify spending that much money though, but i am a very tight person! On the dummy thing, Arch is completely addicted to his, if we are at home he constantly has it, if we are out and about and he is occupied he only has a short suck every so often. i used to stress about him still haveing it heaps, til i read the stuff on Comfort items on the CYH website, very interesting. Now my position on dummies is, it isn't hurting him or anyone else for him to have it, s he is welcome to have it as long as he wants, they do eventually stop wnating them, there will come a time at some stage after his 2nd birthday where theere will be rules about keeping the dummy in his bed only, but for now i am fine with him having it when he wants. Have a read of the CYH website, just gives a different point of veiw on the whole isssue.

My Great-grandfather is coming down from Queensland today to stay with my Dad, Dad lives at the beach so im thinking i'll head down there this arvo while its hot here. My Pop hasn't met Archie yet so it will be great. For the first time ever i went clothes shopping for Archie last night and i loved every second of it! He has been living in hand-me-downs and gifts all his life (which is fine!) but i have been hanging out to go and buy him stuff that i like, he looks so cool in his new clothes
