leane - sorry you are not enjoying being back at work, wow, 1.5 hours to get to work, you poor thing, thanks goodness its good money! Hope Katy starts getting better at going to bed, Archie has been the same the last few days again. Well done joining up to WW

kim - oh, a couple of acres on the lake sounds dreamy...hope your Sydney place sells well. i think i will be forever having the 1 child internal debate, but i am happier having the internal debate than having to deal with another pregnancy and child, and i really love the thought of us being a close, happy, well travelled, full of life experience, family of three. Great to hear AF has finally shown, i reckon your body is just telling you to slow down too, shame its not practical to slow down though

Archie has always had his special sleeping toy Tigger "gigger" since he was a tiny baby, i have 2 Tigers that i swap around so Tigger doesn't wear out as quickly, think i might get another one too (i had 3 of them but lost one at the shops once). Anyhoo, on Monday i was browsing at a baby store and there was this rack of gorgeous minky toys all different animals, Archie fell in love with a dog who he has called "woofa" and hasn't been interested in Tigger since, Tigger has been in the cupboard. Well tonight Archie screamed and screamed at bedtime, then i finally clicked, i gave him "gigger" and he gripped onto him and went straight to sleep. Poor kid has probably been stressing about 'gigger' for days!

Mum came over today and wants to have Archie stay at her place overnight, tomoorow and saturday nights! i feel quite anxious about not having him for 2 nights so close together, but i know he loves spending time at Nanna's and of course so does she so i said yes. Hopefully i can relax while he is gone and get some decent sleep this week!
