Boy a lot has happened in these past few days. It's hard to keep up with you ladies...

Bec: Congrats on the new bub in the family. I love the name Mia. I sometimes miss the newborn stage too as my dd slept more then but then that's all she did, but the way she interacts now is much better. Especialy when she gets the poopies and tells you off!....

Jodie: What a dramatic weekend you had last weekend - poor thing. It's good to hear that things are settling down now a bit re the suicidal lady. Must have been pretty scary stuff tho. And good on the person who handed in your phone. People like that are far and few between these days. It's also good to hear that Shaun is growing so well. I hope it continues well for you.

Tania: you poor thing with the bath incident and your IL's crowding your space and little Jayden's. I think you handled it very well. I would not have been able to be so polite.

Sara: Hope Briley's tear duct clears up. Kaitlyn has the same thing. Sometimes when she wakes her eye is full of green goop and she can barely open her eye. She did have a round of eye drops for it about a month ago, and they helped. Picked up another bottle today..... They also say massage helps, but my dd won't let me near that section of her face. It's hard enough keeping the drops in !!

Shazz: Well done for getting to work on time. I don't think I could do it; going back to work AND getting there on time. I have gotten too used to having the little sleep after the 4:00 am feed.

Sorry if I forgot anyone. Hope you're all doing well and getting the rest that you need.

Well today we went and had a look at the pics taken last week. They turned out okay, but not as well as I had hoped. My dh did not even sit down at the table with me, he stood behind me.... Can you believe that? And he's a VERY tall man, so I felt a little uncomfortable. So there I am looking at the pics and the lady says, you can buy photos individually, or the whole package for $1300. WHAT?!!! There were only about 7 A4 size sheets (actually I think they were smaller), and a lot of the pics my dd had her tongue out. She has a pressure mark at the top of her nose and on her right eyelid, and because she was so upset on the day it's bright red in most of the photos. I asked DH "so what do you think", and he said " I don't like any of them", so I was put on the spot. We ended up agreeing on taking one pic for $70, together with the freebie that was part of the initial deal and went on our way.....

My last few days have been better. Kaitlyn has been feral at night these past couple of nights but has gotten some good day naps in. Yesterday I walked up to the community nurse and had her weighed etc, and then a good friend came and shared some quiche and her great company with me.

Anyway, another long post from me, so I best be off. Still have that housework to do. Did not end up doing it all the other day as I got sidetracked with quilting....

:O)
