Once again, at work. Moved my desk around yesterday to make room for another filing cabinet seeing as though I have that much work to do these days, so now no one can see what I am doing so thought I would post quickly before getting back into it.

Jovi's hip scans don't cost us anymore since the hospital reopened it's u/s section (it had been closed for some reason), so medicare picks up the tab thank god. The first one cost us cos of the hospital being shut.

I don't think Jovi has any pain with her hips. She's really strong in her legs and constantly wants to stand up or push herself away from you when you're changing her nappy.

The sonographer at the first u/s did tell us it was only a slight displacement that should correct itself over time. So no we're not double nappying her, but she does wear cloth at home usually which would help.

She's over 6kg now which is awesome. Such a heavy little bugger these days, esp. when she won't go to sleep even if she's exhausted and you have to rock her.

Jovi has also been fussing over her bottle lately. I usually get her to drink at least 90mL though (half bottle) and will sometimes give her a bit of food as well just to make sure. Half the time we get her to drink her whole bottle by stripping her off ... she loves to be naked just a little too much. If she had her way, I think she'd like to be naked all the time. Little turd!

Scott is on a waiting list to have his back operated on. He has a bulging disc which just isn't getting any better and as he is sick of the pain and looks after Jovi his doctor agreed to surgery and has put him on the urgent list. Thankfully medicare is going to cover the costs otherwise we wouldn't be able to afford it at all. He'll be laid up for a while and we were told it will take about 6 weeks for full recovery. Luckily I have enough leave up to take it off when we get the call, but I think I will take 4 weeks off and his mum will come over for a couple to help out which will be good.

Work is going ok. Have HEAPS and HEAPS on, but will eventually get through it. Will spend the next month scanning all my applications I think (600+!!) ... how exciting! lol

Jovi's naming day is fast approaching ... so not organised!

Anyway ... that's about it ... will one of these days catch up properly with everyone.
