thanks for all the birthday wishes for bilby
her party was a success, i am so drained now, just want to sleep for a week. it was such a tiny party really, but big for me (to organise and prepare and set up).
Kim, i have no idea how you kept a straight face with the sonographers!!
Nelly, congrats
Vicky - keep us posted.
Christy - maybe funky wardrobes will turn up later in the piece? is there a Sydney "Freecycle" yahoo group? Wow, Matilda at Big School! Hope Jovie likes her childcare place.
i'm about to find out if our CCC will let me continue to breastfeed bilby, now she's two and about to go into PreKindy Room, leaving the Under Two's room at the end of this year. My PND social worker was very adamant that i shoudl NOT be bf-ing bilby at this age, at childcare. but it's the first thing she asks for when i go to collect her. i walk in with her sippy cup and offer her that, but she says no, and asks for a breastfeed. I saw the PND social worker talking to the CCC director today, and they went quiet as soon as i walked thru that part of the building. I don't understand the opposition.
i took in organic vanilla icecream for bilby's birthday at CCC today, i'm trying so hard to take in something healthy and yummy for the kids and the reaction from the workers is that i brought in some weirdo stuff. The kids loved it though.
oh Gigi *pffft* to them yet again! I would actually be complaining about the PND social worker! WT? You are getting joy from feeding Bilby? Why take that away???
As for healthy food, its hard. At Matilda's Montessori, one of the mum's cut a watermelon into a basket shape with melon balls inside it for a birthday. It was beautiful! Another decorated cruskets with things... we had allergy free things, so you had to check the allergies for the room and then could bring whatever you liked. I brought icy poles for Matilda's goodbye day. The fruit ones
Its NOT weird. Its wonderful.
Our new CCC encourages people to bring in cakes *groan* That means my kids get left out of every cake except the ones I make. I may stock their freezer with some cupcakes for Jovie.
Woohoo on a good party Gigi...any pics of it? The cake sounds yummy too! I agree with Christy on the CCC...thats wrong....id keep BF...its what Bilby knows and wants..so do it
Hows the house settling in Christy...is everyone healthy again?
Hope everyone else is going well...anyone heard from Ann and how the twins are going?
AFM: Not much happening here. MIL goes home tonight *huuuge cry* but will be back on the 4th Dec to take the girls to her place for a week (OMG how am i going to let my babies goooo). Im still in awe over my little mans scan....i cant wait to hold him now....of course im so scared cos i have no idea how to care for a boy....eeeek! I have my GD test again on Thursday (will come to you V for help if it all turns out nasty and i have it..LOL).
I better go...the whole house is awake..except Craig and i need to get the girls organised for FDC!
Well it seems im doing something right with the girls....their check up went really well! CHN was impressed with how far Jasmine has progressed in the last 6 months, and loves how advanced Chelsea is and amazed how active and how much a chatterboc she is....so i say thats thumbs up all round!!

Jasmine - 12 months Weight: 11kg (OMG....and thats just from milk and the last 4 weeks small things like yoghurt, jelly, custard...not 'real' solids yet) Length: 78cm HC: 45.5cm
