Starry - Im so sorry to hear your sad news hun. This year will be our first Christmas without DH's pa who passed away a few days before we found out James was a boy and it's going to be super tough. to you and your family.

Have fun HJ!!!!! I use Gaia stuff for James and sometimes nothng at all, but I keep him well moisturised all the time. Same with Isabelle because she used gets a bit of eczema. Dermaveen is great, all the J&J stuff and also Huggies bath stuff has nasties in it that smell great but they dry the bubs skin out terribly if they are prone to a bit of eczema. There are lots of nice ones out there, a bit more expensive but worth it. Ive used Keri, Gaia, Aromababy (we use their barrier balm for nappy rash and it smells divine) Avado and Emu Oil.
Also - I saw the CUTEST outfit for a baby girl at Target yesterday - it was a little red puffy dress with matching knickers - too cute! I would have bought it for Izzy if it came in a 1!

Olivesmummy - We have the Fisher Price one of those swings and it is great. We used an insert from Ikea for Izzy when she was 6 mths old when she got it at Christmas last year. As long as bub can sit up unaided and can support their own head they can use it! They are great!

Hollye - I just posted a few new pics! I love your little dress on Mia - too cute!!!

Amanda - Yay for the great sleep but I hear you on the bb's. They do settle quickly though hun. Mine have stopped waking me now thank goodness. Its been around 2-3 weeks.

Hello to all Ive missed!

Off to do who knows what today ladies! I might do some more shopping! I went to a lingerie party with a friend last nght, James was hilarious in a room full of girly girls, he farted and burped all night! Good to get the wind out though poor love. I was so jealous of all the beautiful bras and knickers - I've been in maternity bras for 2 years now and will be for at least another year or more til James finishes feeding. Ah well!

I can't wait for James' 8 week check - Im sure he has passed 5.5kgs now!! Such a big man, people can't believe he is only 6 weeks old!
Ok Im off to shower etc! have a great day all!
