Hi!

Well we've had 3 good nights now. Poor Louis was so tired though and I think thats why he's waking for a bit of a cry in the first couple of hours but he's been sleeping through until around 6-7am. DH had the day off today and gave me another sleep in so that was great but I've been flat out with work - grrrr.

My sister is going to look after Louis for me on Tuesdays after the holidays so I can go back to teaching for a couple of hours. I wasn't going to but it would be handy for the extra $$. We need all we can get at the moment and it's only a couple of hours. It's just with all the paperwork I feel so busy sometimes.

Louis had his check up today and all is well. He's still on the 25th percentile for weight and height so he is little but in perfect proportion. He weighs 8.2kg now! She was happy with how he's going and said she wouldn't be surprised if he's walking when we come back at 10months!! I hope not !! hehe. Also some of the things he's doing is at 12m level so thats cool - he has a pincer grip (??) and can point at noses hehehe. Anyway, enough of my being a silly mum....

Tracey - I'm so upset with the nominations!! I voted to save Jamie and Katie and evict David. He's spoiling all the fun with his maturity - hehehe.
Sorry you had a bad day with Jorday. Good luck at the specialist I hope he's all ok. I dont' envy you on the pap smear. I had mine at my 6w check up as I figured they would already be down there - hehe.
I love watching Louis' video. It's hard to remember them when they were so small! I feel like I wished it away a little because I so didn't know what I was doing. At least I get to have another try - hehe.

Linda - I'm sorry your having a bad time of it - I know exactly how you feel. I think you'll come to the end of your tether and that's when cc can really work. I know you don't want to do it and neither did I and I honestly couldn't believe it would be the only solution but with it working so well with Louis I just don't know anymore. I always used to wonder the same about what was wrong - but with Louis at least - there must be nothing wrong and he can sleep through if he wants. I think he was just so used to us coming in all the time. We just left him 5min at a time and it still took a few days but it really has worked. The worst time it took 30min and after that it quickly reduced down to 10min then just once at 5min. Now he's sleeping through. Just tell me to shut up if you don't want to hear it....

Kerrie - Poor Jess! I hope she's feeling a bit better now the poor little thing.

Kell - It must be a relief that the Il's are gone -hehe. Yep - sometimes dh's just need a stern word - hehe.

Nikki - I'm so sorry to hear that Chantelle has been sick as well. I bet you're so tired I hope she's feeling better soon.

OK - sweet dreams everyone!
