Kirsty, Fergus sounds really similar to Patrick then. Patrick started talking pretty early.. I thought he'd be a big talker by now but he's doesn't have a huge amount of words. One day.. I can't remember how old he was but it was definitely before he turned one, he looked at our old fish tank and said very clearly 'Look - fish!'
DH and I were both shocked. But yeah, now he doesn't say a lot. His favourite word right now is magpie. He loves the magpies - he has never seen them before (in America)

I'll try to answer all your questions. LOL
I am a returning resident - was out of the country for eight years, so my kids are migrating. They are aged 6,5,3 and 15 mths. We are kind of living on the boarder of Gordon. About 10 mins from Hornsby.

You know what's funny? On Saturday I met a guy named Fergus. I've never met anyone by that name before, and then within a week I hear of two people with that name! And both in Sydney too! Pretty coinsidental..
