Hi everyone! Wow, it really has really slowed down in here!

We had an interesting night last night. I gave K a bath and as I was drying him he was shivering even though he felt warm and I noticed the soles of his feet, his hands and his top lip were blue. He has been out of sorts so I was a bit worried. DH rang the MCHN line and as I was talking to the nurse I noticed the skin on K's thighs was going blotchy and purple. The nurse told me to take him straight to emergency. I had horrible thoughts of meningitis going through my head. I was in two minds because my instinct was telling me he was OK, but I would also never forgive myself if I didn't act and something went terribly wrong. So we took K to emergency and the triage nurse checked him over, by then his skin was pretty much back to normal and after a few questions she said he looked OK, but we could stay and get him checked out if we wanted to. There was a huge wait, but we thought we'd hang around for an extra 10 minutes in case K's condition changed, then go home. We eventually just went home and K has been fine ever since. So it was a bit stressful, but we're glad he's OK!

Saffi - That's good that L will go into the toddler's room, hopefully it will be more stimulating for him as he gets a bit older.

Mo - I sent you a PM regarding the bassinette earlier .

Becky - Hooray for Liam mastering toilet training ! Well done to you both!!

Kellie - Wow, what a clever girl Tahlia is taking steps! K hasn't taken any steps yet, he'll be a while off yet!

Nic - Yay for Tyron taking some steps too! He'll be off before you know it! How old was Nixon when he started walking?
