Hi!
We're going well here! Had a huge weekend with a parties and our conference - we got our new catalogue and a whole lot of new products for free which was fun - a very inspiring day also with lots of stories!
Anyway - Kids are good...we kind of - Louis had his biggest tantrum ever today - like he went off the deep end but we're all good now and Dylans going through a stage where he doesn't really want to sleep in the day again - 2 x 45 min naps is it but he is sleeping really well overnight so I won't complain!! I hate cc but it really does seem to work!
Louis is continually blowing me away with how clever he is (he looked in a book today at a picture of a a clarinet thing and asked me "what musical instrument is that?" I had to ask him twice to make sure! LOL! He's also being really beautiful to his Dylan - sharing with him and being really nice. So nice to see (although they of course have their moments!) I love waking up to them having a giggle in their room - they love pulling faces at each other and they just crack each other up!
Dylans taking steps now! 2 steps is the most and he's standing up on his own all the time! Crazy kid!! He's just so gorgeous though!
I don't know where all these nice words are coming from really - I had such a rotten day with them - LOL! Although - It's always nice to reflect when they're asleep! hehe.
Toilet training for Louis may have to go on hold again....he's got the concept well and truly but as soon as he has undies or anything on he just wee's in them - on the potty - but he's just not interested in trying to pull them down - which would be fine but he doesn't tell us when he needs to go - he just does it....hmmmm....I mean I'll leave him nappy free at home but just won't persist with anything else just yet maybe...Any advice????
Tracey - I'm sooo sorry to hear that Jordans giving you so much trouble...Does he sleep with any toys/dummy?? I would just take those away from him until he agrees to go to sleep maybe?? I'm a hard a*** though! hehehe. My sleeps to precious to stuff around with though (as I'm sure you know!!!)
Sorry just read your later post and sounds like thats what your doing!! I would definitely cut down the day sleeps...I've done that as well - 2 hours max for Louis and preferable 1 1/2 seems to be helping a lot. Also we're putting Dylan down first now so Louis gets a bit of extra time up with us reading books and having a cuddle...so his bedtime more around 7.30-8pm ish now depending on how easily Dylan goes down...
Another idea - I do this with Louis as well (mainly because I have to or he'll wake up Dylan!) but I actually take him from the room and put him in time out...he usually gets all upset and asks to go back to bed - which he can if he goes straight to sleep!! LOL - oh the joys!
Wow Tracey - this p/g is really moving along!! It seems to have flown!! (easy for me to say - LOL!) I can't wait to see your tummy!!!
Rachael - Did you end up getting a toilet seat??? I bought one but it doesn't fit on our toilet - grrr. Louis doesn't like going on big toilets either - you can see how it would be a bit scary for them. And Louis is full of scary at the moment - scary ghosts, scary monsters etc. He'll come running in and say "mum monsters coming ah ah ah" He's only playing but I think he does have a little element of fear as such...no nightmares though so thats good!
I agree on the bed thing with you - I'd get him settled in it before the move!
How exciting about the record deal Wow! Sounds like it will be a bit of pressure on you time wise though!! Hope it all gets recorded quickly!
Cindy - So glad the girls went well in childcare!!! Thats great! Yeah at Charlotte standing up!! It all happens so quickly!!
So glad you guys had a great time at Hi-5!!!
Nikki - Glad you had a great holiday! LOL at Harry and Chantelle being the same weight! Wow at him being 1 on Fri - how time has flown! Sounds like he's going really well (other than being sick...poor munchkin!)
Big hugs....that seem really strange with your sister...I mean - to not even listen - how frustrating. And...accidents happen anyway - as if you wouldn't talk ever again...seems very strange!
Gosh - I bet you are ready for a break having all the kids at home!!!
Kirsty - So good to hear from you - Big hugs! I hope that everything goes ok - sounds like you have another little fighter on your hands!!!
Gus sounds just gorgeous - how is his eating going??
Ok - I better get to bed! Chat later!
