Hi!

Went out for dinner last night and Missy - you're right - I had a great time! Was super tired by the time I got home but it was good to get out of the house!
Louis had swimming this morning and loved it! After everything we did he kept saying "more". hehe. He was kicking lots as well. I took him to the toddler pool after and he loved it so I'll have to do that more often now as well.
He's been really good lately which is nice...lots of cuddles and kisses and not too much hitting...He's throwing some great tantrums though but only if he's really tired...

Missy - Glad Callum had fun at swimming as well!

Nikki - Hi! Yep I'm all organised - bags are packed - hehe! I'm getting very excited. I'll start my walking in another 3 weeks or so when it's basically safe for him to arrive! I did it with Louis and it really go things moving so we'll see!
You need to do what you need to do with Chantelle in childcare. Maybe just try it out one week with the extra day and see how you both go?? Don't feel guilty though! I'm sure it's really hard...(aaahhh you're making me nervous - hehe - just kidding!)
Hope you and the kids are all good!!
I messaged with Cindy yesterday and she hasn't got her phone connected yet and thus no computer! Are you still going on Sunday?? Is your dh going??
Ummm...I think it was about 3-4 weeks after his photo shoot that the catalogue came out! Ooh I hope thats not the case and the girls will be in an up and coming one!

Melissa - the paintbrushes sound like a good idea! Louis has been drawing with crayons and textas but he loses interest pretty quicky at this age. Same with the fingerpainting and play dough really....but it's still another activity for 30min...It can be hard to keep them stimulated sometimes though!
Louis is getting better at occupying himself though...This morning he pulled down the washing basket and had taken my shoes into the laundry and was filling them with pegs! hehe. I was worried when he was so quiet but I'm happy with that! hehehe.

Dani - LOL at Jett's new word!! hehe. Louis only has 7 teeth! hehe. LOL with the dogs...my brother has a dog and it kisses Louis to death..he used to be a bit scared but now he teases it. If she starts to walk away he yells out "coco" and then turns and runs and loves it when she chases him!! I've never seen a dog get tired of games before a person! hehehe.
How cute with the valentines day cup. I must say thats the cute thing about kids going to childcare they always make these cute crafty gifts and things for mum and dad!! and just the paintings and stuff...so cute!

Tracey - Good luck with the packing!! Hope your braz doesn't hurt too much!! Just a strip will be good! You want to feel comfortable!!
I hope you have a wonderful and safe trip!! I'm sure you will!!
Pick a nice day with the painting and stick Jordan outside in just a nappie! Then it doesn't matter where it goes! I also did it and had some water in his little pool so I could wash it all off before he came inside!
We'll definately have to catch up when you get back!!

Rachael - Good luck with the rest of your training...LOL at the "baby cult"....

Sorry for the epic! Thats why I usually post more regularly - hehehe!
