Hello ladies!

Marni.. oh poor pet. Great to hear its all going well though. Jesse goes down anywhere between 7pm-8.30pm lately. Though i find is he has a later day sleep (not waking sometimes until 4.30pm) he has a harder time going to sleep. Not to mension the heat doesnt help.

Helen.. great to see you are home. The twins are gorgeous! Congrats again!

Meg.. hows J been lately. You poor thing going through that so often. WOuld it be because of low immunity? Hope your OB can offer some advice. Oh hun, Jesse eats like a sparrow too. But he eats when hes hungry i guess. Hes just so so fussy its so hard to know what to feed him. But have found vegemite is his thing so he has sandwiches, crackers, toast.. all with vegemite. Smoothies are also a hit as i make them for him in a special Mickey cup. I guess thats what you just have to do at this age.. go with what they like. Jesse wont touch any vegetables.. only fruit he'll eat is banana. I do give him multivitamins though so at least hes getting something good. Hopefully our boys both snap out of this soon.

Jodi.. how are you going with the girls. Oh dear, yeh maybe a gate. Can nina open doors? Unfortunately in our house Jesse has discovered how to do this too. Though im lucky that hes a people person and always wants to be where company is.

Shell.. how you feeling hun? Hope youre on the mend.

Nelle.. um.. only advice with River is to just use open ended questions. Offer him choices in his day. Eg, would you like a piece of toast or some cereal. Or would you like to wear a blue top or a white top. Things like that to encourage him to have to answer, rather than just a yes or no shake of the head. He will get there im sure.. by the sounds of it is just the way he is and his personality and as Meg said, i bet he just comes out with a sentence one day and shocks you completely

Annat.. oh jesse has one of those Tonka Firetrucks and loves it! Jett will love it.

Belle.. how you doing?

Nessa.. good luck with the open inspection hun.

Nothing much to report here.. Jesse and Keira are both well and sleeping through which is great. Keira is rolling and sits on my lap unaided.. wish she would not grow up so fast! Jesse is booked in to start day care next year. I think hes going to love it as he just loves kids so much.

Um.. alot of Jesse's christmas presents i bought months ago so will have to think, will probably find other things i cant remember..
But what i can is... hes getting a basket ball hoop, a Diego laptop, a big emergency vehicle carrier thing (has cars and stuff in it), My First Leappad and books, a bike (from IL's), a water and sand table (from mum & dad), a Wiggles remote control car + a Doodlepad thing (from great grandma).. thats all i cant think of atm.
Keira.. im still yet to get her something else, but from us so far shes getting a FP Pram that is a walker and a Learning Bunny thing. Its so hard to work out what to get her, shes still a little young for girly things and we have all baby toys still from Jesse. Might get her some fun teethers or something.

Hope everyone is well.
