Bloody 'ell you lot can talk! I've got buckleys of catching up completely, so will do my best.

HAPPY 7 MONTHS TO THE SPUNKY LITTLE VY!

Maz - Thanks for sending those piccies through! Totally totally gorgeous... anytime you feel like post packing her over, feel free. Same goes for Riv!

Nelle - Now you are well aware that once you've spent hours cleaning your house to resemble something out of a Better Homes magazine tomorrow morning, all the mums will come in and say 'wow, what a clean house' and that is when you apologise prefusely about what disgusting condition it is in, and how it's usually much tidier yar-di-yar (well, I swear that's what all the girls in our group do - not me of course )

Caddie / Rikki - Looking forward to meeting up with you both this week!

AnnaT - They look so cute with the two bottom teeth don't they? Xander only has those two, I just love the little toothy grins he gives now. I agree, $80 for a Bumbo is majorly expensive - hope you get the money back soon.

Nessa - Men are just shocking when they get a cold. Anyone would think they are dying the way they carry on. I hope for your sake that he gets better soon.

Kellxx - Was the servo flat out at 5pm? Most the Perth ones are chaos that time of day.

Annie - Xander totally loves (over-steamed) broccoli.. it is his fave food. I was worried about the gas factor, but he hasn't had any probs with it. Am going to try cauliflower soon too. Speaking of food, when is it ok to feed things with tomato in it? Like spag sauce etc.

Hello to Belle, Helen, Shell, Jodi, Ambz, Chrissy, Sharleen, Rach.... hope all is well.

As for us, Xander is much better now, still really crabby but that's just him I think. Who else here mentioned whingey kids? Xander is really bad as well, I don't know why either.

I recently bought two of those new Haute one-size pockets recently. For those interested, they are pretty good and well made (the PUL and lining is sooo soft), but they are no BumG that's for sure! They work really well, but the fit just isn't as good as the BumG - so for your dollar you'd be better going with them.
