Haha Rach, it looks like Jack had a great time!
Eugh, I put Riv's nappies in the laundry and I can smell them! Might go wash them - gotta love that acrid teething wee smell!
I cant see it until I go around to my parents where they have broadband, but it definantly sounds hilarious Rach.
Nelle-better wash those nappies, night time power is cheaper. Well at least it is here in Tassie.
Eithan is sleeping really well and I am so ready for bed, but have to be easter bunny yet. Leith is watching a scary movie, and I cant watch them at all, so I am on here instead. The soundtrack is enough to make me cringe.

Ok ruby sqeeling.
Ps went to zoo yesterday and it was great.Ruby slept most of the time and millana loved it.
Will download some piccies later.
I didn't realise it was a new thread, and thought it was odd no-one was posting!!
We've had a hectic weekend, nina thought it would be fun to have only a 30 minute sleep yesterday, which kept us busy. So today she's been sleeping ALL day! She'd wake up for an hour, then have a 2hr + sleep. She's got a runny nose and a fever ATM so giving her some panadol.
Hope everyone has had a good easter, and don't eat too much choccies!!!
Hope everyone had a good day!
We went out this morning to a nearby town for a stroll. Had a yummy meat pie for lunch, homemade ice cream for dessert and bought lollies at THE coolest and biggest lolly shop on earth! We went with Dhs workmate and his girlfriend who bought Jett a present - a cool Fremantle Dockers aqua-football. It was a nice day.
Jett then had some choccy easter egg (and loved it!) and some spag bol for dinner (loved that too!) I think he's going to have Mama's sweet tooth and penchant for Italian food lol
Now he is asleep. Hopefully until atleast 4am but I wont hold my breath.
Updated his webpage with piccies of him !STANDING! and eating choccy and spag bol.
WOW I can't believe how strong jett is!!! He certainly is in a hurry to be up and moving isn't he. I haven't tried nina on spag bog, should do it sometime.
Jodi - it is THE funniest thing to see them trying to slurp up spaghetti lol I cut it up so it was small enough to fit in his mouth. He managed to eat about 3/4 of what I put on his h/chair tray. He was orange from head to toe afterward so have a bath ready and waiting Yeah he is pretty strong for a 6.5mth old. I never expected it really even though I did everything a tad bit early for my age group, but Jett just seems to be months ahead. Im a lazy mother too, I dont put any extra effort into making him all smart and the like sooooooo it must be natural talent
Hello.. just a quicky have to go out this morning.
Hope yall had a great easter... Jess got chocolate custard from the easter bunny and loved it.
Are you gals starting your bubs on more chunky food now? also, how much do they eat at each meal? Jess is having roughly a jar at each meal just wondering if thats enough?
Kell, well Jett is having normal food, no canned stuff. I just watch him with it and if it seems like he's having trouble eating it then I make it smaller. He has toast soldiers and fruit (usually two big bits of pear) for breakfast, yoghurt and more fruit for lunch and whatever we have at dinner OR some mashed potato.
