Sending big hugs to you Caddie... it's pretty scary when they do the choking on vomit thing. Xander has gotton a hoarse throat before from crying before, it's such a pitiful sound when it happens.. I sure hope she's not getting sick, you really sound like you have enough on your plate right now - if you ever feel like a chat, you are welcome to invite yourself over for coffee (or I could come visit you/meet in the middle). Glad to hear that you had a lovely birthday though!

Maz - That Doctor sounds terrible! Poor little Vy (and poor you for having to watch your little girl in pain). I hope she hasn't gotten too unsettled from the needles, but at least you have a wonderful supportive DH that will help out if need be.

Chrissy - Good on you for leaving bubba for a bit of a break! I ducked out to the shops this evening and left bub behind with DH as he was asleep... LOL... Xander woke about 2mins after I left and screamed the whole time I was gone. My poor hubby looked shattered when I got back 20 minutes later! I agree, it does them good to know what we go through on a daily basis. I swear they think we just sit around gooing and gaaing at our bubbas all day.

Belle - Was great to chat to you today... you are sounding a lot happier than last time we spoke. Keep ya chin up chicky!

Adele - YAY! to getting ADSL... I don't think I could ever go back to dial-up again. Bet you are loving the extra speed.

Xander giggled for the first time today... and guess what it was at? his own farting noise when I took off his nappy! he is such a BOY! LOL. The little grot.

I've taken to putting him to bed at 9pm every night, so far it really seems to be working and he is waking so much happier. Sometimes he lies awake for a while, but never cries so it can't be a bad thing. He's a little chatty/grunty/grizzly tonight tho... I think it is because it is quite a warm night here in Perth.

Actually, question for you girls... obviously I don't want him to overheat at night, but it's still not hot enough for a/c so what are you girls putting them to bed in? I've got him in a short sleeve body suit and swaddled in muslin (no blankets or sheets). I hope he'll be warm enough for the night? I guess being a little cooler is better than being too hot.

Guess I better put myself off to bed. It's such a gorgeous night outside tho.
