maz - that's wonderful news that you are all home now. And I agree with everyone else, you are such a strong woman. Please don't feel the need to apologise for not having the time to fill us all in on what was happening. You were in our thoughts day and night while he was in hospital. The most important thing is that he's got his health, and you're all home. I bet the kids were estatic to have you home, and Jed too!!
And a huge congratulations on your breastfeeding relationship. Another reason why you're a champ! Keep up the good work.

nessa - I agree with Nelle, leave the housework. I know it's awful having a messy house, or not having something done. But when it gets to this point, you need to think about number one. You.

chrissy - woohoo on Caity having a fun day at school!! Nina loves going to school each week. She even calls it that.

nelle - we occassionally put Nina on the potty, which sometimes is a success, other times is a complete disaster! She's starting to realise when she needs to wee, cause she'll say 'wee' and hold herself. And if she's done a poo somewhere during nappy free time she'll come racing to find one of us, and take us there and say 'oh o'.

We've had a huge week or two lately. My work has had to lay me off as from tomorrow as the receptionist who is on maternity leave is coming back, but didn't want to go back to doing reception, so they're putting her in my spot. Bit of a bummer, but oh well. Not much I can do about it.
Nina is going really well. She has dropped her day sleeps now, so the days are very long. We found that if she had a day sleep, she would wake at night. If she didn't have a day sleep, she'd sleep through. So I'd rather that she slept through at night.
Everything else is going just dandy. Heath's new job is going great. He's working really long hours, but it pays off on pay day.
Gotta run, Nina is demanding my attention! What's new!!!
