Arte - Maddie is into crawlers and has been for the past two weeks. She is 7kg. Everyone tells me that she is really big for her age. You will sell your place eventually.

Noni - Hope you arent coming down with something?

Sherie - Did you end up getting the dust storm? Thanks for the FDC advice.

Cally - 2kgs above pre pregnancy weight is very good!

Gracie - I feel like a real mum these days as well. All my friends are still going out clubbing and always have massive hangovers on Mondays. They must think I'm a real dag these days, but I'm sure they understand why!

Marydean - Thanks for your advice as well in regards to FDC. I'm going to look into it this week. From what I could find on Friday, there arent many FD carers in my area, and the ones that are close are full. I'm going to call the childcare hotline on Monday to see if they can help me.

I bought a bumbo today for Madeline from toys r us. It was a choice between the blue or lilac, we got the blue, it just seems brighter and also it is more unisex. (i'm hoping for a boy somewhere down the track!!)
