hello everyone

arte- the dyson is amazing!! i am in love, thanks for asking LOL, i haven't had a full on go yet cos i've been out all day and now it's a bit too late and dark in our house (dp is a sparky and we have the worst lit house i've ever been in- go figure?!?). can't wait till tomorrow to give the house a good work over.
glad you've made a new friend

md- any school that implements a restorative practise on bullying is doing really well. i am primary school trained as well and have done postgrad studies in student welfare including heaps on bullying (something else you didn't know about me LOL). if you want to do any reading on the topic- maybe ways you could help H, i suggest reading anything by Andrew Fuller.

sherie - chuck A in your bed!!!! dh will never know and it's so good snuggling with your little man xox

noni- your hair looks/sounds great!!

And who can blame you Sherie, its always nice to have a snuggle in bed. Which tooth is it thats coming through? Hope he gives you a decent sleep tonight. I'm new to slow cooking but so far so good, its wonderul actually! So convenient to able to chop things up and throw them all in and just leave it. DP is loving it too. Lucky you having a spend up on yourself! Had a laugh at your DH loving your new just for pretty set, typical male lol. Sherie I dont even know what a t bone steak looks like hahaha, all I know about this lamb is its part of the leg and theres like 4 steaks and they are pretty small, well compared to a chicken breast. Thanks for the tips re cooking them! Now I just need a peg for my nose lmao.

Gracie - Far out how many years did you spend at uni if you dont mind me asking?

Arte - Yay so happy for you and your new friend! When is the lady from next door moving in?

Noni - Are you another one who doesnt eat red meat? lol

Well all my talk last week about how well Maddie sleeps has backfired I think. Her sole tooth seems to be doing the whole come up and go down again dance. Last night she was up a bit and I was knackered this morning. Since going to bed at 7.30 tonight she has had a cry a few times so far, so we've given nurofen (hate doing it!) and we'll see what happens.

Hayley, AH! you mean lamb leg steaks? those are best for cooking in the SC as they can get really tough if you cook them any other way. How long have you not eaten red meat for? It's his top right tooth that has just broken the skin. So far he is sleeping well tonight with not a peep out of him. I put a pillow on each side of the cot, leaving a little gap in the middle just wide enough for him to lay between them and then covered it with a blanket, so he couldn't get under the pillows. He looks really cosy so fingers crossed it does the job.

haley - yeah i eat spagetti bolagnaise since pregnancy but before that i hadnt eaten red meat in like 7 years or something crazy lol

good afternoon ladies

hayley- i spent 6.5 years at uni and now i'm a sahm!!! funny hey? dp failed year 12 and now earns between 3-6 times (depending on how busy he is/how much work there is) what i earn. crazy isn't it??
i don't eat red meat either- haven't for almost 15 years. if you know of any great vegetarian slow cooker recipes let me know cos i've only used mine once since i've had it.

sherie- did you end up with A in your bed? lewis loves a snuggle. atm dp is sleeping in the spare room cos he's working 10 hour days and sleeps better by himself so lewis and i have been sharing our queen size bed together. he loves it and sprawls himself out like he's the 'man' of the house. dp comes in and just cracks up over lewis stealing his side of the bed. it's so cute!

thanks for the tip about fisher price at target Renee. popped in this morning and got 3 new toys for $26. lewis is loving it!

Gracie, Alister didn't end up in my bed at all because he slept through the entire night without waking up AT ALL!!!!!!!!! I woke up at 4am in a panic because I realised that he hadn't woken up at all LOL and I had to get up and check him to make sure he was OK. He ended up sleeping till 7am and then I brought him in with me for a snuggle till I got up at 7.30. So I don't know if it was what I did with his bed or if it was just a one off - but I am really hoping that he does it again tonight LOL.
