Gracie - I did a double take at the Lacey as well! The country & western theme sounds like heaps of fun. Yes I am feeding Maddie meat, I started with lamb and I'm now doing like mince. Its not too bad cooking it. Maddie isnt overly fussed with it though, she prefers chicken.

Cally - Oh no scary fall! I agree that its more of a shock for us as parents. I guess they will be in for many falls as they start walking though. I think we have a top tooth/teeth on the way as well. How has K been with her teeth? Poor Maddie was very upset and grumpy all day.

Sherie - Gastro is the worst! I hope you are all over it now. Did DH avoid it? Not long ago Maddie did a major spew and I wasnt too sure if she was sick because she still seemed happy, then my tummy started churning & that confirmed it for me lol. Is the wrapping still working? Who would have thought hey!

MD - Yes the cheese was a worry for me, but now I'm wondering if it was just coincidence? I cant explain the rash that suddenly appeared on that day though. Or I also thought maybe her tummy wasnt ready for it? Who knows, all I know is that it seems to be behind us now woo hoo. Wow you are so creative, love the garden party idea.

Clare - YES I know all about the rocking of the trolley. My DP was standing at the markets once holding a bag of potatoes, and he was rocking back and fourth. I just stopped & looked at him and he stopped and was like omg how embarrassing, realising what he was doing!! My DP is the dinner cooker as well, gotta train these men well.

Lil Rachee - Welcome! Whats your DD's name? My DD was also born on Sept 27th so they are exactly the same age!

Noni - Congrats on the ergo. Let me know how it goes. I am thinking of buying one for going o/seas with. That is the carrier where you can carry bub on your back if you want right?

Well I didnt end up seeing S&TC, I was a real party pooper. Do you ever have times where you just feel like being at home with your family, doing nothing much? That was me last night, so I pulled out, the girls didnt seem to mind but I still feel guilty. I just wanted to be at home with DP & Maddie really.

I am sure we have another toothie on the way, as Maddie has come up with another terrible rash on her face, exactly like the last time when her bottom teeth were on the way through. So I guess its just a waiting game now.

I have the outlaws staying up for the weekend. They are at a football game atm so I have peace. Far out my MIL is a pain in the butt lol.

Anyway enough of my rambling...I have an exam on Monday (my 1st uni exam!!) so I need to study. Hello to everyone I missed, I hope you and your fam are all doing well.
