    **** Gracie that is fantastic!!!! Sorry you still woke up, but way to go Lewis!!! I was excited enough about waking only twice, you must be ecstatic

    **Just had to go fish W and his toothbrush out of the dog water**

    Leemar, party sounds great! Lucky W is a boy, I would be waiting a loooong time for enough hair to tie up. Bet she looks adorable.

    Haley, I read your birth story, that sounds very traumatic! 3 epidurals!

    Pregpan, glad your chinese doctor was good, hope you can keep your stress levels down, I am sure there won't be any stress next week in BALI!!

    Trill, I got bitti D'lish, I have been thinking about it for ages and read the other day that every single disposable nappy that has ever been used is still sitting at a landfill somewhere! Made me feel guilty.

    Cinta, I had bad morning sickness from 8-17 weeks. I just started a new job and spent most of the day in the toilet puking lol

    Yay, W's smart trike arrived today. I wonder if I can hold out for two whole weeks lol

    Heya,

    Have fun in Bali!! I envy you!!

    hmm, morning sickness, i had it up until my darling little one was pulled outta my tummy. i lost weight rather than gain it, had a visit to hospital every 1-2 weeks, oh it was fun...all whilst finishing school haha...
    I'm just trying to find out if there's anything more i can do to stop m/s coz i want to have another bub sometime soon.

    Chessa was born with heaps of hair, been able to tie it up from 3-4 months i think.

    Congrats on the 8 hour sleep! hope u get lots more of those, then u just gotta train urself not to wake up, hehe.

    Sherie - nice work on the Gymboree splurge. I got the 30% off and gymbucks as well. Waiting on my package to turn up any day now.
    Also heard a great tip about vicks for bubs. Rub it into their FEET. Dunno how this works but mums have sworn by it. Worth a shot anyway.

    Cinta - Not too much m/s here. I had mild nausea when bending over and when cooking meat but other than that I was pretty good. Now heartburn, that is a different story. That killed me, ended up spending the last few months of the pregnancy sleeping on the recliner in the lounge room for a bit of relief. As for b'day pressies, I haven't stopped. I've got her so much stuff that I've got to remember where I hid it all. Going to have to tell DH that some of it came from friends hehehe.

    Sarah has only just started crawling in the last few weeks and no distinguishable words at all. I think she may be saying mumma when in her cot. It sounds like she is calling for me, I can't wait until she gets more words out.

    Pregpan - NO, REALLY...you're going to Bali...I didn't know that!
    Have a blast! When my sister went a few years back she wishes that she had taken more AUD$2 coins with her. Balinese melt them down for their jewellery so happily sell things to you for a $2 coin. Don't know if they still do that but maybe worth a shot... Good work on the herbalist today as well, now take care of the stress and relax for Bali....thats right Bali...apparently, you're going this weekend...?!

    Rain - Yeah for Lewis . Fingers crossed its a sign of things to come. I hear you on the waking up thing tho. The occasional nights that S sleeps thru I still wake up waiting for her. And because she is in our room with us, I actually listen for any of her noises to put my mind at ease that everything is ok.

    I brought S a gorgeous shirt from Best and Less the other day, it sort of fits in with her cupcake themed thing. But it may end up coming down to how the day looks before making the final decision.

    Rainy, that's awesome L! WTG - keep up the good sleeping so mummy can learn to sleep again too! LOL BTW saw your gorgeous boy with his fake parents in my letterbox yesterday .

    Re the talking, at this age look for them starting to recognise words and don't worry too much about whether they're saying them yet, some kids don't get single, consistent words for another couple of months. They often change the word they are using several times before arriving at one that sticks. They also tend to use one word for several things, ie the word for dog is used for any and every animal LOL. I've got a list of words that they tend to recognise first so I'll post that if anyone is interested.
