Awww Arte!! shucks! A big one year old?!!! it is really special isnt it?!!!
and to the birthday boy...Happy Birthday Will!!!!
PP: yeah we have a grabber in the cot too. everynight i have to make sure that there isnt anything on top of the drawers otherwise it ends up in the cot with her....grrr, pretty annoying, but she always seems pleased with herself.
man, i would be pretty tetchy too about DH having to go away again.
MD: IKWYM about needing to get things done!! our house has been a pigsty for the last couple of weeks. last night i had to pull a dinner out of thin air for all of us...oh it was MAGNIFICENT pffttttt!! LOL!
PITA about not being able to tidy with E around. L was like that for a little while too. now i give her 'jobs' to do while i am faffing about trying to get things done. our latest is hanging out the washing. i give her the peg container and she 'sorts' them for me...he he he. such a mess, but she loves it!
Kate: i hear you on the early mornings. i am soooo over them. L usually wakes anywhere btw 4 and 6am. and is really hard to resettle. Baby Love reckons it is really common and jsut to try some quiet time in the bed with a boob or bottle, then back to bed....we have been doing that with some success. ITH?
Sherie: congrats on getting organised for the vaccinations. i am still really nervous about the whole affair. i dont want to give them to her, especially now that they have brought it forward to 12 months. my MACH nurse was already onto me today about it....feeling like the 'ignorant first time mummy doing damage to her baby' by not doing, and on the other hand feeling really sick in my belly to give her something so potent. she is soo little still. i think i might try to drag it out to 18 months....at the best.
ahh yes, i guess that i will be due soon for the glorious pap. i had one when i found out i was preggers. so it must be coming up. ho hum...
AFM: well feeling a bit down as my Mum left about 1/2 hour ago to go back home. we had an awesome time together and it was really great to have another woman around to help with L IYKWIM? although DH is great, he is just not in tune to L's needs and wants and requirements and is constantly asking for feedback or advice from me, whereas with Mum i could just leave her and know that they were both fine and having fun. so i guess i will miss that bit of help and company. not to mention a great shopping buddy...
Went to the MACH nurse and got Leila weighed....7.8 kgs!!!!!!!!!! OMG she is TINY!!! the nurse (a new one YAY!) said that she was awesome and looked perfectly healthy despite the fact that she is in the lower end. so i am relieved to finally have someone with some sense working for our centre. so her stats are 7.8kgs, length: 72 cms and a whopping head of 46.5....
feeling pretty chuffed about the whole thing!
Also, L is getting really good on trying to walk. she now walks around the shops with us holding on to our fingers and just LOVES it! so cute to hear her laugh of triumph!
