Cally I hear ya on the banshee baby antics. i had to post a thread about it...L was being really horrendous screaming howling child for 2 nights in a row...(like 4 hours at a time). i was in tears the first night, felt like i was losing the plot as NOTHING was calming her down. i am with you and think that she was just really overtired...at the time i thought maybe she was getting sick, but luckily not. hugs to you, i know how emotionally draining it can get.

Leila overall is on 2 sleeps. they have gotten longer (ie most around 1-2 hours), but she is def starting to head towards one sleep...

hhmm re the chrissy stuff...not sure. the wooden table and chairs is a good idea. L loved playing with them at IKEA. actually anything that is miniture ATM is her fav.

Ange: hmm that is strange re the milk. maybe it is the quantity? i know that i can't cope with large amounts of straight milk (i used to get eczema as a kid) so maybe there is a slight intolerance...?

Noni: YAY! sleeping through 2 nights in a row is not a fluke anymore!!! hope the good times continue!! bring it baby bring it!! LOL!

AFM: well not much going on here (after Leilas banshee nights). we had a first b'day party today so we are all a bit tired and had to force L to at least eat something nutritious for dinner (caught her with a big wedge of violet crumble in her gob earlier at the party!! ).
her cutest trick ATM is to cuddle her dolly! it is sooo awesome. you ask her to cuddle dolly and she picks her up and pops her up on her shoulder and cuddles and rocks baby then gives her kisses!! sooo funny!
