belated happy new year!

peeks - to answer you question, im feeling tired atm. i think ds might be doing that 18mth sleep regression thing a tad early. he is waking most nights (usually around 3-4am), coming in to our bed, fussing around for an hour, going to sleep for another hour & then he's up for the day. siiigh. im due august 8 but will probably be a week earlier as I will have to have a scheduled c section. I had a little giggle at your toilet training post. my mum reckons I was toilet trained by 12 month. as were my sister & brother. we were all a year apart... so 3 under 3 years... all toilet trained by 12 months...??! I think she might be embellishing a little. my little one is still in our room too, don't worry! how does it work having ruby in there too? do they wake each other?

Tasha - I haven't thought about toilet training yet either really. I mean ive thought about it. as in I don't want to do it! im a bit concerned about how ill go with a newborn & toilet training (perhaps) next year, but I guess ill just see what happens. sometimes when we change our son, we will ask him 'you got any wee's? where's your wee's?!', before we take the nappy away & sometimes he does a wee! same goes in the bath too, although I think its a reflex when his legs hit the warm water - he wee's.

vic - we are just scrapping in at size 12-18 months... so technically I still get to shop in the baby section, but not for long. although I guess ill get to do it all over again soon. your ds's childcare sounds nice, I bet he loves it there.

afm - not much going on after the Christmas/new year excitement. actually, there was no excitement on new years, i went to bed at 11pm. ds is doing well, apart from the sleep thing. we have been at my sisters this past week and he has loved playing with his 2.5 year old cousin. he was even starting to learn how to get annoyed when she took things off him! usually he just stands there confused, then wanders off to play with something else... i think he's a lover, not a fighter!
