Hi Girls
We are back from Bali and it was an amazing Trip. I feel like DS has grown so much in those 2 weeks. His speech is really coming along and he can repeat most words back to me now. He chats away all the time and I have to remember to listen to him. He says "Hi Mum" all the time That and "Yee Har" with his arm in the air doing circles pretending to lasso something. Its so cute. He can say so much now. We are working on colours at the moment.

Bali was amazing and just what our family needed. Jack went into care 4 times over there and they were amazing. They even did stage shows for the parents and I bawled like a baby seeing him up there in costume. I was spotted almost at the end and he cracked it and wanted me so I had to go get him off the stage but I didn't mind. We worked on his swimming and water issues and by the end of the trip was comfortable in the water and ended up enjoying it. Too bad its too cold to go swimming.

He was the king of the resort and all the ladies loved him and smothered him in kisses and cuddles every time we went to the restaurant which was three times a day. He would walk up the stairs and usually 5 women fought over him to be chosen to carry him to our table. He would hug them all. So very cute.

The plane ride over was good. We were able to stretch out as the plane was half full and he got his own seat. On the way home he was a bit fussy but I put that down to my DH being fussy and DS reacting to his moodiness at returning back home. Funny how kids can pick up on grumpy energy.

DS has been back at child care for over a week. While he was away 2 of him best friends turned 2 and have been moved up to the next room. The team leader of his room came up to me yesterday and said Jack was having a sad day. She said he has been very quiet and not really getting involved as much. She said she thinks its because the other 2 boys have gone up and she will try and sent him to the next room for a few visits. My baby has friends...YAY!!! I was sad to think he was sad and I know he is not loving being in childcare since we came back but this is our life and I have to work.

Sleep has been going well. Still having a 2.5 hour sleep from 12.30pm and goes to bed at 7.15pm and wakes around 6.30am - 7.00am. I dont normally have to get up to him unless its just to cover him up and straighten him up in the bed. Still using a dummy Not that it really bothers me, only when he insists on it when not in bed.

Toilet training has been on my mind although I wont be starting for a while. Its not something I look forward to doing. I get holidays in October so may try then or just wait till xmas break. I dont want to start too early, however he hates having his nappy changed. Its quite the ordeal to get him to lay down on the change table.

Andie - 30 weeks ??? Yay for you. I am quietly stalking you
