wooo we are back to lots of talking!! i feel like i just wrote an essay...

re sleep: Chase now sleeps 8pm-9pm to 7am bless his little heart, no wake ups inbetween. Then its the feeds during the day; 7am, 9am, noon, 3pm, 6pm and 8.30pm so I can pretty much work my day around that. He only started doing this about two weeks ago but I was soooo happy and i still am since my boy is in bed fast asleep and its 8.30pm.

jumper: I have the fisher and price precious planets jumperoo, haven't used it yet. I bought mine online at babyzonedirect even with postage was cheaper than the shops.

Kylz: so J wasn't teething...I think Chase might be. Not that he has any teeth coming through but he actually chomps on my fingers really hard and just cries randomly until he gets the finger. I think it must be a prelude or something to actual teething. He wont chew on the proper teething toys though, I think he doesnt like the taste of the rubber stuff lol

louise: how good is sleeping through???? I actually dont miss the 3am feed lol but then again its always just me and chase all day must be nice to have that special time with you and Chloe. I think I remember you saying people were saying stuff about you co-sleeping??? Before I actually had Chase I was so against co-sleeping due to the videos they made me watch in hospital...now I don't know how I would live without it hahaha funny how experience changes perspective. Co-sleeping is my favourite way to sleep with chase once daddy goes to work in the morning.

hope: shouldn't be long before the boys sleep through hopefully sounds like you are doing well in spite of the lack of sleep. I'm amazed at how well us mothers do with so little sleep yet we raise children.

ferrals: when I read that post about your DSS I wanted to punch her mother in the face. I'm glad you blasted her, that is like child abuse or something letting her daughter suffer with nits in her hair just because she is too cheap. You got some great bargains on your trip too, I'm so jealous. Let us know when you get on fb; and you can turn off the chat function if that makes your DH a bit nervous, i hate having the chat thing turned on lol.

iona: LOL little jack smacking himself in the face with his fist. Chase still does that now the silly sausage.

sorry to anyone I missed the page only shows so many posts so I reply to the ones I can see

growth update: Chase bats at his toys when he is lying down now instead of balling his eyes out LOL Still won't be put on his belly, just cries still. He can grab this crinkly dog toy if I place it on his lap when he is sitting down and he brings it and blankets to his mouth to chew on. Oh and he likes to grab my hands and sit up when he is on the change table. Chase only just started holding his bobble head straight the past two days. I can sit him in his bumbo and he sits there normally instead of bending backwards Maybe a couple more weeks and he will be ready to safely sit in the jumperoo.

OMG I bought some of that rice cereal stuff on the weekend Chase is 4 months tomorrow!!!!! But I think I might wait until he is 5-51/2 months before I start trying the cereal, although I am so tempted to try now and see if he likes it hehe. He sometimes chews when we are eating and makes noises like he wants to know what we are doing. Still just knowing I have it at the ready makes me excited.
