    Did he write his full name? Wow that is impressive.
    Took L for hid 3.5 y check up today and he is completely off the chart in height and weight. He wants to be a doctor but I'm trying to talk him into an afl career

    Hahaha thats funny Ginger, or maybe even a basketball player with his height!!! Nah, footy players earn more in Aus hehehe. I am always preaching to M that she will make me proud if she becomes a doctor...jk of course DH loves his job too much to leave, though he is often in Melb for work.

    Arte that is impressive!! W is such a smart kid.

    I just bought an amber teething necklace, exciting, interesting to see if it works.

    Wow G, L must be massive! W is slightly under average. He looked tiny at kindy when he first started but a couple of smaller kids have started so he looks a bit more in proportion now. Now that I think of it he must not look too small because everyone keeps asking me when he is starting school and seem surprised when I say he isn't even 4 yet.

    Yip, he wrote his whole name. He has been able to spell, read and type it and a few other words for ages but he won't attempt anything unless he knows he can do it right iykwim so he must feel confident enough in his letter writing to do it in front of me now.

    Another 3am start to the day. Just awake and not tired. Do you think that it means anything that 3 out of the 4 times it has happened at home in the last 6 weeks it has been a Wednesday night? Might have to start a food diary for him.

    Arte - have you tried to make him stay in bed and read books for those early starts? K sometimes wakes in the middle of the night and insists that she is not tired, but if I just give her a heap of books (and the hallway light on) I don't hear from her again - no idea how long it takes her to crash.

    Trill - mini bags of popcorn, will have to keep an eye out. Finding the space for a popcorn maker is probably an issue in our kitchen though.

    Cally, he won't stay in his room by himself once he is awake. I put the telly on and go back to bed but he usually comes in every half hour and asks if it is time for me to get up yet. I have tried to make him stay in bed and go back to sleep but that just ended up in several hours of tantrum.

    Oddly enough, on the days after he has been up for half of the night he is noticeably better behaved!

    Looks like the interest in anatomy has been dumped for volcano's instead. Not a strong point of mine - now youtube-ing plate tectonics to learn enough so I can explain it to him lol

    do you reckon he could look at like a luminated digital clock and learn to only come in and get you up at a certain time? like, if the clock says 5:00 then he can get up? mebbe?
