Wow Det - 70 houses!!!!!!!!!! Congratulations on finding "the one"!! Did you just "know" straight away that it was the one, or did you have to weigh up pros and cons with others you liked?? Ahhh geez house-hunting seems so stressful!
Leon's a little horror at times too - he is such a character, it's amazing how their personalities are just shining through now! He often says "naaaahhh" and "yeeahh" so now I'm making a more conscious effort to say "yes" and "no" very properly!! Haha!
We are having dilemmas with clingy-ness still. Am thinking of buying him his own bed once and for all, I just need him out of our bed as he's becomming so disruptive and naughty at bed time. Don't know how I'm going to get him adjusted to sleeping on his own, but here goes!
Has anyone thought about 3yo kinder next year?? I have put him on 12 waiting lists!! There are a heap of kinders/elc's near us and a lot of them are already full so we won't find out til mid year which, if any, he gets into. Shell - you live near me, where do you recommend??
Anyway, hope you're all well. Talk soon!! xox
ETA - is anyone still breastfeeding?!!? I am!! Am trying really hard to cut down as I am over it, but L is well and truely addicted. I don't want him still feeding at 3 years old, but can't see him self-weaning at all so I'm pretty sure I'll have to be the meanie and I really don't know how to go about it
Holly- prob I've found with Kinder around here expect them to be 3 by end Jan so being Feb babies they miss cut off for 3 year old kinder. Unless they can start term 2? Also heard very hard to get into. One mum told me she lined up at 3am on the day of enrollments to score a place.
Hello everyone!! Haven't really caught up, a little busy here. But DD2 is sleeping atm and playschool is on so I can write a quick post, LOL.
Holly- I'm still breastfeeding! But she only has 1 feed a day. She would have more if I let her but I am able to distract her a lot of the time. I'm just trying to keep it at one feed a day seeing as I have another one to feed too! I don't know what I'm going to do, I want her to self-wean but I don't see it happening soon either so I'm just going with it. It's not such a big deal if I can keep it at 1 feed a day I think. But a bit annoying when she wants it lots. But she loves it so much and she still gets so excited when she can have a feed and I get beautiful cuddles so I can't take it away from her.
The terrible two's haven't really hit here yet I don't think. She's a pretty good girl and generally listens to me when I tell her not to do something. She has a few little tanties but I just ignore them if she's obviously just putting it on to try and get her way. But she wants to do EVERYTHING herself now which means everything takes 3 times as long. Bit frustrating and I have to try and remember she just wants to learn and be patient. It's either be patient and wait or don't let her do it and deal with a tantrum so I'm trying to be patient when it's something she can do herself.
Umm...what else? 3 yr old kinder we're not doing. I think I'm waiting til she's four. But I would like to do one more activity during the week to keep her occupied. Something I can do and take DD2 aswell though, not sure what, any suggestions??
