    everyone!

    Shell - we will have a good catch up and man-break when we are in Sydney. Maybe they will appreciate us more after a weekend with the 2 girls to themselves!

    my SIL just walked out of hte house and left her hubby to look after two kids for three days... He had to get his brother into help... She didn't even tidy up for him - just remember than when you are getting ready for mummy time in sydney.

    I did a similar thing with DH - but went away for two days - neither of the boys slept much while I was gone, and the house still looked like a bomb had gone off when I got home, but I did notice that DH was a little more understanding about how some days, a whole lotta nothing gets achieved.

    shell, i hope all is ok, the break in sydney will be ace for you xxx

    Kaz have you looked in to epsom salt (magnesium) in the bath for DS? or magnesium spray?
    i give (if she'll let me) DD magnesium spray at night, it helps to relax them, as well as rescue remedy sleep, maybe try those.

    Hi everyone else!!
    Ellie are you on FB???

    lilima - that really sucks hun. I hope your washing was dried today and that it's only a 24 hour thing and doesn't keep going on and on.....how is DD with her cast? I hope they haven't had to break and re-set.

    olive - I think I had sleep recsue remedy recommended the other day by a mate IRL. What's in it? might go and google it.

    Is anyone giving their 2 yr old a flu vax this year? I can't decide what to do with DS. The ones they use this year are not the same as the one from WA last year but I still feel quite freaked out by the possibility of a reaction (they have traces of formaldehyde in them plus traces of other stuff that doesn't sound good but gives good shelf life etc). I've had it no drama but I'm not sure who's at more risk in either scenario, DS or DP. It's so hard to know what the right thing to do is. DP doesn't care either way now but I want to make the decision I won't regret where is my crystal ball when I need it?
