Shan - That is a brilliant weight gain! Go Xavier!!!
Lucinda has started smiling too. Last week she looked at me and did a big smile, but this morning it was a proper smiling-at-me smile. She was looking straight into my eyes and she did a massive cheesy grin! I melted. Naaaaaaaw.

Hi everyone Welcome Samcouger & Sophie and Lairdoz & DS. I definitely look forward to getting to know you & your babies better and sharing the journey together.

Me - I'm so busy that I feel overwhelmed at times. I am so freaking grateful that I have the most amazingly lovely husband who has cooked dinner every evening since I had Lucy. I have not ventured into my laundry in almost 3 weeks yet the laundry is still getting done with thanks to DH, DS1 & DD1. My days and consumed with breast feeds, 2 childrens nappy changes, feeding & amusing DS2 & DD2. By the time I get some time to myself, it is 11pm and I am exhausted. I dream of the day that I can shower & toilet ALONE again. lol. It might sound like a moan, but I am really loving it. DH is putting in applications for DS2 to start daycare soon. I am such a sook and I want him home with me forever but I know it is best for him, especially now where most of his activities are happening inside
