hi girls!

I'm back! phew we have had a few hard days on the sleep front which of course then turns into cross baby and grumpy toddler and mama at her wits end aaahhh motherhood is sublime at times hahahahaha!

HPL: that is so cute that audrey gets cross at you if you dont give her a kiss *CUTE ALERT*.
i have to say that i agree with you on the socialisation skill thing. DD1 never really had the same separation anxiety thing, whereas DD2 has started to develop it with vigour and i can see that when she starts CC next year that there are going to be some tears.

that said, i am pretty chuffed to be able to spend time at home with her too without the stress of outside work, so i guess there are pros and cons with everything.

AFM: well as i mentioned we have had a few really terrible days/weeks as the girls have been on again off again sick. DD1 is coming home with all the lurgies from CC and we are copping the brunt of it all! arrghhh! both of them have been incredibly unsettled and we have been working on only 3 ish hours of sleep a night (and no day sleeps from marta at all...oh how grumpy she has been from that!!). thankfully though we seem to have turned a corner (touch wood) and last night we had a normal night, i can only hope that it lasts but no doubt when DD1 goes back to CC we'll get another present
Marta during this time has been developing and growing so fast. she now knows how to throw food off the table to the dog , how to pull herself up to the mirror and give herself some kisses and just generally she is alot more communicative and able to express her desires (ie pick me up woman and put me in the jolly jumper before i vomit hahahahaha).

if only i wouldnt feel so sleep deprived it would be perfect....a girl can dream right??
