Shell - when I went in to see my new manager a few weeks before Chrissy I only knew two people there!!!!!

I'm going back three days - Mon, Thurs, Fri. Really want to try pumping and having enough EBM for Izzy but we'll see. Can't stress myself out about it but I am hoping when I'm not feeding DD, I will be able to pump more. When I tried expressing in between feeds recently I was getting diddly squat!


Holly - oooooh maybe it is meant to be this house??? I found that it was easier if I wasn't too attached to any particular house, then I didn't care so much if it fell thru. Maybe try that attitude! Good luck, so exciting!!

Re baths, we have one every night as part of bed routine, unless she is out of whack for some reason. She does love them and I think realise its part of getting ready for bed. When we are at my parents'/sister's house she has a bath with her niece, so cute!

Nai, pinny, you poor things with the screaming babies! DD did that when she was sick/teething, so hard. I am so grateful she generally sleeps, once she is asleep! It is the getting to sleep part that sucks!

Meg - yes, yes! Isabel's Christmas day dress was only on her for like half an hour as she kept tripping over it crawling! Its a bit better for her as she crawls on her feet, not her knees, so she doesn't get things too dirty but she catches her feet on things which sucks.

Hoping she can wear it for her bday too but if we are in park she'll get filthy! Maybe she'll be walking by then??

How close does everything think they bubs are to walking???

Thanks for all the bday info, I think we are doing the right thing. The only problem is how to do toast in a park??? Can you bbq toast?? Wonder if there would be power points??

Hope everyone has a restful day...
