    Jols - like the new name. I didn't know who it was at first I hope everyone is on the mend!!

    We have been very busy lately - it's silly season early! Yesterday we went to the MHCN for Miss J's 8m check up. She's 7.9kg and 69cm so all average. The only thing she did say is that she isn't "babbling" enough in saying things like "mummum, dada, baba" etc so she wanted to refer her to an audiologist to get her hearing checked We were a bit hesitant as she is making lots of noise and sounds and can clearly hear as she wakes up if DD1 coughs during the night Maybe we should have got it just to rule anything out.

    Last night was awful as I was up every couple of hours with Miss J crying and wanting feeds and then DD1 wet the bed - so I'm tired and cranky today! Early night for me tonight I think.

    Yeah she passed the hospital test just fine. She makes noise and sounds just not the "right" ones apparently.

    I forgot to add she has just started waving - it is so cute. It sounds like she is saying "hi" when she does it too.

    Hey Jols - New user name! Nice. I am going ot change mine too. Thinking of changing it to Lilima as that is what J calls E.

    Nai - E says mum, bub, ga, dad, but she can't wave, doesn't crawl..... So I think it is a bit of an over reaction. Hopefully everyone sleeps better in your house tonight.
    Yeah - they never told us about the railway works. THe only reason I know that it wil lbe going on the rest of this week and possibly next is that I called Vline and complained about the lack of communication. Honestly all night you hear "beep, beep" as the trucks reverse, then "CRASH" as they dump a load. At one stage they were hammering, and i incorporated it into a dream and thought someone was knocking on the front door!

    Jols - Poor little pet with an ear infection. I hope it improves soon,.

    Doesn't it feel like winter here again in good old Melbs!

    Olive, love the new name. Sorry to hear you're unwell. It so sucks big time. Hope you're getting some rest this afternoon.
    Meg - Gggrrr at train work near your house! DP used to live near trainlines (industry ones) and they were heaps noisy with squealing brakes etc at all hours so I know what you're going through. Can you talk your DH into going away for a few days?
    Holly - whoot on getting your uni assignments done!
    Nai - I think if you're not worried about J's hearing then it's fine. Honestly, they want all the kids they see to fit into the textbook and that is so unrealistic. If she's making noises and 'talking' she's doing great. There's an 8mth old in my mums group IRL who never makes a sound. I'd be more worried about that personally. J says adadad, adee, dididi, blahblahblah. A whole range and it changes every day it seems. I have heard mum but not for a long time

    to everyone else!

    AFM - I am finally starting to feel a bit human again although my cough for the first hour I'm up would wake the dead After whinging in here the other day about J not sleeping much during the day he's breaking records now!! Yesterday we had a 3 hour morning sleep (then three more 40mins naps) today we've had a 2 hour sleep and he's now been down another 2.5hours again. Can't believe it. It's so random, I have no idea what is different about the past 2 days. I should have got heaps more done but I kept expecting him to wake up so I've wasted the time

    Olive- love the name change! Hope your feeling better, glad Dh remembered your birthday in the end...i bet you would eb crabby as for your brother..that's not on..See u tomorrow

    Kaz- glad ur finally feeling better, yay on the day sleeps

    Nai- I wouldn't worry too much about the hearing especially as u had her heaing checked in hosptial..Lewis doesn't make the typical mum dad sounds but has heaps others...I'm waiting for his check up so he has more time to "achieve" their goals..Go with you mummy instinct..

    Meg- will loke out for the new name- so cute with DS saying DD name like that

    We have had a super busy weekend and week was DD 4th birthday yesterday so spending today recovering from all the excitement!! Lewis slept so crap last night, but it was a bad night out of 4 ok ones so I shoudn't not try to complain too much

    I'm loving the weather here atm.
    Ok going to sound dumb but I have only got Olive on facebook, how do I add anyone else..sounds like you guys chat in there too.
