Hi ladies!

Fleur it's so funny, I keep going to type Jasp! Arlea sounds so cute! Ash has also embraced the power or the tantrum. We've only had three real ones so far, but OMG they were full on. I kid you not an hour of throwing himself on the floor and complete dramatics. The first time I thought there was something physically wrong with him and was set to rush him off to the doctor, but the minute we ran out the front door it all stopped. I thought I knew what a tantrum was, but after that I discovered that I had know idea until then.

We've just gotten back from 3 weeks in the US visiting DH's family. Ash handled all the travel really well and had a lovely time. It was amazing we didnt have one tantrum the entire time we were away, but sure enough within 24 Hours of getting home they started again. We're also having some sleep issues, part of it is jet lag I think, he's also gotten very used to having us rock him to sleep because that is what we had to do while we were away. Hopefully it will all sort itself out in the next week or so though cos he has two very weary parents right now...

It's been lovely watching him transform into a true toddler oveer the last couple of months, he's so much fun and so amazed by the world around him, it's really giving me a new appreciation of the simple things iykwim. His language is just starting to develop, we've probably got about eight or nine everyday words now with no and uhoh being the favorites, but every day he seems to mimic something new.

Hope everyone is we'll. I've missed our little catchups in here
