Well Jazz ate everything she was given at daycare yesterday so that's good. She also ate all her dinner (wasn't a healthy dinner mind you, she had KFC popcorn chicken and chips).

She's starting at a new FDC on Monday. She'll go there Monday & Friday at this stage and then by the start of next year she'll be going to this lady Mon through to Friday because the other lady is retiring but will do some babysitting now and then so I'll make sure we keep in touch with letters and photos at the very least, maybe a visit sometimes. I'll really miss her.

Hoping to be back at work tomorrow. I've been off sick most of the week with a dreadful cold type thing. Well. Might do a little housework and watch a DVD and relax.

poopy's starting more words in the last few days.. car, flower and is getting more bossy..haha. today when i got home from work and steve was feeding him, he 'ordered' me to sit down in front of him.

danni - wont all that oil kfc make her tummy feel yucky?

I don't know, never really thought about that.

Jazz is now obsessed with the rides in supermarkets. She's been on them a few times, at our local shopping centre, they have a few of those carosel type ones where 3 kids can go in at once. She's been for a ride on those where other people with kids have offered to pay, tonight she went on one that we paid for...that was it. She didn't want to get off when it finished and any time she saw another ride thing she would let go of our hands and run over to it and then throw a huge tantie when we took her away from it. We're trying to get her to say bye bye to things when we don't want her to do something or when it's time to keep walking - it wasn't working tonight though.

Another thing that I thought was so cute. At FDC the FDC lady's grandson who is 3...we'll call him B...said to me "Jazzy's mum, can I come to Jazzy's house to play?" I said maybe another day after I've gotten to know his mummy better. Then he kept saying "You get to know my mummy so I can play at Jazzy's house" And when Jazz left, she gave him 2 big kisses! It was so cute. When Jazz & I got into the car, I said "Is B your boyfriend?" and she said "Yeah, Lub B..."

that's so cute! danni.. you must take a pic of them together! hehe

we let him sit on the rides occasionally but never put money in.. it can become a bad habit...

[Sammiejane]

Yeah MJ loves the rides too, i dont put any money in either, that way we can always get away after a bit of fun without tears etc.
When she is older and she can understand why sometimes she can and others she cant she occasionally will get some money, more from DH - personally i think they are a total waste of money... she gets just as mush fun from sitting on them anyway.

Danni - if you get KFC - which is something that you have to do at times, i know sometimes there just insint time... how about getting her the potato and gravey and some chicken peices that you can take the skin off, that way she will be getting less of the fatty stuff, just a suggestion thou.
sometimes we have fish and chips, i always have mashed veggies and cheese in the freezer that i thaw and she has some grilled fish. She does however LOVE dimsims and so we buy her a steamed one. there are always healthier ways of having fast food

Prama - Mj is really bossy too

GO SAINTS!!!!!!

[~clover~]

No news yet SJ?

[prama]

yeah.. any news yet??

yeah.. i think those rides are a waste of money.. a bit of a rip off if you ask me!

poopy loves dimsums when we go for yum cha. we give him the steamed ones too. they are soo yummy. chips- i've given ones ive made myself, oven baked so not deep fried.

the only indulgence we give him is chocolate milkshake but just a little each time and very occasionally. needless to say, like me, he loves it. but i reckon he's got his whole life to try different things, so we can slowly introduce different things as he gets older.

[Sammiejane]

MJ doesnt really like chips oven baked or bought wich is good, its why we have mashed chessy veg loads - im actually cooking a batch now as DSS LOVES it too - would prefer it to salad, but still has chips if they are on offer.

the bad things that she has is shapes or chips if we have them for DSS - when we went away for a week, it was his car snacks, we had different ones for her - obviously she noticed and it didnt work well - but sge has them so infrequently that i dont have a problem with it really.

LOL poopy like choclate milkshake - his namesake!

Nope no noew yet - i will tell you as i said, 2 ww

[prama]

lol/. oven baked are hard work.. i only spray olive oil on the potatoes w skin on and bake them..
i think kids forget abt snacks if they dont see them.

[all girls]

Popcorn chicken isn't too fatty i find the real pieces of chicken are much more greasy. It's much harder not allowing little one's snacks when you have the bigger one's eating them and Summer usually eats lots of fast food and lollies when she is at her Dad's place which really makes it hard it actually really annoys me because she comes home sometimes and hasn't eaten breakfast or eaten any thing healthy that day at all... Just one of the many things you have to deal with thru divorce...

Yes any news yet SJ?????

Well I got my brace off today and should be off crutches in a week or so YAY!!!!! Can't do much exercise for 6 weeks tho which is a bit annoying...

Ah better go Codie just got home from the Cook Islands
