Nicole - GL for today, hope Aaron's HC is nothing to worry about mate Will be thinking of you today. Keep us posted! And yes, I do look as hot IRL as my avi (NOT!!) LOL
Krystie - Hugs re your sister going away, I know how hard it is to have family far and wide (with my brothers in WA and VIC, and Dad in Broome), but it does make the time you spend together precious and special! I hope Kyson has a little brother or sister when she comes home.
BG - I love the Dark Knight, but yeah, you gotta be in the mood to watch that kinda movie, we watched American Beauty last night, I'd forgotten how good it was
Vic - arrrrgh re going through the bin, I have had to do that a few times when I have accidently thrown things out and its rather unpleasant hahahahaha. Love your pics of the outdoor cinema, I think they have one here in the botanical gardens, I should check it out.
Amy/All - Re the wonder week question - there is a Week 36 wonder week (Bailey went through it between Christmas and NY), I found that was when he started waking at 4 and 5am - arrrgggghhh!! But other than some sleeping issues it was a pretty 'easy' wonder week this time. On the sleep issues, my amendments to our routine have really paid off, massively in fact! Bailey is now sleeping 7pm - 6-630am with NO wakeups most of the time, he hasn't had an overnight bottle since NY and has 2 x 1.5 hour day naps, and when I lay him on my lap for a day sleep he is usually asleep within a few minutes, sometimes as soon as I lay him down he shuts his eyes and goes to sleep, I really cant believe it!! Putting him in his sleeping bag during the day works a treat as he associates it with sleep, so we are no longer wrapping, and I added an afternoon bottle seeing he has dropped the night one and this seems to suit him too. I hope things dont change too much as the way things are currently are just frigin fantastic and easy. Having never had a baby who slept through the night, at 8.5 months I am discovering what a huge difference it makes to everything (my own health and demeanour also!!). I totally agree with Bella's post a month or so ago too, as sorting out the day naps certainly seems to impact the quality of the night sleep. I remember there was a girl that used to come to our mothers group in the early days who's baby slept through 12 hours from a few weeks old, as a result she had time to read books, watch movies, keep her house clean (apparantly!!) and have a quality relationship with her husband and I was insanely jealous (and wanted to punch her in the head LOL), now I understand how...
