meela - nice, cooper was 3.76kg, not to shabby, and yes we just had to look at eachother and BAM pregnant wowzers 8.1kg thats a very healthy little miss you have there, well done. are you breast feeding or formula? coops is on formula now but i breastfed for 10 weeks, wish i could have gone longer but the universe had other ideas lol. where abouts do you work? and thats awesome your DP is gonna be a SAHD!! i think more men should do it if they can

Pretz - keeping all my fingers and toes crossed Noah sleeps well for you tonight, at least hes happy at that time, Cooper screams his lungs out. enjoy your bath

Brydz - thats so crap about Vs name... again. at least its just the middle name and they arent disputing his first name, after all when is your middle name ever used other that offical documents. that shes messing with you again, what a poohead.

AFM - eeeep got a phone call from the lady at the child care centre that i sent a resume to, i missed the call but she left a message saying she wont be in the office til next monday but to call her then and we'll organise a time for me to 'look around' so that sounds really positive and if i call her first thing on monday i could even go out to the RAAF base where the centre is and see her then, so fingers crossed ill have a job soon
soooooo we tried controlled crying, didnt let him cry longer than 5 mins without reassuring him that i was still there by kissing him and patting his bum and it only took 45 mins (which is like a third of the time it would have taken if we were holding him and on top of that he would be screaming and punching and kicking and pinching) so yeh 45 mins for the first night, im so happy with that. i pray it gets easier coz i hate hearing him cry and it took all my strength not to pick him up. and once again for those against CC plz dont hurt me! i was at the end of my teather and it was the last resort. anyways off to bed myself

ps can you tell i like the new smilies!! how cute are they?
