Hello everyone.
Sanchez - we missed you while you were gone! Ironic considering you were physically closer to me :-p Sounds like V is changing huh, lots of things to look forward to. I hope bootcamp is going well. Are you going back to midwifery? I can't recall if you had started or just done the training. You'll have a whole new perspective now anyway. Whats the plan for V while you're at work? Thats so cute that she loves cheese in everything -they all have their own little quirks hey... Hope the tan-tys are under control? Tadhg grizzles when he wants to do something (usually stand up) but he hasn't started the full on tantrums yet.

Taurean - wow Izzy is developing in leaps and bounds. Don't you love it how they get all proud of themselves for doing new things! Tadhg thinks he is so cool for not holding on to his toys /toy box with his hands standing up - he just leans a hip into it lol. He can just walk with the walker, but not too good at pushing it along unless i help a bit. I think its hard to get the right pace. The s26 experience was a one off - we are now back to very firm BM's and he cries everytime, the Dr said he has a small fissue so he is on a bowel loosener and having lots of prunes & raisins - still not good, poor wee thing. If it wasn't for that I might be claiming a near perfect child!
Maybe I should try Karicare and see if it helps. This week I got a new sippy cup with a straw, and he LOVES it! so I think that will help too.

Art - man thats crazy talk having another baby already - eeck. I am planning on waiting a bit longer than i originally thought now, and have just been told we have to plan around RWC lol!! So no babies in Sept/Oct 2010 - best be after that, so Daddy can go to the Rugby. Poor A not coping well with getting sick. I'm so glad T seems to be fine now, albeit a bit snotty - long may it last!

Sangie - we are just planning a small party for T, although i bet it will be bigger than i'm thinking, as now family are starting to say they will make the effort to come (from different cities) which puts more pressure on! haha. We're not planning much, just a morning tea at our place, and I will try and do a cake - unless its egg free T wont be trying it anyway.

AM - hey! we are great now thanks. T is really so much better, and I have him on immunity drops from a natropath - no idea if they work, but he is healthy at the mo - so will keep giving them! Sorry to hear Sam is sick though Tadhg barely ate solids for over 2 weeks - and just when i was getting really worried he got better and ate again like a switch was flicked. Hopefully Sam will do the same soon. Woohoo on the crawling too! Still waiting here...

mom2PnE - sounds like you really need some support hun. Thinking positive thoughts for your whole family, esp Ty xx

Conors mum - welcome! Wow 6pm in bed - how many sleeps does he have in the day. I think my DH would be sad if T went to bed that early, as he is working regular hours so he would barely see him - but the idea sounds nice! Sounds like your DH is doing shiftwork anyway, so works out nicely.

Gabby - welcome - popular group huh ;-) Make yourself at home!

I've already said heaps - but I want to add that I had my first full night's sleep in a long while last night. T didn't wake at all after going down at 7pm, and didn't even stir enough to wake me - and somehow I didn't wake up just to check him, to pee, to have a drink etc NICE! I woke up by myself at 7:10am and T was still asleep! When we got up I realised he had sprouted a tooth overnight too - no fuss at all, what an angel
OK better go do something with my afternoon off. We have a mega weekend with my mum, Tim's mum and Tim's twin brother with his wife all coming to stay for varying lengths of time!
Lots of hugs and get well vibes to the sick ones xx
