I still check, just don't have much to say

DS1 is in Kindy for 2.5 days a week (in WA kindy is the year before pre primary) and he's loving it

DD tt'd herself at the start of the year. I wasn't expecting it lol. One day she chucked a tanty about not wanting a nappy on, so i let her go bare bum, after a couple of hours she comes up to me and said she needed to go to the toilet, so i took her, and she did wees in the toilet, a couple of hours later same thing again. She's had barely any accidents, even DS2 arriving didn't set her back A couple of weeks after she day trained we went without for nights and i think she's wet the bed maybe twice in the last 4-5 months. DS1 was so much harder to tt.

DS2 is growing well, he has reflux though, so it hasn't been an easy time, but the smiles and coos make the hard times dealable.

We just had a long weekend here in WA and we took the kids camping and fourwheel driving. Had a bit of a mummy and daddy fail though, DS2's suitcase was left at home, thankfully his blankets and nappies were not in there, so went into the car and there was a couple of changes of clothes in the nappy bag so we managed ok. The kids had fun though which is the main thing.

STML i hope F's ankle gets better quickly and properly

M4SS I hope the teeth aren't too bad to fix

Hi everyone!

We are all well over here.

DD TT'd shortly after DS was born. About a month later she also night trained, wasn't expecting that but it's nice to only have one in nappies.
She is going really well. Has a bit of an attitude but I guess she just takes after me Talks non stop unless she is around other people and then she goes a bit shy for a while.

DS is 7 months! Holy crap where did that time go. He is my big chubba boy and absolutely adores his big sister. Seriously she can do the smallest thing and it has him in a giggling fit.

STML where are you off on holiday? We are taking the kids on holiday end of July/early August. Visiting BIL & SIL on central coast, then to Sydney for 2 nights to visit family/friends, then to Bega to stay with my Aunty & Uncle for a couple of nights on their dairy farm, then we are off to Melbourne for 5 nights and then Canberra for 3 nights and home! A massive driving trip!!! We have lots planned so hopefully it's going to be an awesome trip.
Hope F's fracture heals soon

M4SS how are your DDs teeth?


Oh I also started Uni last week! Studying Bachelor of Teaching for Primary School.
So far so good. Although with work, 2 kids and study it's a lot of juggling.

Hi all!

Great to get an email saying there has been some action in this group

M4SS - hope DD's teeth are ok (and so is your wallet).

STML - Hope F's ankle is on the road to recovery and you can enjoy your holiday!

K+M+A+P - your holiday sounds great!

AFUs - We just got back from a holiday to the Sunshine Coast which was great. We took our time driving there (staying overnight in Ballina on the way up and then Armidale on the way home) because boy does it take longer to drive anywhere with kiddies (especially Jackson who doesn't need to go to the toilet until about 10 minutes after we have just stopped for a break). My grandparents live up there, and it was great to introduce them to Miss B when we visited them one afternoon.

Miss B starts daycare this week! Just on Thursdays, and while I am looking forward to a day on my own for a while (I am not going back to work until the end of September), I am a little worried as she is going through some separation anxiety (even when I leave her with DH), and she will only reluctantly take a bottle (and only one particular bottle at that). But we have a few months to work out any kinks.

In other news, DH and I just put a deposit down on a block of land, so we will be building again sometime after Christmas. I swore I wouldn't build again, but I am now looking forward to it! FX it will be as straight forward as our last build (5 years ago).

How exciting Heidles! Hope the building goes well.
Good luck with B commencing daycare. Patrick has been in since Feb now as I went back to work then. So far so good we have had no issues. He's a pretty relaxed baby though and doesn't really care who has him.
Are you expressing for her or giving formula in the bottle? Hopefully she takes to it okay if she realises that's all she's going to be getting. How is she on solids?
