I like the 21 month gap with my boys... it is hard work at times though! but isnt everything! LOL I want a big age gap before the next. I think I need time to collect myself and work on me for a while! (also the need for a bigger house etc!) 
Cam is grizzly with his clingyness! it can drive me mad some days... I struggle to find things to occupy him! Anyone have any good learning/development toys to recommend?? I just got him this cool train thing but its so noisey!!

We just borrow a Poo & Friends activity table from the toy library and Elle is loving it! I like the toy library as you can get new things every couple of weeks. It is $70 for a 12mth membership and you can hire 3 new toys every week (i think) for no additional charge.

HI Ladies,
Welcome Busimum.... thanks for the advice etc guys.
Toy Library you should be able to look us in the phone book or something i would think. The only thing tho, the reason i haven't joined, is because you have to work in there 3 times a year or something.
Things going pretty ok up here, Vincent taking a few steps, won't be long and he'l be walking. he said high chair the other day! OMG!
we are ttc, reasonably actively i guess. just hoping house unting won't take too much fo a stress on my body and we will eb able to get preggy soonish. We will be moving house i would say by the end of next month. Have to be out of here by 30 Nov but hoping to buy a house closer to my parents in Papakura.
Well, not much to tell around here i guess, feeling a bit better about things again. Thanks again....
Vincent sleeping better again. Must have just been a real changing time for him as he learnt to step i think. We have mastered max 5 steps so far
Chonny

Not sure if that is the case at all of them as that isn't part of our membership to the Epsom one.
Glad everyone is doing well. We've talked about TTC but are not ready for number 2 quite yet. Elle is also going through a really clingy stage...i'm guessing this is the separation anxiety phase.

That sounds like it could be a very tiring time Fiona,
Which toy library are you at?
I don't think that, even tho i'd like it now, i don't think we will get preggy soon. The stress of house buying etc....
Oh well, it'l happen when it happens right...

Hi Ladies,
i don't think i told you that on the day our offer on the house got accepted, Vincent started walking. He now seems like he's trying to run coz he gets real fast....sometimes too fast that he falls over.lol.
Well, 2nd ear infection in three weeks, hopefully this lot of Antibiotics will clear it up. my usually active boy lay on the bed stil watching a video this am. not like him at all! poor wee baby.
How is everyone else getting on? There's been no talking in here lately. Rach, hows the pregnancy going? Deb, hows the ttc going?

HELLO EVERYONE!!! I cant believe some of you are pregnant...CONGRATULATIONS..>Are you mad??? he he
Just saw this thread! I havent been on Oh Baby much..Seem to be forever busy as Mark is constantly away for weeks on end now in charge of jobs here there and everywhere!
Blake is MASSIVE. He is 14kg and 82cm tall.
He loves food and gobbles up loads of it. Has two sleeps and is tucked in at 6 to wake at 6:30.Has a wicked sense of humour and laughs all day long. Has figured out cupboards, drawers, doors and is into everything like all your wee bubs!
He is a real joy to have. We have a problem with eczema and think he will have asthma so trying to work on that!!
Any brilliant ideas for eczema would be great!
Was great reading all about your little ones and hearing all your news...
XX

Hi everyone. We've all been a bit quite lately huh!
Elle is still under 9Kgs :) Just a wee thing. She isn't eating much of anything...everything get's spat out or thrown on the floor.
She is going through a really clingy phase. She wants to be carried everywhere all the time and if you don't pick her up, she will cry and cry and cry (we recorded 25mins of major crying for absolutely no reason). When she finally stops crying she is 100% fine so who knows how we deal with that! I don't know whether to walk away or put an arm around her and quiety wait for her to stop. It happens several times a day.
Got 6 teeth and about 19 words and is running everywhere! Still can't get herself up from sitting or lying down though.
