I thought terrible two's didn't start until they were two....
Posted 7:13 AM on Fri-2-Nov-2012
My daughter is 16 months and now and generally a good girl however these last couple of weeks have been terrible. She throws wobblies over the smallest things, I can't even leave the room without her having a fit. She is really clingy and wakes up crying and cries often for ages. The hardest thing about this age is she can't tell me what the problem is. Is it normal to have this going on at 16 months? I have had her checked at the dr just incase but everything is fine, except for her teeth coming through which I can imagine is uncomfortable..... Is it only her or quite common?

Toilet training time
Posted 11:04 AM on Wed-2-Nov-2011
I have been putting off toilet training Miss2. Usually my kids have been well and truly toilet trained by now but Miss2 has shown no real signs of interest and when I did try to place her on her potty or on the loo, we had major tears. So, I thought it best to leave it for a while longer and try again when she was ready.  Anyway, yesterday while I was doing the housework, I couldn't figure out why she was crying at the back door and wanted her daddy (unknown to me he had placed her on the toilet the night before). When I finally realised she wanted to go to the toilet I placed her on her special toilet seat and low and behold she pooed... Yay!!!  So now we are in ful Read More...

We did it!
Posted 10:00 PM on Tue-4-Oct-2011
They say it takes two weeks to break a habit.  We did it!  Dummy be gone!  Little Miss 22 mths only ever had her dummy for going to sleep, but I was thinking, geez it's time to get rid of this thing!  I tried once a few months ago, and boy what a nightmare - I gave in after about 3 hrs of her not really settling down.  Two weeks ago though, without even planning to, at bedtime, I pretended I had lost her dummy!  I didn't make a big deal, just shrugged my shoulders and said I didn't know where it was....  Little Miss seemed to think it was in the car boot...?  But she actually settled down, with only a few extra cuddles needed, and slept Read More...

Morning Escapades
Posted 8:36 AM on Thu-29-Sep-2011
How is it that Miss2 can adjust to daylight savings so quickly, when everyone else including myself are still struggling with it. I thought maybe I might at least get a nice sleep in while we all adjust, but no! Two days after day light savings started miss2 was back to waking at 5:45am.   What is it with 5:45am, how in the world does she manage to wake up at the exact same time on most days of the week. Does a neighbour slam a car door or perhaps the dirds are starting to tweet at exactly that time. It baffles me, there are certainly no roosters or anything living anywhere near us. Her internal clock must just wired to wake at this time :P.  &nbs Read More...

Teething Again.
Posted 2:12 PM on Tue-9-Aug-2011
Caitlyn is getting her two year old molars. I have heard mixed things about them - 1) is they are the worst 2) They are not as bad as the Eye Teeth/ K9's. Which one is it? What did your children do during the final teething stages??

Thumb sucking sucks
Posted 9:24 PM on Tue-26-Jul-2011
My youngest darling daughter (18 months old today) is having to give up her thumb sucking. She has given herself an infected thumb for the second time in as many months. The doctor said we have to stop her thumb sucking as it will reoccur. Apparently a moist thumb is the perfect place for an infection to grow. We tried mittens but she pulled them off in a flash. We tried the "Stop It" nail polish and she pulled some funny faces but within 10 minutes the thumb was back in. We did bandage her thumb when it was oozing and that stopped the sucking but it also gave everyone sleepless nights as she couldn't settle or resettle herself. When she is awake we tell her to take her thumb out and sh Read More...

Posted 4:04 PM on Wed-3-Nov-2010
Well DS (13months) got called a girl today. He was dressed in shorts and a t shirt...all pretty "boyish" and a lady said what i beautiful wee girl I have. *sigh*Perhaps its time for his first hair cut?So it is getting kinda long, it has to be swept to the side to stop it falling in his eyes, the back is at his shoulders...but it has this cute wave to it!Perhaps it's just me not wanting to let go of my baby? Ooooh or maybe it's time for another baby :)I can do it!I will get his hair cut!

Even toddlers recognise brands and ads! Scary or just a fact ...
Posted 10:47 AM on Thu-18-Mar-2010
How scary is this: a researcher has just discovered that toddlers are name-dropping brands!Yes folks, news.com.ausays toddlers know that McDonald's is the biggest and most popular brand, but others included Hot Wheels, Lego, My Little Pony, Coke, Pepsi, Toyota and even Shell.And the academic in charge of the research - which took place in Brisbane kindergartens - said toddlers who could barely talk were choosing their playmates based on the brands they associate them with. Sheesh"Children in our study were judging other children based on the brands they use, saying things like `I don't want to play with him if they've got McDonald's, I don't want to be fat' Read More...
