Its been 2 months since my last blog!!!

Just thought id drop in and say hi.

Not much has been happening here. My new job is fantastic. I love that i actually have a role. And i have only been there for a month, but already i have my own claims to deal with, and i have made some of my own contacts, which is great.

Austin is loving being at school 5 days, but i am a little concerned about another boy there that is biting him. My daycare lady has told me that it is a boy who is the same age as Austin who wants the toys that Austin has, but Austin wont share. I am on a mission this weekend to try to teach SHARING... but i dont like my chances in 2 days. Any suggestions???

I have asked the carer to talk to the other boys mother to get her to teach him not to bite, but im not sure how that will go either...

Other than that, not much is happening. I am FINALLY back at the gym, only 2 days a week, but it is better than nothing. I ave decided that i am better off doing classes, coz i am pretty lazy out in the general gym area, so the only 2 i can do are body attack and body step, but they are alot of fun, so im happy with that.

I am shocked that next weekend is easter. Where is the year going???  The weekend after easter, we are having our kitchen, dining room and sunroom tiled, yay, no more crappy lino. I am taking Austin out to my workmates farm that weekend, she has a little girl who Austin can play with and they have little chickens and stuff which he has never seen before. I am looking forward to watching him play out there.

We have invested in a potty and we are going to start toilet training soon.... well as soon as i have taught him to share lol.

OK, i have to go. Have a great weekend everyone!!

 Sounds like life is rolling along just fine for you Cass, great news about your job especially that you like it, that makes all the difference. As far as teaching Austin how to share, best of luck, I feel that is better taught with having other children around, hard to teach sharing with no-one around, pity the day care lady couldn't take the time to teach him. Hope the other Mum has better luck teaching her boy.

What adventures Austin will have when you go out to the farm.

Take care.

Love Janice

Congratulations on the new job, glad it is going well for you! I know exactly what you mean by the ime has flown, it seems as we get older the days get shorter, or we just have more responsibilities to keep us busy. i can't believe I have made it through a whole term at school already!!!

As for the biting at school thing, well I am also on  par with you there, Ratbag got bitten 2 days in a row by the same child, they are no longer allowed to play together as this biting was totally unprovoked according to the centre staff. I can't really offer any advice as centres have differnet policies, but it sounds like you are attempting to take control and sort it out which is always a good step. Well done.

Have fun with the toilet training, we started that some time ago (feels like forever) and pretty much have it down pat but some days they will turn around and decide for you that it should have been a nappy day and pee all over the floor every time. Best of luck, I'm sure clever little austin will pick it up in no time.

Well take care and I hope things keep going well for you guys! xx.

Its good to hear all is good your way. Yes i know how you feel how time flies by so quick, easter next weekend, then it will be halfway through the year and soon it will be Christmas again... lol...

Good luck trying to teach Austin to share, im still having trouble with my 6 and 3 yo trying to share with there toys... lol... I tell them "sharing is caring" and to always remember that...

Ah potty training, how fun... soon they will love going to the toilet and using up all the toilet paper in one session... lol...

Take care
