Hi Girls,
Sorry its been so long since I posted on here

forgive me?
MB - Austin is such a treasure!!! I cannot believe how fast the last year has gone, although I do remember reading about your super fast home birth when Austin was born!!! I hope you all have a fantastic birthday weekend!! His pressie looks awesome!!!
Well, a quick update from me:
Libby can now do her ring stacker

she dances around to any advert/ music going and says "danz" its soooooo cute!!! Will try to get a vid of her, but every time she see's me with the camera, she stops dancing and makes a beeline for it
And my little princess slept all the through the night last night. On Wed night we did a bit of controlled crying when she wouldn't go to bed (as DH doesn't keep her upstairs if he is feeding her and she doesn't fall aslep, he just brings her down and announces "she's not tired" and put her in her play pen with her toys!!!

so we are trying to counteract that as now if DH feeds her, she kicks a fuss so that she comes back downstairs!!). Anyway, she was unhappy with the new rules (of course) and was crying, not distressed crying, just moaning. MIL came up & told us 'It wasn't right!! We would end up with an insecure child blah blah blah" I told her that it wasn't her decision to make, and that she wouldn't be insecure, as we were stroking her head, and saying "it'll be ok" when she was really crying t out, we didn't leave her in the bedroom on her own to cry as we couldn't bring ourselves to, but once she was in the cot we just didn't pick her up out of bed.
She took 45 to get settled to sleep, and only cried for 10 mins of that!! Last night, she didn't cry at all, we just kept lying her down when she stood up etc. She settled in 30 mins, and no tears!!! In your eye MIL!!! LOL!!! & she slept all the way through the night, we heard her wake at 1am, she was coughing, then we left her a few mins, peeked in and she had settled herself back to sleep!!
I'm sure its not going to be all plain sailing from here, but I though that was a great start/ result from the previous nights efforts?!
Anyway, I hope everyone else is good?
