I'm living here (Sydney) temporarily at the moment. We might also emigrate, depends how we feel when we get back next year.

We have a 21 month old daughter.

CAT me if you want to discuss it!

I emigrated here (Adelaide)last June.

Where do you think you will be going?

eidsvold - I didnt realise you had had your 3rd!!! Congratulations, I must have missed the birth announcement! Hope all is going well.

she is 2 weeks old harrogate

Harrogatemum · 08/04/2007 09:59

awwww bless - how is it all going? How are your other two coping with the new arrival?

not bad actually - she does manage to sleep for stretches - especially at night so that is a help.

dd2 is obsessed with her and can't sotp kissing her - if you ask dd2, dd3 is her baby. Dd1 was unsure at first but has come around. Although we are haivng some attention seeking behaviour from dd1 and dd2 - be interesting to see how that changes when dh goes back to work and it is just us girls and our usual routine.
