January JellyBean mummies

[millward329]

Leanne tiger in the tree is where you have baby facing away from you with their head on your forearm. Your other arm comes through their legs and your hand can massage their tummy. You should be able to google a picture of it. Also Michael didn't use to like his moses basket but my friend made a nest in it with towels the other day so now he feels really secure. Might be worth a go for Toby if you want to put him back in : )

Laura - great gain for Quinn!!!

Lisa - no we are not chaining the travel date. Kieran will have his jabs when we get back instead.

I am extremely jealous of the talk of meeting up. I don't know the UK geography very well but am pretty sure Southampton is very far from all you.......

Unfortunately hubby can only stay for 2 weeks due to work, but my mums coming back with us so I won't have to fly with Holly on my own. Have just started packing, its unbelieveable how much stuff this child needs! She's only little!! Oh and on that note the not-so-lil porker is now 12lb!

Not long now Lisa Who will be looking after your little dog while you're away?

He's going into kennels hate putting him in them but we don't know anyone out here to have him so no choice. Had a horrible dream that he was neglected in them last night tho.

Here is my little blurb for the front page:

My name is Tara-Lynn I'm 23 years old and currently living in Ontario, Canada. I'm now the mother of Rhys David born on January 25th weighing a big 9lbs 5oz! I'm currently pumping and feeding and breast feeding when I can but he still has a hard time latching on since being tongue tied at birth. I have two crazy dogs that are both two. Ones a lab/husky and the other is a puggle. And I'm an Early Childhood Educator teaching children 4 and 5 years old.

Not sure, possibly. I'm in Mississauga and that's kinda funny you're an ECE too, lol. I wish I could stay home but I'm going to have to go back once the mat leave money comes to an end.

It's far from me to...But Southhampton and Tilehurst are close (ish, 2hours or so)

Im only staying home because my daycare is ********. I can't afford it. I only work part time hours which is great because i get to spend the day with the kids but because I have 2 children now it costs more and the daycare told me that my kids would be in daycare half hour longer than their half day rate so they have to charge me a full day. Even with my discount my Oh would still have to pay for daycare so id be working for nothing.
Im actually really stressed out about it because I have to find a way to make money. We could live off just what he makes but we couldn't do anything extra like even go out for dinner and forget saving to buy a house in the future. Before I had Quinn my mom use to watch Tessa for me for super cheap but her health is not so good anymore, infact i had to take sick leave from work at 25 weeks due to her health causing stress related problems with my pregnancy and pre-term labour. So with her health I dont trust her to watch my daughter let alone my baby boy. so right now im looking into ways i can make money at home that are not childcare related because we are not allowed to do that in our home.

The cost of childcare is crazy especially infant care! I'll be able to afford just Rhys but not sure about later on when I have another child. Not sure how much you can make but have you thought about maybe selling Avon, Partylite or something along those lines?
