What have we been up to?

Hello there world
It seems a while since we last posted some pic's up here or wrote a little note, and all i can say is that we've been a bit busy.

So here is a little catch up.

This week Daisy in on her third week at nursery. She now goes Tuesday and Friday mornings and so far so good, she seems to really like it, a few days she has said she doesn't want to go but that seemed to be related to the fact that i'd just said no to her watching her Dora DVD or to her wearing her bridesmaid's dress to nursery.

She is also now almost completely potty trained, the first week of her nursery she saw that all the other children were using the little children's toilets so she wanted to, too, and refused to put on pull ups, she wanted to wear pants, but all Daisy's no 1's went down the legs and none of it went in the potty.
Then i bought some Bright Bots training pants which are still cotton like pants, but a bit thicker than pants therefore a little more absorbent, and she suddenly got it.
We have had hardly any accidents this week so far, only one this morning at Music and i think it was because we had to go quite far to find the toilet, but she still managed to go more when we go to the toilet.

Iris is now in with Daisy, she's sleeping in Daisy's old cot opposite Daisy's big girl bed (not sure if this is permanent or not) it is possibly only temporary whilst we sort out the office, but who knows.
Tonight is the second night and so far so good, last night she went down easily but then cried for quite a while even whilst being picked up, burped etc... but eventually after five mins of crying she dropped off.
Tonight however she fed and fed and fed and then vomited it all up again which she hasn't done for a while (she used to do it every night for about two / three weeks) i think she was just being very greedy. After vomiting she was quite happy, she had to be changed again, then i tried to cuddle and burp her but she cried loudly whilst Marc tried to read Daisy a story so i fed her again and she quickly dropped off and is still asleep three hours later.

We have all had nasty colds for what seems like forever but actually all started on Friday night for me, very quickly we all seem to have caught them and i even thought i'd gotten rid of mine but now it's back, horay.
Roll on summer.
Lucky old Sarah V and Rachel & Josh out there in NZ about to welcome in summer time.
