Yeah, ok, so he’s really not a baby any more!
Wow, 4 years! I swear it has gone faster than it did with the 3 older kids! I asked him how old he is, and the standard response is “I’m still 4 Mummy!” which considering that at the time he’d been 4 for all of a few hours was rather funny! Very cute though too!
Being the slack mummy that I am, we didn’t have a party for him, but Rhiannon made a birthday cake for him to blow out the candles.
And here’s the birthday boy at the end of the day - obviously tired out by the proceedings! (which unusual in itself, he’s usually a night-owl!)

Just when we thought the boys were going to miss out at Thursday’s special Cherub’s Kiss stocking, take a look at what Lesley has been up to this week!
Cherub’s Kiss - Back into it
May 5th, 2009
We’ve been talking for a while about holding regular ANN get-togethers here in Brisbane, and this week will be the first ‘official’ gathering on the Southside. Fondly dubbed “Nappies Anonymous” by addicts already in (unofficial) attendance, lol, it’s an opportunity for clothies new and old to come along and talk about nappies with other addicts enthusiasts!
The ANN display kit will also be available to look at - it contains a variety of different nappy styles and brands for you to get an idea of what things look like.
We will also be trying to have a topic for discussion at each get-together. This month we’ll be looking at how to find the right size nappy to suit your baby’s size and shape, and tips for how to adjust the nappy to suit your child. Feel free to bring along any nappies from your own stash that may be causing you headaches at the moment!!
So, the when and where details…
We’re hoping to meet up on the first Thursday each month, so this coming Thursday May 7th 2009.
The venue is the Cloth Nappy Shop,
6/76-82 Queens Rd, Kingston Q4114.
From 10am onwards, the ‘official’ meetup will probably finish up around 12pm, but you’re welcome to hang out afterwards until the shop closes at 2pm. If you can bring along a plate of food to share, that would be great. Tea, coffee and water provided.
I think that’s all the crucial details, PLMK if I’ve forgotten something important!
You’re welcome to come along and see what it’s like for your first visit or two, but subscription/membership of the Australian Nappy Network will be preferred after that initial period. Subscription/membership forms are of course available at the meet-up, or you can sign up online.
