General discussion=)

Hi =) Yeah he is growing really fast. He's not into pulling everything out anymore which is good. He'll hopefully have a little brother or sister soon as we're trying for another baby. He has adjusted well to his new surroundings, my partners family are quite close so that's always something. It's just strange not being near mine as we are all very close. He's not started pre-school yet as he was still 2 when the new session begun. He starts in January though so he'll settle in more when he meets some little friends. How's your son coming along? Is he walking yet? xx

Hi! Wonderful to hear that he has adjusted well in his surroundings.Kids need to have people around them to get use to the surroundings, otherwise when they go out they can be real cranky and stick to the parents. Good to hear that soon he would have company at home a lil brother or a sister. I know how one feels not being near ones own family.Things do feel out of place.January onwards you would be a beezee mom...with him starting prep there would be so much to do. So many activities would be happening in the school and more than the kids its the parents who have to participate to get things moving on. Great going.My son is doing good. He started walking when he was 11 months old. SO baiscally now he runs around the whole house and climbs on to bed,sofas. whatever and wherever he can reach. He has grown tall so he can reach the table as well. Or else he goes on his toes to see what is lying on the table and then wants that. we have to be careful. He has his own tantrums. Hates me talking on the phone when he is playing. Kids god they are so amazing the way they learn and pick up things so fast. One has to be so careful doing or saying nehting infront of them. We never raise our voice infront of him. Our whole life revolves around him. But being the only child he has started getting very possessive about things. Does not like to share his toys with othersmall kids.So i guess its just the beginning.

Heyy! Thanks for your response. Yes some parts of Sctland are beutiful. The higlands of Scotland are mainly hills and fields. I was brought up there but it is very isolated and not many jobs in my husbands field of work hence then reason we moved to the city. What's the Philippines like to live in? I've never been. Hope to hear from you again soon.

The Philippines is an archipelagic country meaning it is composed of many islands (7,100+ islands). We have only two seasons, the wet season from June to February and the dry season from March to May. The people here (Filipinos) are very friendly and hospitable. Our number one export product is labor (Filipinos are scattered all over the world, mainly in the service sector). Politically, we are democratic and have economic ties mainly in the U.S. and China. Our ancestors are from the Malay, Indo and Chinese lines. Cultural influences include Spanish and American. With that, I hope I've given you a little perspective of my country. Look us up in the net if you have time. Until next time...

Thanks Sunshine4!. Wow 4 kids, I'm hoping to have 3 or 4 eventually. We're currently trying for bub nimber 2 =) How old are your kids?

Lol thanks for the response. About the tantrums - do they ever get less frequent?? lol - I'm just kidding, my son's got less frequent about 2 and a half. He's not had one is ages in fact. Just tells me i've made him sad or angry - Better than a tantrum by far lol.

Dylan is quite the cutie himself. Yes getting back to work will be great, we can use the moeny but even if we were ok without me working, i soo love the feeling of being something besides just Mommy, ya know.

Hiya, Thanks for your response. Your son is gorgeous! My son starts his first year of nursary in January. Same goes for me and gettin back to some soft of work lol. Hope to hear form you again soon.

Hi, Great to hear from you! Aww don't refer to yourself as an outcast lol. I only found this sit ethe other day so i'm hoping i'll meet some poeple like yourself to chat to and keep those earnings going up lol. Yes some parts of Scotland are beutiful. I think many people forget that and go off abroad for their holidays when we have a beautiful counrty here. Lol scottish temper does sounds familier lol! Where are you from? Hope to hear form you again soon! x

Hi there, Thanks for your quick response. I am from a family of 5 kids. It's great to be from a big family. I really miss my family but i still see them as soon as i can. I didn't move form a different country but i moved from the top of scotland to almost the bottom of Scotland so it makes it difficult for me to visit often what with other commitments and the fact i can't drive yet lol.

I know it is really difficult to meet knew people. I went along to a parent toddler group with my son but found it really hard to join in as everyon ewas already in their own little group of friends! Hopefully it will get better when my son starts nursary and he has some friends lol.
