Hurray for The Wiggles!
[imported from livejournal and backdated]
Tao has discovered The Wiggles website. It was my fault, I decided to see if they were going to have any events in Perth anytime soon and he spotted me.
So
now he's on "his" (ie Josh's old) laptop playing the various games they
have littered about their site. So far he's played an instrument game
which is a simple mouse over game, great for teaching tots hand eye
coordination with a mouse. Next I put on the numbers game for him (he
mouses over a number, it gets big, he clicks on it and one of the
Wiggles reads out the number. Think he was trying to learn the numbers
so he could play Wake Up Jeff which requires knowing what the numbers 1,
2 and 3 are.
Now he's currently clicking around Captain Feathersword's screen.
I need to get a smaller mouse for him.

Elimination Communication
Slowly working on this with Ruan, seeing as it's kind of blatantly
obvious when she needs to do a poo. She was fussing earlier so I stuck
her om the potty and she did a wee (some of it hit me on the leg coz I
hadn't positioned her quite right but we're learning :P
No poo though, Ill probably wear it later :P
It
didn't occur to me to take a photo with her teddy (a Freo teddy she got
before she was born) closer to when she was born, she got bigger all of
a sudden. I'll take a photo soon, followed by many more at her
welcoming party later this afternoon, and post them later :P
Alternating Whinges
I think I did all right today, only yelled at the kids three times,
twice at Tiny and once at Smidge. One of the yelling at Tao was an
extended rant about I can't remember what and he didn't have a clue what
I was talking about either. By naptime I was quite ready for them to
have a nap but of course they were alternating crying so would wake the
other one up. One stage I had Ruan on top of me while Tao was having
some boob, she started squirming around a lot as she had a wet nappy and
she doesn't like having a dirty nappy on (unlike Tao whom as a newborn
we had to check frequently as he didn't care about the state of his
nappy and if we hadn't checked we might have left him to rash
infestation as it never bothered him). I tried disengaging Tao to go
and change her nappy before she started bawling and woke him up.
Problem was Tao refused to be disengaged and had a tantrum because I'd
detached him.
