More than 1
I have a few friends who have more than one child, not many who have 3!
A friend recently told me she was expecting her third and wasn't sure how she was going to fit them all in the house and into one room especially when they are all so young.
So I've been hunting for ideas and this is what i found so far ......

14 months
COOL is one of her new words and very cool Yasmine is these days i think she is at one of my favourite ages i look at her and her personality just pops out she gives cuggles (cuddles) without being asked, will do her super crab crawl to the bathroom if she needs the potty, her sticker chart is starting to look pretty full and she knows all the farm animals and their noises because of it , so much fun we love to play ball and her vocabulary is growing like wild fire.
Unfortunately she has lost her voice and so she gets to wear my scarf that took me 5 years to finish (her own one is in the making and nearly finished!) and sits snuggled up on the couch, she has this extremely cute husky voice if she does manage to get a sound out,
with winter on our doorstep here's some tips I've picked up for looking after a under 2 if they are sick.
don't just rub the children's Vick's vapour rub on their chest and back but the bottom of the feet does wonders too.
lots of water, and keep their noses clean as possible to try and prevent sore ears, and for fever and pain relief you can give Children's Panadol or Nurofen
A fun range of baby products is Milk Baby an Australian company with interesting names like Snotty Grotty room spray,stinky winky, nighty night room spray , bath time wash and sleepy bubs massage oil
and a less advertised method alittle ginger wine or port if your into that kind of thing
We did try lemon and honey but that wasn't liked at all
a honey sandwich is ok the healing properties in honey are fantastic for almost everything!
anything your worried about go see a Doctor.

Salut mes chéries!
My Brother and Sister (in-law) are in Paris , I'm wishing we were there!
A wish is a magical little device that gives you hope. When you close your eyes and whisper your wish into the world it makes it feel as though your dream is absolutely possible.
I wish for travel. This wish is not only for myself but for everybody and especially for Yasmine. I believe in traveling to places unknown, favourite spots with wonderful memories, countries unimagined, and places that can soothe the soul and allow one to recharge. I have learned so many incredible things about our world and the people we share it with on our (before children) voyages. Travel brings cultures together and offers us an understanding of other people and places. It broadens our understanding of just what is possible on this Earth and teaches us compassion and tolerance. It brings people and families closer together, connects us to our roots, and makes wishes a reality. For now i will just have to make do with International radio and online French magazines.
Michelle & Yasmine
