Hi Everyone!

congratulations to all of you are sending kids to school over the next couple of weeks - especially if it is for the first time. I have seen some extremely gorgeous pics on facebook lately of my friends' kids all dressed up ready for day one of 'big school'.
For all of you who have been there, I would love to hear if anyone has any tips on how to entice my boys to get into toilet training. I'm pretty certain both of them are ready; we have established a routine where they go to the toilet before their bath every night. Sometimes even the overnight nappies are dry. They are a bit hit and miss at daycare with using the toilet but when I have tried to start to get them into using the toilet regularly, they refuse. Even the 'big boy undies' and promises of 'special treats' aren't working. Suggestions would be fabulous!
Our first general meeting of the year is coming up on 13 February at the QEII Centre in Curtin. All are most welcome - we'd love to see as many of our members there as possible. We'll be talking lots about Multiple Birth Awareness Week and of course the Annual Family Fun Day, to be held on 17 March. This year is set to be an absolute ripper. As always we would absolutely love to hear from anyone who'd be willing to volunteer an hour of their time on the day to help out with the various activities etc. Email me if you're interested.
I have been trying to get more into my social media of late - my iPad enables me to check in on facebook much more often than I could last year. I am constantly blown away by the gorgeous messages of love and support being shared on the CARMBA page. It really makes me feel so good to be a part of our wonderful group. As always I would love to hear from you if you have any ideas, comments or thoughts on CARMBA.

until next time,

Amelia
