    Fairly ignorant about these things but has the photographer sold you the copyright to the photos so you can copy, move or reproduce them??

    She wasn't an official photographer, she was doing our original photographer (a friend) a favour.

    But yes we have full copyright, they are on a normal CD-R. I have managed to get 68 out of 77 so far, now my laptop keeps crashing when i try and get the last 9.

    Just a second ago i put on a video of a cow for Lily, and when it mooed she cooed at the exact same time :rotfl:
    Was soo funny :)

    The date wasn't set on the camera. Think Krystal got over excited putting the date on.....

    GISI, sorry I lost the quote but I think you're probably right - we can "theorise" all we like about why babies don't sleep, but at the end of the day it's sheer guesswork and most of the time it's just down to some babies sleep better than others.

    Krystal! :eek: You can't announce such big news while I'm away all morning! CONGRATS!! :j:j:j It's good to have someone now due after PP, though I can't remember when DribbleKritten's baby is due either...

    And in the excitement of Krystal's news, I can't remember anything else. Other than I have a million things to do and don't waaaaaaaannaa!

    Ooh lots of things to reply to. I totally didn't collect quotes :o

    Susan, doc didn't really say why other than eczema/hayfever/asthma all being linked..? Hopefully it won't come to that, he hasn't suffered with hayfever vey much and he's starting to grow out of the eczema.

    My mother used to do my head in asking to buy stuff on ebay for her, so in the end i just gave her my account and made a new one for myself lol. She's got more feedback than me now. I used her account to sell the iCandy pushchair cos i didn't want buyers seeing that i'd just paid less for it :D (i didn't make a profit, but even after fees etc i broke even). I'm still anxiously waiting for feedback cos she'll go mental if i get her a negative :eek: She has 527 at 100%. I also sold the Quinny raincover and the Quinny buyer keeps leaving message on my landline asking for it :eek: Whoops. :o

    I rang the council after my last rang about rebanding, and the swap list... I'm waiting on 2 diff departments ringing me back today (apparently), so i'll see what the outcome is of that. I'm gonna have to ring HO and tell her to come and do her stupidly ridiculously pointless experiment... nothing's happening atm and they've been at it all day as usual and something needs doing.

    Sugar :wave: :D If you can find the time that would be amazing :A Thank you xxx

    (i know more people said stuff, can't remember..)

    I'm looking at baby clothes bundles on eBay as her 3-6m stuff is getting too small and i have nothing in bigger sizes... But whyyyyyyyyyy do they all have loads of denim??? I don't like denim, i like pink :D, but every bundle is mostly jeans. I just want plain trousers and basic stuff, not dresses or denim! And i don't want to pay £10+ for "Early Days" stuff, we all know that's Primark don't try to disguise it!!

    While elle mentioned holidays, anyone got a recommendation for things to do in Edinburgh to entertain a 3yo, 1yo along with their mummy, daddy, and pops? we'll be staying in leath (sp?) will have car but possibly not fit us all in :p

    also
    Bruno/Weezl/anyone any tips for cheap car rental? we might rent a zafira/picasso to get us up there (via my sis's) hubby did a quick check and it came up with well over £300 for a week :eek: is that the going rate ??? *knows nowt about renting cars*
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.

    Raaaats. I was going to hang laundry out and now the heavens look like they are about to erupt. Also, I need to go drop off about 30 Avon brochures this afternoon and seriously hope it doesn't rain! :eek:

    I need to make snack cakes and DH wants bagels, but I seriously don't feel like doing anything in the kitchen. And deffo don't feel like hanging up the washing. *in lazy bum mode*

    Beenie, glad you got the Joolz you wanted in the end. I can't believe Amber has a tooth! :eek:
