    hi there hex ,,I dont like cinnamon thats why I will make them ..as I wont eat them,,got to watch the weight only 100% overweight

    Ann xx

    I should probably not be telling you this-but since I just ate enough to make myself feel abit queasy, Im going to. The cinnamon is an optional-you can really just roll them in the sugar-infact I remember now why I dont use cinnamon when I use white sugar_pale_
    So having said that Im going to sit on the couch and get over it-will do some more work tommorow-we are going to I**a tommorow to get DF his own computer desk so I can have the big round table back.:j I decided today that Im going to take at least one day off whilst DF is home on holiday.

    So good luck to everyone going back to school tommorow and well done with all todays lists.

    Sleep tight all

    Pigpen - That cake is fantastic, I made DD1's cake but I cheated and got a Hannah Montana cake topper off ebay but I did make a large cake which tasted yummy so was pleased with it, didn't look anything like yours mind! DD1 saw photo of your DD and kitten and has been mithering me all evening for another one. She's got 3 cats and a fish tank with 16 fish and at the moment about 40 babies so I think she has enough.

    Fish are food NOT friends... let her have a baby puss cat.. :p

    I think i need to make my focus this week the boys stuff as DS2 is almost in the 6-9 month clothes x

    :shocked: Wow! Sarah is just starting to go into 3-6 months clothes now and is 4.5 months. You must have a strapping young lad there Michelle! Well Done! :D:D :D

    Shes weird with her size though as shes been following the 50th centile (on formula charts when shes breastfed), and we were told shes gonna be tall? (Dunno who she gets that off - must be the milkman since OH is only an inch or so taller than me and im 5"4!? :rotfl: ) So if all thats the case.... i dont know why shes still in little clothes by age in comparison to her actual age....??!! :confused: It has caused a problem for us cos everyone bought presents when she was born to match the months they should fit.... like little summer dresses in the 3-6 months size as she was 3 months at the end of july.... but as shes so far behind now by time they fit her properly its gonna be too cold! So she wont get to wear any of the presents she got (and there were tons!) and were going to have to go out and buy her more autumny stuff by looks of it.:rolleyes:

    We cant even exchange them cos we dont have reciepts and were all bought 4.5 months ago of course! :rolleyes: Shame though as she got some gorgeous stuff! (OHs family are all Next/M&S/Mothercare etc... im ethel austins , 2nd hand off ebay and mini mode from boots when 1/2 price and only when paid for with advantage card points or pigsback vouchers :o )


    ANYWAY....... less baby talk! :rotfl:

    im sorta back in this week... but not till wed... as i have a TMA fpr uni due in 21 hours and im still trying to do it.. hence why im still up!! :rolleyes: I have however spent 45 mins tonight in the kitchen washing up! As ive been busy trying to do this assignment i havent done any housework so weve ran out all our plates (inc the plastic camping ones i keep in the cupboard for emergencies), used every piece of cutlery and every cup cos OH hasnt done any washing up!! So i ended up doing about 5 sink fulls of it tonight just so i could eat something and have a cuppa! :rolleyes: :o:o

    Rest of the place looks worse than a bombsite... but ohhhh well...... :rotfl:

    Back to my books i go... hmmmm...political ideoligies and the environmental impact of modern economic consumption... just what you wanna read about at 3am in the morning...... _pale__pale__pale_

    Morning all,

    Well, did start flying on the kitchen yesterday but then remembered I've got a two hour meeting straight after work today and I needed to do some prep for it. That took most of the day researching stuff.... Ended up having a ridiculously early night as I was really, really tired but, it's paid off, I'm feeling quite chipper this morning.

    Off to bathe and then do the work thing. Don't know how much flying I'll get done as I won't be home until gone 7pm tonight, but I'll do my best.

    Have a lovely day ladies.

    Morning ladies

    Soappie I wondered where you got to yesterday, hope you have a good day.

    DS3 has just got up and is foul for his first day back - nerves I think.

    Best finish his pack up and get in the shower.

    Good luck to those with kids moving up or starting school today
