    He has them in his eyes too they look so sore but don't seem to be bothering him. it's his fingers that is getting him down as he can't use them at all without crying. I have put a pair off socks on them. The doc wasn't concerned about me being pg i have a midwife apt this week so i will mention it to her incase.

    I think i will have to bring all my crafting stuff i want to do downstairs so i can be with ds.

    I seem to remember someone saying it was a good thing if the baby gets them whilst inside? or even if you are in contact with them when pregnant as the baby builds up immunity? I may be wrong though.

    Hope he feels better soon, poor little thing

    I don't envy you flourgirl ... I enjoyed potty training with DS as he was easy ... it just sort of stuck out and away he went ... with girls it just dribbles down there legs and goes everywhere lol plus she is scared to use her potty so will hold it in and several dribbles later she finally gives in ... I have a rudey girl running round the living room and yesterday we bought her a big girls fifi toilet training seat which she is really happy with :) the washing is all done so I am armed and ready to wash up all those little accidents :)

    I read the challenge as using whatever you like as long as it is all one colour ... i.e if you have pink paper with a deeper shade of pink on then that was fine! but this is the one I think where we send it to saveapenny and we have to guess who's is who!


    I looked after one little girl who was afraid of the potty but would happily sit on the toilet after that it only took 3 days and we never had anymore accidents, she was amazing.

    The 1 colour challenge is the July monthly one, I think the guessing one is an open "recipie" and we have until August for that.....I think.... will check on CP

    I am being nurse today. My little boy has chicken pox! he is really bad they are on his fingers which have now swollen to double their size and the spots keep bursting all the time which is really sore. i feel a bit helpless really as there isn't much i can do for him. He keep crying when i try to put cream on. He is lying on the sofa watching tv while i am sat next to him on the lap top.

    I hope he has a nap later and i can get some crafting done. i really want to get a move on with the rustys challenge on cp it ends soon doesn't it. I have my grans and mums bday cards to do and thats it for this month i think.

    Is there a keepsake board with butterflys on? brothers wedding has a butterfly theme so i would like to make them a card to do with butterflys.

    I haven't been keeping up with the thread this week sorry, what is this weeks challenge and when does it end?



    Aww poor little mite sorry he's not well. I hope he gets better soon. PM me your address and I will make him a card to cheer him up.

    Hi all am after a quick bit of advice lease, I am makin cards etc for the schools summer fair. I have a craft stall what i am wondering is would you put a seniment and insert inside all the cards or leave them blank? Bear in mind I won't be able to charge more than £1 for any of them . Opinions wanted please!!!


    Happy belated 40th skiergirl!!!!!
    In Perfect love and Perfect Trust.
