    Nice to know they're alive though, searching! ;) We don't hear a peep from the old lady nextdoor - either we have a much thicker wall between us than we thought, or she never had a tv or radio on. You can hear the neighbours' doors closing quietly in my Grandma's house!

    just had a speed read so..
    Welcome newbie(s), congrats newmum!!

    Fitzio - I had just a set of drawers for Chris for a while - I think they were called a "tallboy"?? and now I also have a hanging rail like THIS I paid about £25 from somewhere but can't remember where :o

    Elle - I mean to tell u the other day my best childhood friend has almost the same name as u :D she is Lindsey Helen G

    I been spending some time out in the real world :eek: :rotfl: Sister is home for easter and its sooo sunny and warm here - I had a Mr Whippy from the ice cream man yesterday oooh it was lush!! Also got mini feasts and chocolate twisters from asda yesterday yummy yum yum

    NEW in 2009 is Twister Choc – with smooth vanilla chocolate and caramel flavour ice creams enveloped in the iconic Twister shape, kids tell us that there is no better ice cream combination

    oh and I've found some fab T-shirts in sainsburys £5 long line I bought my usual size and wearing it today I'm 99% sure it will last me to the end - much cheaper than a maternity top from mothercare!! Will try to get a combination top and bump pic you today, right off to play in the garden :D xx
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.

    What do people (particularly those who have been there before!) think about nursery furniture? We are using our smallest room for the baby, and we have decided to get a cot bed rather than a cot, but how much other furniture would you need? For baby clothes, would I get more use out of a wardrobe with a couple of larger drawers, or a chest of drawers? We were thinking that to save space, we might get a wardrobe and tall narrow drawers, but haven't seen any we like which aren't too expensive.

    So, wardrobe v drawers? What would you choose?

    How about this? :) No experience though.. I just found it whilst browsing after Sami mentioned tallboys. I had a tallboy at home, but it was a cupboard with two doors and a shelf in the middle with two full width drawers underneath - no hanging rail.

    Aww Happy Birthday Tia!! Hope you're feeling better soon x



    I'm waiting for my dinner, Steve's cooking it, I'm starving and it smells absolutely scrummy!

    My Dad's here too ~ he's just cut the grass out the back for me, de-weeded the flags at the front, washed Siân's big paddling pool out.....awwwww he's so good to us! :T

    Son's lay out flat on his back on the sofa watching the Everton match and Siân's mooching about and doesn't know what to do with herself.

    She's just took great pleasure in telling me that when the baby starts high school, I will be 45 ~ yeah thanks for that love! :cool:
