    I was named after a young girl from, little house on the prairie.....I think it was 'must see' tv when I was born!!!

    Luca was going to be (think Matrix) - Neo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm glad we saw the light on that one:)

    Jaden is named after Data from Star Trek......he goes to a planet, loses his memory and they call him Jaiden - we dropped the i, although I wish we had kept it really!

  • Ooo - niecey has just been taken down to delivery...she is 5cm dilated :D

    Now she has 12 hours in which to give birth before her mom has to leave for the airport - the race is on!!!


    Benjamin is unsettled today, I think it is his teeth. A couple of questions for anyone who uses teething powders:

    Does it ever stop feeling like you are giving your child some nasty drug? AND
    How on earth do you give half a dose? Do you use a spoon or something?

    Haha I do things like that all the time MM, bad or good my baby girl likes to show me up! Like when I moaned to OH that she hadnt stopped screaming all day except to take a breath, next thing I know he's at home to give me a break (lucky for us he only works less than 10 minutes away)and madam is all smiles!

    Well I told him about my laptop and my gorgeous lovely OH said I can have his new one! ;):D:A Lurve him!

    Sorry to butt in, but does anyone have any suggestions for toys for a 10 month old? I seriously need to get rid of some of Elliot's more babyish stuff now and get things that will stimulate and teach him things, and keep his attention for a little while. He's now very bored, and I'm not sure what to get?

    Thanks,

    Ooo Hope it all goes smoothly for her and her mum gets to meet little one before she has to fly off!
    Sorry never used teething powders before - I swear by anbesol!

    Start worrying when your baby shuts up and opens their mouth when they see the sachet! :o:p

    I used Ashtons - i would open it up, divide it in half with my fingernail in the wrap. DS would be there with his mouth open waiting for it by that time. I would then pour it into him and wrap the other half back up.
