    I can't pee in peace either, if it's not DD, it's either of the cats. Kinda unsettling trying to go with a pair of yellow eyes staring you out.......

    I'm always nekkid in front of Keira, she goes in the bath with me or OH, she doesn't say anything, though she likes to squeeze my nipples which HURTS, and likes to stick her finger right in your belly button, feels odd that.

    button - glad she's ok and has you to look after her! Have you talked to her about using depo or something so at least she can't forget and end up pregnant unplanned?

    yet again I'm thinking maybe having 2 boys is a blessing :) when they're older I'm just gonna make sure they've alway got condoms, although knowing me if one of them got a girl pregnant she'd get kicked out by her parents and I'd still end up with a baby in the house :p

    Funnily enough, I took her to the doctors to get the implant in her arm, only last week! I didn't think the pill would be a good idea, as she'd forget!

    I take her out once a month, maybe buy her a pair of jeans or whatever, and we go for lunch and just have a girly chat, no-one else seems to bother with her, so it's nice and I think thats why she comes to me. I also let her babysit for me now and then, just if OH and I go to the cinema or something, I mean she is a naive, but she is very good with Keira, and I trust her a lot more than my mum to watch her for a few hours. Also means she gets a bit of money as my mum is a BIG FAT SCROOGE, says she has no money, but can afford about 4bottles of vodka a week (she isn't an alchy, she just likes to get drunk!)

    Last time she was at my mums, I went to pick her up and I thought her and my other sister Ellie were upstairs watching stuart little - NO, watching CHUCKIE!!

    Morning-ish! :o

    Button, relly glad your sis is okay :)

    Rhys and I had a lie in this morning.. Only to look up and see the builder stood in the living room doorway! :eek: He said he's thought his plans through properly last night and logic had decended so he'd come back to do the shower this morning - hurrah! :D Also, he's going to phone building regs and see if they can come on Monday and he's fetching materials this afternoon so he can get on with building on Monday and Tuesday. Then he can order the window and while it's being made go finish his plastering job on Wednesday and then we MIGHT have a window in by next Friday - hurrah again! I'm not entirely sure if he came up with that plan himself, or if my Dad phoned and "suggested" it to him - the builder has a daughter nine months older than me and our mum's used to be friends when we were little, so they do know each other, and it is my Dad paying for all this! ;)

    Rhys has been grizzly but I finally separately him from me long enough to do the washing up and get some breakfast.. Am aiming for lunch before two as well; Rhys is having a nap now.

    I seem to have developed a really teeth-grittingly painful let-down, just last night and this morning.. Hoping it goes away soon! :o

    Have filled in my SureStart grant forms and my HV is calling in later to sign them. Am entitled to it if I get tax credits done on this year's salary and we get DLA but I need to get the forms in now before time runs out - apparently it's get the forms in now so it's registered and they can make the decision and backdate it later. Just waiting for the tax credits paperwork to come through now. DLA claim forms arrived this morning but it's the wrong one - it says "child" on the envelope but it's the "adult" version inside so have got to wait another few days to get that then sit down with my HV (and the assistance from Tia!) and fill it all in.. I've been warned it'll be depressing! :cool:

    Anyway, enough waffle.. Am trying to move a few things around so it looks like I've done some housework for when OH gets home ;) Oh, and some lunch..

    Im just popping on to let people know about a glitch on the boots website on pampers nappies, 2 big packs of pampers nappies for £7, I think these are normally about £8 -£9 in Tesco, not sure exactly though. I seen it on another site which says its only supposed to apply to the small packets but Boots have made a mistake, so get in quickly!!!

    http://www.boots.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10052&productId=951771&callingViewName=&langId=-1&catalogId=11051

    I'll be on later to catch up, im in the middle of de cluttering the house, something I didnt get a chance to do before Cliodhna was born. My nesting instinct has kicked in powerfully. Im on my third roll of bin liners :T

    slingmeet.co.uk says:
    Do any of the following describe you?
    • You want to carry your baby while you carry on other activities
    • You want to buy a carrier but you're not quite sure which one
    • You have a carrier but have not had much luck getting a comfortable fit
    • You've never used a baby carrier but wouldn't mind trying
    • You are an experienced "baby wearer" and you would like to share your experience
    Then come and meet us!

    I'd say it's mums/mums to be (or dads) who use, are interested in, or have trouble with slings meeting up :-) (And I usually come home wanting a new sling, it's bloody addictive!)
