Thanks for that link but it wasnt that it was a grant through launchpad??? you were able to the the forms through the opportunity centre but now they dont exist? it was a voucher for £150 to buy clothes for starting work. Will go to job centre tom and ask. i need some really comfy shoes, my feet were aching and swollen last night so ill be down that way anyway!

cant remember what else i was going to write lol!

You and Elle is hardly everyone - Elle was because she thought I was lecturing her instead of reading my post which stated it was for someone different entirely with different circumstances...
ETA - and I believe that once Elle realised i wasn't having a pop at her and how she looks after Rhys etc then we sorted that and I certainly have no grudge over it.

I think I know the one you mean (with a small blanket for a body?) Benjamin does have 2 of those but that is not the one! It's the one on the left here:


I did buy another on Saturday though and he doesn't know the difference Thank you for thinking of me.



Sami - did Edgar like the blue tesco elephant? If so I know someone who has one unused one going spare.


Is it wrong that I don't like her pink elephant? WHy couldn't she get attached to a 'beautiful' elephant or Jemima puddleduck instead:rotfl::rotfl: BTW Your wee boy is looking more gorgeous



At the risk of repeating myself I think it is really important to make time to be adults and to remember that without our gorgeous husbands we would not have made such gorgeous babies. We go out as often as we can and we take Benjamin to the local for a couple of early evening (5.30pm!) drinks too...we used to go there to chat about works stuff etc before we had Benjamin.
I also make sure that daddy and baby have lots of 'dad and lad' time without mummy interfering!! Minimum of 45 minutes a day when I do not interfere, whatever happens



I know I harp on about it but I have learnt the lessons of my husbands past....he split up with his ex-wife when DSS was 2 and one of the reasons for that was because their relationship was put on the backburner when DSS was born. I WILL NOT make the same mistakes...I love Benjamin to pieces but he is only here because of the love I have for hubby.

And here endeth my sermon - sorry ladies

thanks for the tips and sermons:p;) decided to delete my rant about DH.:o

Krystal: do tesco do a CTF account? at least if they do you can use any points for something decent...

No fighting please ladies I put Ed between the edge and me with my arm around him, the middle of the bed belongs to Chris

elle_gee

Will the CTF be in Rhys' name? So if someone gave me a cheque payable to him, I could put it in there?

Methinks I've got some reading up to do.. Surely :money:has done a guide on this somewhere... off to looksee!

ETA: Found it.. here for anyone as clueless as me

I have never had Jasmine in my bed and will never have Dylan in it either. I don't think you should have kids in bed with you, but I know very few people think that, so I dont want told off please
When Jas is sick, I go and sleep with her in her bed instead

Sami_Bee

Caz I recomend a nice pair of kickers or clarks shoes not cheap but will certainly see you through a shift on your feet xx

okay question time - I fancy getting Annabel a jumperoo. However as I bought her an expensive baby walker I don't want to spend quite that much (they are about £80) can anyone recommend something else instead? what have your LO's loved?

or are the jumperoos that good she needs one :P

general consensous on it elle is to just put the govt Q in it and have a separate account for any other money as the CTF is a bit !!!!!! :rolleyes:
