    My light may be on, but that doesn't always mean I am looking at the PC - I am far more likely to be cuddling or feeding Tianna atm, so please don't think I am ignoring you if I don't reply quickly :)

    Our Precious Baby Tianna has now joined our Family, she is much loved and very welcome, xxx

  • Back from LO's party, she enjoyed it (as did the other kids who came) but I can't help feeling really annoyed with certain people.

    Got the hall for free so invited around 40 kids, out of them 40 I had 16 replies saying they were coming (parents RSVP'd) out of them 16 only 8 actually arrived!!!!!!!!!!! So including my 2 girls there was 10 kids there in total, as soon as we got home my eldest as gone to play out with 2 of the kids that didn't turn up but their mum told me only YESTERDAY they would be coming! Why do I bother?

    I had 5 people reply saying they couldn't make it, but the others I had no reply at all!

    oh hun, that is rotten. Its so hard for kids with birthdays in the hols. As long as your dd had a good time, thats what matters.

  • My eldest daughters birthday is beginning of October but she usually does her birthday party/treat in the half term holidays, I have had bother before with some not arriving but I think what I'm more annoyed at is the sheer time & effort I've put into it this time with it being fancy dress & we did everything ourselves (food, entertainment, party bags etc) so just kind of feel - was it worth it?

    So annoying for you though, Some people are so inconsiderate to others. Like I say though, I bet your lo loved it so thats the main thing xxxx
