    I think you may find that motion:
    1. The act or process of changing position or place.
    2. The ability or power to move:
    Is a better definition for what we have than locomotion:
    1. The act of moving from place to place.
    2. The ability to move from place to place.

    ;)

    Love you too

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    :pok ok so is it only locomotion when he crawls then?
    *in a hippy voice* can you feel the love in this room? :rotfl:

    Right, I'm packing baby's hospital bag (don't fall over!!!) :rotfl:(Not done my bag yet, as I'm waiting for a few bits to arrive)

    Thanks to MFD's very useful list, I need advice on the following

    I have on my list 5 vests and 5 babygros - so babygros are the ones with feet in right? :confused:

    And also, should I just take in Newborn stuff or would up to 3 months be OK as well? :confused:

    Also how many breast pads/maternity pads should I take in my bag?!!!!
    I took 2 newborn and 3 0-3 things but Chris needed tiny baby :rolleyes: Edgar the chunk was in newborn for a couple of weeks, he was too big for tiny baby stuff
    I took 1 pack of pads in and I think I needed some more for the 2nd day I was in. breast pads I don't think I needed until I was at home so just a handful incase
    I don't think you need to double up pads they'll be disappearing up ur crack IMO :rotfl: (though I'm glad someone said how they did it coz I always wondered :o)

    Ooh, we had chicken pie tonight too feelie! Hubby's favourite M&S one... Got some half price Ben and Jerrys in a little while too :D

    My sister came round today with my neice and nephew... Must of told him about 30 times to stop walking all over my brand new sofa... Especially with his bloody shoes on!:mad::mad:

    Went out to toddler group, and randomly, they were doing market research in the next room and a lady came in asking if we wanted any fruit... Came away with 2 honeydew melons and a bag full of oranges and apples... All for free!:money:
    Thought I'd managed to lose one of Caitlyn's bizziebaby booties earlier too, she was asleep in the pram and I thought I might try and see if I could stealth feed her while she was asleep, it worked a little bit too! But when I went to put her back in I noticed she only had 1 bootie on, looked all round and checked the bottom of the carrycot but couldn't find it anywhere.... Then when I went to put some shopping under the pram, I moved something and there it was underneath on the shopping tray! I'm glad because they're ever so nice, and I don't know how I could of tested them properly if I lost one on the first outing lol...

    Glam, don't worry about too many breast pads in hospital unless you plan to be in there longer than a couple of days.... I didn't leak anything until my milk came in on day 3/4... I finally bit the bullet today and bought washable ones... I've contemplated them for the last 3 boxes of breastpads I've bought but was convinced I would of stopped leaking by now... Used my boots points so at least they didn't really cost me anything...
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    I think my milk supply has settled to what grubber is taking and I'm expressing, my boobs don't swell up anymore. :D And I mastered pumping while feeding today and got double what I get just pumping after a feed. well chuffed.

    Finally made contact with DS2's educational psychologist who is now looking into funding for full days at nursery. I'm hoping for 3 full days for him.

    I thought pop goes the weasel was about spending all your money in the pub and having to pawn (pop) your top hat (weasel)

    Up and down the City Road
    In and out the Eagle
    Thats the way the money goes

    No chicken pie here tonight, OH doesn't want it, so I've got to make him sausage and mash, which means chicken and sweet potato for me, which is what I had yesterday :( He is a fussy thing. I want my chicken pie!
