Ps. Feelie i think your amazing too

Also Ladies that are gonna try the breast shells, Have your container/bottle/bag for milk with you ready to pour milk into otherwise you'll prob end up with a trail of drips on the floor from where you sat to where ever your container is

I'm about to go to bed but can anyone remember what the vouchers are that you get in the boots points machine thing, I think its something like 100 extra points on £30 spend, 200 on £50 or something??
I think I'll get a medela pump, or are they super cheap elsewhere?

When I bought the medela harmony (which is a fab hand pump if you don't mind hand pumping) Boots was the cheapest...

Not sure about the swing...or were you going for the little electic one?

Hubby speaks the Yoruban dialect from Nigeria but I think he is very shy about speaking it infront of me. I have a CD which teaches basic words and alphabet so if nescessary I will teach her some basic words myself. I so want her to be able to speak some Nigerian. I regret that my Dad didnt speak Arabic to us when I was little and so I have never properly been able to speak to any of my family on his side including my grandparents.

Did you see the TT Tia linked to earlier? It's OOS right now but you could keep trying..

Aww that's a shame, I hope you can get him to be more open about it. I was always amazed by my friend who's parents were from india, they spoke to him in urdu but he always replied in english and they all knew what each other was saying - craziness to lil ol' me who can speak tourist german and the crap few useless sentances I rememeber from French at school; J'aime jouer au tennis
I'm considering forking out the ridiculous amount that Muzzy costs
to teach Chris German so he can impress the locals on our yearly skiing trips :cool:

Hmm.. struggling for present ideas..

1. 40th birthday present for SIL who is a workaholic and when she isn't at work, she's with her horses.. so no experience days or anything that requires her time.
2. Sis and SIL 1st wedding anniversary.. Sis keeps on about a driftwood mirror, but it's like a piece of art and different people have different ideas of what's nice. Daren't get it wrong! Was considering a box of driftwood, a mirror and a tube of wood glue!

Off shopping tomorrow, mostly for things for Rhys, but will look out for idea then too
