.. Postman just delivered a box from the fairies Had a brief look and the contents are sooooooooo cute! Off out to SCBU just now but will unpack and have a better look later. Andrew should have had his initial ROP (retinopathy) assessment this morning, so keep fingers crossed for us

*fingers crossed* for no ROP (Rhys had it mildly)

Hope you enjoy the rest of the unpacking later

yey for Dylan having a positive app!

I'm annoyed with my postlady because she's not bringing me the stuff I want
Boobie club yest was fab but very busy, a girl/woman (I never know what I should use??) who was in my antenatal class was there with her twins :T a boy and a girl, she made it to 35weeks so pretty good. Another new one was a girl that went to 'headstart' with me; her lil girl is a couple of weeks younger than Chris and her latest lil girl was born in august, she said she's had her letter inviting her to the next one (so therefore I probably should have had one too as Ed came first ) I want to go but would have to use the creshe for Chris, he'd love it but I'm a bit snobby about it I'm not sure it's good enough for my baby.
I'm not sure if her LO is average or not but her memory wasn't anything like Chris's, she asked me my name about 20times Chris can remember your name if he only met you once and hasn't seen you for 3 weeks :cool:

Sami, Chris must just be uber smart !! Jasmine still doesnt remember peoples names !!
She will remember you telling her she can go and play, or get a new toy etc... but not names

if I can catch a lip tremmor on camera I am to video it and bring it too.

MM the monster has pronounced lip tremors when she's angry - our paediatrician says it's normal, it just happens in some kids and it should vanish between 3 and 6 months.

Not advising, just sayin'

Oh - you were a filthy bunch after I went to bed last night! :eek:

My DD2 has decided that 4am is a good time to wake this week! After weeks of sleeping 7-7, i'm not sure whats happening!

A mum at school, who I also work with, upset me this morning - reminding me I have 9 (full) weeks left til I go back to work! I felt really sad on my walk back from school. :sad:

I've done my ironing this morning, prepared tea, just had lunch and now, after being inspired by you organised lot, am going to start my christmas list.
I'll use SS's expertise to give me ideas for my difficult people (everyone!).

Do we have any interior design experts on here who can help with my decor?
We're going to do the living room, we've got 9 weeks before the new suite arrives........and I dont know where to start!
Plain walls with loud curtains?, plain walls with one loud wall & plain curtains?
The suite is black, and my fireplace is white surround, with black fire - the room is incredibly small so we want to make it look bigger - any ideas are welcome!

Yay for carpet Elle!! Does the excitement never end!!!!

Not 'til Christmas which is my goal for getting everything sorted. That said, just having the carpets down (and now being able to get the furniture back in the right place, and the wardrobes filled back up) makes me feel so much better about it all and I'm feeling motivated to get it all done ASAP Ikea trip planned for next (not this) weekend if my parents are okay to look after Rhys for the day


MM, glad the physio appointment went well Sounds like they've given you lots to be going on with You've seen the pics of Rhys pushing himself up on Craig's chest.. (ETA: Doh, just realised that's my avatar! :doh:) That's another way of tummy time which Rhys seems to tolerate a lot better than lying on the floor (throughout which he cries but we still persist.. bad mummy ).

I've been making progress with my paperwork all morning. Been filling in lots of forms and enveloping stuff up - gave it all to OH to take to the postroom at work for me and I've just realised he's forgotten it all! :rolleyes:

I have no idea if its normal or not, I never thought anything of them, the pediatrician had put it in the notes to the physio to look out for them as he saw one at the appointment we had with him, but he didnt say anything to us, just asked if he got them often, which he does 2 or 3 times a day, and that was it. It was the physio who wants to see it for herself

I wish we all lived closer together (like an MSE community) so I could look after your little one's when you want to go out. I'd quite happily have Rhys and all the little ones for the day!! (But if I liked them I might not give them back!):o
