however, i do remember that possibly, scruffy asked about a 2year old birthday present ideas!?im havin same problem for Katies birtjday at end of November!
I have some ideas, and a couple things bought already, i just dont know what to give her for bday and what to keep for christmas!!
Heres my list:
An easel (already bought paint, roll of paper, paintbrushes etc)
A bike
Childrens laptop
Wooden Blocks
Cash Register (already bought)
Trolley & Fake food items

after that, i have no clue!! She has the other things that she plays with in mother n toddlers. (due to beng spoilt rotten last year!!!)

Twas me! Thank you, Carla. The easel is a definate and the trolley that PP posted is going on the list too. She has a cash till and Dora laptop . Its so difficult choosing (as we have so much stuff already and more will arrive at Xmas and on Jamie's birthday! :eek::o).

i think its a bit late to phone aswell - i think anything past 7.30pm is a bit late unless its quite a close friend/family that u know doesnt mind!!

i think you just read my mind. i got the asda slow cooker too, made lamb shanks in them during the week (which turned out great!) and was wanting to do soup. i have a vegetable soup mix pack, altho ive read that you should put less water/stock in the slowcooker tan u would normally use......so how does this work for soup? What soup u got on caz!?? xxo

boots do baby stock cubes ....... cheers for all that info x

just checked the Kallo cubes have suspiciously similar ingredients as boots but are 1/2 the price in Tesco/sainsbury's :money:

i chucked in all the veg from the fridge that was needing used as i hate throwing food out lol! we have a black kale at my work so it has that in it too!!! i have to blend it all up though as abi wont eat it if she can see the veg lol! the water dosent evapourate so will depend if you want it thick or thin?? i usually just guess and make sure the veg is well covered with the stock. i want to make rice pudding but dont know where to start lol!!

hi all,

weezl - when you are next on, have you made anything like 'taggie' blankets that you can buy http://www.chicaandjo.com/2008/07/22/make-your-own-taggie-blankets/
i have just bought one off ebay (waiting for it to arrive), but did think of you and as you have unbelievable craft skills. maybe even one your carbooting or ebay??

loved the pic of the scrumptious fergus enjoying the wrong end :-)

elle - yay rhys for being a good bleeder :-) today for the nurse. he is such a trooper.

buttons - ouch for keira's fingernail coming off. i love her reactions though

bruno - what a journey for you. sorry about the speeding ticket...oops

mfd - socialising IRL hmph!!!! how very rude!!!! only kidding. sounds like you have been having a lovely time. how is the gorgeous benjamin???

sami - loved the pics of chris. he is so adorable, as is ed

keely - great pics too of your stunner elliot.

emlou - we are the same as you, antibiotics do amazing things to nappies don't they. i hate to think of how many i have gone through since thursday.

i know i have forgotten others as i had more to say but can't remember.

i am hoping now that LO seems to be on the mend that she will get back into 'eating' again. although i felt i was getting a bit stuck in a rut with what she was eating before she got sick. i must look at some websites for ideas.
