    Morning everyone...been trying to catch up with you all....

    MFD...hugs re going back to work ( or more the thought of leaving Benjamin ) im not hopefully going back till April and i really dont want to. On an ecomony driveat the moment to see if we can manage without my wage. It adds up on paper but doesnt always work out like that. Would also mean no more treats at all, etc holidays....but really think i'd rather fore go them.

    AF...I too got a hammock for Rose. I know MFD said Benjamin wasnt keen on his but Rose loves hers. She's now 14.5lbs and i would think still get another 6 months or so in it depending on how she grows. Not sure if it has helped but she has also been sleeping 6 till 6 since about 12 weeks too. If she wakes, it just rocks her back to sleep with her own body movement. We both love it.

    Krystal...glad you feeling a bit better.

    Susan...I just laughted at Alices clothes options for today...I can remember my eldest daughter used to be like that. And she was so strong willed that she always wanted to choose what to wear.

    I too havent sorted out the CTF. Rose is the only one of my three children how have qualified as the others are too old. Will look into it soon x

    Have a good day everyone. I have bread in the bread maker, I made soup carrot and corriander soup in the slow cooker yesterday so will have the bread with that and i now have rice pudding cooking in there for pud!!

    We've got the Ikea one - its lovely. Only snag is no dropside so no good if you suffer from a bad back!
    Oh my - I have just emailed HR with notification of my intention to return to work and now I am sat here in floods of tears. Why is it so hard?

    Hugs MFD - I really should sort myself/nursery/childminder out shouldn't I! Only 8 weeks left. :cry:

    Izzy used to love watching us hoover, but suddenly got scared of it. Babies are WEIRD.

    Oh, I forgot to say, we have a tooth! There wasn't one this morning, but when I got home she gummed my finger and I could feel a tooth :) We're having quite an unsettled evening so far, but hopefuly she will be ok once all the lights are off :)

    Same here with the hoover - we used to use it to get her off to sleep, but now she's terrified of it. Bottom lip comes out and proper tears!

    We've got the same 'retro' sweeper as Krystal - its brilliant!

    Yey for a tooth.......although that means you are now out of the gummy club and we take over the 'oldest gummy baby' title. :D

    MFD due to the anual fee plus crap economy, Chris's CTF is now not worth the 250 he started off with :rolleyes:
    Hmm Aston's is about £438
    Aimee got £500 because I'm on the poverty line... I think Caitlyn might get the extra too... Won't know till April...

    ....
    Ohmaybe thats why

    Yay for the 'retro' (I always thought they were old lady things... Retro sounds so much cooler!) sweepers!!
    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.
