    Morning all...

    Sorry i didnt come back to you yesterday about Rose's sleep....firstly i have been soooo busy ans secondly, i regreted saying it as from Sat she's only slept about an hour a day so i didnt ring the HV.

    Been having a few problems with her bowls since starting weaning, so started giving her porridge with prunes from yesterday so hopefully that will help.

    Sorry havent had time to catch up much but could see that Weezl and MFD needed hugs. Hope you feel better today x

    I agree everyone needs a life outside kids, and I do my best to make sure I have one, but at the end of the day, my kids are my responsibility and I am damn sure I will not allow someone else to bring them up for me !!!
    I agree.

    Although if the people going out every weekend are stay at home parents then they may be spending just as much time with their children as someone who doesn't go out on an evening but has a full time job.
    My whole house is that cupboard SM!
    That's just what I was thinking. (But about my house - not yours.)

    Quick question - i want to sort out jakes room sometime this week, but i have about 8 bin bags full of old clothes in his wardrobe that don't fit him anymore. Should i keep them for if when i have another baby incase its a boy, then i won't have to buy much! or should i ebay/freecycle them so i'll have a lot more room in his wardrobe??
    Depends which you would find more inconvenient - storing the clothes for however long or having to go out and get more.
    Any question, comment or opinion is not intended to be criticism of anyone else.

    Cadburys biscuits have a promo code for a photo mug from Snapfish for 99p! (one per household). I bought 2 packs for £2 at Tesco.

    I'm going to do this for IL's, Can you check for me SB, someone on the original post said that the code was on the outside of the packet so could be even more MSE and just copy it off packet and not buy them...although it is chocolate so enough said!!
    I'm never the first one up am I?!

    You might be the first poster but I've been up since 6 and am now catching up whilst having brekkie at work!!!

    I hadnt had chance to sort Henry's stuff out and then bump appeared so pretty lucky on that front as can reuse his stuff (inc some which came from my sister anyway)

    Luce, I would go through the clothes and just pick out your favourite bits then eBay the rest, that's what I'm doing with Aimee's clothes... I wouldn't put Caitlyn in everything of Aimee's... They're different girls with different colouring and personalities...

    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    Think i might just do that, theres quite a bit that was never worn so will keep them bits and get rid of the rest at least that'll give me a bit more space! Thankyou :)

  • Morning :)
    Right plan of action for today is to get Dylans bag packed and 3 bottles made up and then take him to HV and doctor then to my mums. Mum is picking Jasmine up after school, and I am going to IKEA !!!!! Have I mentioned that I am excited ??? :p

    I am really crampy thins morning, so I have taken a few painkillers before it gets too bad as I dont want to be too sore walking round. Chris has done nothing but complain that he is only for looking at the furniture, we dont nbeed anything else !! Spoil sport :( But he can sit in the car if he doesnt want to walk round, I wanna see it !!
    The two best things I have done with my life

    My IKEA is set out so you have to walk past everything to get round the store (I think it has arrows on the floor). Don't forget to pick up your free tape measures and lots of pencils (which you will still find lurking in your handbag in 6 months time!). Have a super fun day xx
