    I'm still here.. doing paperwork now, oh joy! Not even tried sleeping yet... trying to get the living room into a state where I won't groan at the mess when I walk in in the morning! :o

    Any reason you can't sleep, dora? Everything okay? :)

    Eek paperwork I'm forever filing ours away an then mire seems to appear.

    Dunno why I can't sleep :confused: I'm not overly worrying about things,do have things on my mind but I wouldn't think it's enough to keep me awake.

    Me and DH are sat here watching Gavin and Stacey :D

    Meant to say Elle that pic of Rhys standing up is great, I also love the one where he's reading his book :D

    I never get to the end of ours... For an administrator, my filing enthusiasm is shockingly poor! :o

    I would ask if you got your work situation sorted but I doubt you want to talk about that at this time of night.. tell me in the morning :)

    I bet it'll be ages again now until I can get another pic of him standing but he's not short of practise :rolleyes: He's currently asleep, sprawled over OH who's still up, playing comp games.. He's at work in five hours! :cool:

    I don't mind, I go back 25th January working Monday, Wednesday, Thursday & Friday. The plan is to go back for a few months then hopefully get pregnant with no 2 and then not go back an get a part-time evening/weekend job.

    Aim for tomorrow is to get a good picture of Daniel to go in the photo placemats for peoples prezzies.

    Sounds like a good plan! :D

    I need to partake in the photo challenge too.. going to run out of time if I don't get a shift on! That's also part of the reason for the tidy up.. couldn't get a decent photo without lots of junk in the background :o (Sami, my sofa is clear now :p)

    OH is finally making the move to bed so I'm off to join him.. Can see a much better percentage of the carpet now!

    Nighty night xx

    What else can I give Rhys for breakfast? He's obviously not overstruck on porridge.. :cool: Fruit puree and some toast to munch on? :confused:

    Scrambled eggs? Dried fruit? Oh, and have you tried mixing fruit with the porridge?

    And there are lots of different things you can put on toast - soft cheese, marmite, cashewnut/almond/whatever butter/mushed up fruit.

    I'm just contemplating what to do Izzy for breakfast. She had a cooked breakfast yesterday, but I'm trying to keep her breakfasts varied, so that she eats more when I give her "quick stuff" on work days.

    I also have something she can eat for breakfast on the weekends, and eat it after she has finished, as a sneeky way of getting more food in her - she always steals whatever I'm eating! She also likes to feed things to me, which is sometimes tricky, seeing as I'm vegetarian and she isn't!

  • Hubby's disapeared somewhere and being awfully quiet... Should probably go and investigate...

    I put some hair dye on earlier... Have a towel on my head now so I don't know how it's turned out... If all else fails I died my scalp a lovely shade :undecided:

    How did it turn out?

    Beenie - labour vibes from this direction too. Go find a hill to run up or something :)

    And to return to the cheesecake debate, it is yummy and if you don't like it I'm having your share :) (I also love marmite, olives and pineapple on pizza incase anyone is wondering. But not all together though. That WOULD be weird)

    Morning... getting worried now as spent last night having some 'period type' pains....plus dog wouldnt leave me alone while I was having a bath!!!! After Henry being 10 days late you dont think this one is going to be early do you. Trouble is because I never had any of this before with LO I dont really know what to look for... have put Mum on standby but could it just be Braxton Hicks... what are they like?

    These are not regular and as soon as I move position tend to stop... ideas?

    On plus side had a nice evening at pub... didnt even have a drink as they had run out of cointreau !!
    Mum to 2 lovely boys who keep me busy.
