    MFD she was supposed to be referred to a paediatrician in Oct but I've heard nothing since, she is due her monthly weigh in on Weds (what you missed was that she was back on the pink bit of the chart last time I went) How is Benjamin doing?

    I have replied to this 3 times now and it won't let me post it :confused:


    LOL - it did that time - of course!

    Keep us posted on Wed MM - I am assuming Pink bit = good bit?

    Benjamin is a comedian in the making, he has realised that if he laughs we laugh too so he has developed a comedy laugh (think the old woman in Catherine Tate) to get our attention and make us giggle!!

    Hubby cleverly pointed out that DSS Ipod Nano could not come from Santa because we have had it engraved 'from Daddy, Steph and Benjamin xx'

    LOL Brightspark! :p VIA Santa, perhaps? ;)
  • can I ask, WHY ??? do you wrap santas presents? by not wrapping them, that is what differentiates them from all the other presents. We just have a big sack that all the presents go in to and the ones that dont fit sit out on the sofa or beside it

    All my presents were wrapped when I was little.. I'd be so disappointed if my present was just there for me to see as soon as I walked in - I like(d) the ripping the paper off (hate surprised now but that's a different story) :confused: I did start to twig about Santa cos he had the same handwriting as my mum on the gift tags.. ;)
  • I suppose thats why I dont do it, cuz santa stuff when I was little was never wrapped !!
    Jas has a few friends in school who do get wrapped presents and no one else does and the parents all asked us what they were supposed to say, so we all agreed that they left the paper out for santa to wrap them as thats they way they like it, and the rest of us dont.

    I am genuinely interested in why people wrap and others dont, its weird how we all do different things

    Tara, do you have any ice lollies you could give ben? It helps bringing the temperature down from the inside... Really hope he starts feeling better soon for you Hun...

    I wrap all presents :D although, if I run out of paper before I've done all of Caitlyn's I won't worry to much... It's not like she'll notice this year...
    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.

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    I wrap all presents too, unless it was a bike or something then i'd have it in front of the tree so it was the first thing he saw when he walked in the room :D

    As a kid i'd have been quite gutted if they weren't wrapped. For me it's the unwrapping that's the exciting part, then seeing their faces when they finally get to see what it is :D If it was all there in an unwrapped pile it would probs be too much to take in all at once.
