    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!!
    The pink bit = the normal range :D So now Ello is classed as a small but normal child - yey for normality :T:rotfl:
    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
    IMO a present by deffinition comes wrapped! :p
    Santa puts his gifts in the sack We leave out for him, wrapped with typed labels (no incriminating hadwritting that way elle ;)) because the Elves have wrapped and labeled them. This year as Chris will now notice, I got mum to buy some wrapping paper that I've hidden so that will only be used for Santa gifts to avoid the Qu's 3 mentioned :cool:
    Presents from family are under the tree.

    Hi Susan! :wave:

    Maz - yey for William George - very regal, I like it! :D

    Looks like Beenie couldn't sleep for a reason!! Obviously another quick birth for her :T Well Done Beenie - I won't ask if she has a name yet :p xxx

    Hugs for poorly Ben and his worn out mummy!

    Em - just going by what you've said I personally wouldn't bother with the doc's anyway. Chris was off his food a bit for about 3 days then was sick once, then back eating ok again after about 2 or 3days maybe it's the same bug?

    SM - be careful going out on hilly streets!!

    EM - is the secret santa guy game for a laugh? could you get him one of those mugs that is a bloke and his clothes disappear when you put hot stuff in the mug - I think ann summers do them and maybe a card shop would too?

    Well I had to change a dirty Chris nappy today, 1st time for about 3months! bleugh! Not sure when he'd done it, either he did it at 6am ish when he woke a bit and had piddled on it or he has a touch of diawoowoo _pale_ I keep smelling it even though it's been cleaned up for 3hours!

    I forgot my BIG NEWS yesterday :o Edgar has eaten food :T he sucked all the little ball bits of a florrett of brocolli at MILs and then they were in his nappy this morning!

    are you enjoying my pooh stories? I have my very own one but I'll not share that one!
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.

    Boo for poo, yay for food! And its not broccoli, kids hate broccoli, but love little trees :D

    Amber shoved her hands in my cottage pie yesterday and then screamed when I tried to clean her hands. So, she likes cottage pie topping of mashed potato and parsnip with cheese. Does that count as food?
  • lovely poo stories sami !! Thanks for that, I just sat down with my lunch !!

    Dylan still doesnt like food, he has just about tried half a banana and a little bit of a youghart, but just spits everything else out and then refuses to open his mouth again !! I have tried finger foods too, but his grip still isnt fantastic to hold anything for long enough

    sami, you're a genius on the mug idea, love it!! i'm sure martin said ann summers were taking very late last orders for xmas delivery too... *runs to investigate*

    sounds like poopy fun in your house :rotfl: i'd love to hear yours!! it was friday i last went, i feel so bloated :( am considering getting a bottle of lactulose and just having a spoonful every day to see if it makes a difference, my auntie did that when she was PG with all 3 and kept pooping normally all through, didnt even poop in labour!

    whited cos MM is munching lunch!!

    However living with a husband with Chrons, it would take more than a bit of poo talk to put me off my food :p:)
