    Evening all..

    *HUGS* to all.. I was trying to keep track of who's poorly sick but it seems to be almost everyone! :(

    ETA: Em, sorry, nothing much to add on the tablet suggestions. Rhys has two types, one is supposed to dissolve anyway and another is supposed to be swallowed but we dissolve it in water and add it to his milk. Could you dissolve it and put it in a very small amount of milk (20ml?) and give that, then the rest in another bottle (extra washing up, I know) and then it doesn't matter (from a taking meds POV anyway) how much of the second bottle he has cos he got the important bit in the first bottle? That's what we used to do with Rhys when he still wasn't too hot on bottle feeding.

    Have been to Asda and Tesco, not that bad, only normal Saturday morning type levels. Got a few more bits and the food and cleaning bits we needed, plus stocked the medicine cupboard up in case someone gets ill here. Also "Superbaby" (in the style of Superman) PJs for Rhys - top with fold over cuffs and trousers with feet in them :D

    Mum's going to take Rhys with her to my grandparents on Christmas Eve so I can nip into town for a few things (stuff I doubt they'll sell out of so not panicking).

    Need to get wrapping tonight. Pressure is off a little bit as I was supposed to be seeing friends tomorrow night but one lives a far way away and has to drive country roads so we've postponed to next week when hopefully the weather will have go it's act together! ;)

    MFD my money is on an eternity ring, or was the box too big for a ring?

    Nah - far too big! It is about the size of a larger Filofax (so not quite A4 but not far off) and about an inch and a half thick :confused:
    I think jewelry as well MFD, either a ring, or a necklace !!

    I think (I hope) he knows me well enough not to pick jerellery for me :o I am very fussy and I am terrible at hiding my feelings, if I hate it he will see it in my face :o

    He does owe me an engagement ring :rotfl:


    I hope it is something lovely too! I will never forget the Christmas where he proudly presented me with a Desperate Housewives box set and a solemn promise to watch them with me...I have never really liked Desperate Housewives and I think the boxset is tucked away somewhere unopened :o all I could say is 'aw, how nice' :o

    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.

    Maz, Where abouts are you? I'll see what I can find out... Otherwise, health visitors and sure start centres are the best place to start...

    Sami, you forget, I have the genius drinking child ;) (I had something similar for Aimee but made by tomy... She got it straight away but her friend could never figure it out...)

    My hubby is a pleb... He's stomping around in a huff now... I can't be ar5ed with it tonight I feel crappy... Only going to post the dedication pictures on facebook then go to bed...
    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.

    If it is a picture I will be well pee'd off!! Even a picture of my beautiful son will not make an adequate gift :o

    If it is a picture with cash strapped to the back...:rotfl::rotfl:


    The more I think about it the more I think that it is exactly the size of a larger size filofax...but he made that mistake once before (I went out and bought myself the one I wanted :o). Maybe he has found the one he gave me and is recycling it :rotfl:
