    Well I wouldnt say weird, but my Mum or OH's parents wouldnt even dream of taking money off me to look after my boys, if they did my mum would be a millionare!
    so, what it that like once a week then?

    I know what you mean, my mum would throw a fit if I tried to pay her. she doesnt let me pay for my weekly milk bill as it is !!!

    My brother won boxed set of 50 new Thomas books of Ebay yesterday... that should keep bedtime reading interesting for a while!!!
    Mum to 2 lovely boys who keep me busy.

    See I was thinking the ones with the sides would be safer, and a back rather than just a bit of plastic cushion. That argos one looks good though!

    Yes Sami, I am cheap :p but we don't have a car so it will be getting minimal use.

    Will that argos one go in any car? Or does it only fit certain models? I hated that with baby seats, why can't they fit them all! All cars should be identical :p
    yeah it will fit in any car is the belt just threads through it so doesnt have to be pulled out as much.

    awwww tis nice that you thought of my little man :D .. i was thinking she culld make her own stocking not to small of course any ideas where i could get the stuff from?? ..

    went down town and priced everything up that i need to get only problem i had is i couldnt find any boxes or baskets for the hampers .. oooo and 99p store and £1 store are selling silicone cake shapes butterfly, teddy bear and cupcake cases gonna get some for my chocolate slabs :D x
    speaking of the little man how are you set with clothes for him?
    for the stocking you can use any fabric, plain woven cotton would be good or fleece because it doesn't need hemming. I'd see if maybe there are cheap blanket or pillow case in a cheapy shop like home bargains.
    Would she maybe like to make one for her cousin to be and Jayden as presents

    Oh thought i'd said something bad for a moment :p

    I've had some 'dribble busters' to test-was asking where they came from. But have just had an email back from bizziebaby saying it's from them :o

    Anyone else had these to test? Quite handy for Elliot with his dribbling right now (bandana style bibs!)

    I've just started Ed in the 6-9's this week he's wearing stuff that Chris was wearing at 12mths :eek: Shame about what he's low on though I think I need to buy more sleepsuits too (I have no idea why Chris has so few :confused:) but I've got lots of clothes that are fine but I've just gone off :o
