    still waiting to see if I'm entitled to anything!
    don't forget I have a big mortgage - £984 per month :eek:
    had some money left over last month so once all bills paid for I've got £200 for food, fuel & 'stuff' to last me!
    at least I get this weeks board from BIL - and I've bought cotbed mattress & jumperoo as well!
    Shouldn't have much else to pay for this month and fingers crossed I do get some tax credits!!!!

    Woohoo, Keira just ate chicken, stuffing, bacon and red onion pie! All of it, she didn't eat the potatoes but that's fine, she has never been keen on the spud variety.

    But hurrah! After moaning for about 1 hour (seriously!) that is was disgusting and she wanted scrambled eggs instead, hunger clearly got the better of her, ok OH was shovvelling it into her mouth so she would stop peering into the pie mix and tellin him to remove anything with colour.

    But hurrah, something flippin' decent in her belly. Lets see if home made vegetable soup with tiger bread tomorrow goes down as well.....

    *screeches to a halt* That's way more exciting than my news! Congratulations Glam! Don't go to H Samuel they're beyond pap!

    Anyway, my turn: MFD MFD MFD MFD MFD MFD MFD!!!

    I saw a stokke today! Well I think it was a stokke, it looked like a stokke and I don't think there's anything that looks like a stokke but isn't a stokke is there? It was black and it had a medium sized toddler pointing out in it :-)

    I have to go and throw a ball for Celia now, it's like having a dog I swear!

    LOL! How very exciting for you!!! xx

    Bless Celia! Benjamin will also do anything for a ball.

    My (and MFDS) last Monday of ML is nearly over.

    Only Tuesday to go.

    Woe is me................!!

    But you get lots more Mondays ;):D

    MFD & Mooki, how have your Mondays been?

    xx

    We had a lovely Monday thank you SB :D I agree with Mooki that this one has been more precious than all the others.

    Hubby and I have just been wearing Benjamin out by being on hands and knees at opposite ends of our through lounge/dining room so he was crawling between us for about 20 minutes! Let's hope that makes him sleep tonight (unlike last night :rolleyes:)



    MrsM that dress is gorgeous!!

    Sami, it's kind of AWN-ye but not quite. Somewhere between AWN and ARN.

    Molly will not stop screaming, she hasn't slept for more than ten minutes all day and Husband's still on bedrest and it may be six weeks before he's better. I just caved - am booking flights for my mother to come over :eek:
