    thanks for the recipe - I googled it and got a Trojan Horse threat :eek:
    but dont tell OH :silenced: he'll ban me from the lappy!

    yep watching CIN - Taylor Swift sounds weird and the hollyoaks peep were crap!

    gonna feed Jack in a min - might skip the bath though. He's been sleeping for the last hour so a bath might wake him up abit which I dont want!!!!

    I am sitting watching CIN and preparing for tears! I imagine that with hormones etc. It will be more emotional than usual. DH is away to a surprise 30th party. I was going to pop along for a couple of hours and ask my mum to look after Holly, but I fell out with her on Monday and have said she can’t see us anymore. I feel so sad about the whole thing, but I can’t see any other way to deal with her as talking is no good. It’s really upsetting actually. Sorry, just feeling a bit sorry for myself. I am so envious of those who have a good relationship with their mums. :sad:

    Think I just heard a watery poo from H. There's a lot of grunting too. Better go and investigate!

    Fitzio - sorry to hear you've fallen out with your mum. Do you now think you'll make it up soon?

    What EDD does that give you then Mel? *hugs* for you too in case you want them :)

    We have poorly bubba here :( He sounds like he's lost his voice.. I want my shouty baby back! :o Dosed up on Calpol cos he was crying in pain and hurting his throat even more, poor mite. Don't think he's sussed the cause/pain thing yet! :cool:

    I'm watching CIN. I like the song with the kids tv shows! :D:o

    Am Christmas shopping too. Browsing the Grabbit forum to see what I've missed. Didn't miss the Chicco pushchair though.. I have one waiting for me at my mum's house :D

    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    I've never tried it myself :o And our microwave is now in the loft as we have nowhere for it in the kitchen - been replaced by the steriliser and big box of medication :cool: - so I'm not likely to try it any time soon.. Was just the first thing that came to mind :)
