    We can see it Mad! He's so cute!

    I think we just let Violet 'fall' into her own routine - which she did when she was past three months I think. :confused: It's already a vague memory! :o

    When her evening sleeps started to get longer, we started to put her upstairs after her 8ish feed - then i'd feed her when I went up to bed (whenever she wanted me to!) :rolleyes:, usually 11-12ish.

    I think he'll let you know what is routine is soon!

    Hi Bruno.

    Eta: Hi Sugar - how are you all?

    Where is everyone else? All having real lives i suspect - how very dare they! ;)

    Hi all,

    we're having lots of real life activities today...

    went to town to close my business account and spend DH's Borders vouchers (warning: you can only redeem these against double the value of the voucher now they're in receivership :() and had a coffee together and listened to a splendid brass band play the first noel :D. We've got round the double the value of the voucher spend bit though because DH bought a book that he can charge to his PhD account, so we'll get the full book price back :)

    then went to get a travel cot and fairy lights and happened to say this to my neighbour on our way out and she's giving us their old graco one :T:T:T:money:which is very good in a tight cash flow month. The fairy lights are with vouchers too, so everything is a NSD :)

    DH is just going to start erecting the tree and lights ;) but I have a special dispensation from Sami, so it's ok to be this early :rotfl:

    Email it to yourself. Like a txt, but instead of inputting a number, type your email address :)


    I've been having a RL too. My friend has just left - was very nice to catch up :D That's the one who lives in Southport so I'm waiting for her spare room to be sorted (just bought a new house and they're in the process of ripping out the bathroom and kitchen), then I can stay and come visit you all! :p

    Going to nip to the shop now for lunch bits, then do some tidying this afternoon. Nowt much fun! Rhys is with Daddy.. I'm feeling a bit redundant! :cool:
