    Can someone please send some 'stop whinging and go to sleep!' vibes to my baby?!

    I dumped mine in her bed. Probably she is still up there screaming, but there is nothing I can do for her. She needs to let go and fall asleep.

    Trying to grab some dinner here :cool:

    pinkpig, we could have done with some of those, but I passed Rhys on to OH ;) He wittered a bit more because he didn't want to lie down on the sofa - he does that a lot, wants to be held with us standing up, don't have to be moving, just standing up :confused: They've disappeared to the den now and I can't hear any more wittering..

    That's what Caitlyn likes too Elle...

    Although she's slept well today, 3 hours in bed this morning and an hour in the pram since we got back from my friends... I'm not surprised though after she woke last night... For some reason hubby has the ability to not only stop her crying in the night but to wake her up completely so it takes a good 90mins to get her back off again :rolleyes:
    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.

    Caitlyn's exactly the same - she hates it if you sit down with her, she prefers you to be stood up - it's tiring though!

    She's properly awake - no sleep here. Don't mind though as I have to take Josh to his swimming lesson in half an hour. DH is still at work so mum is coming with me to help him in the shower afterwards.

    Can't wait to come back and get my jim jams on ready for bed!

    Weezlie, a Photoshop question: is it possible to blur an area of a picture? I've one of Molly that I love, but I'm doing camera-face in a mirror on one side of the picture and would prefer not to be in it. I can give it to Husband but want to know if that's possible or if I should crop instead and he is currently doing sweary time in the kitchen.

    yep :) should be easy, although if he's having trouble due to having a normal mouse I'll be glad to help.

    Someone cleverly said photoshopping with a normal mouse is like trying to sketch with a block of cheese...

  • Yay Rhys. He is a clever boy, Elle.

    I got to have some lovely me time today, went into town all on my own while OH had Henry. I picked up my breadmaker and bought LO some lovely bits in Primark. I managed to get him some long sleeved vests which I've struggled to find anywhere so I am happy- sad what pleases you when you have a baby. I also treated myself to a sneaky, grown up coffee but it was skinny so won't break the diet.

    Sleepy baby vibes to all who would like them, me included!

    GISI I got some really nice long sleeved vests in Tesco - the sort that fasten kimono style so there's no wrangling the thing over her shouty head :)

    GISI - I have loads of long sleeve vests for Holly (most from M&S, Boots and Next I think). What I found difficult to get hold of was leggings with feet. You seem to get them if someone gives you a starter set (you know the type with bib, bodysuit, sleepsuit, cardigan thing, hat etc). I like them as if Holly is sleeping in her sleeping bag with just a long sleeved bodysuit, I can just put those on her in the morning when I get her up.

    Anyway if anyone is looking for these, I found that Sainsburys has them on their own without a top.
