    Just catching up briefly inbetween ILs visiting and DH's best mate over for dinner (NOT my idea) :rolleyes:. Best mate is a nice enough guy, I'm just not in the mood for visitors twice in 1 day and feeling totally cooped up in house due to weather. Thing is, if best mate doesn't come tonight he won't get to visit for about a month as my dad is flying in on Sunday for 3 weeks and our flat cannot handle any more people - so rationally I know it's best he come tonight, but the irrational part of me just wants to tell him to booger off :p

    Absolutely dying for my sling wrap to come in the post, then times like this morning (where I got NOTHING done as Finn just wanted to be held for hours on end) will be in the past. He's an angel, yes, but my fingers itch when I can't housework done! :p

    /self-centred post

    Hope everyone else is well today! :j

    back again!!

    nipped to asda (well trekked really) got some bargain oops though so worth the trip :j.

    so glad tia,wasnt your OH, how worrying for you all the same. was the bus/car driver ok?

    bruno- i think sb idea of nursery once or twice a week is fab. when i cracked infront of DH the other week its what i said. 'just to be able to go and have a relaxing coffee, read a magazine or even try on an outfit rather than the usual- yeah that looks my size'. its having your own time away from the home to be you.

    beccles- i was wondering who Jack was then i realised its your new dog :rotfl::rotfl:

    Hi Becles, glad you had a nice christmas:D

    Feelie, thanks for mentioning me/kai in your mammoth post:) Not sure if you are really interested, but I think the turning point with kai's eating was more to do with letting him eat himself, rather than spoon feeding him. The fact that he is eating with us is secondary imo, but he does try to copy us by using his spoon, except it usually results in him hammering his food with it rather than 'using' it.

    OMG I don't know what to do with him....our doctors are rubbish they will just tell me to phone back in th emorning for an appt, maybe if I wait till out of hours then see if I can get him in with them? We are all starting to get snappy with each other now, and the older two have hidden themselves away in their room for most of the day as it is, it's not really fair on them and I can hear them getting ratty with each other now too!
    Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot,
    Nothing is going to get better. It's not.
