    *goes to make a sandwhich or something*

    I always have a biggish late breakfast, no lunch then dinner. If OH is on dayshift we don't have tea til 7.30pm and I survive so I wouldn't worry too much. If I eat breakfast and lunch I can't fit in dinner:rolleyes:

    I do have a fair amount of cups of tea/coffee and biscuits during the day tho :D

    Elena was bouncing herself up the changing mat for a few weeks: it's only really this last week that she is pushing herself right off it onto the floor and shuffling around (though might have done so earlier if we had let her: she was on a cot changer mat and has now been moved to changing on the floor). Only when lying on her back, though if you put her on her tummy and hold her feet she will inch herself forward a bit. She is very good at holding her head up and making the crawling movements when on her tummy, just waiting for her to get the hang of pushing herself up enough to crawl.

    Though - proud mummy moment - she was trying to raise her upper body from her beanbag earlier, and if you sit her up and hold her hands she will sit up :D

    Theres only 2 days between Elena and Kieren! He has started 'helping' to sit himself up when you pull his arms!
    When hes lying flat hes started lifting his head up, hes getting quite good now and can clear a good inch or so. You can see the concentration in his face and his wee face and neck muscles all working.
    He has the same look on his face as OH gets when trying to lift his head of the pillow with a hangover:rotfl:

    Oh dear. I've found an online shop selling relatively cheap Thai silk skirts, trousers, dresses and all sorts of stuff. This is my IDEAL SHOP.

    Still, I got halfway through January... and I'll tack on a week at the end of no-buying to make up for this one day.
