    I think Caitlyn has finally figured out that the edge of the bed means a drop... She's finally stopped just dropping right off the side... She now lays down and reaches for my bedside table instead...

    I'll be an aunty again this year... Maybe twice if my sister has her way... My SIL is about 10weeks pg and my sister had a mc in November but she's going to try again... (Not the right time imo but it's her life... If she wants 3 kids by 3 fathers when she's still living on her own then that's her choice...)
    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.

    KEIRA! SETH GOT BLOOD!
    Poor wee guy x
    :rotfl::rotfl:
    I shouted at OH "SETHS GOT BLOOD" and straight away thought of Buttons and Keira :rotfl:
    Poor Seth Em, did he calm down quickly though? Aimee has a scar on her lip where she fell right on her face and bit through it when she was about 2... The very same afternoon she was messing around with her cowboy boots on lay on her back, flicked her foot up and the boot flew straight up and then managed to come down toe first right under her eye... She looked like she'd done a couple of rounds with Frank Bruno by the time she went to bed!!!!
    :eek:
    He did calm down almost straight away poor little man, he screamed out really loud and I thought he was being a ninny cos all he was doing was crawling along the floor, so I left him for a minute to see if he would calm down, he didnt and when I picked him up he opened his mouth and he had got blood, gross! OH has decided he has Wolverine super healing powers cos it stopped in seconds :confused:

    Mouths are amazing things at healing up quick though aren't they! Or maybe he does have wolverine powers... That would be so cooooooooooool!!!!!!

    MFD - Yay for No! IYSWIM :rotfl:

    Mincegate - what have I started?!! Tonight (lazy night) 500g of mince did 4 portions of lasagne cos I was lazy and used a Dolmio sauce. The ones I bought were actually 1100g - 3 x £9. I would add 3 onions, 2 grated carrots, probably 2 or 3 tubs of passata and maybe one of chopped tomatoes.herbs, oxo cubes, worcester sauce etc - this will be the bolgnase base. For chilli - add necessary spices, peppers and kidney beans. I'll make a batch of bol tomorrow out of the 1100g and report back how many portions I get out of it. :p

    I did try adding porridge oats and lentils once but it made it far too stodgy for my liking. I also find passata makes the sauce much thicker than just tinned tomatoes.

    Jack went down on his own for the 3rd night in a row so I'm thinking it might not be a fluke! :j Trick seems to be bath, massage, then bottle in our room with just the nightlight from his monitor on - towards the end of his bottle I pop the lullabies on, put him down awake and he drifts off after about 5minutes. I really hope he carries this on.

    Put him in his door bouncer earlier - so funny! And set his highchair up so I can feed him properly. He seems to love having a bottle totally upright which is good but difficult on the sofa!

    Em - Eek to blood! Hope Seth is OK

    3 - I too always confuse Tia & Tara!

    Bruno - sending SIL easy labour vibes

    MM, I'm used to it. Even after all the promises (from teh EP) that he will no longer be forgotten about, she's on the case etc when its her time she !!!!s up and forgets about him.

    I swear he will not be going to school if they haven't got him the help he needs already in place. I'd better go make a thread about what help I should be going for cos I haven't got a clue...

    Hows you today?
  • Big hugs to Seth and his blood.
