    My littley is 4 weeks old today, i am upset that the first month is almost over, she's gonna keep growing and i don't want her to :( waaaaahhhhh

    I know what you mean Beenie, William seems massive now and I've changed a couple of newborn outfits that he was bought to 0-3 as too small and the 0-3 I already had look small as well (from washing I guess)

    I forgot until just now, was visiting DD today on walked into town. We passed a craft shop so I went in to have a look and they had cards made up to buy looking remarkably like the nasty one I received a couple months back. It's literally round the corner from my ex's flat, hmmm!!!!!!!!!

    Do you feel better knowing it was very probably him? At the time i remember you were upset about not knowing who was doing it.
    Would love to come to the Trafford Centre but 2 things stopping me

    1 - work boooo
    2 - having a filling replaced at the dentist that morning so would have a very numb mouth!

    The next weekday I'm available is the 7th April but I have to be at the Lowry for 2pm as I'm taking Katie to see The Gruffalo stage show.

    We are going to see the Gruffalo too in June, we went to see Room on the Broom last year and it was fab. I said to OH I'll just get tickets for me and mil shall I and you can babysit? Oh no, he says, i want to come too.

    The special needs school school looks fab! :D Very, very impressed and DH is happy too. Lovely staff, nice mix of children, lots of interaction with the main stream schools, both the one it's attatched too and he can also go to visit our local one too. So we are going for it. It's a class of P1-4, so lots of different levels but there is 1 adult to 5 children, lots of support.

    Feely, Good. I know it's so wrong of me, but because special needs schools have a stigma, I was hesitant. I still walked in expecting to see a class full of... well, children who were notably different. But it's not like that at all. It's just a regular school classroom, less children and more teachers but it looks fun and friendly and happy. Yet again I have just been smashed out of my social stigma hidey hole.

    I think Christopher will get on great there and have a lot of fun. Plus it's a good mix of main steam and a bit of additional help and some specialised help. Really positive about it now. And so is DH which is a huge relief.

    The educational psychologist needs to apply, I'm not sure how it works tbh. There will be a meeting soon to make proper arrangements, where we all (SALT, OT, Physio, and us) sit down and talk about it, making sure we are all in agreement (but we get the final say) and then I think it goes to a panel. Which is where his low scores on the tests come in handy, on paper he needs to go there.
