    MFD - Its gone to smilie heaven along with the confused smilie!

    Right the boy is fed so nipping to ASDA for the stuff I forgot yesterday and get the rest of his prescription. Might see if I can get the Vitamins voucher in Boots and get some extra points - I don't eat particularly heathily so they might give me a bit of get up & go!

    NMS, Beenie and MM - lovely photos of the babies

    Karen - hope you have a nice break.

    Workinmummy - I bought this to keep at mum's. It doesn't have a tray, but we just push the chair up to the table. However, it doesn't fold like the one Sami linked to, so Sami's one may be easier to transport if you're taking it to MIL's, your mum's and the CM.

    Had a semi-productive day so far...dusted our bedroom (can't remember the last time it was done :o), stripped the spare bed and washed the sheets, done additional loads of washing, put washing away that I did two days ago :o, ordered some ink cartridges for SIL, cleaned the dishwasher out, cleaned the sink, cleaned the hob and marinated the chicken for dinner tonight.

    Did anyone order anything from Vertbaudet using the £12 off a £12 spend with free delivery from the Grabbit board? (I think it was SS who posted it). I ordered a sunhat and swimsuit for Caitlin for our hols, which came to £12. I received an order confirmation via email but when I log into my account there is no sign of the order, so I'm guessing they've cancelled it. Unsurprising really, but was wondering if anyone else has had the same thing happen?

    sorry hes not sleeping thru for u - what does he wake for? is it a bottle or just a cuddle?

    No, he's not. (Big Sigh!):(. He wants feeding, but only about 2 or 3oz.
    He went to sleep at 9.30 yesterday. Woke at 2am and then 5.15am. At 2am he woke, fed, straight back to sleep. 5am was Wide Awake Club. Took ages to get him back to sleep. He flings his arms about too much and wacks himself. He will not be swaddled, have tried this since birth and can escape anything, swaddle blankets, normal blankets etc.

    And as it was the only morning of the week, i could get to have another half hour in bed, because mum was kindly coming to pick Alex up , before i went to work. He decided to wake early at 7am, when all week i've had to wake him at 7.30 to get his nappy changed and in his snowsuit to go out. (Double Big Sigh!)

    :eek: :shocked: Is that true? :shocked: :eek: (just making use of the ones we have got left! :rotfl:)

    My baby has pooed and she smells gross _pale_. I picked her up to give her her bottle, she sat on my lap and pooed. ETA: She has got a nappy on, she hasn't actually pooed on me.

    How pathetic! By that I am referring to the meanies but also to their removal!

    WM - aw sorry he's waking for you. Jack did start sleeping through but then something or other was making him wake up - teething or jabs usually! *rolls eyes*

    Choppy - we had one of those earlier. He was in the highchair with his legs up in the air cos I hadn't put the tray on. I got a full frontal whiff and it was disgusting!

    Do you think they could replace them with a 'snorted my coffee down my nose' smiley?

    I did, have no idea what my customer number is and can't check. I must have ordered the same things as you :)
