    Morning, just skim read last nights chat... hope all well this morning. Oh has just gone to tescos and then pub for a quick pint with Henry ( OH not Henry obviously) before my mum and dad round for dinner.

    Ooo listed my first thing on Ebay to sell, a babasling:j:T only 7 more to go...

    Do you bother washing 2 year olds clothes before they wear them, I would with Williams stuff but not sure about Henrys?

    PS hope Tara and MM had good night dancing...have booked my mum for baby sitting next Sat night :j

    Our holiday at the moment is a week split btw my sisters and Ils in March

    It's really dreary outside (going to have to wipe the drizzle off the door once they're back up!). I really fancied going out for the day but don't know where to. Might just nip into town on my own.. :o

    Ahh to go out on my own... I can dream !!

    Glam (or anyone else who sees Sami regularly), do you still use baby rice? I have two unopened boxes here that we're not going to use. I can pass them on tomorrow if you like :) (lazy fairies, you see :o)

    I would have said yes but I only use it to thicken the pear purees and I thought I might just start adding them to mashed brocolli. Maybe someone else could use them/
    Thanks though!

    Just rearranged furniture in nursery on my own (muscles!!) and found 2 brand new dummies!!!! so I'll have 4 for night time now! :j
    Also found a load of crap I've bought & not even used! :mad:

    4 hours... try ¾ hour at the hairdressers!!!

    :rotfl:Haha, that made me laugh about dummies...we went away for a weekend and ILs babysat Henry, they started off with 8 dummies and when we came back they had 3 ... searched everywhere and couldnt find them ...eventually was cleaning behind cabinet in bedroom and found all five (I was really pleased)

    just got back from Morribob's - wow, I've never seen a supermarket so empty during the usual Sunday rush!! It's a new store, so I'm thinking it won't last forever, but it's soooooo nice not to have to fight your way through the store just for a bit of shopping.

    Won't be around much tomorrow & Tuesday as we're going to be at a hotel (:eek:) while our landlord has the bathroom damp-proofed (they have to rip out the toilet & shower apparently). Not sure if it has free Wifi, so I'm going to be sooooo bored all day!! Also wondering how it will work with a baby :eek:.

    afternoon all. off out in a bit with PIL to some national trust place on the way to souhtport (begins with an R)

    avent bottles- i have 2 i was sent to try for a survey and they never leak. same with TT CTN, never leak.

    how runny are baby foods from the jars. they just dribble from K's mouth. might stick some baby rice in to thicken them up.

    sorry beenie you didnt get any numbers :(

    Plumbing update: managed to get the bath/basin waste into the soil stack now and pipes fed around bathroom ready for new bath and basin to be fitted. Who needs plumbers? :D Craig stopped for the day now though as his knees have given up.

    Does anyone else feed their child nuts and seeds? Charlotte loves all sorts of nuts - pecans, peanuts, almonds, hazlenuts, macadamias etc, and various seed mixes. She's been eating whole nuts for a few months now. There is no history of nut allergy and she loves them. Someone else said you shouldn't feed any sort of nuts to children under 5 though?

    Just thought it was healthier feeding her nuts, seeds and dried fruits for snacks rather than crisps or biscuits.
    Here I go again on my own....

    Hi Becles,
    Not sure but isn't the under 5 thing with the nuts due to the choking hazard more than the allergy aspect. Sure that peanut butter is ok after 3, but I could be making that up as it doesn't apply to me yet so I would only have skim read it somewhere rather than actually taking proper note of it.
