just about got jaydens outfit ready, mine sort of (ive been in my house clothes for so long im forgetting out to dress for te outside world :rotfl:) .. have a bath and do my hair later and then i just have to get up and make bottles ..

i never know whether to hugs or kiss people on the cheek when i meet them or think they're gonna do 2 cheeks ..then i go all awkward so i usually just stand there and say hi ...

That is how I got my reputation for being a kisser!! The first time I met people off here it felt wierd not to kiss them like I would my RL friends...so second time I told everybody that I am a kisser if not hello then deffo goodbye!

Benjamin and I will wear whatever is clean and ironed in the morning

Must remember one kiss, one kiss, one kiss! :cool:

I do feel like a choocie monster - the problem is the 2 Caramel Eggs that came with it are callimg me now......................... must resist! At least I walked a good 3 miles today and I walked quite fast so I know I will burn it off!

Debating whether to go for a quick walk tomorrow before I go to the TC or should i just take J to baby clinic? :think:
If I wait around at home I'll be bored!

I'm gonna get him up early so I can give him a bottle in the car when I get there at 10.30am, lunch at 12.30pm then a bottle around 2pm then he can nap in the car on the way home.

i bought a mars and caramel one. have resisted so far....

i'll prob need to give Kian his bottle either on the way or as soon as i get there depending on what time he wakes up.

Today so far its been..
5.30am
9.00am
12.30pm

if its like that tomorrow thats ok...
has been
7am
11am
3pm
7pm over the past few days...

have gave him some baby rice...you should see the faces he's pulled!
might leave him another week....

Seeing others' to do lists makes me realise how disorganised I am!

I don't think my list demonstrates organisation - just the ability to create work for myself.

I'm afraid I seem to be in a spiteful mood today - my neighbour has an electric gate and because there is no fence between our drives anyone who needs to get to her house has to come through our gate to get to it. Sometimes she leaves her gate open a little but this morning she hasn't. So I've told DH to lock ours. We have a post box on our gate so we'll still get our post, but she won't be ablt to get hers unless she open s her gate. Is that really bad? It's been going on for a while and I'm quite fed up of it!

I'm wondering what the point of the electric gate is when there's no fence between your property and hers. I don't think it's unreasonable for you to lock your gate - your property shouldn't be being used as access for hers when she has chosen to block access.

I know what you mean about the salt stuff but wasn't that baby proven to have been killed by a massive intake of salt, not just a normal amount? Wasn't the mother using salt to poison the baby?
Having said that I don't let DSS put salt on his food and would never dream of giving Benjamin anything with added salt or crisps!!

I put salt in things I give Alice but that's because apart from condiments, cheese, pate, bacon, and olives nothing I buy has salt in it already.

:Toh thank you I'm 99% sure I owe nothing because I only earnt £8 :rotfl:

I only know because OH didn't realise he needed to file one when he was first self-employed (he was doing it part time while studying) and that is why he didn't get fined.

blooming Dr was a noob today! She turned up 20mins late for our app :mad:
then was really narky because my 7mth old baby was wriggling (how very dare he! ) she then said "do you have a bottle or something?" when I said no I'm BFing she rolled her eyes!!! so when Chris making sophie dance while OH held Eds legs and I held his body didn't work she huffed he'd have to have an x-ray. Then we had 2 lovely xray peeps who were nice n helpful and giggled when he weed every where :cool:
so we await results from GP

How rubbish - she should know what babies are like. OH's doctors when he was a baby obviously had a sense of humour as his notes say things like, "On examination I found a crying baby boy."

Ironically, she'd the actual appointed paediatric phlebotomist (aka "children's blood taker") - that's all she does, day in day out! :eek: Which is why it'd be awkward to get someone else, and I know we'll end up on the ward waiting hours for a doctor (done it before), but I'd rather that than her butcher three veins a time!

ETA: Sami, am waiting til I've calmed down. Will phone OH later (won't be back in his office til half three now) and then see about phoning our nurse. Sorry I came in all guns blazing just after you'd told us about Ed's scan.. Boohiss to your sarky doctor as well!

I would definitely complain about it considering she is supposedly specialised to do that particular thing - expecially as it sounds like she's been like that before. If it was a general person then it would be more understandable (although obviously you still don't want it to happen) but you would expect her to be able to get it right and to learn what works best with Rhys if he is a particular case.

I never know what to do either - I never had close friends when I was younger and my immediate family don't do it either so I always find it really embarrassing trying to work out what to do. That is actually the only thing I find difficult about my inlaws because they do hugging and kissing and I just never know what to expect or what I'm meant to be doing.

Glam You're naughty! You should come and visit us - we've still got an unopened tin of christmas quality street.

Elle Poor Rhys. It must be the day for crap doctors & nurses. :mad:

I've just made V's appointment for her next set of jabs - Hib & Men C I think. But we've declined the swine flu one. Hope they don't try and bully me with the hard sell when we go in, like they did when I was having issues with the MMR for Liv.

LOL - I am a kisser, when I meet a hugger they invariably get a kiss in the ear :rotfl:

Mental note to clean my ears in the morning.

I'm looking at the Nando's menu http://www.nandos.co.uk/fammenu/FEM/Menu.html and wondering what V can have, or should I bring her something?

I think we shared some spicy rice and chips last time. MFD (and any one else with bigger little ones), - what will Benjamin have? I think we're past the sweet potato mash stage now.

V is being very strange today - she keeps laughing at nothing/noone! And she's picking up the handset of her fisher price pull along phone and shouting 'hiya'. How does she know it's a phone, she's never seen a phone in that old fashioned phone shape.

J has 5 bottles and I know that it will be every 3hrs from when he wakes so I'll just wake him up early. I want to start getting up at 7.30am everyday but I keep putting it off! Today was 8.15am (only cos OH rang me to say the M58 was closed so he was stuck in traffic - like I care! :rotfl:) so first bottle at 8.30am.

3 - there's a reason the Quality Street is still left! BLUERGH! I even dislike Roses now they've got rid of the nice ones!

I shall be bringing mush of some kind - never fed J in public before!
Probably Sweet Potato and Carrot - must remember to take it out the freezer first thing or it will still be frozen when we get there!
