Izzy has given up on her lunch and demanding milk instead. Kind of a shame as it is my favourite thing, but means I get to eat her share Will try something else in a bit, don't worry!

Alex has a throat infection. No wonder he's been a nightmare since saturday.
Penecillin just been syringed into his mouth.

Have actually got off my !!! and took photos for maternity stuff to put on ebay, and now can't get the stupid things uploaded, don't think USB lead is working. Will have to try in work tomorrow..

He's now just woke up from a big nap in his pram, first time ever for me. Going to alex weighed. Got to go get him a bottle. Try and read back later, if get chance between the ironing, cleaning and going to get him weighed. Fab day off. "rolls eyes"

I've used Tesco Essentials nappies or Huggies Super Dry most of the time with Charlotte and found those two to be best. Which ones I get depends on which work out cheapest!

I've just had a voucher through to get a small pack of Pampers Simply Dry ones for half price. We're trying them at the moment, but they don't fit well, didn't contain a big poo and wee, and she's got nappy rash which she doesn't normally suffer from. Not impressed and won't be buying them again.

I wish Charlotte would hurry up and use the toilet, but she doesn't seem to know when she's going to wee/poo yet. She'll be playing with knickers on, and I keep asking if she wants to sit on the potty/toilet and sometimes she does but doesn't do anything. Then all of a sudden she'll scream "I'm weeing" (or pooing) as she's busy doing it. She gets all upset when it happens and cries.

I really wanted her sorted before we go away in May to save carting shed loads of nappies away with us, as they're expensive to buy in Turkey.

She started reading already though and can recognise some words. She just started doing that by herself after she found an old pack of flash cards in James room from when he was little, and we've been looking at those.

:hello:Hello!

Henry and I have been busy hosting our tea group this morning:coffee:. All very lovely, although I'm a little bit embarrassed that we live in a weeny two bed where as everyone else lives in very glamourous four beds, but there we go! We like our little house! The best thing about hosting? The leftover biscuits and cake of course!

Need to go to the sorting office to pick up my photobook. I'm so excited, it's wedding pictures and only took us two years to get round to doing it!

Hmm, I wasn't going to bother with the M&S two dine in for £20 this weekend, but having just seen the menu I might!

We have 10cm of snow and it's forecast to snow more or less continuously for another week. It's a blizzard out there.

I've just contacted a charity to ask if they'll pick up an enormous box of stuff for donating - and they will but they'll charge me €15 to do it! So I'm passing it on to a charity that doesn't require far more than the cost of petrol to drive 5km to permit me to give them my stuff.

I'm thinking of starting to go to church but not sure :undecided
I have been baptised but my parents have never been particularly religious and neither have I. I believe there is something there but not sure what IYSWIM.
My American friends always use to say Grace when we ate with them and that and going to a lovely church on Sunday for the christening has made me think about going. It wouldn't be every week, maybe ever other. But I don't know what to do.......

You've got nothing to lose by trying Glam - I would be prepared to try different churches and denominations though as the services (and congregations) can be quite different!
