Jillie we bath Edgar less than once a week :shhh: but he loves it.
Have you tried making it hotter/colder? Ed likes a cool bath but Chris likes it hot - couldn't be the same could they!

thanks sami, dont think the temp has changed but i'm willing to try anything now as because he gets so upset, i find myself with excuses why i shouldnt give him a bath.

.. Rocky road is chilling in the fridge. This is a stupid question but how long could RR last for? Like best before not how long before DH and I eat it!!

Only thinking of making some for the weekend for Reece's christening. We're going to Essex on Friday and his christening is Sunday so wondering if it'll last (or in fairness if it'll survive that long!!)

Last? Perhaps. Survive? No!

I think I've made it on a Sunday and eaten the last of it on Friday before. Just kept it in a lock'n'lock box in the fridge

You know I'm going to have to go to the shop for more chocolate now, don't you? Obviously must go anyway for more Weetabix - porridge is so last season

susan- i thought it might have been the water on his /eyes but he did cry again today, although i wsnt as careful a i wanted. will try again.

With Alice it was just water in her ears but because we (or rather OH) didn't realise and just kept on trying to bath her as normal we ended up with her completely objecting to even getting in the bath even though that wasn't the original thing that bothered her.

Hola

Just received this txt off my friend and thought it was appropriate for here:

Motherhood's the toughest 24-hour life-time job. No Pay, no days off, no qualifications or training given and most often unappreciated & yet resignation is impossible! So Send this 2 anyone whose a TERRIFIC mum and let her know shes absolutely wonderful, I just did!...xX..xX

I also like this one she sent:

A Poem About And For Our Girlfriends:

Someone will always be prettier.
Someone will always be smarter.
Some of their houses will be bigger.
Some will drive a better car.
Their children will do better in school.
And their husband will fix more things around the house.
So let it go, and love you and your circumstances
Think about it! The prettiest woman in the world can have hell in her
heart.
The most highly favored woman on your job may be unable to have children.
The richest woman you know, she's got the car, the house, the clothes but
might be lonely.
So, love who you are. Look in the mirror in the morning and smile and say,
'I am too Blessed to be Stressed and too Anointed, to be Disappointed!'
'Winners make things happen~ Losers let things happen.'
Be 'Blessed' Ladies and pass this on to encourage another woman.
'To the world you might be one person, to me you are special! X

Hmmm, what about not bathing naked for a bit, maybe that's the problem! Just until he's happy being in the water!

I can't say I've ever checked out the size of the shop staff before buying food anywhere. Do people really do that?

I find I'm more cofortable buying from large people, feel they are less likely to judge me for buying my body weight in cakes
