I can't tell the difference between 3 and Som! Your pictures are at similar angles. Anyone else having that confusion or is it just me?!

Csh - Jillie talks about some sort of rocker chair, but not sure if Kian is as active. What about the Leapfrog Learn & Groove Station as a 1/2 birthday present for tomorrow?! Expensive but meant to be really good!
My baby is still lazy but we practiced loads of tummy time yesterday and having another day in today just playing as she is showing signs/interest in moving around so want to encourage it.

well weirdly enough, Finn is loving his bouncy chair much more now that he's older and stronger. He used to flop over quite a lot, even with the head support thingee, but now he happily sits in it for much longer than he ever did! He also loves his Tiny Love rainforst play mat thingee so I highly recommend it if you can stand 10 min bursts of Mozart .

I meant to say we have the Fisher Price Miracles & Milestones mobile and projector but I actually have taken it off his cot as it was right around the time of a lot of night wakings so I was thinking maybe the mobile was waking him up??? So once that settles down, we'll try it again as it's quite cute and music lasts for a good while.

I hate that limbo of you know they're about to wake up from a nap so you don't want to start any tasks but then you also don't really have anything to do...and then sod's law is they won't wake up for another 30 minutes so you could've done the washing up or whatever anyways

Well remembered! Not sure I'd get enough use out the L&G to buy it now???

Everything just clicked at once for Kieren a few days after the teeth came. Obviously they were taking all his concentration!
Hes totally changed overnight into a wee scamp!!!
But I bet on Saturday he'll be good as gold and sleep in his pram the full time lol

K always loved his bouncy chair but he arches his back to get motion then speeds up! He totally knows hes doing it cos he laughs his head off and tbf it does look fun! But I nip through to put the kettle on and come back and hes got the thing going so fast its like that clip on YBF where the wee kid does that and tips up flat on its face

The babies are about a year apart though!

I really struggle when anybody changes avvy, takes me ages to get used to it (and then they change again LOL).


Hope all those going to the meet have fun and Elle enjoys her first KIT day.


When Benjamin got to the point where he could bounce his rocker across the room :eek: I put it away then!!!

csh, you could find a learn and groove cheap on ebay - I think I said mine was a fiver?

Failing that, what about a little paddling pool?

Amber hates her rocker now, actually she hates anything that is not the floor. She can now roll from one end of the living room to the other so she thinks she should be doing this her ever waking moment

Right, what to do with the kids today... it's to be showers on and off. Walk to the park (Chris may not walk because it seems far, long straight road) or take the car to a local picnic/play area/walk place with a basic picnic (again)?

Oh and my quidco money is in the bank, look! £50 short of a quarter to my target! (I can't scrape it from the bank accounts though, it would only have to go back in a few days)

Better get dressed and do the dishes before anything else.

Fitz, im not to sure now. I have fed and winded her and she burped a little. But i cant find her infacol. She was crying again, but has stopped now i put her in her chair. Not to sure how long for!
She trumps all the time, so i dont know if its wind for that end! Its very loud to haha.

I have just ate a packet of crisps and now having some chocolate shots for my breakfast. We have no milk or bread. Or anything actually and im £54 in my overdraft. So trying to avoid spending until Friday

I've already checked ebay and netmums for a L&G and a Jumparoo. Just looking for pick up only and none in this area. Don't want to buy second hand sight unseen as my opinion on 'as new' and 'good condition' and others differ greatly!

Was looking at this

Which might do for a wee relax in and could use in the summer (ROFL) as a paddling pool
