    I've been off ironing, building a packing pile (suitcase is in the cupboard in the bedroom and Caitlyn's sleeping in there so it will have to be a pile until the morning...) and polishing Aimee's school shoes because I just realised she doesn't have any smart ones to wear to the wedding tomorrow... Hubby's been really helpfull... By playing on the netbook... And then xbox... :cool:

    Really would have liked to paint my nails but I'll probably end up clippering them off tomorrow on the way out of the door...

    Oh, and I haven't finished the wedding card yet...

    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    :eek::eek: Let her out!



    ;)


    We're still not too good at CMs, Caitlyn is crying on her even when I'm sat right next to her. We went out to a farm park yesterday and CM took her off me - cue crying/screeching. She took her a walk round to the playground to watch the other children, and evetually C did calm down, but started again when CM put her in the buggy to have lunch. I don't like to say it but I really can't see a light at the end of this tunnel just yet :( I don't want the CM to just be able to calm her for 10 minutes, I want Caitlyn to be happy to be with her, which she isn't.

    Sorry not caught up but (((hugs))) and yays to those that need them :)

    Gorgeous photos ladies :)

    Scruffy I'd have eaten the Revels and put the empty packet back where he left it so it looked like I hadn't.

    Big hugs for poor upset Seth.

    :mad: for that buyer Caz but :j for Paypal getting it right.

    :eek: at that gym instructor. I get so worried because even when it turns out that someone's innocent their lives are still ruined. But then I had a friend who's in prison for child !!!!!! - and I wouldn't have thought it of him, but he admitted to it and to abusing a seven year old boy (but later retracted that bit and claimed it was just a fantasy he had). It's a horrible situation, and if I were a man in charge of disciplining young girls I'd make sure there was a constant nannycam in my office. It would mean I'd be embarrassed to pick my nose or scratch my bum at my desk but that's a small price to pay, no?

    So who is your money on then Caz? :cool:

    Happy 1/2 birthday to Kieren! Hope he had some nice pureed veg or something to celebrate (maybe a rusk??!)


    He had roast chicken dinner and yorkshire pudding. Think the dog had most of the carrot, and a wee sook of a Magnum classic lol

    Morning

    Strange weekend coming up. We're going out for a mystery shopping meal this evening and I'm at uni tomorrow for a tutorial, so my parents said they would take all of the children to their caravan. They are going this evening and coming back Monday morning.

    Got really mixed feelings. Be glad of the break and going to use the time to get some revision done, but I'm going to miss them like mad :o

    Managed to pick up another restaurant job for Sunday though. Two meals out in one weekend - that's unheard of for us :rotfl:
    Here I go again on my own....

    I used to have the top of my ear pierced when i was a child. And my nan once went through my hair with the nit comb and caught the stud and ripped it out :eek:
    This is why I find the whole pierced ears thing a bit _pale_
    Katie loves Jack especially when he was allowed to sit on her knee, that and seeing The Gruffalo are her 2 main conversation topics at the moment..
    Is she into babies? Alice is obsessed. Yesterday she was talking about Beenie's Amber and I thought she might have got her mixed up with a baby we saw when we were away last week so I asked her who Amber's Mummy is and she got it right.

    Becles, hope the revision goes well.

    Aw he has good taste in food! Jack loves Yorkshires - he nicked OH's off his plate last night and demolished it! :rotfl:oooooooooooooooo Magnum - lucky boy! :)

    Becles - you are lucky! I've hardly got any jobs booked! Hope you have a lovely weekend.

    Jenny - hope your OH is ok :)

    pinkpig - do you think maybe C realises that if shes with CM then you might not be around? Perhaps a new face might help.

    Aless - sorry Finn's not sleeping for you. Jack's not great either - woke at 1am brought him in our bed, then he was annoying me at 3am so I just put him in his cot and he slept there til 6am then brought him back in our bed where he slept til 7.30am.
    Need to make sure I have enough energy to stop bringing him in our bed - I'm so tired these days that I just CBA to keeo getting up so I go for the easy route! :o

    Well, I've finally got round to getting all the pics off my phone - lost the lead so had to bluetooth each one to my lappy!! Took ages! Can now send it off and get £41 for it!!

    J and I are off for a shower then meeting mummy friends. :)

    Morning all. Just found Izzy in the kitchen surrounded by noodles - she has emptied the packet all over the floor and is busy breaking it into little bits. Good thing there was only 1 portion left in the packet!

    Now when she has finished playing I'll need to get it all cleared up!
