LOL at folded babies! Ed folds himself over when awake, how does that not hurt!

Well We've eaten our bacon butties (Chris's request, who am I to deny him! :cool:) so I'm off to collect my icandy!!!!!!!!:j
I still haven't told OH I've bought it guess he'll find out later - whoops! :rotfl:

Hadn't considered an ear infection but I've saved the page to show him when he gets back from work. He's the type to deny anything is wrong and bury his head in the sand rather than look for help or answers. It's hard enough just finding out what his symptoms are :mad:

I have just worked out that Michael did his version of crawling (backwards froggy slide) at 7 months due to finding pictures taken in April 2002 in this house when we first moved in. He was pretty quick for being so small!

Crap, it's 2.30pm, DH will be home in 20mins and the house is a tip. Off to make like a domestic goddess!

Jenny, labyrinthitis is related to meningitis so better not to mess about.

Cutie Jack awwh!

Tried to make some cash on ebay over Easter weekend by selling 5 remaining items of summer maternity clothes. And failed miserably - all sold for 99p.

And one buyer had not paid. Auction finished Monday. 99p + £2.00 p+p. Ppffft!
Why do people not pay asap? T'is beyond me.

worth a try tho!!

got any old mobiles??? i looked on a recycling site through MSE and one of my phones sitting upstairs doing nothing is worth 100 quid to them!!!!

went looking at nursery's today, didnt like it

going to look at childminders, but no1 knows any local so its just a case of taking a risk.

this childcare thing isnt as easy as i thought!!!

I havent gone and sniffed it yet, the room STANK of stale alcohol though s

Awh Em! I hate that stale alcohol smell. Whenever OH goes out I take myself off the the spare room for the night to avoid the snoring, smell and maulling. And I hate it when I then go into our room in the morning and it stinks. And he's all
"what smell...???".
Dirty, disgusting minging men!

Got one Samsung U600. Mazuma says its worth £8.

So brassic, after paying insurance excess after my stupid car accient. Plus extra childcare costs this week, due to stupid school holidays! Should not have gone to Next Sale, should not have gone to Next Sale! Keeps repeating in my head.
Roll on next Saturday. Payday. Yay :T

Can't help with the childminder options on your side of Wigan. Can't even ask my CM if she knows any to recommend, because she only comes into contact with those at our side, at school and at local Surestart centre. I think I got very lucky with mine. She is a star.

What don't you like about the Nurserys?

There was only one nursery we could go to, the others dont have places available until the end of the year, but they just didnt seem very bothered. i know a nursery will be messy but it looked dirty to me. and not alot of things to do. it didnt strike me a cosy like nurseries ive been in in the past.

there was kids and babies sat looking pretty bored !!!

phoned another one and she gave me a ridiculous figure for daily amount and she said we dont prepare food so you'll have to bring your own!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ive heard of taking nappies and wipes but what happening to nice healthy meals cooked on site ?!?!?!?!

Nunu apparently has its own cook on site. But have no idea of costs.

Joe didn't take to the Nursery environment, cried the whole time. But then thrived at the childminders. My Best mate though thought her son did better at the Nursery when he was a baby. They are all different and unfortunately it's a case of trial and error. Not good for us "working mummys" who want to have trusted, loyal, capable and dependable,childcare in place.:cool:
