    My "aunties" are all actual aunties or my two godmothers. I feel uncomfortable when OH's friends refer to me as auntie to their kid, particularly if I've not known the child from birth :o OH is called uncle by a lot of his friend's kids though. I only say Rhys' aunties are my sis and her 'wife' - I always stumble over the word auntie when talking about OH's sister! :p

    I hate this glorious weather, it reminds me how much I miss Brighton:( I suppose I really should put some washing on and get it out on the line today...seeing as I have a whole linen basket overflowing still.

    Nothing is going to get better. It's not.

    Ooohhhh... there might be a Asda Baby Event starting on 20th April! (just seen a banner ad at the side of this page, which is the .com site though; nothing on Asda' website yet).

    thx ss :o i want to experiment with something while dh is away to see if it will help with the sleep, but he can be rather clse-minded so in that way it's good he's away if that makes sense.

    Also...it is fairly obvious that ur better friends with him than her? If not, she'll prolly be slightly offended if u use the term all the time. Reminds of BIL's stupid girlfriend whom NO ONE likes but he wants finn to call her auntie. I haven't ever said no, but nor will i make an effort to refer to her that way. We're seriously hoping he dumps her before their semi-planned wedding in 2012.
    THat's a bit like us with my Nan who keeps referring to herself as Grandy, Grandy is my Gt gma, the one who's birthday was 5th june and why I got married on that date. It's a shame really because we only get her 1 birthday card and things like that so I can put them "to nanny" because I refuse to call her Grandy :o

    I'm not sure abut the Auntie thing, I only have 1 friend close enough for that but her sister is also called Sam so it would be confusing for her girls if I was Auntie Sam too so Chris doesn't call her Auntie either.

    I want a scrummy hot donut now elle! you just cant buy good donuts in normal shops.

    eurgh! Ed is in a narky mood, tooth #5 is ready to cut I'd say within the next 24hrs and #6 looks like a couple of days off too, I'm not used to this barrage, Chris gave me at least 2 weeks (more often a full month tho!) between each of his
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.

    Thanks ladies. We made a decision that our close friends would be aunties/uncles to Molly because we live so far from her actual uncles/aunts, and Peter is a much closer friend than his girlfriend - she and I are friends but not anywhere near as close.

    morning all,

    Thomas was very irratable yesterday , couldnt settle him for life of me all day yesterday , well he eventually took hes evening feed at 7 .15pm then went to sleep at 7.45 pm put him in hes cot while i had bath , then i watched tv in bed fell asleep about 9pm he then woke at 1.30am then again at 7am , so was realy pleased with him , he then started crying again and i thought oh no not another day like yesterday , then he had a almighty poo , it exploded out of hes nappy up hes belly and chest , up hes back , i had to cut hes vest off as it was easier to do that than take it over hes head, and now he seems fine , i think he must of been building it all up yesterady , so hopefully he should be feeling himself again ,

    Off out for picnic and walk round willen lake in a little while , should be nice
    Dont forget that little Thanks button , only takes a sec
