    ooopps !!

    I put a little bid on a beautiful pair of irregular choice shoes thinking they would sell for more than that and won them !!! Great for me, but how do I tell Chris I have just spent a bit too much on a pair of sandles that I really didnt need ????

    I suggest that if they are a size 4 you sell them onto me immediately ;)

    dh sometimes talks about 'quality of life' and we won't be able to buy this, that, or the other...

    I wonder when we started measuring quality of life in terms of what we can buy. I think so long as everyone has what they need (food, clothes, somewhere safe to sleep) it's time to concentrate on the feelgood stuff.

    Ed looks very happy Sami :)

    Happy Birthday Tia!

    Lot's of gentle hug's for poorly babies. And for mummies having to clear up after them. (That's the bit I'm dreading when Isla get's bugs, I hate the sight/smell of it and end up heaving myself. Morning sickness was a mare!)

    I'm off to get ready for Little Steps and a walk around the park. I didn't win the pram, it went from £62 with ten mins to go upto £167 finishing price. Ah well, I didn't need it anyway.

    Fitz it was a phil & teds sport with the doubles kit. I was thinking I could use it now when I have Isla and my nephew to look after and in future if we have no2 but I can count on one hand how often I've used my Joolz in the last month! I like my slings too much but have spent a bit too much on them recently so may have to sell a couple. I think because they don't take up room like a pram my OH doesn't mind when I get them and he know's they don't really depreciate too much so I can use them and get my money back.

    Have a good day all :)

    We prefer big pics, we get to see more of the cutie babies!

    I think Tia's is a milestone birthday too but I might be completely wrong there :o

    Right, really going now as Isla's trumping and giggling at me :rotfl:

    so, its a lovely day in NI and I am stuck in my house cos of stoopid ppl who thinks its a good idea to plant a car bomb and detonate it right beside my house at the army barracks.
    im not amused. If i leave the house, i will more than likely bot be allowed back in. I suppose I should be gratful that we are in the house than being evacuated though!?

    how is everyone on this lovely Monday morn!? gonna go n catch up on the last couple pages...
    Carla-Farla!! :)

    Mummy to Katie (27.11.07) and Christopher (05.08.09) ♥♥

    Morning all.. I've been reading on and off all morning so I might have said that earlier but forgotten :o
    :bdaycake: _party_ :DHappy birthday Tia! :D _party_ :bdaycake:

    *hugs* for the poorly and the tired :(

    Rhys was apparently awake before even OH this morning so half six-ish - time to sort a blind for his window, methinks! :p We got up then but have had a 40min nap since ;)

    You know it :Dalthough most of it was coincidence at Christmas and we had the elc truck way before you (so ner ner na ner ner :p;))
    as Rhys is a master sitter now I give it a week or 2 before he crawls for the physio then sits down and gives her the finger :cool:
    Ed now sits up when he wakes so I'm greeted my his cute lil face (crying) in stead of just a crying crib in the morning, which is nice :)

    You've just reminded me to get the crawl ball out again. He's sat giggling at it now.. it's a start! :cool: We're still finding Rhys turned round in his cot kicking the bars in the morning. I'm sure he's just shouting out to be let out of his sleeping bag to kick them harder! *rolleyes*

    We're off to see friends this afternoon (Rhys' ex cell mate who's three weeks older so I can scout out more first birthday ideas! ;)) and the micro pigs if the weather is nice enough to go to the park.

    Hope everyone has a nice day xx
