    I'm going to be a bit controversial here, but I don't understand why people feel like they don't fit in - the only two things everyone has in common is that they have one or more kids and they like to talk to/get advice from/advise/share photos with/gently tease other parents on the internet. If those two things are met, then it's just a matter of posting sometimes and if the post gets lost then posting again in bold, sort of a HEY! Don't forget me! sort of deal.

    It makes me very sad when people say stuff like this because I like everyone and try to include everyone when I reply to stuff, and although part of it is my selfish wish to not be a bad ignory sort of person, part of it is that I like people and don't want them to feel sad.

    I will now return to my corner with my hiccups and shouty baby. She is now attempting to eat my sandwich.

    It's nothing personal towards anyone, just a rough patch in my life right now.

    Hi keely, is it anything you can post about, to either get advice or just get it off your chest?

    Yay! :T:T

    Thanks Hammy. Sold Out at JL. But do also love the red and cream star footmuff they have to match.

    More random crap from WM.
    Now MIL was at our again on sunday. She said i've bought Alex a lovely cream cardy, yadda yadda yadda, to keep at my house. Because i don't have anything for him at my house. She does not need anything, I send him with bootles, milk, nappies, wipes, food, clothes for the day and extra sleepsuit & vests if there is a poop explosion, plus calpol, teething stuff, various creams etc. And coat/jacket/cardigan/ hat/cap/ suncream as per weather. Why does she insist on buying stuff and keeping at hers when she has him once a week? And its a total waste of money? Also everything even though he is 7 months old has to be white/cream/baby blue and totally non denim.

    So I sent him today, in a very colourful stripey sleepsuit, to be changed into another colourful romper, with an in your face red jacket and denim (oops) sun cap. Now I know the jacket will have been replaced by the cardy, but it winds me up, he is my child and i choose what to dress him in.

    Also had a little disagreement with FIL about the sun. I'm a v. fair skinned red head. I do not sit in the sun. After many, many years of failed attempts at getting a tan with painful sunburn, sun stroke and blisters as results I have given up. He who sun worships and has a perma tan, thinks I am very strange. Also strange that I use nothing less than factor 30 and factor 50 on my same coloured hair and skin children. Because the sun cannot damage you. !!!!!! has he never heard of skin cancer? So that factor 50 that I sent today had better have been used on my two today or I will blow my stack. Sorry big IL's rant there.

    Keely feel free to butt in at anytime! You don't need to be an every day poster to come on and have a rant. :D

    How is gorgeous Elliot now? What's he getting up to?

    nursery went really well :)

    seemed to enjoy it. we are going back on wed morn.

    work went well. will be working tues, fri and alt sat/sun

    asked me to work every sunday but i said no.

    and although i'm on a p-time salary, if it was full time, i'd be on the same wage so, that good as sometimes when you move to a different store you have to take a cut.

    tooth is just poking through, but its definitely a tooth. he keeps rubbing his tonue over it lol :D
