    oh sorry I thought I'd quoted Mel asking about the cot then didn't notice it not come up
    I got the sniglar £39 one, looks quite nice actually! Chris was straight in there with him lol poor Ed can never escape his big bro :p I took a pic of them but I'm watch panorama on the iphone so can't show you yet.

    Oooh when you get a chance I would LOVE to see it:) I need a cot for kai, but as he won't be in it for very long I want a cheap one...was thinking of either that one or getting one secondhand out the paper. How much is the mattress to go with it?

    Can I just say:

    Andrew rolled over from back to front half-a-dozen times today :j :j :j :j :j

    After a sleep though, he'd forgotten again what to do with the bottom arm :rotfl: So he's having to learn it again. I left him on the rug on my parents floor, he rolled himself over and started commando crawling out of the room before anybody noticed :rotfl:

    That bottom arm is a pain eh??? I totally didn't recognise you there! :cool:

    Well done Andrew!!!

    Glad Katie had a nice birthday. I saw Gruffalo Trunkies in John Lewis yesterday and thought of you!

    Off to make some HM baby food a la Annabel Karmel! I have made stuff for us today (including Carrot & Coriander soup for the first time), so it's Holly's turn now. I will puree it well!!!

    Might be back later. x

    Redmel I have a babasling. I love it as it's so quick to get on and off but only use it in the house as more than 1/2 hr and my shoulder hurts. It was a bit difficult when Erin was very small to get her comfy but now I just shove her in sitting on my hip while I get on with a few jobs and she loves it.

    Thanks.. I was mainly thinking of it for around the house so I can have my hands free to deal with K, he is still only a baby himself and will only just be 15mths when the newbie arrives. I was thinking about things like sorting his lunch out etc....that may become stressfull if newbie is also screaming for attention!!

    At the end of the day I have no idea of how newbie will be, and I may be pleasantly surprised and have another chilled baby like Kai:)

    Yay for commando crawling and rolling over.

    Katie chooses a toy to go to bed with every night, that way we don't have the issue of what happens when it gets lost or needs a wash. I have a feeling tonights choice will be Gruffalo.

    Fitzio - I have one of those in mind if we go abroad in the next couple of years.

    glam- i never thought of a teddy. K has 2 teddies that he randomly hugs/chews/ puts on his face when he is going asleep. i even wrote it on his 'things to know' bit of his nursery 'all about me' form.
    hope it works.

    right off to catch up on shameless past 4 epsiodes. chat tomorrow at some point :)



    hugs again for caz and charlie

    ... Elle - I hadn't realised you were in work again. Are you doing all 10 KIT days?

    Yup :) Did my first one last Wednesday, then today and then two a week for the next four weeks. Am actually quite enjoying myself when I'm there. Feels nice to be productive again :o
