Sami - I felt bad driving back from Ikea with a huge box poking out the boot which was right against J's seat and the boot was open with him rear facing in the back!
When I returned it he was barefoot an curling his toes round the box!

I thought you might have to move a seat to the front and put seats down.

ooooooooooooooooops not done bottles or anything! Better go and do it now.
So much for an early night! J is going to my friends for an hour or two tomorrow - be interesting to see how he gets on!

Kindof when you say; when they're cool, you'll put them in the fridge do you mean your gonna cool them in water a la glam?
I used to just lift the lid on the bottle so the air could expand, I wouldn't put it in the micro open mostly coz mine is ming and bits might have fallen in it

Thanks Sami...looks pretty good. Ikea stuff is usually very sturdy isn't it, so it should hold up to Kai's shaking it!! he won't even be in it for much longer than say 6-8mths and I will then move him into a bed.

We need to go and buy another set of drawers from Ikea as I love the ones I got for the boys room....and they cost about half what I paid for Kai's set, which are crap in comparison:(

Going to pick up a highchair tomorrow at 12pm from Chester It is a chicco polly as I just think they are fab highchairs, so comfy! she said it has been hardly used as they ended up just sitting their LO in a bumbo then just on the floor on a mat £30:D

Dh is getting on my nerves, every night he has been up on the computer from about 6/7pm till midnight...now I don't mind but as I am left downstairs, I am the one left to tidy up and fill the dishwasher, wash the bottles, and sort out anything that needs doing for the morning.....I am shattered:(

I was wondering what Ed would think of his view going from his brother to a big box blocking out the sun our boot is a bit of a pain actually because the opening is a lot smaller than the actual boot so long things that would fit in there you can't actually get in and the window is really slanted so nothing tall can go in or you'll smash the window :rolleyes:

Tell her I love her

SORRY!!! There were some but they were teeny-tiny sizes and I sent the woman away to look for more. Came back with plain ones with elephants on that were boggin (and not the triangle bum ones).

Then I had a drunk behind me at the till trying to be all amusing and I swear if I had been breathalised by the time I got to my car I would be over the limit just from breathing the same air as him. He followed me all the way to that car, I got in and locked the doors so quick, I almost hit the post when I forgot to change into reverse! Doh!

Fitz Poor holly And DH it's horrible when that happens

Caz (((((GREAT BIG HUGS))))) FOR MY LITTLE TIGER FRIEND x x

El was sick again this evening so is not even keeping water down now. She has slept all day and is now in bed.

Seriusly, too much of a coincidence for them all to get sick after being at TT. Hope she is better soon!

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:

Woohoo! Now he will forget how to do it for a week then when you're nto looking he will suddenly remember and you will get a shock

Amber can't crawl at all. Andrew would win in a race to the rice cake. (then Amber would just eat him or something)

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:)

I found the baby bjorn (or Tomy) better for about the house. Felt I had to always keep a hold of her in the sling!

Aless - I have a few RL mummy friends whose babies would not take bottles and they moved straight to milk from a sippy cup. The basic tommee tippee flip spout cup (about £1.30 in sainsburys) is the best - there is a reason why everybody seems to have this cup. I bought several others (which were crap) before I clicked


Kindof - we have the TT Colic Bottles and I stick the whole thing in the micro without even taking the top off. You can shake the TT colic bottles BTW.


SM - congrats (late I know!)


Hope all the poorly sicky babies get well soon.

Yay for Andrew :T


Hubby has finally realised how stressed/down I am (I have been telling him I am not coping for a while now) and has spoilt me tonight, bless him. Doesn't make life any better long term (or even short term) but at least I feel a little loved, bless him.

Caz - thinking of you and Charlie xxx

Sami_Bee

I still love you for trying tia x
I wonder if a naughty parent took a recently ill child to TT and thats why the illness wave I hope Charlie will bounce back quickly, I can't imagine what it's like having a LO in hospital.

I've been meaning to say, I LOVE the icandy cherry, now I've used it a bit I think I can declare that :cool: it is sooo easy to push, Chris can push it really easily, its so light its like it glides!
