    :rotfl: At OH's outrage... "He peed on me!" (for clarification, that's Rhys peed on OH :p). That'll be the end of the Size 3s then! :rotfl:

    Tia, thankyou :) Yeah, will get them, try one and can always return to store.

    Becles, glad you're all together again :D Do you normally say grace or is it something Charlotte has learnt whilst away? :)

    James usually says it. They have two different prayers they say in school and he'll pick one of them.

    Meant to say with all the nappy talk, don't buy the Pampers Simply Dry ones in the orange packets. They're really rubbish. I bought a small pack after getting a half price voucher from Tesco, and I was glad when we finished them.
    Here I go again on my own....

    It's not too bad SM, if it stay's at that price it's less than £1 an item for mainly 'next' clothing.

    Bundle's of clothes really confuse me on ebay, sometime's they go really expensive for only a couple of things which aren't great makes then other time's you get fantastic stuff dirt cheap. 90% of Isla's clothes have come via ebay though!

    Snap. Same for finn - that and very generous fairies (:o). In fact, the only clothing i've bought in a shop with our own money was a £1.50 pack of vests from primark!!

    Have to get used to the new timings still...doesn't feel like 7 o'clock already. Praying our newly adjusted routine today helps finn stay asleep tonight and not backfire to worse sleep or something (my worst fear when tweaking anything).

    Can i make some sort of chocolate frosting without icing sugar, i wonder? ...

    !!!!!!- we have four packs of these in the next size. I bought them on a Boots glitch ages ago.

    Had the most amazing day today. We did the garden this morning, then went to the beach this afternoon. We took a picnic and it was just heavenly- OH and I sat and munched our healthy picnic and read the papers while H happily rolled around on the picnic blanket. Then had a wander along the seafront, fed H on a lovely quiet bench looking out at the sea.

    OH has now gone out for the evening so I have full control of the remote. Gonna catch up on some Sky+. I can't believe tomorrow is my first KIT day. It seems mental that the time has gone so fast. Looking forward to it though.

    Might go and make a SW friendly cake....not sure if I can be arsed though.

    Buttercream, aless? I don't think that needs icing sugar :)

    Hmm, i've always used icing sugar for it! Think will b good as having cake is unhealthy enough, don't need to add frosting :p

    Gisi, sounds so lovely!! Wish i lived near the sea. Dh has asked if he can move to portsmouth :p

    I always pay for things in shops with my eyes closed, that way it doesn't count :D

    Amber is a spoiled little princess, she needs dresses and pretty clothes. DH tries to moan, but spoils it by saying 'thats nice' or demanding that she wears a dress to go out. he's worse that me, I'm slowly introducing trousers, but daddy says no. He then moans if shes showing her bum though.

    And I'm not on ebay...

    My mother used to use regular sugar for buttercream. But then she's as culinarily challenged as me...

    Speaking of which, OH is in a strop with me because I failed to remember to save him a chunk of my steak and kidney pudding from dinner. He seems not to care that it was minging... he wanted to taste it.
