Do you think he would be able to manage gears? (And does he need them?) My brother got gears when he was a couple of months older than your son and he really struggled with them for ages. (I happen to remember how old he was because I had an accident on a bike ride when I'd got miles ahead because he was having problems with his gears.) Do you know whether he wants them because he thinks they'll be good or because his friends all have them?

(I'm not expecting you to give me answers - I'm just hoping they might be helpful.)

My friends boy is 8 and struggles as he fiddles and the chain falls off!

I like your new avatar

No he deffo doesn't need gears!! But my ex got it into his head that he needs them and that gears are so cool and grown up and that he could go faster with them.

Can i take this opportunity to have a ridiculous rant about the CHAV in my street?! Her son is 7, about 8m older than C and is a proper bullheaded chav kid who is sly, i spy on them out of the window and he's all nicey with adults but he's sly with the other kids.
Anyway his mother (ugh - she's a moron, everytime i see her she asks why i haven't weaned Amber yet - FOOOK off it's none of your business. And how she weaned her kid at like 5 weeks old or something stoopid. Maybe that's why he's a big fat knacker like his mother then :mad:)
Anyway she was saying the other day how her brat has had his 20" wheel bike for 4 years!!

I was like - wut so he had a 20" bike when he was THREE i don't think so (she only says this !!!!!! to act like she's better than us). She was all like oh you're only getting C an 18" ?!?! Erm. Yeah. Cos i'd rather he didn't break his neck everytime he fell off his bike just cos we wanted to be the best chavs in the street??? :mad:
There's many many many many other reasons why i hate her but i just wanted to rant about it
This is a woman with ONE kid, he's 7 so has been at school a good few years. And her and her freak BF don't work - never have, and get paid to take someone's dog for a walk and they don't pick up the crap :mad::mad::mad: (The Brat asked me why i was picking up my dogs poo, and said his parents don't do that). IDIOTS!!!!!!

Phew, thanks feel better now :rotfl:

:j:j We're at a barbeque on that day for my cousins 30th birthday. We've already arranged for it to be lovely and sunny. :D


Beenie And breathe.
I've got gears on my bike and I never touch them.

Susan Gorgeous new avvy.

Weezl Lovely to see you.

MDW Clever Katie. (Who needs number 8 anyway!)

We registered V with the dentist whenever we all went for a checkup after she was born. We love our dentist. He likes the babies to come in from young, and he'll let them have a sit in the chair and rub the gums/count the teeth, so that by the time they actually need a checkup it's not new and scarey.

He also said to use normal toothpaste for the children as we don't have flouride in our water. (I think it's different in different areas). He said to look out for a mildmint one for the littleys.


I went for my driving course today. It was actually quite interesting! The morning was in the classroom, then in the afternoon we were paired up and went out driving with a driving instructor.

V was with MIL as usual for a Wednesday, so OH had the day to himself once he'd got the big two off to school.
He managed to put two curtain rails up - and that's about it! The breakfast dishes are still sitting by the sink. :mad:

ETA: Ooops - happy birthday to Doras gorgeous Daniel. xxx

tarajayne

I'd put the dishes on his side of the bed!!!

Now to tell people about our 'engagement party'!

Hi Keely - nice to see you back on FB hope everything is going ok

Hi Weezl I think its v rude of your ILs, if I was visiting someone with 2 babies I would be bringing my own meals and helping out all I could x Nice to see you pop back on tho and lovely pic

LO has taken to undressing herself and taking off her nappy. She was sat with the wipes before shouting 'I wiped it' whilst cleaning her fairy bits:p

Gone is my lovely little gentle girl and has been replaced with a hitting, kicking, little monster who has on occasion be known to spit:( I know its just a phase but its not a very nice one
