Darn i am gutted. Someone on freecycle 2 mins down the road from me offered a leap pad learn n groove activity station and i was just pipped to the post by the first one to reply apparently emails were only mins apart. I never offer things to the first person i don't think it's fair and doesn't give anyone else a chance.
Has anyone got one? do you recomend me buying one? Are they really worth the price?

We got one for 99p :T off ebay a week or 2 ago and David loves it. I wouldn't honestly pay full price for one (£85? I think they are in Mothercare :eek:) but plenty of bargains to be had on ebay if you are patient :T

My Mum just rang... My nephew (step sisters little boy) went to hospital with what they thought was a broken arm, but the Dr ordered an mri and they said he has an aggressive tumour He was 7 in February... Got to wait a couple of days for an appointment so we know exactly what's what... I've been put on standby to look after her 5yo...

Big hugs Krystal for your Nephew

Sami, reggae reggae cook in sauce would go with meatballs

David has eczema on his face and head. It is obviously very itchy and is keeping him awake. He has been prescribed oilatum but it not working yet. I was thinking of ordering some of these .. www.scratchsleeves.co.uk What do you lot reckon? Any good?

On a positive note David has totally sussed rolling front to back and vice versa - he can't keep still whenever we lay him down now :rotfl:

Glam, what I meant to tell you was that it is horrible of you to poop when you have J in the bath with you. Wait till he gets out.

I think a 5lb/month weight loss target is totally reasonable. April, May and June will get me my stone and then I can concentrate on not gaining before BIL's July wedding and look like a proper yummy mummy and not an interloper among the trophy wives. Somehow I suspect a clever wife isn't among the attributes they'll be admiring by the pool; perhaps I should bring some heavy intellectual books with me.

what sauce (available from tesco) would go with meatballs besides tomato, or is that the only one?

Lloyd Grossmans Chilli & Tomato is nomnomnomnom with meatballs.

Did I see somewhere that gravy made with milk makes the same sauce as ikea?

hmm an interesting theory, dare I try it? :think: although I've never had the ikea sauce to compare, I thought I saw somewhere that lidl or aldi were selling the sauce csh do you know if it's your one?

ooh reggae reggae - always a winner!
oilatum for the bath or to put on his skin? we have a bath oil plus a cream for Chris's eczema

you can get lots of outfits/sleepsuits with turn over cuffs which might be a better idea to stop the scratching? asda for outfits, next for sleepsuits adams do some too

whoop for rolling!:T

hammyhunter

Thanks Sami, we have the bath oil and the cream.

We have next sleepsuits but I find the mittens part too small and his hands seem really cramped
