    Boo yes I'm coming Wednesday and I'd love to try a wrap of some kind if that's ok? :A

    I was thinking of bringing A in the Joey but not sure I want to sit and hold him while we eat. Might just do that though as my pram is too big!

    ooooooooooooo I'll hold him :D
    I'll have my Joey as well :)
    Hello all :D

    Am going soon to get Dylans new car seat .... and as strange a question as this sounds, should I take him with me ????

    Yeah I took J with me cos they adjusted all the straps so they fitted him perfectly then they fitted it in the car and I popped him in,

    Where does the time go? :think:

    Yay Hallway done....and shamed dh into (half) doing the kitchen, so will finish that later, probably while I am cooking dinner. I don't know how I thought I was going to get round all of upstairs too:cool: Loads of filing and chucking of paperwork to do later, at least that is a sitting down drinking tea job x

    MM - Idon't think you NEED to take Dylan, but you might want to so you can see how comfy he looks in the seats.

    Forgot to say earlier, we paid £50 for one of those zebras:eek: It was an impulse buy from Argos a couple of days before christmas. We were in there buying the boys their TV's and spotted them at the side.We had never seen them before, so bought one for Kai as his 'main' pressie....what a flaming waste of money AT THE TIME...he loves it now as he can walk over to it, climb on it and bounce it himself......but when we bought it he couldn't even stay on it so we had to try and hold him on it while bouncing it, it was a nightmare and it just got stuck in the corner of the room until about 2wks ago:D I really wish I had waited now though:(

    MM, we tried a few in Mothercare (they had a car seat that you could sit the seats on) and a few were not suitable because he fell to one side. We ended up getting one with side impact protection as they were deeper. Then ordered it online.

    Thanks Boo :)
    I'm looking for shantung and trying to decide between lilac, deep red, black and deep green for a 1950s style dress with elbow length sleeves and a giant skirt. I love the lilac colour but think it might be too much for a big dress IYSWIM? I'll look at your recommendations, but have found a super cheap ebay seller so we'll see ;)

    Aless the gym balls are great for core muscles.

    Right, next four tasks in no particular order:

    dry and dress
    eat something and make tea
    put the suitcase OH left for the cleaning fairies away
    put on Molly's laundry

    Ooh sounds lovely, I'm tempted by a 1950's style dress for my wedding if we ever set a date!

    I wanted that style dress Boo but was too pregnant for the tiny waist to work :(

    Have just bought deep lilac as a compromise ;)

    Ooooooooooooooooooooooooh a creepy creepy thing just happened. We used to have a Persian cat who died in October, anyway one night we were in the shower and he got angry at not being the centre of attention and hopped in with us, then panicked at the water and fled leaving a trail of little wet footprints up the hallway.

    I just got out of the bath and there was a little wet cat footprint on the floor in the hallway :eek:

    Creepy SS!

    I had a horrible nightmare last night about the kids room being haunted. Tried to wake myself up and couldn't. I was too scared to go check on them after it because in the dream I was possessed by the ghost and attacked Christopher!

    Now Amber needs a nap and I don't want to take her up...
