    Aless - I like the wedge one better.

    I've got one of these on the zia, but it doesn't hold a lot, but I like the handy bottle holder bits.

    With shopping, I tend to hang a normal shopper on the handles. The Zia seems to be able to take quite a bit of weight before it tips.

    I was shocked at my friends Zapp - she couldn't even hang a little carrier bag on it as it tipped! :eek:


    Happy Birthday SS. xxx

    How is everyone this morning?

    OH has taken V out for a walk - I suspect he just wanted to use my Stokke! :rotfl:

    L is back from her sleepover looking like she's had about 2 hours sleep - i've sent her upstairs to try and have some sleep because she's a grumpy little sod when she's tired.

    I made my tutu last night - i'm amazed at how easy it is! I wish i'd got red and white now for a football one.

    L wants me to make her a matching one now.

    ooo, thanks 3. Since it doesn't attach at the bottom, does it not hang down and be liable for knee-bumpage?

    Well done on your weight loss, Em :T (have you just changed your sig or have I only just noticed? :o)

    I've taught Rhys a new trick.. every time we said "Gooooaaaallll!" he holds his arms above his head in celebration! ("sooo big", stylee ;)) :D :rotfl: He's got an football themed romper and hat for tonight - must find it and check it still fits! Have got to go to Asda later to collect a big clothes order for him.. I *might* have had a little spree :whistle:

    Nothing much going on here, just washing and tidying in preparation for packing for our hols tomorrow so we can get up and go on Monday morning :)

    Hope everyone's having a nice day xx

    Been meaning to ask - why is everyone making tutu's?

    Tummy settled and feels a bit better, but still got a headache.
    Here I go again on my own....

    Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot,
    Nothing is going to get better. It's not.

  • Fitzio - not sure if you needed the reassurance or not but you are definitely doing the right thing trying to nip the settling thing in the bud now. 20 mins is nothing in the grand scheme of things and it will get easier each evening.


    I have b00gered my shoulder/neck. We were all messing around in bed this morning and I had hold of Benjamin (who was throwing himself around) and I twisted to put him down and my shoulder kind of gave way. It is extremely painful.

    DSS is poorly, looks like it might be tonsilitus and hubby has an eye infection that has made his whole right eye swell up so we have cancelled our footy party tonight. The projection on the garage wall was crap in the light anyway :(


    Benjamin doesn't have any England stuff because I am a horrible mummy and he will be in bed anyway!!
