    happy birthday SS :D:D:D:D

    hi MM - thanks for the text the other day! I'm such a crap friend for next texting back, the days seem to blur into each other at the moment :o

    Becles - the tutu's are down to Boo as she made Isla one and is now selling them on eBay.

    Fitzio - so brave for leaving H to cry it out! I popped Jack back in his cot after his first bottle at 1.30am and he cried but I wasn't strong enough to leave him (I know he would have gone to sleep eventually).

    MFD - I hurt my shoulder this morning as well! Jack was trying to climb over the headboard so I put my hand on his tummy and he ploughed through regardless and I felt a big strain on my muscles. :(
    Hope yours gets better soon and so does DSS and DH.

    Jack has said Dada 5 times this morning - I am very :j but also very :(

    At least he can wear it out and drive OH up the wall :p

    we had nommy pizza last night - double steak, double chicken, ham and jalapenos!

    We are getting chinese again tonight for my late birthday tea! :D

    Just chilling while Jack has a nap on my lap, then need to go and do a mystery shop at my local supermarket, involves a visit to the cafe so might have to have a slice of nommy cheesecake!

    Thanks MFD and Glam. I don't NEED reassurance, but it's nice to get it all the same! I don't think that controlled crying is a good idea for younger babies personally, but I am at the stage where I know she definitely just wants our attention and she won't let me soothe her in the cot so the only thing I can do is to pick her up continually and hope that eventually I will be able to put her down without her noticing which could take all night, or to try this. She still loved me this morning and is her usual bubbly self!

    Well done Jack! Holly has been saying dada for a few months, but not with any real meaning. The only time she says mum is when she is crying really hard. :(
    I did teach her to wave this week though.:wave:

    Hope your sore shoulders get better soon. I know how painful they can be. Mine has been fine recently. It's just the bottom of my spine which is painful and stiff at the moment! That's from sleeping in the spare room on the rubbish mattress with Holly!!

    Aless I really hope you weren't planning on spending £5+ on that buggy net :eek: I'm pretty sure you can pick them up for a couple of quid, we got my Nana one for her zimmer when she had one :p
