And also, I need an AMAZING gift for Christopher lovely key worker at nursery. Gave bath stuff last year, but I want something a bit special to try and show just haw grateful we are for everything she has done for Christopher (I'm welling up) and she has done a LOT.

to be honest tia, the thing that would thrill me to bits would be the immense job satisfaction of knowing that little boy and his mum were mega impressed with the input I'd given IYSWIM? So something which says to her really clearly how much he's thrived from her input, does that make any sense?

My friends little boy is autistic and his teacher helped him to cope with his hands in paint. We made her a card of his hands and feet dipped in paint and printed, and we wrote 'because of you I did this!'. Anyway, she was VERY thrilled.

I dunno, but I know I always valued cards from clients saying specifically what I'd done more than the expensive choccies!

But you know her so she may be a pricey choccies girl

Ah Sami - that reminds me - has anyone looked into the costs involved in buying a roof-rack or top-box? Would that be cheaper than hiring a car?

We managed to find one like this a while back on Ebay for £150 and should have been that for both bits... we can get quite a bit in it as well

Fergie's lovely. The HV is rather worried about his development though and has talked about referral to SALT due to lack of words/comprehension.

So that's sad

Aw jasmine was born the same month as fergie and she has not many words, mama, dada, yeh and who-dat (i think in my attempt to get her to say jake, by pointing at him and asking whos that, she now thinks hes called who-dat lol!!), i was always under the impression they didnt worry about speech until 2 years, ive not seen a HV for months! Also my sis didnt walk until nearly 2 years old! It does sound as though he's understanding you though with him clapping ect on demand.

I think theres something wrong with me, the NSPCC advert was on and it didnt touch me, then the RSPCA Home For Life advert came on and I welled up at the thought of the poor kitty being abandoned by the owner dying

I'm always like this - before and after having a baby! Animals get me, I can't watch any of those ads/shows. :o:o

3 - are you still here? I forgot to ask; how did you attach the reins harness to the antilop? When I brought Ed his breakkie this morning I found him stod up in his! :eek:

Just been across to the Drs for clinic to find a sign saying from 7th June baby clinic is mondays and thursdays and the health centre down the road :mad: How very dare they move from a 1min walk to a 15min walk to the other side of town, what's the point in that!! now I have to make an effort to get my baby weighed instead of nipping across the road I'm lazy

Can't stop or read back properly yet, will try and catch up later, but from my quick skim read....just want to say to Weezl....K isn't talking at all and completely ignores 90% of anything I ask him to do. I know he understands but is choosing to ignore me, as he will follow the instructions sometimes!!

just popped in to ask a quick question.....What did you all do for Christenings/Baptisms/Naming ceremonies...in terms of afterwards? Did you go home, invite everyone back home, book a venue, have a party at a pub, lay on kiddie entertainment etc, etc,

Will try and check back soon for replies, need to find out what the hell this rank smell is that has been bugging me:(

Buttonmoons

Just thought I'd pop in and let you all know I have been given the green light for my tummy tuck I have to go back in 3months, and of lost a few lbs but it's easy peasy, then after that, I get put on the waiting list. Deffo getting it! He said it's one of the worst he has seen, and then asked me to go and get pictures done to get put in a medical journal :eek: I did do it though!

Excuse the crumbs.

Does that make sense? Do your reins have a big walking strap and two shorter straps? The two shorter straps are threaded through the holes from the bottom, then clipped to the main bit!

Brilliant news Buttons. :T

:j:j great news buttons! Don't stay away so long in future either, I need your funnies to cheer me up when I'm knackared.

Mel - We had food after Chris's christening in the hall attached to church. Ed's was during a service and there was a faith supper after as it was the building's 'birthday' so after the food we went to MILs for champers and cake.
A friend of mine had her son's naming ceremony in her parents garden with a BBQ after. I don't like how some people have a big p' up at a pub personally.
