    Charlotte has got one of them magic writing boards where you can write on it, then pull the thingy on it and rub it away. We were playing with it tonight and I was writing words for her. Then she said "write bum now", so I wrote bum and she just giggled hysterically and kept saying "that says bum - hee hee hee hee." Then I had to do poo, wee, boobies, willy and pump which were all hilarious too :rotfl:
    At least she's amused by real words - we were making words with the foam bath letters and I was getting Alice to change one letter at a time so we did hand, land, band, bang, bane. There were two 'e's so she tried each one to check it said the same with each and then she put them both on together. Apparently "banee" is absolutely hysterical - I think it's the only time I've known Alice properly laugh hysterically.

    Morning,

    MM gorgeous pics of a gorgeous boy, hope he had a lovely birthday, x

    Aless, glad last night wasn't too horrible

    3 my sis is 10 and she thinks my constant use of the word poo is totally unfunny :p In fact, no rude words impress her, tsk!

    Beenie I almost peed myself at the pony convo :rotfl: We had some gyppos move in near us a few weeks ago on a Friday night, gone by Sunday morning - gotta love nosey/moangy neighbours :cool:

    Sami I love Edgar's name, if we ever have a second boy I think it'll be his name - OH is totally sold because he thinks Edgar Davids has the coolest name ever!

    Becles, Charlotte is so cute :A

    'Sophie' is the giraffe teether right? Why is it so amazing? OHs dad is off to France shortly and as I'm cheap, I was planning to get him to pick one up for us, but figured I'd need to justify why he must get it?!

    Tara sorry but the tan hand mark made me laugh :rotfl: Did also make me think I need to be more careful, 4 weeks 6 days til we get married :eek: Have you pics of your wedding dress? I need inspiration :o

    We've been up ages - Guy decided 4.45 was wake up time and didn't want to drop back off, wasn't 'my night' but got up all the same so we've been playing and only now has he gone back to sleep! Took him to the docs yesterday to get his head checked out after our trip down the stairs, thankfully he's fine, I felt like the most awful parent ever though, was saying to the doc I don't know how anyone could hurt a child on purpose as I felt so awful doing it by accident, you must be totally stone hearted to do it on purpose :(

    Busy day today, off to Ikea once it opens (debating getting an Antilop - when would he realistically start using it?) then need to go to the mortgage peoples, sort out my house survey, clean the house properly for tomorrows viewing and sort out all my c*rp to take to do a carboot on Sunday morning, tired just thinking about it :o

    Apparently my name is 44th in the US. Alice is 245th and OH is in the top ten. I don't think mine is as popular here although I suppose it's counting everyone who is alive and it used to be more popular. I wonder if the Narnia films have made Susan more popular here recently though? When I did supply in a nursery the children thought I might be from Narnia.

    Gym, we only started planning this wedding in April but the dress was the first thing I sorted as it's being adjusted to fit me. Have you thought about Littlewoods, otherwise it will be Ebay, but make sure it will come in time. X

    Names come and go! I found a few things for the UK, but nothing super-recent. Like Susan said, though, that website is all living people, whereas most name data comes from birth registers.

    Not sure what's on the books today, depends on the weather :p. Could walk down to the coffee shop to splurge in a cuppa, but feel a bit like a saddo when in there alone.

    Krystal, I am absolutely no expert at all so I can only suggest things I've read like offering water instead or just refusing to give the booby but still being comforting, etc. :o

    Wonder if Finn's new-to-us England romper from eBay will come today for the game. Not that it matters, as he will be in bed well before kick-off! :D

    Weird, I tried to quote Sami and it didn't work. No crutches, but it doesn't seem to stop him, he hops and crawls!

    My middle name is much less popular :D

    Fantastic night here 8pm til 7am - I actually had my make up on without any assistance this morning :dance::dance::dance::dance::dance::dance::dance::dance::dance:

    Sorry but I've not had a night like that since about January :j

    Tara - early for you isn't it? As my Dad would say, did you wet the bed? :rotfl:

    I buy it OTC, I've never been actually diagnosed as having hayfever or asked for a 'script because both times I had my exemption I still had loads stockpiled :rotfl: I buy it in bulk as per martin's instructions :money:
    maybe you should print the leaflet and give it to your GP ;)

    I've had mine on prescription since I was 15, back in the days when clarityn was horrifically expensive! They moved me to neoclarityn when that stopped working.

    I think I'll buy some zirtek save hassle of docs appointment!

    We had a really really good night. He was in bed at 8.45 which is the earliest so far. We went to bed at midnight anh he was stirring a bit and kicked his sheet off, but he slept until 5am! He went back until 8am altho he did keep whinging, snuffling and squealing inbetween sleeps. I'm not getting my hopes up for this being regular thing as the heat makes him sleepy and he has a bit of a cold i think.

    He was really snuffly when DH did his nappy this morning, so much so that he wouldnt leave for work (T was in his chair) until i came down coz he didnt want to leave him alone. I think it's just a cold and a result of lying on his back all night but I'm just a bit concerned with it being friday and the doctors being closed all weekend. Do you think there's anything they can do to help or should i just keep him sat up all day? He seems well in himself and is feeding with no problems (he struggled on wed eve when cold first started) so he cant be too blocked up.

    Hope everyone else is ok and had a good night
