    Only flicked on and off to England game and now had it confirmed why I dont watch footy - pile of poo as Becles said.

    Fitzio - hope things improve, thinking of you.

    Evening again all..

    Bruno, I've just (too late in the evening? I hope not!) txt Caz for you ;) Still no reply to my earlier txt last week sometime tho' :cool: ETA: Fitz, last time Caz went MIA I txt her but then when she came back she said she'd changed her number. The one I'm txting now is the new one she gave me :o

    We had a lovely time, thankyou. Cottage was lovely.

    Rhys seemed to enjoy himself, particularly at the beach with the wind in his hair :D We went to an animal park and saw lots of monkeys, leopards and birds which he was very wide eyed at too :)

    As well as the tooth, he's really taken to rolling again (it's like we've rewound ten months! *rolleyes*) and spinning round on his tum with the occasional getting up on his knees (when upset/determined enough!). He managed pulling himself up to standing using the sofa all on his own but the sofa there had piping on the edge of the seat cushions and ours doesn't so he can't do it here! His other new trick is playing peek-a-boo lying on his front, face down on the carpet then lifting his head quickly.. funny little thing! ;) Unfortunately he's also perfected emotional blackmail quite well too and has the "sticking out bottom lip" look down to a T! :cool:

    Hi everyone, hope your gran in law recovers Fitz :(

    I'm wanting some pushchair entertainment for Amberlino cos she's always munching on the bumper bar (or dropping stuff)... and today we discovered she loves beads cos she was playing with an abacus thing for aaaaaages. So i was thinking of getting her sometihng (cheap) like this: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NEW-Heimess-BEE-Wooden-Dummy-Chain-Baby-Pram-Toy-/350323555721?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_Toys_Games_Toys_CA&hash=item5190e93d89

    Or less cheap, like this: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Wooden-Pram-Pushchair-Toy-Chain-w-Angel-Bell-Beads-/200411423624?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_Toys_Games_Toys_CA&hash=item2ea973a388

    Or forgetting the beads idea and getting something like this, or would it be a total pita?? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150456924383&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

    As i'm sure you all know by now, i can't make decisions on anything :rotfl: You should see the big song and dance i make out of choosing what to cook every night. :p:p:D

    Didn't manage to get to bed early tonight but OH is still at work so no one to tell me off.

    Not sure which toy to get Beenie, I just got Erin a vtech walker today, she loves it :) Only problem was she started trying to use it to stand up but it's on wheels so isn't stable. The ikea cups are still going strong though, super great value for money but can't be used in the buggy!

    keeping in mind that I live in expensive London, it cost me £10 the one time I've been. Is a good way to see a film when you normally wouldn't get the chance. OR can be a good socialising thing if you meet another mum there or something.

    Aless, should have told you sooner, Streatham do a newbies screening. They are a bit useless tho so it's not always on the website. It's $5 (pound sign not working for some reason) but as it's on a Wednesday you can do Orange wed offer as well :money:It's at 10:30, next film is Killers on the 23rd then When in Rome then Shreck then Twilight Eclipse on the 14th July :D so let me know if you want to join me :)

    Musogirl, is where the car parked private land? If not and it's not taxed you can ring the council to get it removed - at least you can here, we have done it before :cool:

    beenie, the tiny love arch looks like too, so i'd go for something simple. I haven't got anything for finn!

    Jenny, oooooo thanks. I've been to the Ritzy in Brixton but ten quid is far too dear for me! 5 is much better.

    I was going to say I'm first on but does it count with Aless and Hammy being on at 3 :rotfl:

    Not sure what happened but William had a bottle at 11ish, went to sleep then he was awake at 5 oclock but for some reason I thought I was up in the night giving a bottle so I picked him up brought him into our bed and he went to sleep till now.....just looked and the nighttime bottle is still there unused !:eek:

    Still not a good time to be getting up especially as for some reason this morning Henry is still asleep.... drat

    Becles - you have way more energy than me! Enjoy boot camp.

    Am still debating getting out of bed, lil girl is havin a good fidget and wriggle while I play tap resort on my iPod lol. Think it's time to go rifle thru the cupboards and sort some breakie tho. Might follow that with an episode of legend of the seeker so I can shamelessly oggle Richards lovely body :).

    When OH gets back from work we are off into town to spend some of my bonus I got in my wages yesterday :D
