    .............. I have a baby who thinks it's cool to stand unaided for a few seconds and then topple backwards and giggle :eek:

    NOT READY.

    CSH - I worry about Jack's portion sizes. At lunch time, he only had half a piece of toast, 6 cubes of cheese and a slice of cooked chicken (deli style meat not a breast) then 5 grapes.
    He tends to just clamp his mouth shut when he's full so I keep feeding him til we get to that stage. Must get a picture of his 'I'm full' face as its hiliarous! :rotfl:

    I've had diawoowoo a lot recently as well :(

    I've not been feeling great. Really tired and down but not sleeping well atall.
    snap am exactly the same? think the tiredness makes things worse? i am also finding im eating more rubbish to keep me going and then going round in circles?

    No sore neck Tia?
    I feed Erin or rather she feeds herself until she wont eat any more, i tend to put smaller portions on all the kids plates and then if they are still hungry they will get more rather than huge portions that dont get touched!

    Choppy thanks....I am completely overdoing it though, I will take it easy one day.

    Bruno, it would only be me or dh falling out of bed......our whole bedroom is a child free zone! The kids aren't even allowed through the door, never mind in the bed:p To be fair they do pop their heads in to ask something if we are in there and I don't really mind that, but they are not allowed to messa bout in there and illnesses/sleepless nights etc are solved by me going to them, not bringing them to me:)

    We got some stuff done, two pictures hung, one bookcase built, desk brought downstairs, 2 skip runs, 3 washing loads, moved the fridge freezer and full tidy of the kitchen..including scrubbing the floor...... Still need to build another bookcase, the cot, and chest of drawers all upstairs..and hang the Huuuge picture on the wall!!!

    Got my mum to come round on monday with her boyf, he is a plumber and I want him to plumb in our fridge:)

    Kai has been so funny today, he is becoming such a character....I love it:D

    yay for teeth, sleeping through - very jealous of both!

    Yeah for Amber rocking!

    Well done Rhys :j

    NMS - what awful news. Very :mad: for you. At least they didn't come upstairs x

    Been busy tidying up and getting ready for visitors over the next few weeks. Jack has started pulling himself up today - he did it on OH's leg so I missed it but then he did it for me too. :j
    He has also proper escaped the Bumbo- I popped him in there when I went to put the tea on, heard a bang and he was on his back on the floor. :eek: But he's got a lovely mark on his forehead so he must have got out, hit his head face first then rolled over and hit it again :(

    Tia - good idea with the paddling pool! I think I'll start feeding Jack on the floor cos most of his food ends up on the floor anyway!

    Yey go Jack! So many babies doing new things today! Well done standing, crawling, rocking, eating custard babies!! And teeth for Kian! Must be the sunshine :D

    CSH, I'd call that a meal!

    I give Amber stuff and leave her to sit and munch till she starts getting cranky, then she wants her milk. Meal sizes right now is, lets say... 1 slice of bread with filling, half a small pear or banana, vegetable stick, baby biscuit (or a plain digestive etc). Of that I'd expect her to actually eat about half.

    Hey everyone

    I just popped in to say hello :)

    Elliot had me up at 2am, wide awake he was lol he finally went to sleep at 4am so I went back to bed just after that but had to get up at half 7 grr (we didnt go to bed till midnight as it was, big mistake lol)

    We were through at my mam's today cos OH was painting the tiles on the outside of her house for her

    How is everyone?

    Elliot is at my mam's for the night and I am missing him like mad already, I mean its nice having some freedom for me and OH to chill and a full nights sleep ahead, but I am really missing him

    I hope my mam will be ok with him, I just know how cry-y he can get and I hope he doesnt get her too stressed out with it, I know she will be fine and she knows what to do etc but I still worry lol
