    She's being very gaggy eating her dinner tonight (cheese sandwich and a banana, it's her very favourite!) she does have a snotty cold though.

    I could do with some of your motivation Tia... My house is a state... Just got no enthusiasm to get it sorted out...

    Just gave Caitlyn a bit of chocolate sponge... She's crumbled it all into a heap... Looks like I'll have to get the hoover out in a min...

    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    Krystal, all the stuff came down from the loft and its getting done. Plumber is here on tuesday to do stuff so kids room needs to be tidied (radiator getting moved) and the boiler is in our room so it needs to get tidied. Then the joiner gets here in 3 weeks so kids room has to be ready, and... yeah it all needs done.

    I do feel so much better with every bag that is chucked out. And I want to do more and more cos I can see a difference now.

    Back from my walk - got a third of the way round when the heavens opened - hailstones and everything. Absolutely drenched. Dilemma of course was which direction to go, so ended up turning back. 1 hour of walking and running when raining is not bad.

    Tia/Caz - Bizziebaby has family tickets for M&Ds in case you hadn't seen it. Was on Facebook. Just in case you fancy it. It's 2 mins from me but can't really claim a family ticket!

    Aless - I think that's a pretty good price for a Learn & Groove!

    An hour sounds like a very good effort Fitz! Sorry to hear you got wet.

    Anyone looking for cool baby boy clothes needs to check out H&M. We got some absolutely gaw-jus stuff in there today after struggling to find anything interesting in Next or M&S. I highly recommend it.

    LOL maybe I am stressing about his weight too much lol, any chance you could tell me how heavy H was when he was 8 weeks old (I know that might not make a difference lol but it might help my stupid brain realise E wont be 20lbs for a while lol)
    Draw a line across his weight chart at 9kg (20lbs). Then look at which centiles he is between and see where they cross the line. Where they cross the line, look down to the bottom of the page and that will give you an idea of the age range that he will reach 20lbs.

    Just had a quick skim read as I've been busy all day.

    Congrats Newbie-Maz - hope the planning all goes well.

    Hope you get the basket sorted out Beenie. I would expect it to be included as it was in the picture, and I would have assumed it was part of the chassis.

    Charlotte was making lunch with my Dad today and they used the last slice in a packet of ham. She picked the packet up and said to my Mam, "excuse me Susan, can you just pop that in the bin", and followed it up with "there's a good girl" :rotfl:
    Here I go again on my own....

    Love some Caz, thanks. I am feeling like the scullery maid as opposed to the wife this evening.

    I should probably eat something, too. I had a snack at 11am and that's been it so far.
