Some may not want to, I on the other hand understand the importance of my time so will probably run out of the door! :rotfl:Organisation, I'm happy to look into some hotels but will leave each person (or 2's) to book their own as I'm not taking any financial responsibilities.
But we all need to suggest where?
Do you think it will be those of us with 3+ children will be the keenest to escape them? :rotfl:
Although as MFD said, I do love to meet everyone elses gorgeous babies.
I'm sure someone computer-clever could produce a UK map, that all of those interested could access and put a pin in where we live - then it could calculate the most central point for everyone?
On that note, i'm off to bed. My eyes are closing all on their own.

Had a wonderful day today, met Tara and Maddy (who's utterly adorable) and then spent the day at Bicton botanical gardens. Tara I can't thank you enough for letting us know about this place, Daniel had so much fun he zonked out straight away tonight
Gorgeous pic
Where did you get Daniels outfit? I love it!:cool:Oh I forgot, I mentioned to Dora that I would love to come up for a summer meet and also that I thought, *waits to be shot down* that we 'all' deserve a break, and I think a weekend somewhere, roundabout Birmingham, without the children!!! :eek:
I love the idea and Birmingham is very do-able for me but......jillie1974 wrote: »ooh a child free night sounds brill

El has just recently gone into a big girl bed (cotbed) and she still shouts for me in the morning and doesn't come thru until I shout her to come. She does however mysteriously venture into strange places during the night!!SeptemberBaby wrote: »Poppy is still in a cot and has never once attempted an escape! Its a cotbed so quite big. She just lies and reads a book shouting 'Mummy, I'm shouting you, Mummy' when she wakes
.
We hired one of those side thingys for her bed whilst away and its the first time she has slept without bars
. She didn't even get out when she woke even though she was free!

Tara that is great bout DS :jEveryone is entitled to their opinionEllie 25/12/070 -
it was the inquest into SIL death today. PIL went. didnt tell DH till this evening though.
as expected cause of death was suicide. Policeman who first on the scene gave report, her own GP and the the hospital report from when she had been taken to a&e.
Dh said its like this was the last thing to be sorted as now they have the death certificate. sad day but now i feel that we can all move on. next hardest will be the anniversary, but i want to celebrate Kian's 1st birthday too as i dont want it to be all sad. i know we will be and there will most likely be a few tears of sadness that she never got to meet Kian. oops i have tears now. sorry but i just needed to share with my lovely friends on here who have given me amazing virtual hugs and fabulous words of wisdom over the last 8 1/2 months.'Children are not things to be moulded, but are people to be unfolded'0 -

i made one in home economics and used buttons instead of flakes. was a lot easier.
need to practise over the summer though.
oh and buy a electric beater and tins to cook the cake mixture in as well lol!! :rotfl:'Children are not things to be moulded, but are people to be unfolded'0
