    Morning all, well E has had me awake since 4.15am, I attempted to put him back in bed but his dummy kept falling out and waking him up, so after 45 mins of going up and down the stairs I gave up and brought him back down here and he is in his swing currnetly asleep, oh he just turned his head and his dummy is stuck on his cheek lol

    I think hes got a cold, he sounds all bunged up and he sneezed loads before and proper green bogies came out!!!!

    Jillie this last year must have been horrendous for you and for DH's family. I hope yesterday will enable everyone to 'move on' and focus more on the future :grouphug:

    Krystal Great cake!


    kindof - I hope you managed to get some more sleep. lol @ the bogies :rotfl:

    D decided that 3 am to 4.15 am was play time but he wasn't crying or scratching his eczema so I left him to it and dozed off again :D. Well, it is another gorgeous day here although it does, thankfully, feel cooler so I think I will take D for a nice walk along the river and then pop in to town for his prescription and I might even treat myself to a cake and a coffee :cool:

    MFD so sorry about your job.

    Just posting and running yet again as busy today. Was out all day yesterday visiting family in Peterborough. Stayed down there and fed Alfie at 7ish then set off home. Hoped to get him from car to bed without waking him but he did wake and was a bit unsettled, fed him for 5 mins and he slept through til 7am so that was fab. I was debating waking him here at 11pmish (can't do dream feeds as he just wakes up) but then I won't know when he's actually ready to sleep right through as I;ll be waking him up. If I just leave him at some point he will regularly sleep right through. Hmmm.

    Krystal love that cake!!! I am going to shamelessly steal the design though I think, hope you don't mind!

    Hugs all round. Off for food now then baking :)

    MFD I don't think I fully articulated the depth of my :mad: for you. :mad: :mad: :mad: and all their hard angry friends.

    Tara, great news! Well done convincing him gently, it must have been a masterwork of patience and tongue-biting.

    :grouphug: Jillie

    KOAG, sorry about OH's job, but it gets that guy out of competition for the next one ;)

    Excellent cake Krystal!

    Night Searchie.

    I've just read my Bounty email (i don't usually) about my 68 week old baby, and its about potty training. Surely 15 months old is too early to be thinking about potty training?

    Just a bit too young - we are trying with LO now and shes 26 months and still not really bothered. I dont think she has the feeling yet that its about to happen so until that happens we are a bit stuck.

    Roo has been in a bed since 15 months as she is such a little houdini she could climb out and twice landed on the floor so we thought she was safer in a bed. She dosnt stay there tho and hasnt ever slept through the night

    MFD- hope everything works out for you - what a stressful time

    Boo - I thought the necklaces were for biting on how silly do I feel now - they look lovely but LO has all her teeth now

    Morning! I think someone's teeth were hurting him last night as he kept waking up with different noises than the usual I-want-mommy-it's-dark wimper/cry. Been thinking about Boo's teething necklaces when I get paid as they really are reasonably priced and I don't like using chemically medicines if I don't have to.

    jillie - just a thought, but can you find flights for cheaper than the TC website? My dad & his GF want to go to Greece and TC are 1 of only 2 airlines that fly to that island.

    Had my first WW weigh-in this morning - down 3.5 lbs! Woohoo! :beer: :T :D

    Krystal - awesome cake.

    MFD - poo for work. I hate all this, too, but wondering if this makes my organisation more favorable to me going PT or less? Hmmm...

    SJ - lucky you. Sometimes I wonder if I didn't actually feed Finn when he woke up at 2/3 if he'd be fine, but I'm too chicken to test it as when I do feed him then he does seem genuinely hungry.

    !!!!!!... eBay Live Help is telling me to tell the seller to cancel the transaction on eBay and just pay him via Paypal.

    Erm, trading outside ebay is against the rules, is it not??

    Edit: Oh now he's saying for the seller to put it up as a BIN instead. Whyyyyyyyy?? And now i'm gonna start hating this blimmin Apple. :mad:

    << Already does

    Get the refund and walk away! Hve you been looking on Netmums/Gumtree for something you can just go and pick up or leave if you don't like it or doesn't have a basket etc?

    Anyone watching The Scheme on BBC1?

    Not tonight but have seen it before. Very funny! Is it only on BBC Scotland or does everyone get it?

    Happy Birthday lovely Caitlyn

    Well, we had the best night here that we've had for ages, but it did still include a wake at 10:30 which is something I hope doesn't become a habit! I feel tons better for having an early night myself.

    Well done on your weight loss Aless, what a fab start. Typically it is my WI tonight and I feel totally bloated today, after feeling fab yesterday! Never mind, will see how I get on later.

    Are you spa-ing it at CP, MFD? I love, love, love the CP spa and cannot wait to go myself in four weeks.

    How about a CP meet? That would be amazing!
    :DYummy mummy, runner, baker and procrastinator :p
