Alice is crying because Daddy's gone to work.

Aww poor thing, we've had this a lot recently as OH has been working a week at home and a week abroad. Monday morning was painful. Then she got attached to one of our builders and yelled the place down when he left.

Still 3 more builders here now, and hubby so she's spoilt for choice!

It is so sad to see though. (And nice in a melt-your-heart kind of way)

Haha, Kindof i prefer brunos post. Nice and easy and no brain ache

Hi everyone, OH let me have a massive lay in this morning by taking Lily out. He sounds fab yes?
Well kind of. He only went out as he thought he might have a chance of getting Red Dead Redemption by going out early! :rotfl:

We have looked in every shop that sells games in the past few days and they are all sold out. Then we found out the Game can reserve them for you when they get them in.

So he went early this morning and put his name down for reserve, and now he has the game he has been hunting for for days :rotfl:

But he did buy me a twirl bar and offered me some shoes, but i said no as i want to look at shoes to decide

Lily has started falling asleep with her legs in the air :rotfl: We think the next step of development for her is grabbing her feet, but for now she just looks like a book end
She has this leapfrog catapiller toy that sings classical music and other songs, and she loves it. The music sends her off to sleep

I actually strongly dislike our cat, she's a million years old and annoys the crap out me. I want a dog

Could use some funny baby stories for cheering up, having a really tough time at the moment.

I hated ours too, then the little bastage died and I felt bereft without him. THEN I moved a shelf to find that he had managed to pee behind it, and whenever I go into that room I can smell him :mad:

Today a new boy at Gymboree stole the ball out of Molly's hands so she glared at him and turned herself so she had her back to him. Nothing like making an unpleasant boy invisible :rotfl:

Would it cheer you up to plan a lovely Bank Holiday day out? You'll be near the Hundred Acre wood and the llama farm, and there's a 13th century castle nearby you could visit too.................... and Chequers is the pub in the village where Arthur Conan Doyle supposedly did something to do with the Hound of the Baskervilles...

SS - wow at Mandrin speaking 4 yo, wonder how fluent he was an if he'll keep it up!

Nobody knows because they don't speak it themselves :rotfl:
Apparently if a child learns a second language early on they stay pretty good at language learning later and can flow back into languages they forget. Pretty awesome though

I'm sorry you're not having a great time of it though

And SS... I feel I bad for such a high score on lexulous... The tiles (and indeed the board) have been ridiculously kind to me!!

S'ok the tiles are always rotten to me. If I could mix the tiles I had in your game with the ones in Bruno's game I'd have kicked everyone's butts, but I had all vowels in one and all consonants in another :rotfl:

:j for Mr Elle!

Do we know how SM's Philip did?

jennynoo

workinmummy, I'll send it up to you if it doesn't fit


Elle, congrats on OH's job . I have the same spider problem it's not doing my nerves any good.

I think it's because quite a few times recently he's gone to work when she's been asleep. And she's tired. (Which is why she's been sleeping in and missing him in the mornings.) She was up at seven this morning though doing her stoutness exercises (from Winnie the Pooh) so she did actually get to see him before he went to work today.

ss, oo we were just going to be boring and go to east grinstead, but tell me more about the llamas and the castle??

Evansangel

OH just told me that Lily jammed her leg in the bars of her crib last night and tried to turn over.

I remember hearing a massive scream but i was in such a deep sleep i fell back to sleep.

She seems fine now and her leg looks ok, but i feel bad for just falling asleep

Ha, that bit made me :rotfl:. Izzy cried when my Mum left the other day... then she came back because she had forgotten something and left again :eek:.

Sleeping baby is sleeping. In her own bed. Only because she fell asleep on me and I waited till she was completely sparko before I put her down. Best get on with some ~stuff~ before she wakes up again!

Llamas!

Pooh Bear!

I can't find the castle but I swear I've read about one.

Argh, my baby has the miserables... I've knocked 1 and a half things off my list... In Laws are bound to turn up now while my hoover is in the middle of the floor and I'm still the great unwashed...

Remember Mfd's random facebook thing with the practice wife? I've just had one... My sisters first boyfriend... We have no friends in common or anything... Not even my sister... How does facebook know?!
