    He just sits in it at the minute and watches TV lol or I put the play tray on and he plays with his toys on there, I just use it when he gets bored of laying on his back, you can pick them up on ebay for quite cheap

    Evening everyone

    Thanks for the links yesterday, but I needed one directly to the WHO website really which stated the calorie intake for adults/children! I have scoured the site myself but couldn't find what I was after...

    Can't stop as I am busy, busy. I have chatted to dh and he was very lovely and understanding, he said he already knew everything I was saying and wasn't cross or annoyed with me, I thought he might accuse me of being stupid/callous/emotionless etc but he didn't, he was and is great:)

    I have a huge list of jobs that need doing so am trying to get through them....have spent most of this evening sorting photos out on computer and emailing my mum a load, she has been hassling me for a while to send her some, she wants to put them on her digital photo frame. I have also done loooooaaaaads of paperwork sorting and filing, still quite a lot to do though. I also have a whhole bin bag of 3-6 mth clothes to sort through that I have been given, I want to work out what I want to keep and what I don't......then I have 5 bin bags of clothes on the landing upstairs to sort through and list on ebay!!!!!! I am also proof reading a first draft of a book, that my mum's boyfriend is hoping to get published.

    Must go will try and catch up tomorrow

    Hope you are all well and love to you all for all your support and kind words xx

    Lovely pics of Elliot :)

    Looks like everyone has gone!

    I really need to go pack for Scotland seeing as we are leaving first thing :eek: So I'm off to do that now then go to bed. It's been a great week but I am tired and i will be glad of the rest next week.

    I am taking the lappy with me to MIL's but can't very well be using it the whole time we are away so will only be popping in and out until next weekend.

    Hope everyone has a great week with lots of sleep, mummy cuddles, mummy and daddy cuddles ( ;) ), refunds, disappearing spots, good luck with child minders / nurseries, interesting jury services, fun pregnancy things, positive chats with OHs, and anything else they may desire!!! :D

    Evening all.

    Gym - congrats to you and OH x

    Kindof - v cute pics :) looks like E likes his Bumbo, T looks lost in hers still

    EA - hope your dad is ok x

    Me and OH have decided we need a 3 wheel pushchair with inflatable three. Would be so much better for the walks we are doing ATM. Been looking on eBay but OH was saying we could get a new one if we could find for arouund £120. Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations as mothercare is crap for 3 wheelers unless you want a travel system!

  • I'm back briefly :D


    We watched The Time Traveller's Wife and I don't think hubby was prepared for how good the story was and how weepy he would be. He says he feels drained.

    Strange for me because I was reading the book when I was in labour/in hospital/at home being a new mummy so it is mingled with many hormones and memories :cool:

    Gorgeous pics!

    Night all xx

    Hmmmm, I read so many reviews about this book and they often said it was waaaay to slow to get going so I haven't bothered to read it. Did you think that too MFD?

    Grrrr D has woken up every hour since 8 and is currently thinking 2am is a really great time to get up and play. I disagree :(. Guess who is currently winning the 'debate' :o

  • Morning all. We had a lovely evening last night, but got home at 10:30 to a little girl who was still up with granny and grandad. Got her to bed about 11 or so, then me to bed at about half 12. Then we have been up again since 4am. Today is going to be a struggling day, but never mind. Maybe DH will let me have a nap later.

    Aless - I have my lovely techno xlr fir that and all though it's not a 3 wheeler I can still manage it with one hand, we need the gyres cos we have been walking on some very bumpy ground so the zia wouldn't solve that.

    Am off to look at freecycle now.
