    hello chaps :)

    thought I'd look in on you all and see how you all are?

    If anyone fancied saying a summary of the news I'd love that, but I know it's tricky in a fast moving thread!

    News from me: nothing super exciting, am having a new kitchen which is pretty complex with 2 little boys to work round!

    Kessie is 4 and a half months now and getting much more settled in his previously screamy slot from 7-9pm.

    Fergie's doing great properly walking and has 9 words :) yes, no, moo, baa, poo, daddy, gessie (kessie), tea (any drink usually milk) and yiyah (hiya! for hello)

    So I'm very chuffed and hope the HVs will be pleased at his 18 month review.

    3 - footmuff??? Is it really cold in the North West?

    I was thinking it might be in the winter. Do you not use yours in winter?

    Oh another one I forgot to add to my last Lexi-isms, We were at my mums last weekend and she has a washer / dryer. Little Miss Lexi changed it from washer to dryer and put it on the highest heat and melted the washing - its a good job Nannie loves Lexi x

    Oops! :rotfl:

    Lovely to see you Sparkle. I forgot to comment earlier about the freezer. I had the lollys in the bottom drawer of the freezer but got fed up of V bringing them too me, so I reorganised it. Now she keeps bringing me frozen meatballs. :(

    She likes finding the dog treats too, and feeding them to him. That's probably why the dog loves her and follows her around.

    Lovely to see you too Weezl. Fergie sounds incredibly cute!, and i'm glad Kessie is getting more settled in his old age. :D

    I'm still waiting for her to be ready to go. She just made a list and told me she was going by herself. When she changed her mind about me coming I asked her why and she said, "Because I'm worried that I can't drive the car because it's dangerous to drive the car so I need you to drive it."

    That's such a beautiful photo, Weezl.

    There have been a few gorgeous parent-child photos recently - Bruno's from a couple of days ago was gorgeous as well. And the kids-alone ones are also very adorable.
