    ((Hugs)) JM I hope your time away clears your head! I love your pics too.

    ((Hugs)) Sparkle too. Bl00dy men (Bruno & MOTM excepted).

    SS I love your new facebook pics too. We're very jealous of Mollys beautiful dark hair.

    Jillie I'm glad the christening went well. Any pics? Have you still got family there keeping you busy?

    Sami I worried about being one of those pushy mums sending L to every club available (not to mention the costs involved!). Over the years she's done dancing, football and gymnastics but gymnastics is the only one she really loves and has stuck at for 5+ years. She quite often comes home from school wanting to join whichever club her best friend of the week is attending, but I normally see how long she goes on about it before phoning to arrange it. She's normally gone onto something else by the following week.

    ETA: I knew I forgot something.
    MDW good luck with Katie in her own room! I hope it helps her to sleep even better and you both get a nice lie in tomorrow!

    MDW - good luck with Katie

    Hugs JM

    Thanks 3 - she's quite a good sleeper anyway, normally clambers in about 7am, a lie in would be lovely but I'm back to work.

    I'm starting Katie off slowly with activities - she does swimming and dancing.

    The other things I'd like her to have a go at is gymnastics and Rainbows.

    Maz - thanks yay for pooing on the toilet.

    Programme about toddler sleeping problems just started on Ch4.

    Well done to clever big boy Henry!

    MDW Maybe she can have a couple of nights practice and let you sleep in at the weekend.

    Would be nice, I'm also thinking it as the most gentle way I could hint that it's time to drop the morning bf

    Evening everyone, we've had a lovely day here.

    Went to the park with Lilys cousin Poppy, i was taking a pic of Poppy and she walked upto the camera with her arms folded 'gangsta' style and when i took the pic, she took the camera off me to have a look at it. She's 20month old! :rotfl:

    (pics to follow)

    Lily has been weighed, she's 15lbs 11ozs now. She dropped half a centile, so we have to get her weighed again in 4 weeks to see if she stays in the middle of 50th & 75th. She was 91st to start with.
    I really hope they can too, I just think it would be mint, yeah, me and gym were due on the same day, and you the day before? I cant remember Som's due date but I know Tahlie was born on the 15th march :)

    We'll have to sort something out, maybe if there is another one in the kinda middle of the country then we can do that one?

    I think i was due 2nd, but gave bith first? :p

    Yeah deffo, at the moment we just cant afford it and i feel it would be unfair to take Lily on a train for 3/4 hours :( I'd also have to take 3/4 bottles and 2 pots of food with me. As well as her pram, change of clothes, nappies and wipes and toys.

    I did baked potatos for DH once, when i cut it open there was a massive black slug looking thing in the middle. We haven't had them since.

    I was worried when coming from the pregnancy thread that this thread would be cliquey, but i feel once you get stuck in its fine.
    My posts are sometimes ignored, but i dont feel thats on purpose (unless it is, then :( :rotfl: ) But i often post un replyable rubbish anyway :p

    Weezl, that photo is beautiful.

    Som, its a shame you dont live here. On fb there is a Portsmouth prams buy & sell, and some people sell Muras.

    SS, Molly is beautiful :D Fab Tutu!

    Kindof, that woman is a prrk. Yes its great to bf for 6m or longer, i wanted to. But there were many reasons why i couldn't and didn't want to. Im sure im not poisioning Lily.

    Maz, woohoo for toilets poops! :D

    Pics from today:
    Lily flying :D
