Hey Mooki! So lovely to see you xx

Leila sounds fantastic. They certainly keep you busy don't they!

Benjamin too can do body parts...other than elbows - which he points one hand at his hair and one hand at his feet for!! I think he might have the idea that his 2 hands need to point in different directions but he can't quite fathom it :rotfl:


Yay for sentences too! She certainly is a clever girl.

WRT work stuff I am in a similar situation, albeit I have a date (30 September) and I won't get a payout. Fingers crossed that it all works out for us.

My OH would think that if he waited she might stop crying too. I found kicking him till he either objected or got out of bed was quite effective.

I find this extremely wonderful

I'm so sorry for your loss, sparkle.

Krystal, twins run in my family too - I was one but the other didn't stick, and my father was/is one too.

Thank you for your lovely birthday wishes, Molly is now happily ignoring her birthday present in favour of throwing a dust bunny around

Off to make her a birthday cake - Husband said he'd do it but is mad busy with work so I'm going to find Molly something to eat, make tea and then make cake

Nothing interesting to report from here. Tooth 9 appeared over the weekend and we seem to have gone back to normal night times, after 2 unsettled nights. I wondering if there are any more teeth there but I'm not sticking my fingers anywhere near to find out.

Mookie - lovely post. I can't believe how much Leila says - she must only be about 6 weeks older than Liam but we only have a dozen or so words and he'd much rather watch Mummy prance about singing head, shoulders, knees & toes than actually join in.

Sorry to hear about your job fingers crossed an exciting opportunity is just around the corner for you. Enjoy your me time.

Yay for sleeping babies!

Hope tired mummies get naps!

Hope Mrs Bruno's scan goes well - will you be telling us the flavour Bruno?

We are severely tooth deficient though and still only have 4.5 teeth with the first 4 coming through pretty much all together a few weeks before her first birthday!!

On the personal front, I am due to be made redundant some time soon so i'm already looking for another job. Hopefully i'll be able to take voluntarily redundancy and get a nice 'golden goodbye'.

I hope they give you a good pay out considering the way they messed you (and OH) around.

Jakesmummy

we are also tooth deficient here! only 6 teeth at 16mnth cant see any sign of anymore soon either.. nms i think liam is younger than jas, she still isnt really saying anything apart from dada, but have just been practising with her asking her to say words and she makes a right kind of sound, ie the number of sylables so we'r getting there i think lol!! i think jake just doesnt give her chance to speak cos he never shuts up!!

My dads an identical twin... they were murder when they were younger... my Uncle came round the other week to my parents..confused the life out of William, he didnt know where to look :rotfl::rotfl:

Off to get William weighed via Tescos... wonder what he's going to weigh?

Krystaltips

Well either way I find out next friday... On the 13th... :eek:

Good job I'm religious and not superstitious lol...

Mooki, Leila obviously takes after her very intelligent parents... Caitlyn has no words... She still calls the cat Tsss... And if I shout Dave she then wonders round going "Daa" in the same tone... She doesn't say Mummy or Aimee... Or no... She understands a bit though... If she follows me to kitchen at dinner time, I say "go and sit down then" and she toddles off into her chair... She can understand "take this to Daddy" and other things... She's incredibly entertaining

Congratulations by the way Krystal ( I kind of missed the boat on that one but better late than never!!)

I would like to take all the credit for Leila being a clever bunny but I think that I have to give some credit to the childminder too! She does educational type things with Leila all the time and takes her to the library and things. She's still her only child as her son is now at full time pre-school so she gets her full attention.
