Great news Elle!! that little man is such a star

3 give your friend a HUGE hug from us all, i cannot imagine what she and other ladies in that situation go through
and if L is wanting a cheeky little brother then i can do a straight swap for OH car for Erin and Charlie 
Well we went for a walk tonight as Charlie had fallen asleep and i needed to tire him out or it would be a nightmare. We ended up at a huge hidden pond in the woods and were all throwing stones in the water! we were having such a laugh and the kids were enjoying themselves when Charlie decided to run into the water and wouldnt stop until he fell! I couldnt stop laughing and he just stayed on his hands and knees not making a sound but refused to get up or come out??? I took my shoes off and rolled up my trousers to get him when he eventually decided to come out in fits of laughter, we were all laughing at him and the more we laughed the more he did!
Had to strip him off and wring his clothes out, i cant believe what happend although i did get some great pics fingers crossed they work!

What's for you won't go past you0 -
Caz - it looks like they all had a fabulous time.

Silly as it is, I feel a little guilty for having no problem conceiving.

I heard the Social Services stuff on the news today and it doesn't surprise me - the seem to be so underfunded/staffed.
Our SW is coming out tomorrow, it'll be interesting to see if he's as good as he was last week when his boss was with him. :rotfl:
I think a lot of people feel guilt about many things they have that others aren't as fortunate enough to experience.
I've known people who have lost children, both during pregnancy and at a young age and it's awful to witness. My own sister, who I haven't spoken to in 8 years, miscarried earlier this year and I still felt bad. I don't want to, and can't, imagine what that is like. My girls are everything to me (I include Lucy in that) and not having any of them is not an option, so when I hear stories such as your friend, it saddens me that a couple are not yet capable to experience the joys I do. I hope they have success very soon.
Enjoy the SW visit. He's off the leash now

It depends on when he goes to bed, he normally goes to bed at 7pm, and he's usually had bottle and dinner 6-6.30pm, so then he gets a dream feed when I go to bed at 9 or half 9, but last night his routine went tits up lol
Awww Beenie thats such a cute pic
Also lush pics Caz
3 - I agree, I feel guilty all the time when people ask me how long it took to concieve E, as it only took a week, I even know the exact day cos we *ahem* only did it once that month lol
BUT at the same time, I had major problems with periods from age 16 and they thought I might not be able to have kids, so I was obv very happy
Well we had a good night ish, he finally went to sleep at 9pm, then woke at 12.45am for a feed, he woke again at 3.45am and I KNEW he couldnt have been hungry, so I gave him his dummy back and put his projection show on, then next thing I know its 5.30am
