    Hey :) My dad took me and Elliot out for lunch today, and Elliot played up big time :( All you could hear throughout the pub was screaming. I couldn't control him, didn't really know what to do. I tried letting him get it out his system on the floor (paddy rolling around) but then as quick as a flash ran off and I almost lost him out the fire exit! I ended up strapping into a highchair and he screamed his head off (me wishing i was somewhere else minus elliot)....took about half an hour for him to calm down and eventualy he gave in and ate some food. I hate it when he's like this, i feel like a cra p mom and feel like everyone is looking at me. Even worse when my hubby isn't with me for support.

    Please please be in a good mood tomorrow and don't show me up! :(

    caz - what a bu88er, to say the least. I've used kiddicare a couple of times with no problem, maybe they have a stokke problem??

    All this talk of new puschairs - am I the only mummy on the planet with only 1 pushchair?? Although MIL has 2 hand me downs from neighbours at hers - a reasonable M&P travel system which does get used and a knackered maclaren triumph with worn down wheels which might get used if I can fix the wheels and SIL takes travel system off us in new year.

    haha - Thomas has just found the last sticky table corner bumper and pulled it off to chew!!!! clever lad!

    always- i only 1 pushchair. it goes between us and PIL. Have said thewy can get their own but they are happy to use ours.
    i dont really see the point of having more. maybe 1 lightweight if you drive but otherwise nah cant understand it. although we certainly dont have the space for another one anyway
