    Always - sounds like are brothers are similar, mine didnt even send a card when T was born!! I hope you gave OH a kick up the backside for doing a rubbish job. Beer drinking sounds a fab way to spend your BH :D

    DK - if you need to escape for an hour or so Im always up for coffee again x

    EA - lovely jumperoo pic.

    Sami - our pressure fit stairgate has left indentations in the walls so we may as well have gotten fixed ones!

    Caz - thats really not what you need, kiddiecare sound a nightmare!

    Beenie - we have the polly and T doesnt mind it, we chose it cos it packs away to a good size. As for covers you can order new ones via Mothercare.

    MOTM - your little old lady neighbour sounds a sweetie, I have a soft spot for oldies like that, even if they can be a little ecentric.

    Mel - cute pics and am loving her little outfit :D woot for getting dress changed.

    gill - yeay for sophie being a success :D I dont know where we would be without ours. Hope your carvery was yummy.

    NMS - Im with jillie, my mum says she will pay for Ts shoes but I fully expect us to all go together and get them. If not Id be :(

    Chopy - Hope C gets better soon x

    CAFC - No idea what to say but what your saying sounds a little familiar. I get really cranky when am tired and run down have found taking vits and minerals helps as silly as it sounds.

    SS - your ordering system sounds crazy! wish I could order in advance of xmas, but alas no space.

    Hope all you Ladys and Littlies had a fab meet today and good journeys, cant wait to see some pics :D

    Had a fab boat trip yesterday and T enjoyed watching the ducks and swans go by, was only 45 min bit really the right length before she got bored. Decided to spoon feed here some mashed up banana while we were having our little picnic and she loved it and ate it much better than her baby rice, hardly spat any back out. Am glad you guys warned me about post banana nappies tho lol!

    Went to the Cinema in the evening to see Knight and Day (great film btw) and Nana and Grandady sat Tahlie for the first time :D According to MIL she was perfect :D She ate her baby rice which MIL made up a bit thicker than normal (after the banana eating we thought it would be better). And even better news she drank all the milk I expressed for her from a bottle, after never taking to one before. MIL tried the TT CTN first and she didnt want it, but loved the MAM silk teat one :D

    Oh and so far (touches wood) no more nipping since tuesday!
    Baby :female: Tahlie Lois born 15/3/10 7lb 12 oz :heartpuls
    Working on baby no2 :D
  • We have some nice bedding from Primark, SM. I also second the suggestion of Tesco and suggest Ikea, although I can't remember if you have one near you or not.

    Glad to hear that everyone enjoyed the meet. I'm sorry I couldn't be there.

    Random thought... Krystal, is it your scan tomorrow? (I remember Fri 13th :o)
    Yep...

    Please don't be twins, please don't be twins...


    Ooh, Epic post Som! Glad you had a nice day out and T was so well behaved for the in laws!!!

    Watch out for banana... We've had many a good outfit ruined because it goes all nasty and black and doesn't wash out!

    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    What time? Just so I can pray for you :D


    Did I dream that if you put the clothes in the freezer before you wash them then the banana comes out?

    Actually I think I might have done :o



    I used to feed Benjamin a banana off a spoon to keep him clean :o even now he will rarely hold a banana himself!! A spoon and a fork is fine....a banana is too much hard work - mum holds that :D

    8:30am... Getting it out of the way early lol...

    Never heard that about freezing... I tried rinsing and soaking with washing liquid within minutes of banana crisis but it still stained one of my favourite little dresses :(
