    JM, if he's reception I'd take him out for the day... It's not compulsory they're there anyway and 1 day missed playing won't hurt...

    Otherwise, I thought I'd feel guilty doing things like taking Caitlyn swimming while Aimee's at school (or to ITNG which we've booked for while Aimee's at school...) But I try to remind myself that Aimee got 5 years of doing stuff with me, going swimming weekly, going to disney on ice etc... It's only fair Caitlyn gets her own times out too...

    My Aunt frequently tells me she did nothing with my younger cousin because she felt guilty about the older one missing out while he was at school... I think that would make me feel worse...
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    Good luck, GISI!

    Sending non-puppy vibes to Krystal :D.

    And hope it warms up for you, SS.

    Thanks for that website, by the way, it looks like a possibly very dangerous source of gifts in the future!

    Trying to come up with something interesting to bake/make with a tub of strawberries...no cream around, but have everything else I think I'd need for baked goods.

    Lovely pictures so far of yesterday's meet!! :T :T

    Aless it's a great site - but look at the reviews, some of their very cheap stuff looks it.

    I got Husband a green laser two Christmases ago and he loved it to the point that I considered confiscating it :rotfl:

    Baby still asleep, lovely child that she is, but we'll need to up and out if we're going to Gymboree.

    Strawberries ... make a sandwich cake and put them in between it.

    hmmm, wonder if Ladybird got a little extra sleep this morning, as she's usually popped on by now. ;)

    GISI, thinking about you at work has really made me crave Starbucks. Did I mention there's one 5 minutes from our new flat? :rotfl:

    We have one of those to CAFC. Last few mornings I have found little presents on William's bedroom floor despite him being able to go out all night and being taken out for a poo :mad: and dont even get me started on the peeing...

    I've been poking about on dealextreme.com for an hour and have filled my basket with things that everyone I buy birthday gifts for will love - so I can completely sort 2011's birthday gifts for £64ish. Am I being ridiculous?

    Just far too organised SS I'm just managing to do Xmas for this year (well get a start at least)

    Hope it goes well Krystal today

    GISI - good luck meeting bosses boss.

    Glad the meet was good yesterday....

    Rough night last night again which ended up with me on the sofa with LO... dont know why but the last week or so he has been going off to sleep and then wakes at about 3.30 crying and takes ages to go back to sleep....wonder if its the final push of the 2 new teeth at the front maybe?

    its a comfort for me to know im not the only one with "one of those dogs"..... Thing that really bugs me is that he pees up the back door, whilst the back door is wide open because he's too much of a diva to go out in the yard when its rained/raining.... i mean ok i understand when its raining, but all so his little wee paws dont get wet and cold......such a drama queen....

    Am now moving on to being annoyed with random people, relisted the books on freecycle, so someone emails, "can I collect tomorrow morning on my way into town" me "yeah thats fine what time" reply "oh it'll be before 12"............. THANKS FOR THAT! Because nothing fills me with greater joy than waiting in...... Admittedly I'm not going anywhere but still, its the principle!

    I've had a cup of coffee and there is a wispa bar staring at me..... goading me.... willing me to add it to it's friends "malteaser" and "mars bar" that are clinging to my chunder thighs.....

    Beenie - Theres a shop in the cornmill (market style shop) that had some really nice maxi dresses in, and as a fellow midget, I found two nice length ones with straps, which accentuate the good and disguise the bad :) All under £20 as well.....

    Thanks to all for the well wishes yesterday, I cant believe how quickly my mood can shift, to such extremes as well.... I think Landen is due a growth spurt, been whingy and not eating full bottles, but bit feeding for 5+ hours yesterday afternoon....we're due poo today as well (every 2 days LOL) so maybe he'll feel better after that. Hes currently asleep in his swing.

    Next cuppa hot java me thinks......
    And will someone tell that wispa bar NO!

  • Oh Krystal how exciting...fingers crossed they have only found one little pup.
    Is the Monkey Forest too far for people to travel if we were to meet at the end of September?

    It is M6 J15 - about 40 mins south of Warrington (or so LOL!)

    Oh count us in...would be lovely to take my little monkey to see more of his kind, lol.

    I could also bring another Mum & Baby from Mcr way if needed. I have 2 car seats.

    And for those not on facebook...My little man can WALK!!!! :eek:

    Busy day forus, swimming, shopping and packing for a weekend away. Must dash...
