    PP sorry about the mc but glad you are sounding strong xx

    SJ, MM was very good :D But we were late :mad: so got naff seats at the back. MM did a lot more than i was expecting, and he was very funny. Salesshopper where were you sat?? The seating allocations were so random, because people behind us in the queue were seated wayyyy in front, and vice versa, so it may not have made a difference that we were late.

    Sooooooooo i was washing up earlier, and DS comes in and rambles on and i do my robotic-not-listening-stock-answer "yeah, of course you can".

    I go in the front room a few mins later and find that my baby has eaten a Kit Kat :eek::eek::eek: I didn't know whether to laugh or be mad with him cos he knows she's not allowed anything like that lol!! She liked it far too much.

    Anyway this was the result... :eek::eek: :o
    :rotfl::rotfl: loving the choccy baby!
    Maybe the peeps that got seated waaayyy forward had priority seats or they were zlist celebs you didn't recognise? ;)

    Morning all :D I have one very active baby today and her wrigglyness doesn't want to go back to sleep, still 6am start isn't too bad. Have made the most of it though and currently have a butternut squash roasting in the oven :D I've never had one before I got it for T, but it smells mucho nommy I think I will have to try some. Haven't read back the last few days yet but did a quick search on my name so sorry if I missed anything.
    ...

    Sami - Ooh very generous would love some extra Mam bottles as only have the one atm :D
    ...
    PP - hugs hun, take care of yourself x

    Off to have my haircut today (its been 6 months!!), am tempted to have my fringe cut back in again, but think it may be a bad idea with lil miss grabby loving my dangly hair and I wear my fringe quite long. Oh well long and straight it is again as I havent got the time or money for highlights.
    you should totally pop a bit of cinnamon/nutmeg/mixed spice on your nutterbut squash tis lush ;) goes well with sweet potato too:D
    pop me a PM and I'll send my fairies on their merry way.
    enjoy your hair cut, I need mine doing, I fancy a big change but I'm scared and lazy at styling :o I'd love to look like Frankie from The Saturdays but I think it would take more than a trip to the hair dressers! :rotfl:

    Morning,
    Thanks for that Link sami, i found it last night anyway after a quick google search :D

    Beenie, Amber looks so funny and so cute :D

    Lilys poo was just black, that is normal when teething right?
    was it actually black or very dark greeny? black black would scare me but dark green is often the result of a tummy upset or a bowl of blueberries ;)

    I really want a princess castle bed, do you think I could fit all 4 of us in coz I'd have to sell our house to pay probably :p

    Big hugs for PP, sorry I didn't see your post last night, I didn't bother refreshing the page after a while :o

    MFD isn't there a place in the comps board fo "vote for me" threads/links?

    :rotfl: Krystal, my alternate FB doesn't have an unassuming name. May I present Banany Hammocks :D

    (I liked a couple of the ones who had only 2 or 3 votes so it wasn't obvious ...)

    Loving the modesty sponge EA - I have one picture of Molly where you can see her butt. But I keep them filtered.

    Hopefully we can put this Mexican baby back into third place where it belongs :rotfl:

    But I'm only halfway through what I wanted to get done and I need to leave in 20 minutes for the meeting. Must get back to work.

  • Oh Sami whilst you are about. Thank you for the advice re: goats milk that you gave me many moons ago (I did say I would store it until needed ;) ) I'm going to switch Liam to see if it will help to settle his eczema. He has been pretty bad since his birthday, so about the same time I switch from formula to moo milk.

    I asked Mum to look out for it today if she was going out, her response: That's what you used to have...why does she not tell me these things??!! :wall:

    Coz I'm soo important I've done a seperate post just for ME :p
    or I just didn't want to win a prize for longest post ever ;)

    Yesterday was quite eventful, we went to build a bear in the morning so mum could ruin Christopher buy Christo-bear some PJs, She also got him a carrier *rolleyes* but MDW if you think it would fit Katie's dolly/toys they are £5 so not too bad. I saw they are doing a sanrio thing soon I think I NEED a chococat I love him :o
    Then I realised just how badly I needed sleep when the boys fell asleep on the way to costco so instead of waking them to go in I had a nap too :p in the carpark of costco! Thankfully Ed has been sleeping in his own bed and hasn't woken up at 4am for the last two nights/mornings, unfortunately he has oral thrush :( he's got the nystan drops and seems to like them which is good and bad as they work best when kept in the mouth a bit but Ed swallows them down quick but at least he's not spitting them all over me like he does with the super sticky lactulose! I am now very worried I'm going to get it on my nips and be in horrible pain tho :eek: what did peeps get when they had it? was it normal canestan cream and did you have to wash it off before feeding? (and if so how do you wash it off? would a baby wipe do it ? :s)

    Also there is talk of hubby being promoted at work, I'm not getting too excited yet as it is reliant on his bosses actually getting rid of the dead wood coke addict golden boy who they just keep on despite him being the worst employee EVER!! (for like 5yrs!!) but it is just what hubby wants to do as it means less time getting filthy dirty and more time wandering around with a clipboard bossing others about :D

    Sami, the Dr should have given you micanizole cream for your nips at the same time as treating Ed... It's comon practise to treat mother and baby if bf... Info here: http://www.breastfeedingnetwork.org.uk/pdfs/BfN_Thrush_leaflet_Feb_2009.pdf
    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.

    You are most welcome :D
    :rotfl:at your mum though! I had a big long conversation with mum in the car yesterday and learnt a load of stuff I had no idea about her, funny how you can see someone a squllion times a week but know so little about parts of their life!
    so anyway... Tesco own brand is the cheapest goaty milk usually but they only have it at my 'big' tesco not the smaller local one but St Helen's Farm was on offer last time I bought it which made it cheaper. Sainsbury and tesco also stock st helen's farm goats yogurt which I use for the boys too, I just pop some puree fruit or if I'm lazy a lil bit of nesquick/crusha to add flavour :cool:

    Thank you :D
    I didn't think had any symptoms as yet but I noticed that leaflet mentions loss of colour and my nips are a little pale, just so you all know :p

    oh and PS. has anyone ever heard of/used https://www.cqout.com ? it looks a bit like ebay shops/amazon market place there is a shop on it that is the only place I can find some books I want for Ed at a decent price.

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    Sami i had priority tickets, but the seats are allocated randomly cos there was people with standby who had better seats than people with priority tickets (who weren't late) from what i could gather by earwigging. :p
