MSE Parents Club Part 13

Glamazon

Had a good clear out of the garage, we now have a keep pile, sell pile and tip pile.

OH really needs to get his head around the fact that we are downsizing and therefore must get rid of his hoard of crap. I swear only about 10% of the crap in this house is mine.

Been offered £40 for the Jumperoo but she wants me to meet her halfway cos she's a bit far from me - so considering that one. Also, had an offer on my big changing unit but I can't find a tape measure and she wants the sizes

J has been a right whinge bag all day and must have got suncream in his eye cos it's been all red and sore. Poor baby

I have caught up but not taken anything in Sorry

Work tomorrow - boooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Doh totally missed that you were selling your jumperoo....I'd have given you £40 and picked it up Ah well hop n pop puchased off ebay now....and I won't be in trouble off DH for buying something too big lol

ETA they're going for over £50 on ebay (jumperoos)

ETA2 - are you still coming to Monkey Forest or has RL got a bit too hectic for you now?

I put the cross trainer away today cos i wanted to see how successful the travel cot would be downstairs for naps, as it happens it's very successfu, she had a proper 2hr-ish nap :eek: And now she's getting mobile it's handy to pop her in it if i need to leave the room...

But now i'm sad because i really need to lose weight and it's much easier to do it here.... but have got no room to put it so dunno what to do I am definitely going to start dieting, i look a mess and i hate it. I have 3 stone to lose... :eek:

Well done for the decluttering Glam.

I love the internet, turned the oven on for DH, didn't work, display just said safe, got the model number quick google to discover I'd somehow managed to put it in child safety mode - didn't even know it had one

got-it-spend-it

Very quick hello here as I'm off to work.

I can count on one hand the number of times H has slept through past six, but this morning when I have to be out of the house for half six he is still asleep!

GISI, isn't that always the case? Must be the weather - Finn slept until 6:30! (he's usually awake by 6)

Moving today, Aless? Or tomorrow? Sorry we never went to Tooting Common!

Not as often as I should my parents tend to come to us, I come down to see my brother and his family every couple of months but it is usually a flying visit.



Keely - did you know that the Bilston Baths do normal Mum and Toddler swimming sessions in the little pool? They do about 3 sessions a week (all when I am at work though ). I was looking at their website earlier and was thinking that you had gone back on the Surestart waiting list - although I guess the normal sessions will be more expensive than the SS ones.

I found Bilston Surestart centre a very strange place (I used to tart around quite a few local ones!) Wednesfield and Bushbury were much more welcoming.

No, I didn't know about that. I'll have a look for that, might be able to get a friend to come along too as it's local.

Did you go to the centre next to the markets? I didn't like it in there! I'm hoping to try the groups at the other one (other side of bilston up towards macdonalds)-i had my anti natal classes there and it seemed ok but it's the people who go that matters

Because I don't drive, I try to stay close to home or at most one quick bus journey (but money's tight sometimes!). Thanks for the info

Oooh good and bad start to the morning, bad cos T has already nipped me twice but my first La Redoute order is already here, 2 pairs of leggings, 3 vests and 2 dresses for next summer and a real bargain only 20p hehe. No coffee either, tho I only have one a day in the morning to give me a kick start.

question... Do LO's generally learn to crawl and sit up around the same time? I can see T trying really hard to do both and getting so fustrated. Last night when she went to sleep she was trying to crawl round the bed and couldnt get comfy am sure she was asleep too as her eyes were closed all the time. Im sure this is why she is waking so often once she has had her initial 3 hours sleep, cos she is practising. Every time she wakes me up she has wedged her self at either the side or ends of her cot.

Glam - sounds like a good de clutter session.

Aless - have fun packing! I personally dred that part of moving, that and un packing.

Just a quick question!

I was just wondering how old your lo's were when they went into a proper bed or toddler bed?

I think Elliot is almost ready now, but I'm going to put a safety gate on his bedroom door when he does as I'm worried he'll wonder off and end up getting into mischief! He's in a cot bed, so I'll just have to take the sides off for now.

He's almost 2 btw
