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.

Lily is like this to, she keeps lifting her bum up and pushing her legs underneath. Then she falls :rotfl:

I find watching her move around is like watching a clock, when you watch it for movement is never seems to happen, but when you look away and look back its in a different place!

This morning her face was pushed against the cot bars :rollseyes:

SS, i told my mum that i wasn't spending xmas with her last yr and she got really !!!!!!! :eek: (but then again she does think that DH is stealing me away from her and that i dont consider them as my family anymore)
I agree with MFD & Bruno, tell them that Molly will really understand this year so you want to spend it as a family.

Is anyone near Nottingham? Offer on a family day out to White Post Farm.

Was having a text chat this morning with hubby, asking him if he had a good time yesterday and laughing asking if he missed his lovely wifey...he replied that he missed his wifey and child so now I am in a grump with him - I can't express why but does anybody understand? Am I being stupid?

He called me beautiful actually! Nah it is him bringing the baby into the conversation like that makes me react all 'meh'

I totally get that and feel like this too. hubby is really bad at replying to a question/statement along those lines with LO first - sometimes he does it to wind me up - othertimes its just because he did miss both of us. But it does bother me sometimes too.

Having a bad start to the morning. I'm in a bad mood though not entirely sure why.

I did feel at all rested after my night away - I left in a hurry with a screaming baby and a husband making me feel really guilty to come home less than 24hrs later to a a house full on in-laws chaos and a child who couldn't wait to see me as well as a huge handful of guilt that I might have been trying to put myself before LO and husband.

24hours wasn't possibly long enough and has just made me feel more tired, snappy and in need of some time to myself. I feel like crying but not really sure why. Sorry guys

My La redoute order arrived... I fluffed up the size on the velour sleepsuits and I'm really annoyed with myself now...

Evansangel

What was the La Redoute offer?

r.mac_2

aw krystal - too big or too small? could you return them or swap them or ebay them or recycle gift them?

My_Fathers_Daughter

((HUGS)) MacSmiler - I am sure that both our husbands are thinking that if they don't say anything about the children then they would not be appreciating that we are at home with them.

Sounds like you could do with a break hun, not long until your holiday now xx

r.mac_2

yes - I am looking forward to it and I know I'm lucky - I just feel that I also work really hard and its not always recognised because it hasn't got a salary attached to it, and people take avantage of that.

i do feel better for my hug though thanks!

You get a wonderful little person rather than a wage packet though

Ha ha - as 'main breadwinner' and 'main caregiver' (well if you don't count CM ) I feel like I am holding up the roof for my little lot!

Still, these things are sent to try us - we are women and we are strong enough to cope, as long as we are not too proud to ask for a little help here and there.

They're too small... Newborn size... I might give them a ring and see if they'll exchange them for the right size... Otherwise I'll try all of the above lol...

Sorry you feel a bit pants about your time away... OH could have made it a lot easier for you but they don't get that... I hope your holiday is nice and relaxing
