    I have read back, but won't reply until tomorrow as we're off out soon for a celebratory meal.

    Very proud dad is all that needs to he said. Achieved far greater than she expected including A*s she never thought she'd get. Very proud of her indeed.

    Lily used to 'flirt' with our lampshade. She would look at it and smile and have flirty looks on her face :rotfl:
    ?

    Is it a kind of coy smile? Ayana does that to the spare quilt on top of the wardobe in our bedroom. We think that there's a nice angel watching over her... it puts us at ease as she really does freak us out a little!

    Well, I officially LOVE MSE. Dan found out on Monday morning that he's got the bank holiday off. It's a lovely, unexpected surprise and because we didn't know he would be off we haven't saved any money up to do anything. But he suggested that it woud be nice to go away for a cheap (ie very cheap - he was thinking £50 for 2 nights!) break to take Amelie's mind off starting school next week. Anyway I searched everywhere and emailed loads of people about late availability, but to no avail. Just as I had decided to give up, I thought it was worth asking on the UK holidays bit, and someone came up with a wonderful 2 nights for the price of 1 deal. So we're off to Newport for the weekend!! Not quite £50, but it's costing us £62 for the four of us to stay for two nights in the Holiday Inn Express, with free breakfasts and I can't wait. Just got to come up with some MSE things to do while we're there! We're not going to tell Amelie until we're on our way - she'll love the idea of us all sharing a hotel room...

    Thats great! were trying to book a night in chester on Fri, its my grandads funeral and we thought we would end the day with some family time together in llandudno.

    Lovely Michelle :D

    Holy fook Molly just escaped out of the front door :eek: We have a tiny landing outside and a flight of stairs up and one down. The door was closed but not locked and the storm outside blew the door open. I heard it slam closed and got up to make sure Molly was ok (favourite haunt currently the shoe rack beside the door) and she wasn't there :eek::eek: Opened the door and she was just sitting on the landing looking around.

    At least thirty years have just been shaved off my life.

    Good lord! At least shes safe and sound.

  • Michelle, CAFC - sorry if it's already been mentioned, but why not come and join in with the Baby Weight Shifting Club (- think we're getting a bit thin on the ground at the moment, wish I could say the same!)?. It's here https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/1778827

    Lol PP... We get about 3 a day round here in the summer (and 1 other one that comes year round, but his ice-cream is rank) When the chimes came earlier Caitlyn started looking around herself all bemused like...

    My 2 girls have just been playing so lovely together... Very cute listening to all the giggles!
    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.

    Quick one ladies, Ayana has been dribbling like mad this past week- its getting worse and now shes permenantly in bibs. She also tries to get both fists in her mouth- are these signs of teething? Shes pretty much 11 weeks now. DH said to stop talking rubbish and that his family laughed at me when I said it :( I was born with a few teeth so it could be possible right? She's also been staring at us whilst eating- hubby agrees shes doing this too.

    You're probably right! Thomas was like this too from about then - poor thing ended up with (and still has a bit) terrible dribble rash too until my friend in France came up with this http://www.bioderma.com/en/nc/the-products/what-s-new/product/action/249.html which is :T but can't find it in England :(, it is infinitely better than using sudocrem or bepanthen, even if it did cost about €8. If anyone does come across it anywhere (apart from on some dodgy looking website!), pm me please!
