    Hellooooooo

    I go missing for a week and a new thread appears :)

    Sorry for disappearing again, I couldn't get on the internet as my phone line gave up the ghost. Lots of calls to Sky resulting in an engineer visit this morning, swapped our number onto the line left by my parents when they moved out.

    As it's been over a week I'm not even going to try and catch up, so hugs and hellos all round.

    Katie has her settling in session at playgroup next week.

    EA - I ate the goji berries out of my graze box last night and then spent the early house hugging the toilet, it's the first time I've reacted to anything they've sent.

    Katie has been very sweet, my parents are looking after her for me, they came round to check on me at lunchtime and Katie had insisted on picking some flowers out their garden to cheer mummy up!

    I need ideas she finishes with her CM in a couple of weeks what can I get as a thank you gift?

    Fingers crossed EA. X

    (((Hugs))) Tia, XXX, wish there was something helpful I could say, and volunteer groups who offer help around, Homestart? And question on the house insurance, did you have to add the phones or were they automatically covered in the policy?

    I sooo will ask her as I am a nosey cow and want to know! She has a brother too, but he's older.

    I am 95% sure that Holly's first word (other than mama, dada) was Elmo!
    How cool is that ha ha? She loves her talking Elmo (I only gave it to her to play with last week when he appeared on Milkshake) and she talks to it with this funny high voice and wide mouth that is only reserved for him. MIL and SIL were there when she said it and they just looked at each other and we all thought it sounded like it but couldn't be, but she has repeatedly said something like it since when playing with him!

    We'll all be waiting to hear the result in the morning , EA!

    Fitz- no helpful advice but I just wanted to offer a hug. Can I be nosey and ask who's having Holly the other days when you're at work?

    I got these nappies for £2 in Boots. They only had one pack left, and when I went into the other Boots in town none of the nappies were reduced. Also no toiletries or baby food reduced in either.
    :DYummy mummy, runner, baker and procrastinator :p

    Savoury roasted seeds.
    Funky Gibbon.
    Himalayas and Beyond.
    Paper Tiger.


    Just booked my shopping to come tomorrow, hopefully it comes to a similar time as the gas man. Then my day is free :D

    That is ridiculously cute!!!

    Caitlyn shows no real affection for anything... She only cuddles when tired or upset and doesn't kiss at all... Ever... She smacks Aimee on the head in the same way she smacks the cats belly when he's lying down so I'll take that as a loving sign...
    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.

    EA - It was the himalayas and beyond thing that I ate. I'll be crossing gogi berries off my list.

    Tara - how was your holiday? Congraulations if I missed your big day, how did it go.

    Katie is influenced my Nina and the Neurons on CBeebies - ask for a baby bud and she lunges at you and licks your face.

    Permission to crawl into the white padded room and rock back and forth slowly? Chris is being a nightmare recently, wallpaper tearing (the one bloody room that didn't need decorating as well!), peeing everywhere (spent an hour cleaning the sofa this morning and he just went, stood up and pee'd on it!), he poo'd in his bed! As in, sat on his bed, poo'd and came back down stairs without saying a word. Broke Ambers cot mobile. Smeared some poo (from his bed) on the stair carpet. Took a cup outside and smashed it. Put water and soap/shampoo etc all over the bathroom floor and toilet seat... and thats just today.

    I could cry right now. Or throttle him. Or throttle him while crying. Trying to remain calm because if I lose my temper, I will say something I'll regret.

    I told mine this morning I would not be collecting them from school and they could go to a childrens home and find new parents who might like their nasty behaviour..

    Thanks MDW, was lovely and lovely, and seems like it happened to someone else. Strange as it was less than a week ago but it soon goes!
