    i find with Kian, he has maybe 2 really bad days and nights followed by 3 mornings of the most hummongous, disgusting snotty nose when he first wakes up. a walrus' tusks have nothing o what kian looks like after a morning sneeze when he has a cold.

  • Som, I have a bath seat similar to the one Mel linked to, but I found Caitlyn wanted to move a lot more in the bath so I just got a full length mat and she shuffled around... It was easy enough once she could sit up on her own, and it's not like you sit them in the bath seats and leave them to it...

    after heart failure last night as i went to put my new lappy on charge and nothing happened .. zip .. nada ... so cue me panicing trying all chargers (its the same make as my old netbook and philips lappy) .. still nothing ..... so goes back to work half expecting to refund then go to currys ends up the charger had just decided to stop working and the other chargers werent the right voltage so all good to go ....... but the trip to town was a nightmare jayden fussing, zoe getting under our feet or bugging .. people constantly cutting us off and the a charity dude starting getting rude and chasing us half way down the street when we said no thank you so we were there and back within the hour .........

    now philip wants takeaway (was going to have kfc but left town before we got chance) hes got zoe behind him (of course *rolleyes*) but im unsure about spending the money .... and i know i just got a lappy but its my xmas present .. oh hum ...

    I've always found popping a pillow under the cot sheet helps when they have a cold. Raises them slightly and if you have a cold, you know how that does help you sleep. Crack a window open too and get them out for a walk in the fresh air. If you heating on, get a wet towel over the radiator to moisten the air. And paracetamol, cos you know, your head hurts.

    Poor babies, I have a head cold right now and feel like crap, so no wonder the tiny ones are grouchy.

    It's DS1 party tomorrow, 20 kids at the local soft/adventure play, they do everything woohoo! DH collected his cake and I have party bags to make up later.

    Ive done lots of ironing today, pizza dough is in the bread maker, potato wedges are chopped and we'll have it with garlic bread later.
