She had one of those already Tia - her legs look almost like real person legs! :eek: But some of her 9-12 sleepsuits are starting to be a bit skin tight while others are still comedically baggy and loose. I wish sizes were properly standardised.

They keep on having them SS! in August we spent a small fortune on clothes for DSS and he has shot up and his trousers are short already :mad::mad:

I need to sort Benjamin out with some 18-24 month trousers - he has plenty of pairs of shorts but he can't really wear them now

evening!!

i love my dh!! was walking back after meeting him and Kian after work and as i got near homei noticed my bracelet was missing. so he's walked all the way back and found it!! i only got it yesterday too!! lol!! bracelets and jillie do not go well together.

choppy- sounds like you had an amazing time! i have copied your post and saved it to 'learn it' for work. what cruise line was it? such a positive experience to have on a cruise with a toddler and a big massive YAY for walking

i went to buy some sleepsuits for Kian as he has been just in a vest all summer and the asda only had pastel colours which werent very nice. so i got him some pj's. he looks very grown up.

and and..... we are down to a morning and evening bottle!! and a little 3oz at 4am (hopefully this will go soon)
he's having a good bit of water and eating more than we have ever seen!! we went cold turkey but i didnt say on here and it worked!!

Kian has the smart trike and he loves it. cos it will do till he's 3-4 (depends on his height) its a really good deal. Kian has this one http://www.mothercare.com/Smart-Trike-Plus/dp/B001OA0LHM/sr=1-2/qid=1284318828/ref=sr_1_2/277-3228566-5096107?_encoding=UTF8&m=A2LBKNDJ2KZUGQ&n=42764041&mcb=core

Hi 3! Is V in bed? Have you cracked it? x

No experience of that problem here Em, but what Tia said - I have heard similar stories from other people, I think there's a condition which can occasionally require very minor snipping surgery to alleviate... not necessarily full circumcision. But very much get it checked out if it's not getting better by itself! Unnerving.

Garden chairs - embarrassed myself slightly at E's birthday barbecue by sitting down heavily 'from a height' into a plastic chair and cracking a slat - so switching to another and doing the same.... I am quite big and heavy but not unusually so, honest!

Have we !!!!!!

I'm upstairs lurking on my phone, waiting for her to stop poking me in the eyes and go to sleep!

CAFC - We struggled to use T;s doorbouncer coz we could only use it if we were both in. We've got a hop n pop for Thomas but if you have the space a jumperoo would be better.

Those of you with 2 kids (or more) of the same flavour - any suggestions for a good new baby gift?

One of my mummy friends had a second baby girl last week (her eldest was 2 in July) and I don't really want to buy clothes/books/toys because they have everything from the first babba.

I am completely bereft of ideas....

Also - do you think that it would be a good idea to buy the 2yo a little something for when we visit?

Big hugs to poorly mummies and babies. Stinkersaurus is finally in bed and I am productively looking at fleecey sleepsuits (for Fartacus Maximus) and waterproof coats (for me) on ebay.

Do you think it's worth getting a couple of 9-12 month fleece sleepsuits? The Next ones all seem to run too big for her and I don't want her getting chilly cause she's too small for the 12-18 month ones, but there again she's already 13.5 months and I don't know how long she'll need them for.

suppose it depend on how she's been previously, Ed is 15mths and still got a couple of months growing room at least (prob more like 4mths in next ones )
