    No, GISI and I've redeemed two. I did send them an email about it, will check my spam account tomorrow.

    If anyone's interested, Mr SS just posted an interesting breastfeeding link to my FB. And I am off to bed for quality time with my pillow. It and I have rather lost touch recently and it will be good to reconnect.

    And did he? Or is that a silly question?
    :rotfl: Not until I got really :mad: about it and actually told him. :o

    3 - are you selling a stokke to krystal ;) Only joking :D

    Absolutely not, ever! When my baby is too big for it, i'm going to be one of those crazy ladies and get a real life doll to walk about in it. :rotfl:

    Did we ever find out what Krystal is or isn't buying?

    Evening,

    Hugs all round.

    Because of the recent shenanigans at work they've called in the services of a HR Consultant, got my revised warning letter today, they'd omitted lots of important details - even says I rightly pointed it out

    Apparently she's coming in tomorrow to see me to discuss any issues I have, I hope she has a spare couple of hours.

    I've just ordered these for Katie, she doesn't take the lion outfit off at Tuesday Toddler Group, you get all four outfits.

    No cuteness from Katie today, too tired as not afternoon nap and a dancing lesson.

    There was yesterday, mum brought her to work to drop her off, and all I heard as I walked back to the office after handing over a car was "MUMMY!" and there was Katie hanging out of mums car window.

    DH does shifts so on his days off I give him a list of stuff to do whilst I'm at work, but if we're both off we do stuff as a family and fit house stuff around it. Today he has sorted the kitchen and washed most of the clothes, taken and waited for Katie at dancing, bathed her and put her to bed. I made packed lunches for Katie and me, chose her clothes for the day, went to work and made tea.

    Krystal - What are you buying?
    Proud to be dealing with my debts
    DD Katie born April 2007!
    3 years 9 months and proud of it
    dreams do come true (eventually!)

    I posted a link a while back :p

    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    Someone thought Alice was a doll this afternoon.

    ETA: But I wasn't near her at the time so they didn't think I was a crazy lady with a giant lifelike doll.

    Hi!:)

    Firstly here's some pics of Daisy who was born 12 days ago (would be rude not to share them;)) :D:D:D

    91kjv9.jpg

    Just after she was born. Sadly I didn't see her when she was born as my c section went wrong:(



    2vsq1yc.jpg

    Having cuddles with her big brother:D

    She's such a little sweetie but has discovered her voice now!!:eek::rotfl:

    Main reason I'm posting... Hip Scan Daisy needs one due to being breech so I was hoping someone could tell me what it involves?? Will it be upsetting??:o

    She is gorgeous :) congrats xxx

    EA lol your OH is very fussy lol I got OH to agree to everything on the tea list aoart from the curry so we will have to do something else for that day

    SMartie we have the asda brightstars one and E loves it, was only £15

    Som where did you get the footmuff from? cos the Graco one seems a bit too big, it will do but I would like a better fitting one?

    CAFC please dont worry, E has only just learned these last 4 days to roll properly and sometimes still gets stuc on his belly lol, and like for example on that baby milestone link it says by 4 months most babues can bear their weight on their legs if that means then standing while you hold them, well E cant do that and hes 6 months

    Did I miss anything else? ive tried to catch up but there are so many pages

    E has had a total growth spurt, his 6-9 months vests are too small :( I am pleased they arent too expensive in asda lol, he was weighed today at 27 weeks and he is 20 pound 15 ozs, just 1 oz of a stone and a half :eek:

  • When I was younger my sister had a vintage silver cross pram... I took it a walk to the shops once with my Aunt and a shop assistant started gushing and asking if she could have a look... I got a bit embarrassed that it was just my tiny tears...

  • Right, now I've settled down a bit, what I needed to ask about was the dreaded potty training. Izzy is getting really bad nappy rash at the mo, so it seems like a good time to bite the bullet and go for it. So as of Thursday (assuming I manage to buy her more pants in time) we are going to give it a try.

    Other than leaving her with no bottoms on for the day (not sure if we will brave going out on Friday - might have to give it a miss for a week, and stay in?) and encouraging her to sit on the potty/saying well done if she goes in the potty and oops, next time try and get it in the potty, what should I be doing?! Oh, and should I put her back into a nappy at nap time?
