Thanks hun

Beenie are you delirious from illness? how did we suddenly get onto the subject of secret santa?

I also thought we decided the address bit would be too much work and it was scrapped (or was that the Christmas before, I wasn't pg last Christmas:p)

I hope we don't get rained out of the monkey forest, I'm really looking forward to it!

totally off topic but had this idea presented to me last night...

since you're always sending and gtting packags off these forum people, why dont you all like a secret santa for mums and LO's....dunno how you'd organise it but it sounds like something your fluffy lot would likesurprising for DH to come out with

Landen has fallen asleep on my arm after top up feed, and ive been eating a scone over him, sultana fell off and landed on his cheek.... didnt even wake up till i moved it!

Hands up, Im to blame for the xmas jabber....
if noone fancies it, fair do's... i just thought it was a good idea....:o

Secret Santas are fun! I used to do one with a bunch of online friends, but I think I will bow out this year as it's one of the more expensive ones and cross-USA/UK so lots of postage costs! I like the fun ones where you set a £5 limit and get silly things.

If no one wants to coordinate it, there's a fab website called Elfster that does everything for you! All people have to do is register and then it matches everyone up secretly. Not sure people are okay with that level of effort or if they'd rather just PM their addresses and baby's current age/size to a central person. *shrug* Could be fun!

Ahh! I'm far too sleep deprived to notice whited out things that aren't labelled as "whited out" lol

ETA - Aless that site sounds good!

We've found H&M clothes quite generous for the size, and Next seem to be too. Sizes vary so much. Henry is in some 6-9 months still, mostly 9-12 and some 12-18 months. It's mad (but like adults clothes, I guess).

V is mostly in 18-24 months now, but I put some 18-24 next trousers on her yesterday and there was a good 6" of spare material at the hem.

Ladybird :eek: At poop in the bath, and good luck with toilet training. We've not long had a potty for her to get used to it. She mostly rides round on it saying brum brum.

Monkey Forest - 29 September

I was wondering if we need an alternative plan in case it is raining?

Monkey Forest is all outside other than the cafe so it will be a PITA if the weather is poop.

Is everybody who is coming (other than me and Krystal) coming from oop north? I can't think of anywhere other than Waterworld (and I am not sure if I want you lot seeing me in my swimmers!) so was thinking we make it the usual place by the TC if the weather is pap - and make a decision at 8.30am on that morning as to what it looks like.

Is Bekki around? Are you coming Bekki? Can you think of anywhere else?

Also - has anybody looked to see if there are any vouchers / offers on etc.

The group discount is for 20+ paying people.

I hope the weather isn't poop, I WANT to see the Monkeys.


It's my lovely OH's turn to be a KH today. It's his day off, so I planned all of my ebay stuff to end yesterday, so I can pack and post without V's help . So he's got up an !!!!!!ed off to work for an hour to sort some bits out. :mad:
eta: I've just looked out of the window, and he's also taken my bl00dy car, complete with car seat.


ETA: I love the secret santa idea.
My last two in work were a little random. The last one I was very pregnant and got bibs and a blanket - it was supposed to be a present for me, not my bump. The one before I got a red cowboy hat and some black and red striped over the knee socks?!?!?!

At least it was better than Dave's lime green mankini that he got last year 3
