    I'm a bit bored today. V is having a nap, everywhere is tidy and I don't even have any ironing to do.

    We never bothered with a high chair. I fed Charlotte in her bouncy chair at first as she was weaned before she could sit unsupported.

    Once she could sit up herself, I just used a booster seat that fastened into a dining chair and she sat at the table with us. She used that until she was about 2, and then has just used a normal dining chair since then.

    This is her on her first pancake day at 10 months. Note the infamous stripey babygro :D

    She didn't want to go to school this afternoon and said she wanted to stay at home and look after me. I said she had to go and I'd be fine on my own. She said "well make sure you put your cardy on and stay warm" :rotfl:

    I never run out of things to do either. I was going to take it easy this morning, but I ended up putting the Tesco shopping away when it was delivered, did some ironing, sorted some paperwork out, cleaned the bathroom and played with Charlotte.
    Here I go again on my own....

    I always have plenty to do... And rarely do much...

    Got a huuuuuuuuuge pile of ironing here if you want it though 3?

    Just been to my final cooking around the world thing... We did cornish pasties and they're lovely... Still got a block of pastry and a pot of filling in the kitchen, I'm thinking of making up a pile of mini ones and freezing them for little miss miserable...

    She was in the creche this morning and a creche worker let her fall asleep on her 10mins before she knew I was going to fetch her... Of course she woke up as soon as I moved her and now she won't have a nap... She cried for about 45mins when we got in... It's going to be a fun afternoon...
    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.

    That babygrows are infamous :rotfl: Look how cute and squashy Charlotte looks. I remember Keira was all cute and fat as a baby, had rolls on her rolls :rotfl:

    Once she started moving the fat melted off, shame that as fat babies are dead cute! I just love chubby cheeks on kids :D

    Oh lol look what I just found

    I don't think Chris's nursery has half term with it not being attached to a school but Mum doesn't break up for a week at least
