    Something dodgy going on with the thread, MFD's post just popped up now (mid page) as I had to read it twice.

    Yeah its been a bit strange as i've been catching up too...

    Hope everyones ok?

    Sister babysat at my house last night, i put kids to bed before we went out and they were angels, didnt wake once so am v pleased and sis will prob be happy to do again as I left her some money for her n her boyf to get dominos delivered. OH was well behaved for once so he is in my good books for a change lol!!

    I have quite a bit of grey and have done for a while now, and i have a quite obvious wrinkle near my right eye, but as my grandma would have said, its a sign that you've smiled alot ;):p

    :wave:Thats me all caught up, hi everyone and hi newbies (hi lurkers)

    hugs where required and alcohol or choc 2.

    CAFC - r u still loving yr new pushchair? I'm after a lightweightish parent facing one to keep in the car quite fancy an oyster but need to see one in the flesh.

    My little one is now in her own room as of last night, sob, they grow up too fast.

    Oh god I love it so much, if I could I'd sit in it and be pushed around LOL

    if you just wanna keep one in the car, be aware that most i looked at cant be folded down with seat unit on when its parent facing. we have to take it apart, but its so easy to do i dont mind, and it actually works out better for me because i couldnt lift our old one, but i can carry the two parts of this one, meaning i can help getting it in and out of car etc....

    M - Maybe just ask him nicely why he doesnt wanna get one? Or suggest a travel one? Perhaps you could argue that the difference in sleeping situations (I.E cot bed and then co-sharing) might start confusing A as she grows and becomes more aware.....whereas keeping this much the same may help with routines etc....

    I promise you all when I get some photos taken when we're down south i'll post them up with hair colour/cut, just took a couple really quickly but i look so piggin awful im actually embarassed about myself :o i know that makes me really shallow but i feel like ive made an effort with one part of me i now need to make an effort with the rest of me... i.e my bloomin' face....:eek:

    Alice's only dolls are cuddly toy type dolls but she treats all her cuddly toys as her babies and will carry them in the sling, push them in the pram (which is actually a push along baby walker), feed them etc. I think she was two before she really got into them though.

    I hate dolls which is why she doesn't have any regular dolls.

    CAFC: He's just being weird and clearly thinks it's ok for her to sleep with me. But its not ok when she keeps waking up and wanting to latch on just because she can smell me. Ive mentioned all of the above, he's just being dismissive about it all. Im guessing he must be enjoying the double bed with no baby waking him up! :eek::)

    I know the feeling about the hair and makeup thing, I tanned up, did my hair (what's left of it) and eyebrows dyed/plucked- feel tonnes better and look "gorgeous" apparently! :)

    Thread is doing my head in as things keep popping up and its confusing me!

    I think they're all creepy except for ones made of cloth. I hated them as a child too. My mum says my brothers played with the dolls pram more than I did.

    I presume people are deleting posts which then means all subsequent posts move up and some change pages so if a post moves back a page at the wrong time then you miss it.
