MSE Parents Club Part 15

tarajayne

What's the SO board? And all mine get amounts according to their age, so teenagers get the most. All of them during those years will have the same. A one year old (in my opinion) does not need £80 spent on them, neither a 7yr old. I want them at 7 to see that £50 is a huge amount of money. Also after 18 the amount gets less again. I suppose this comes from having quite a few so it works for us, but not others. X

i happened to be looking on ebay at the old style polly pockets she loved them

Aimee has these, she loves making little towns with them!! My Mum found her playsets on a skip though, I just had to get the people to add to them...

I do agree with this; at some stage I WILL have to get it chopped but I'd rather enjoy those golden locks for a bit longer! He's great at having it brushed and washed etc (and says he wants long hair like me and his sister!), doesn't suck it, it's just a new development. We'll have to see!

And what is with the boys- pants- hands in thing?!

I'd leave him to get it all nicely tangled so it hurt I am evil mother!

Also, boys have to keep checking that their squiggly bits are still where they left them.

We went out!

I saw Caz mention a new house? But I'll have a better chance of getting a reply on facebook if non parenting posts are being deleted.

Unless ofcourse you need advice on how to decorate childrens bedrooms MSE style?

And as for toilet training, DS2 was in and out of pull up's for a couple of years. He still accidents. Does C know the toilet makaton sign? Does he use it? I;d probably leave him too it and take a change of clothing.... If I happen to bump into you on Tuesday we could talk about it then.

Grr why is there such little choice of jumpers for girls! Ive given in and just got a lovely next hooded fleece of ebay, tbh its probably nicer and cheaper anyhoo so I shouldn't moan really.

I see there's been some threads merged it threw me for a minute there! I used to twiddle my hair too, sometimes still do if Im tired, but not often.

to be fair there is alot more of you and in all i only get for 8 people including us 4 so its not too much in that sense .. when i was growing up xmas was the only time enough was made with my mother and she spent the exact amount on all of us .. not alot but the exact same (saw her writing book once) .. when we got 18 plus she didnt bother as much but by then i had zoe so she made a fuss over her x

It is a bit confusing, someone asking about toddlers hair and the next post replying about how to cut a mango! :rotfl:

That made me giggle to myself!:rotfl:

What I don't get is those random hair twirling and clock changing threads were mixed in here... but yet all those hundreds of "I'm having a baby what do I need" type threads that appear every day aren't added to the PG thread *confused smiley*

Thanks for the advice on Daisy's cold:) She's been a little cutie today even with the snotty nose!!:A:D

Hi Tigs, glad to see we are not tooooo cliquey yes - thread-merging, and actually I thought merging 'how to stop a toddler doing something' thread in with us was pretty reasonable! Confusing to be ambushed by, but in principle makes sense. Just happening now due to increased interest in how thrilling we are, I assume.

The boy thing is rearranging! As far as I know

Caz has not got a new house but she thinks she has seen one she likes? She will tell us I am sure. Hard to get more MSE than buying houses... or have I got that backwards

Just ate a very excellent roast - I like doing pork belly, it is cheap and yet if you do it all proper it tastes like quality

How is Mrs Bruno? X
