    I will do :) I was interested to see what it's like, I wanted to go to Gymboree but there's no spaces locally. What do you do at the moment?

    EA - are you more paranoid this PG than last?

    Its unlikely something will happen, but it will be nice to hear whats going on in there :D

    Gymfiend, does your Gymboree have a waiting list? Ours moves really fast because kids graduate into the next class up all the time.

    Not that I'm aware of, when I got in touch with them they simply said there's no room, no offer of a wait list or to start in January :/ There's only 2 classes vaguely local to me sadly. I've actually found most classes really booked up, totally failed to get into a swim class too.

    SS, the Monkey Business one looked good :D I'll be driving so wherever is good for me.

    I was shocked that the BMI chart said that he was overweight since for years they were trying to get him to see a dietiticion due to him being medically underweight! I hate BMI anyway, more so now. How utterly stupid!

    Kids all bathed and in bed. Had a nice dinner of roast gammon, tatties and broccoli. yummy. Amber is eating like mad! And walking about all happy but she has a wee temper and has been a bit demanding today. For a start she screaches if she doesn't get her own way and will not let me out of her sight. So I am in for a few weeks of being tough.

    I need to go to asda or tesco. I also need to buy a pretty party dress, I promised Amber a pretty party dress and a party if she got better :D
  • Good evening everyone :)

    Hope everyones had a good weekend?

    Liverpool was good on friday, but i was soo tired yesterday i fell asleep while i was watching xfactor oops!

    Gill when i was at the puree stage i made a chicken casserole in the slow cooker, had a bowl myself and blended the rest, jasmine loved it and it made tons of portions, i never bothered with the cube trays ,i used freezer bags, spooned a dollop in and sealed lol, and put them all in a tupperware tub and just pulled a bag out as and when i needed it :)

    Maybe call them back and ask about a waiting list? I had to ask about ours. Sometimes they have the muppet answering the phones because all the good ones are talking to the parents ;)

    Let's say Monkey Business then :) 11am sound good? Miss Monster normally naps around that time but should be up if we're an hour ahead, I'm not going to mess with her sleeping patterns for the sake of a week and she can always snooze through the hellos and make a dramatic late entrance.

    How long does it take you/Caz to drive to Edinburgh? And what time does Susan's train get in?

    Also, what size is Amber in now, and can we help shop for her pretty dress?
