Evening,

Grr, my power cable to my laptop is falling apart and the battery hasn't held a charge for aaaaages, so can't move it I don't want to switch off.

Hugs to everyone.

Had a very busy day, Church this morning Rector squeezed in Communion and a baptism service in today! Then went and raided Matalan, Next and Peacocks for Katie - 2 pairs of jeans and 2 pairs of leggings to go back as they are too small, the jeans are hipsters, Katie just doesn't look comfy in them.

Thanks for the car seat recommendations Som and Sami, I like the look of the Maxi Cosi, I'll wait for the sales

Evening all.. Back from the north west travels

Hope everyone is well. Fab to hear Amber is home! :j

Lovely to see everyone at the meet on Friday We went to Ikea afterwards and for tea at the pub with the big puds (which we took home for supper), then to Blackpool to see the lights on Saturday and out for Sunday lunch with my oldest friend (known each other since we were 3 and 6 months old) and her hubby today.

Good job I took OH with me.. I've barely done anything for Rhys all weekend! Except of course answer him when he calls me "Mum / Mumma / Mamma" He either says it to me or looks around for me :T It's so cute - he actually looks more grown up when he says it as it's a proper word that he's putting effort into saying (not just a noise) :A

Back to work tomorrow.. Nothing to do for that (left work clothes out ready when I was packing on Thurs! ) but need to pack and repack for Wed night in Notts. Fun never stops! :cool:

Reminder about this https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/2819108 will be interesting to see what's included at midnight. Someone did say small tv's.

Somnium

gym - eek at Guy being a stair climbing baby! that must have ben a scary moment. Yeay for freebie pushchairs

Gill - well spotted about EAs response, I have a stinky headache and cold atm and its obviously affecting my concentration or something

I have a baby girl who doesnt want to sleep before about 9.30, it started last Tuesday and I havent been able to get her to settle earlier despite trying different stuff. She still wakes at the usual time, well apart from yesterday morning! Its a bit of a drain tbh cos she is a real grotbag for the last hour or so, and means am not getting any me time at the end of the day Am hoping its just a phase that passes quickly and not one that lasts a few weeks!

I'm just off to asda

I do need to find the best/cheapest deal on an xbox 360 with 2 controllers and kiddy games. (may get it for the boys, still debating) And a DSi. (money in the bank for christmas presents). And ideas for my husband...

I've just bought ds an xbox for xmas, I got his the 4gb one from Argos for £149 with fifa 11 and another game, and got the free £20 voucher - one of which I used towards a controller. HMV and Game seemed to have similar deals on when I was looking.
They had the original wireless controller on offer for £23 :money: - some games shops were selling it nearer £40

LOL Its half brave-ness, half cost and half scared poop like of taking L on the train by my jack.....

The train is easy to do with a baby... Specially if you get the disabled carriage, you don't even have to take them out of the pushchair if you don't need to
