MV - like sir monster said I'd assumed I would stop at 6 months. DS is not a good feeder and it has never been 'easy' though now i think it is easier than bottles. I'd also recommend blw, working really well for us i think. it's also cheaper to keep bf as you can then go straight to cows milk at a year.

pigpen - we were thinking of moving the room round anyway to move the cot away from the neighbours wall so will see if that helps.
re your kids i'm not sure as only you know them. would one of your sisters pop round a couple of times to check on them? could you also take tiddles or something?

ds has hardly eaten any lunch and is rubbing anything he can on his gums, hopefully this tooth will cut soon as there was an improvement after the last one cut. does it hurt them as the tooth is moving up into the mouth after it has cut too? i have given him some calpol and put him down for a nap, when i stuck my head around the door he was looking at his mobile. poor thing looks so exhausted.

i made some cheese straws for ds today, similar recipe to the one pigpen posted, he had a nibble but he's a bit off his food so not much. I will take some out when i meet sir monster later and the boys might enjoy them then if they're awake!

My mother said she would pop and check they were in bed properly about 8pm and pop again Sunday morning. There isn't anywhere to put any of the others if I took them.

Squeak is bawling her lungs out.. she had food and boob and messed about so has been sent to bed without.. I am starving and both she and OH have eaten So she can stay there and cry while I eat.. she'll drop off eventually I guess..

Squeak had honey nut cheerios nicked from OH and 2 weetabix for breakfast.. I am sure she eats more than she should.. even if it isn't as much as DD2 ate!

i'm sure they will be fine pigpen but don't sue me if they're not lol.

we appear to be fast asleep on our back in the cot so I will go and get on with some self employed work while i can...i must've been very wicked in a previous life!

pigpen

Mines gone over too.. now to persuade OH to make me a cuppa..

I just had a bowl of coco pops, they were lovely

My Squeak is still asleep (since just gone 11) so I think I'll have to make her some lunch and wake her soon.

DD1's youth whatsit lady has just been, she's ok but her manager said she had to put on the paperwork for me to do sessions to 'come to terms with the domestic violence' with their Dad?! I left six years ago! I've had more than enough time to 'come to terms with it', it was so long ago now it feels like it happened to someone else :mad:

Oh and twin1 is on a trip today and doesn't get back till 4, and twin2 is on the same trip tomorrow, grrr. we don't usually get home till 3.45 so we'll have to walk up to the shops and back.

ah pigpen I'm sure they'd be fine but then I tend to not worry about anything and least of all until its happened - lifes to short.

Just back from asda and have bought several tins of SMA follow on milk huge tins, reduced to £4 in the baby event absolute bargain. Some other bits were reduced as well some of the foods and spoons etc.

Bob did really well in his pushchair down to there as well, he normally kicks up a stink after 5 mns in the pushchair but its a good 20 min walk and he was fine. I've sat him up a bit more now so I think he could see more and the sun was in his eyes less so hopefully that has sorted it.

I tend to put a blanket over squeak (in much the same way as you cover bird cages) and it'll keep the sun out of her face and often send her to sleep as well.

I'm not a worrier either.. I just don't know what to do for the best.. this way at least I was hoping to keep the outlaws off my back, they'll have seen Squeak briefly which means I'll get a reprieve from the full weekend for a couple more weeks..

DS1 said he will come stay with GF so there will be DS1 and gf (19) and DD1.. so 3 of them supposedly 'grown ups' (almost!) is 2 chimps per gorilla so that isn't too crazy is it?

Hhhhhhhhmmmmmmmm.......

I'll thinky some more.. said I'd let him know for def. tomorrow anyhoo.

MERFE

delain I have thought about that but I'm sure he would kick up a stink about not seeing whats going on.

pigpen you said yourself you know they'll be ok and you'll be missing out if you don't go so do it, that's what I think anyway.

MV love the pic he is gorgeous as ever x

CL

Meant to say MV, he really is a beautiful baby.
