    AH was your DS big when he was born?

    CL I do love the dress and a shrug is also a great way of adding something to it.

    Hi again everyone! Just wanted to share my great news with you all, I'm going to be a Grandmother!!! This news comes on such a sad day for us as it was 2 years ago that my darling Hubby passed away. I was dreading today but God is sending me a Grandbaby to give me something to look forward to. I just wish Hubby was here to help me spoil it!

    yeh we did that last time when she won toni & guy vouchers

    Well done MT's DD, get her to keep entering comps, and if she wins things she doesn't want sell them on ebay and let her have the money so she can buy herself something nice she does like.:T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T

    PM DS1 7lb 11, DS2 6lb 14 & DS3 8lb 6 put the last down to the chinese lunches kept having with a friend:D:rotfl:

    Don't have records of length suppose didn't seem important as long as healthy. First 2 were B/Feed and both within the first year referred and offered growth hormones by consultant which thankfully refused after what came out in later years about children getting something similar to mad cows disease (CJD could have got initials wrong)that had been given growth hormone:eek:. Now they no different in height size to their peer group we all look younger for our age (not a bad thing:D;)). There's a funny story about DS2 when he first started school he had to be lifted on & off the coach as steps were too big for him to climb bless and got pictures of him at his year 6 leaving party being carried by the girls they would make a right fuss of him:D:rotfl:He will killl me for divulging that little fact:rotfl:. My mum is actually quite a bit shorter than me:eek: so me got no hope:rotfl:

    Edited the initials after looking up on google CJD
