    Morning,

    I feel like a walking zombie....Noah woke up every hour throughout the night. :(

    Does anyone order their photos to be printed online? I have over 250 photos I need printing but not sure whether to take them to a supermarket or see if I can do it online? May have to have a look at prices.

    I use snapfish, they have a sale on at the moment, I get all my photos from there and they are usually good quality and delivered fast. I also have just bought a photo mug for my nans birthday... They are very good too.

    Have a look, they have a special offers page :)

    Boo to zombie feeling!

    Edit, snapfish have a mobile app and you can upload straight from your phone :)

    Not done either lately but if it's 250 it might take a looong time to upload all of them? How fast is your internet?

    Thanks delain I will have a look.

    savage I haven't a clue, I'm sure DP done an online test to do with broadband speed and he said it was really quick. We are with talk talk. :o

    I didn't realise I could upload pics from my mobile, I always wondered what to do about them.

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    Morning. I'm back in my own house now and it's taken me days to feel back to normal. I went a bit crazy yesterday and was so sick of living in a hovel that I filled 13 black bin bags with stuff and they're all thrown away now. I still have more to do but surely it must make it easier to keep things tidy with less stuff? I sincerely hope so :o We have finally decided to let A sleep on his own, so we moved our bed into what should have been his room (its tiny) and let him keep the big room. Been 2 nights now and not a peep so I don't think he minds :j

    R.e the photo prints, try and do it online, the supermarkets are really expensive I find. Last year I managed to get around 600 printed for £10 thanks to 5p per print after 500 copies and a 40% discount code. I float between Boots and Photobox (they're different companies now) only thing is postage tends to be a fair whack because they're heavy so if you spend over £20 Boots will deliver to store for free which is handy :)

    We have 3 molars coming through at the moment, it's the first top ones and he really isn't coping well, it's the first time he's been as sore with teeth I think :( Poor munchkin. Dosed up on teething granules, anbesol and nurofen.

    I'm so jealous of you all with Kiddicare, We don't have one here and delivery costs £7.95 for EACH box. For that reason alone I boycott them, like I do any company that charges more to send to here, we're still the UK!

    Well best run I have porridge to make for LO who's just woken up.

    I need to tidy my room later gilly, its driving me nuts with stuff everywhere too!

    So far this morning I'm on washing load no.2 and just stripped beds to go in next, dishwasher and dryer on, got a few more jobs to do, then we're going to town to get library books. Thinking about walking just because the bus is so expensive and because the monsters all seem to be so hyper that tiring them out might help! Also it means that squeak will sleep in the buggy and not be tired and miserable in town.

    Now a 5 mile round trip walk and maybe squeezing the park in would tire out most kids. Whether it will work on this lot, who knows.

    Hopefully they will be so cream crackered they will sit quietly and read this afternoon. I can dream :rotfl:

    Sammie: DD1 looked like Casper the friendly ghost until she was 2, almost completely bald :) she has long thick hair now tho. FWIW long hair is overrated. I go into panic mode when I get a 'head lice in class' letter.

    I had to go to the school reception working on supply and get them to send the nit letters out... I had caught nits from one of the kids in the class!

    First time in over a decade working in schools that I ever got them - I'm lucky in that they don't like my hair (and it's tied up within an inch of its life whenever working with children)!

    I was bald and got called Kojak by the staff when I was born - now have really fine poker straight hair - but tonnes of it so people think it's really thick.

    My laptop is broken so I can't do links :o feel free to pm me your email ad for a photo :rotfl: I've had it a year now and would highly recommend it. :)

    Pigpen has two :eek:

    Edit: that's three sets of single bedding, not all six beds!

    How many loads of washing do you do a day delain?

    I only need to do 1 a day unless its bedding/towels where I will do 2 loads. I'm a nasty mummy though and make the boys fold there clothes back up if they are clean and non smelly. :cool:

    Noah has certainly made up for his lack of sleep last night, he has had a 3 hour nap this morning and now he is sleeping again. I'm tempted to send OH down the chippy tonight! :p
