    Tbh I wondered after I wrote that how old the baby is? As thiers the first sitting up stage where obvouisly your putting him thier then the 2nd when they can actally sit up by themselfs...

    And obvouisly their is a major time gap in between!

    I think we can't help but be proud of what ever they do... hehe :D

    Gilly, lol its fun to be sober and laugh at the drunk ones :p

    I cringe when I think that used to be me, all slurring words and staggering everywhere :eek: Also the current obsession with !!!! cheeks hanging out of shorts? I'm glad I don't have a girl!

    Going out just isn't the same now Gilly is it? I think I quite like being at home though.

    Oh no I had a nice evening at the cinema :o I was quite happy to come home though and not be battling the crowds.


    R.e sizing, I have started buying 2-3 to put away as we have our 18-24 wardrobe in the drawers and went to the Next sale last week and couldn't resist. A is still in mostly 9-12m stuff, especially trousers and shorts. He is 18 months next week :eek: So for any buying ahead I'm trying not to buy anything that is too wintery or too summery because I've done it in the past and it's never been worn because it hasn't fitted at the time it should.

    My OH is at work and A is still at my SIL so I've managed to get most of my housework done this morning and have breakfast :j going for a shower now and then hopefully I'll get to sit with a brew before the monster returns :o

    Lol, I cringe for the girls whose bums are on show too - does not look good.

    Aiden is still in 9-12 shorts and trousers but 12-18tops. Think he has shorter legs in comparison to his body.

    I was too late for the next sale, nothing nice left when I got there :(

    Morning ladies (ooops, it'll probably be afternoon before I've finished this post!) :)

    Yay for a good night Sunshine and for sitting Bamama! :j Good night here too - she slept through to 4.45. Then had a nap from 7.50 to 11.10! :eek: But I got to sleep too, so I'm not complaining - we've just had breakfast!

    I don't miss going out at all - I used to go out for dinner a fair bit, but haven't been once since LO was born. Tend to meet people for lunch instead - I need coffee more than wine these days! :D

    Hope everyone is having a good day x

    We got up at 4am when we were in London to go to the Next sale, probably the definition of sad :o I did go to my local one on Wednesday and I got a few nice bits for gifts but all in much smaller sizes so no good for us with those older than 1 :(

    Coffee here too Nutella, I'd rather have a nice cake and coffee than alcohol, although I am partial to a nice cocktail now and again!

    Just back from a bit of shopping - got 10 hairclips for 75p and a pack a two pyjamas for £4 for LO in Tesco. Both half price, but I didn't know that until I got to the till, so it was a nice surprise given that I'd have bought them anyway! Also discovered that my favourite local food shop, a wonderful Turkish place, sells fresh yeast (I don't like the dry stuff) :) I ended up buying some, so I now have no excuses not to bake bread! Although some halloumi bread may have fallen into my basket...

    Anyone else finding that they're getting through an extraordinary amount of nappies at the moment? Hot weather = lots of water = lots of wee!

    We use reusables and I'd say I'm using about 1 extra a day :o I think he's sweating out all the extra water. It must be going somewhere? :D

    He's nearly 7mo Kayalana :)

    Nutella. I will gladly have more wet nappies. All I'm changing is little bits of poo. I had 7 yesterday!

    Nutella ask the Bakery in Tesco for fresh yeast, some charge 30p for 100g some will give it for free.
