New thread.

May our nights be dry, our days free of wicking, and may growth spurts coincide with lovely new fluffy product releases. Hurrah!

I'm the first to join you here!

Was starting to feel nervous. My first new thread within a thread. Iyswim.

Have you tried giving Clement some pre and pro biotics? Lots of bifidum infantis and the regular ones might help.

Agree lashings of yogurt, in the entrance and spread all over the exit grin

Thought I'd join in on the spooky name change wink

tree: Clement has had the odd bites of youghurt, but mostly it's been fromage frais he eats, so I must try and get the good stuff in him!

We need our own fluffy delivery van.

mumskullface Thu 29-Oct-09 23:27:26

Or a mobile fluff shop. Like a mobile library.

treedeLivingDeadery Thu 29-Oct-09 23:32:31

Howdy Folks grin

I need some handholding today, dd3 has asked for knickers on shock She has been asking for wee's morning and night and sometimes during the day for the last week, so we are giving it a go grin Going out to celebrate my mums birthday this afternoon so will take loads of spare knickers and trousers, she is currently wearing a pair of dd2's tiny knickers as she hasn't got any of her own, so a trip to tesco is in order me thinks!

I'm just waiting to pay for the oogga boogga dress on cnt, im hoping that if it is too small as a dress for dd4 then she cn wear it as a long line t shirt, she is still very small though and is only in 9-12 month clothes so fingers crossed it will fit!

I only have 2 children at home today as my parents invited dd's 1&2 for a sleepover, i thought it would be quiet compared to the rest of the week but they are not singing in microphones so alas no grin

Loving Tree's fluffy van, as long it doesn't cross any picket lines wink

Am waiting for a pair of merino longies smile in raspberry red. Was thinking of getting a few more wraps, but decided to make an investment as the wool is also great just as leggings, and under waterproofs.

Ordered some liquid lanolin so am going to try that.

4 Good luck with the potty training. What a clever girl to ask! smile

2nd pair of knickers now on grin

treedeLivingDeadery Fri 30-Oct-09 10:23:44

Wow 4*!!

*Ilove
envy at raspberry longies. envy

Thread van is fully paid up member of union and may cross picket lines - but only to park when dropping off coffee and buns to postal workers.

Thanks for new thread tree!

Have seen some Debbie's bliss chunky 100% wool on ebay - that should be ok souldn't it? Also they have some mirasol hand dyed stuff which is a reasonable price, but although it is 100% wool it is only DK <doubleknit> weight, that wouldn't cut it would it?????

4 - wow, good luck grin I am dreading the day PT comes with N as she is my last baby, hoping I have a year of fluff left at least though!

WNNN was a brilliant success, no sore thighs, no leaks, and she went to bed with nappy rash and woke up this morning without it grin - Yay!!!!!!!

mumskullface Fri 30-Oct-09 11:48:07

That's great news Myjob now I'm wishing I ordered 4 of them! Did u use a cuddlesoft inner? So it's as good as microfleece?

myjobismum Fri 30-Oct-09 12:28:29

Mumface - yes, 3 with cuddlesoft inner (1 mocha, 1 pink, 1 blue) and one ivory fleece (though tbh wondering why I didn't get white cuddlesoft <daft> ) I do use a fleece liner with it though, but mostly in an effort to prevent stains lol!

Have ordered some wool - looks really lovely and is handspun and hand dyed 100% merino, not sure if weight, but am sure will be fine - cost about £10 for 2 balls that should knit 125m each - I am just going to use one ball each side and see whether they end up shorties, crops or longies as I go lol!

mumskullface Fri 30-Oct-09 12:35:02

I'm beginning to get worried about my keyring turning up now, if it's a very little parcel it could easily get lost! Did your Ouch Pouch arrive Myjob?

myjobismum Fri 30-Oct-09 12:46:07

No sad Mumface it hasn't arrived yet.

anyone know what these Chinese nappies are like?

They are the same PUL pattern as the older blue printed Fuzzibunz! shock Bit tempting to me! lol

Octothebigblackscaryspider Fri 30-Oct-09 14:00:22

Oh no - will post out more - will pick nicest patterns have left Grrrrrr to Royal Mail sad angry. The keyrings on their own were in white A5 envelopes and the other stuff would have been in grey plastic postal bags. Have to go to PO anyway today - really concerned about posting stuff now - will need to put claims in too.

Good news however is that the wet bags are now at East Midlands Airport YEAH! Bit concerned to be honest about posting them out with RM. Not sure what to do!

Octothebigblackscaryspider Fri 30-Oct-09 14:00:58

I cold be the fluffy postman and drive round country delivering cloth lol

myjobismum Fri 30-Oct-09 14:13:33

mumskullface Fri 30-Oct-09 14:14:32
