Its boo i tell you!
Borg shsh pat is the baby whisperer i think,you say shush rythymically whilst patting firmly the bum or chest alternatly.i think it stops them crying cos the brain cant cope with 2 things at once
the idea is to teach them to settle in cot not arms but that they are not abandoned.Dilly took a while and laughed a lot grrrrr.I really shouldnt answer you tho cos you ignored me yesterday when i asked re the aquarium
just led in garden with Dilly pawing me,she has had half a lolly,it so hot here that even i am under shade

Peekaboo! Need already. Dh texted to say he'd be late back, I replied saying he won't be! She's not even playing up, it's just too damn hot to be patient, playful, etc. Going on a 6 hour train journey with her tomorrow - wish me luck!

Peepo! Definitely feeling like time for a already today. DP swears he'll be home on time so I might drag him for a walk that accidentally goes to the pub.
R is sleeping loads in the day at the mo which is pretty unusual, she had an hour at about 11:30 and has been asleep again since 2:30. Guess it must be the weather and I think she might be growing again.
I need to bake cupcakes for our NCT meet up shortly but I have a feeling as soon as I start she'll wake and want her tea.
Can't remember who else was looking for a stroller but mothercare have an OBaby one reduced to 59.99 at the mo, so going to look at it tomorrow to check out how it reclines. Still can't quite believe I'm thinking about another buggy after how much the oyster cost!

it's PEEPO in our house. Just marking my place. I have chilling in the fridge. A yummy bottle of sparkling rose. Which i am going to open at half 7 when kiddos are in bed. We were contemplating taking them to brum sealife but remembered it was the holidays so no chance.
Oh we're no longer contagious yeah

Peepo everyone!
Girls in bed after the noisiest day ever. Imy's had a day-long tantrum today. I will give you an example of Her Awfulness's behaviour. Breakfast time. Weetabix, milk, a bit of sugar, just how she likes it. One spoonful in mouth- then SCREAM!!!!! She screamed so loud she woke up her sister. Joy. She carried on after this all day, pretty much. S has been on and off, too, dead tired this pm, she went to bed at 7, they both did. She ate for tea half a mango, then half a banana, then some yoghurt- her belly is like a tight little drum! Whilst I was getting her in her babygrow she stuffed a cotton bud in her mouth and presumably down her throat as half her dinner came back up! It's official, I'm the first one with a child with an eating disorder
Did you get those cupcakes baked choc?
needto Pirates Day? 
BTW where are you from, I can't remember- my PILs say bo and they're from Manchester area.

Evening all, Anna just spent 15 mins squealing and I mean ear piercing squeals before deciding to go to sleep, she can be a bit moany but this was shocking. Can't even blame the heat here
hubbard Congrats on a pox free house, enjoy the
debka fancy a weekend night down the pub Hope tonight is ok and Imy returns to her usual charming self.
We went to a swanky park today, very fancy dan, it was fab and I was thinking to myself "ooh very Mumsnetty" and they had a huge sign just inside saying "Voted No3 in NetMums poll of best free attractions in NI" I am off to have a nosy to find out what No1 and No2 are . Am putting bets down with you all that No1 is the museum!
Ps My pils use the word 'bo' for poo

wiggles you got me intrigued enough at the netmums best free attractions to look them up for my area but couldn't find anything about the awards on their website . Btw how can a park be fancy? Surely it's just some grass, trees, plants, paths and maybe some playground equipment/ice cream sellers if you're lucky? What defines it as fancy?
needto arrrr arrrr me harties - you're going to have to expand on the pirate day
deb here's hoping tomorrow is much much much better
Is this going to turn into a getting drunk on friday night thread then with ledkr , choc and hubbard at it (not 'it' )

Reastie it was laid out beautifully, there were five different play areas, picnic tables in abundance, toilets , a coffee/cake vendor, loads of big spaces to lay out a blanket, a different world . I went onto NetMums local and typed in NetMums Awards 2011 and bingo on the Museum - no1 My local pages on here are piss poor, but NetMums is very bright and shiney
NeedToSleep have to admit am fascinated by pirate day too.

chocco the cakes sound fab!
wiggles the park sounds great, our local parks are good but not that great.
ledkr hope you are enjoying your tunes and wine!
Im having a wee or 2 whilst watching a film, The film is "faster" but i have given up on it.
debka hope you manage a good sleep and the girls both behave.

choc im on the rose,tit lovely,am in grave danger of finishing the bottle. I was at Ibiza rocks 2 years ago,fabbo,im abit of an old dance music fan.i have loads of friends in Play den bossa so am getting lots of texts to wind me up grrr.
deb it sounds as if Immy is reacting to the attention that s requires,id say give her lots and reassure her,one of my boys started to pooh his pants when a new brother came.Poor you,you are really up against it,i am in awe of you coping,must be a very special lady.
wiggles park sounds unreal.are you sure it wasnt a dream love?
Off to find a drunk thread.

Well we had some waking, some sleeping, some pacing, some co-sleeping and this morning a proud looking S on her tummy, she'd rolled over in her cot! Night no better than the one before really, will pack the sleepers off to Granny's tomorrow and do some training.
tad glad to hear Sammy's so big and bonny :)
Hope you all enjoyed your drunken carousings
