morning all!
i gave loads of things to my cousin last year when she had a little girl,but i kept some of dd's clothes that i couldnt get rid of.had a sort out and if this is a girl she'll have lots of pretty dresses and thats about it!!me and my mum have been buying bits for the baby,and ive now got a suitcase full of white baby things!!(babygrows and vests)my neighbour thinks im mad getting everything so early,but ive got so much to buy for the new hosue aswell,so i wanted to get all the baby stuff out of the way!im glad i have started early,because all ive got to get now is my pram (def getting a silver cross balmoral)and some bedding for it!won a bottle warmer on ebay last night,even though im going to bf this one,it'll come in handy if i express and when baby goes onto solids.
my cousin has ordereda bugaboo cameleon for her baby thats due in sept.cheeky mare though put deposit on it and then told her disabled mum she could pay for it!!my aunty isnt going to though.she said cousin has enough money coming in so she can buy it herself.i just dont like them at all.i think they look plasticky.
felt the worst mum on the planet last night.ds1 (15) threw a rock at a passing lorry.i went mad at him,explained he couldve caused an accident and people couldve got killed.he shrugged it off and said other people do worse!i couldnt believe it.(just to explain,ds has behavioural probs,blond in one eye,and mild epilepsy,but he still shouldve known better).anyway,after trying to get through to him how serious it was and him not listening to a bloody word i said,i rang the police!i asked for someone to come and have a word with him.they said theyd ring back,which thye didnt.ds started thinking i hadnt really rang them,but at 9.30pm knock at the door and the police where here.the policeman was lovely.i explained what had happened and that i didnt want to waste their time,but i thought ds might listen to how serious it was coming from a policeman.the policeman was lovely.said i had done the right thing in ringing them to get someone to talk to ds.ds was so ashamed at being told off by a policeman,he sat there with his head down crying that he wouldnt do it again and that he was sorry.
dh agreed that what id done was right,and hopefully ds will now think before he does things.my mum thinks im such a horrible preson for ringing the police about my own son!she said he might rebel against me now.but judging by his reaction last night,i dont think he will.told her the police werent angry with ds,just told him how bad it was,and that if he does anything like it again he'd tell our local policeman,and if he continued to get into trouble after that he'd have a criminal record for the rest of his life,making getting a job hard.
felt better that police agreed id done the right thing in ringing them,but having my mum have a go really upset me.she doesnt understand i dont want him thinking you can get away with that sort of behaviour,and i dont want him getting into trouble.
anyway,moan over!!
