Mince pies - never a big fan of them, but boy did i find room for them yesterday! Had my first xmas dinner of the season (well, lunch), a good girlie gossip and i polished off the whole 3 course meal with room to spare. How did that happen?!!! Up until a couple of days ago i haven't had enough room to put that amount of food in my gut, baby must have moved!
Oh, and today have managed 7/8ths of a 14" pizza. What a piggy.
In other news, my cradle has been collected by a friend, but have to wait another week or so before i get it....still, it's mine, all mine! Have ordered spare matteress and sheets for it etc.
Went to see the Dogs Trust behaviourist today to see how we can acclimatise our poor rescue dog to the whole baby thing - he came out of it well, she sussed straight away that i'm the one who'll struggle giving less attention to my baby (the furry snouted one, not the one in the oven) . Have had to get one of those dolls that cry so I can carry it round and get the dog used to me giving something else my attention. It's such an evil looking doll too! On the plus side, it has an off switch .
We went to toys r us to buy it on the way home, and while there, i decided it would be a good idea to set up a gift list with them. What a palaver. Can't manage it online, but thought the whole scanning stuff in store would be easy. First off, though, this was the first time they'd been asked to set up a gift list. Then someone else marched us back to the desk as they thought we were using the handheld scanner without authorisation. Then found out everything we'd scanned in hadn't transferred to the computer, so had to go through it all manually anyway! We were in there for nearly 2 hours all in all.
The John Lewis list service is much easier, but their stock ain't all that great.
