He doesn't sit still though. He's forever climbing or cruising round room. He has almost grown out of cuddles too !

If dh is there then why don't you go back to bed and why didn't he take ds to the supermarket?!

I'm full of lemsip thanks ladies.
Dh has had ds all day and took him out so I could stay in bed but he has a long standing boys day tomorrow and I really don't want to stop him going. Dh has been super lovely today!
