@Curlymam88 thanks darling. Yes his expressions are funny.. omg leola look so big. I can believe how much hair she has. She is so beautiful... I love her big blue eyes... she looks so much like her older sister... your eldest daughter has lovely eyes too. They look so cute... aww bless leola is growing up fast bless her. How nice your away again.. I really need to go away myself but the cost of living now is driving me insane. Xx

[Curlymam88]

@jadey1991 I know, I think I need to take her gor a trim. She doesn't have a style as duch yet, it's sprouting from all directions lol. Thanks for the lovely comments on my girls, your little family is so gorgeous too. I love their hair styles.
Tbh I nidnt want to come for that reason, im thinking we could have used the money on something else. My partner booked it eithout telling me! Think he was having a mad moment. Things are so expensive now aren't they? How are you getting on with your new job? Hope its going well.

[jadey1991]

@Curlymam88 thank you darling means a lot what you said about my kids. Aww bless how my was that. At least he surprised you all.. to be honest I stopped my private job. It was inconvenient times.

Yes things are getting expensive now

sorry so quiet here. We are struggling though sleep regression at the min still so I’m exhausted. I’m feeling totally off it today and S has been under his play gym most of the day entertaining himself which I feel awful about but my OH says one day won’t hurt and he’ll still be taking everything in. Im lucky I guess that he will play quite independently. He loves grabbing the hanging toys and other bits that are around him. Of course it all goes in his mouth at the min.
@Curlymam88 hope you had a lovely holiday, we are going to Dorset in June so hoping to get those first beach experiences if we get the weather for it. Nervous about him sleeping (or not) in the travel cot though!
@jadey1991 He is so cute, I cant believe how fast it is going. Oh god! The cost of living is ridiculous at the min, energy bill has doubled and food bill just keeps rising. Even formula has gone up by £1 a tub.

[jadey1991]

@Decadesbcun aww sorry to hear that hun. Is S teething? I noticed that Josiah wasn't sleeping great because he was teething and still is but it's not painful now and he will sleep throughout night (waking for a feed or 2 and nappy change). It's good that he can ply independently. Josiah likes watching coco melon. I hope you and the family have a great time in Dorset... thanks for the comments on Josiah...
yes the cost of everything is going up. I've spent so much money on electric this month it's unbelievable...

Do any of you ladies get the £150 rebate?

[lovebeingmum9]

Thanks @jadey1991 he has got so big....he's on hungrier baby milk as thought that would fill him up for longer but he still has around 150ml/180ml every 3hrs even during the night! Aww josiah is gowing lovely glad all is well with him and you all! Beautiful pics 😍 yes his christening was lovely and intimate with just the 7 of us so no pressure or expenses just able to enjoy and make memories.....hubby and I celebrated our 13th wedding anniversary 8days later so was nice as the vicar blessed us too (I'm not particularly religious but appreciate any blessing) How's everything with you,are you still trying to move home or is it working out well where you are now?
Thanks @Curlymam88 glad your all good little leola isn't so little anymore,growing beautifully and does look like her big sis (got trouble on your hands) hehe 😉 we joke that if any boy want to date our daughter in future they need to fill out an application form and come for an interview lol glad you had a good holiday and got to go to beach with leola for the first time 😊 We live on the coast and it's beautiful for fun days out! The expense is ridiculous ladies everything going up so much its crazy!

[jadey1991]

@lovebeingmum9 aww how nice hun. Happy anniversary to you both.. must of been lovely..
I'm still trying to move hun. My place is to small. Plus they are trying to keep me and my OH apart. They won't allow him to go onto my tenancy m. Only way I can put him on there is if we move and do a joint application... other then that we are all going well. Just trying to figure out how we are going to survive through this cost of living. My partner is working part time and I'm not at the mo

[Curlymam88]

@Decadesbcun sorry to hear about baby S sleep regression. Do all babies get it? Touch wood leola has veen fine. She even slept through every night while we were away. Hopefully baby S will too. Might be to do with the sea air as they say. I took my next2me with us which is her usual bed anyway.
@jadey1991 same as Leola she likes a vit of coconut melon. Find myself with the songs stuck in my head lol. What is the rebate for? Is it council tax?
@lovebeingmum9 thank you, all the babies here have frown so fast. Sounds like you've had a nice bit of family time. Same here my partner will definitely be like that when the girls are a bit older 🤣

[Curlymam88]

Coco melon lol. Seems like my phone doesn't like it 😂

[jadey1991]

@Curlymam88 yeah it the council rebate.. also I don't know if it's the same for you all, but do you get healthy start?

[jadey1991]

@Curlymam88 lol that's a new one coconut melon🤣🤣

[Curlymam88]

I think we had that a few weeks ago. My partner works full time so we weren't able to get the healthy start. Aren't they vouchers you can put towards buying baby milk?

[jadey1991]

@Curlymam88 yes that's right. I thought anyone could get them. I got accepted and my partner works full time. Strange that isn't it. As for the council tax rebate I'm still waiting.

[Decadesbcun]

Yes we got the council tax rebate straight into our bank. Of course it’s gone already on other bills 🙄
@Curlymam88 no I don’t think they all go through ut, but it’s something to do with sleep cycles and transition from one cycle to another. He usually sleeps in a next2me so not a bad idea to take that with us as he will be used to it I guess and it will smell more familiar.
@jadey1991 yes I think he is teething, lots of chewing and dribbling!! After talking about rolling over Seth has suddenly decided he doesn’t want to roll anymore, I put him on his front and he just puts his head down and cries so not sure what’s going on there. He has found his feet though and is grabbing them all the time so maybe he’s just more interested in that at the minute. We don’t get healthy start, I’ve never heard of it actually.

[Decadesbcun]

Seth not seen coco melon but he does love funky veggies on you tube!

[jadey1991]

@Decadesbcun aww bless him. Josiah was like that at one point.. he didn't like being on his front. Now he loves it.
Oh maybe it might be different where you live. Maybe checking not out and seeing if your entitled to help with that.

[lovebeingmum9]

Thanks @jadey1991 yeah it's super expensive we have bills coming out of our ears too....hubby works 2 jobs full time so we can afford all the expenses of having a home and children etc don't think we qualify for healthy start and not sure if we've had our rebate yet or not will have to check! Oscar loves cocomelon too haha when he wakes up in the morning he's happy to chill in his seat and watch TV while I get school bits,pack lunches ready.
@Curlymam88 they are all growing lovely! yes very protective but she also has her 4 younger brothers so doubt she will bring boys back anyway! 🤣🤣

[jadey1991]

@lovebeingmum9 aww how lovely. I love it when they just sit there and chill haha..
Aww bless your hubby he must be shattered. I

[lovebeingmum9]

@jadey1991 yeah he's a really hard worker but still an amazing hubby and dad, still helps with school runs etc and we have family time on Sundays. we are both shattered 🤣😅 but we wouldn't have it any other way ❤ What's everyone's plans for half term or anyone celebrating jubilee? 🇬🇧 Can't believe how quick it's coming round...Will be summer holidays soon and all our kids go up next year in school.....our eldest will be starting secondary next September so we've been looking at secondary schools with her which is very dauntingvfor us all 🤯

[jadey1991]

@lovebeingmum9 yes my darling I can imagine. Planning on going Southend during holidays and try plan some days out. I don't celebrate the jubilee...
yes I can o ku imagine how daunting it is for you all. My eldest goes up to year 9 in September and youngest daughter goes to year 4.
Is your daughter looking forward to it?

[lovebeingmum9]

@jadey1991 aw that would be lovely especially if the weather's as nice and sunny as today 😊 I don't think I've ever been to Southend but hear its nice! We was just saying today we need to get kids new passports and book a holiday for next year,! ours are going upto Yr 6,yr4 and year 1 crazy how quick that seems to have gone......yes she's very excited as she with either be walking to the local secondary or getting a bus to go to her 1st school of choice,either way will be grown up and make her own way there 🙈

[jadey1991]

@lovebeingmum9 yes Southend is lovely. We like it there. We are planning to go great yarnmouth as well this year but don't know when lol. Aww yes children are growing up so quick.. bless your daughter I do hope she will enjoy secondary school

[lovebeingmum9]

@jadey1991 ah lovely another place we havnt been! Tbh we havnt really done much holidaying here in England/uk....something we definitely want to do though! Obviously been and stayed in London but I'd love to go Devon among many other places! We are looking to do some home improvements this year but looking at maybe greece or Turkey next year as our 1st family holiday as a family of 7 😁 and before daughter starts secondary,everything is just so expensive though! Thankyou she's still got another Yr in primary but that will soon fly round 😊

[jadey1991]

@lovebeingmum9 aww they sound like lovely places to go... we would love to go aboard. Yes it is very expensive. WE want to go Spain. But we my self and oh don't have covid vaccination so it's going to be local places for us. So well your daughter do her sats?
