Hi all, no news from the police yet. Just lots of forms to fill in and we've realised we have a few other things missing, like the sat nav I borrowed off my Dad. MIL has kindly loaned us her car for a couple of weeks as FIL is off work. It means we can get out and about while DD is off school without relying on other people or buses & trains. SIL has also given us her pram (a Phil & Teds) until ours either turns up or we get a replacement. I'm hoping that the fact we haven't heard about the car yet means it's been dumped somewhere in one piece rather than being burnt out.
Most people have been so kind, but a few have made me want to scream! I run our local Freegle group. I broke all our rules and put out a Wanted:Burglars message, partly to ask people to keep an eye out for my car, but also to warn people to be extra vigulent about security. There's only about 3000 people on our group, but our neighbouring group sent out a message to their 15000 members. I had loads of messages of support... but someone complained that we were abusing the email system! I eventually today managed to put together a polite email telling him he was being unreasonable. I wanted to tell him to eff off and I'm so sorry his Christmas was ruined because he received an email warning him about burglars!
Anyway, baby stuff. We've had to move up to size 3 nappies! I think I find this more destressing than moving out of 0-3 month clothing. Still no period here thankfully, although he's slept through the night for 6 nights out of 7 now. I made it to 6 months with DD though.
Scheh Same sentiments here about both my kids. DD (4) can drive me up the wall sometimes, but the other night when DD, Seth & I were all curled up on the sofa together I felt so lucky, even with all the rubbish things happening.
Strawberry Welcome. Seth sleeps loads, day and night, but DD was totally different. He smiles and coos and gurgles. DD was smiley but not very chatty, so it's really hard to judge what's "normal."
No ridiculous presents this year. My MIL may have finally taken the hint about toiletries! I've been telling her outright for years that I'm allergic to everything and this is the first year she's not bought me any!
I've just been going through Seth's things and realised there are at least 3 outfits he's never worn which don't fit. One of them I'd already swapped for a bigger size once. He lives in babygro's, he only wears proper clothes if we go out... and that isn't very often. Babygro's must be so much comfier for them.
We're off out for New Year. I didn't particularly want to, but we have to leave the house empty at some point so I'd best get it over and done with.
Hope everyone has a great New year celebration what every you're doing. Here's to 2012!
