A new place to chat about our beautiful babies growing and playing

[KLou111]

A new place to meet ladies :)

Yes I ment primark!! Is this iPad, it put in words it thinks I am going to use! And it's really hard to put the smiley faces in now, it's just too much trouble to do it, so I don't bother!

I am on the hunt for some nude pants, I want some midi ones, I still cant wear my old bikini ones, I can't stand anything sitting in my scar, and m and s want £12 for a 5 pack of black and nude!! But only £7 for coloured ones. I am not going to pay that if I can help it as I only want the nude ones and there's only 2 in the pack....ggrrrrrrrr

Hello ladies, sorry not been on for a bit, my mum and dad came tues aft as it was robs birthday weds and they came as they wanted to babysit :) Had a lovely time with them both, they left yesterday lunchtime. Strange that we'll be living up the road next time we see them, 6 weeks Monday if all goes to plan :o
A friend Rob went to school with came this morning, he text yesterday to see if it was ok. He's having some marriage issues bless him, so he's out getting pissed with Rob. Meant I've had a lovely afternoon with our little fella on my own, and they're bringing me a take away back from town :o
Euan is ok, had some sleeping issues the last couple of nights. He keeps sitting up, screaming, then won't go back down! And he's VERY clingy too, doesn't want to sleep on his own. Woke a couple of times last night. In the end I tucked him in so he couldn't move, and woke at 9.15!

Hope violet is feeling a bit better today Liz poor little lady. I had sticky eyes when I was a baby. So far Euans been ok. How's the inhaler doing? What fake tan have you got?
Have you looked online for your knickers?
I would not he impressed with the flower thing, rude fucker!!! If your successful, that's because you got yourselves there for you, not for someone else!!!! Is tell him to sod right off!!

Omg 2 weeks iwish!!! Bet you're so excited!! Have you got everything sorted?
good boy Joshie with his sleeping again :)

Well, gotta go, Euan has troffed his chicken and butter bean burger, so needs his pud x

£12 for a pack of knickers just because they are nude!? liz. Check online like klou said. How's violets eye today?

klou Im glad you had a nice time with your mum and dad. Not long till you will be right near them.
Wonder why Euans sleep has been bad? Is he waking loads?

Had the best night yet from Joshua last night. 7:25-7:25 without a peep!! Not even 1 cry in the night. V proud of him.

Well done Joshua!!!

Euan woke briefly at 3.30 and 6 as he keeps rolling on his front, but can't roll back bless him. So I rolled him back, and straight off.
The night before, when he woke at 4.15, he wouldn't let me leave the room! So, much better last night.

Meant to say, had his 8-9 month check on Thursday, he's on the same line for weight, 22lb, 7.5oz, @ 9 months, 4 days, and just below the top line for height!!!! He'll be 6'4"+ if he carries on!!

Evening all, violets eyes not quite as gunky as they were, but she's got it in both eyes now, good job it's getting better.

She was in bed last night at 6.20 and slept till 5 so I gave her a bottle and she slept again till 8.45!! Even lulu slept till then too so had a nice lay in this morning!!

Managed to get some knickers from primark, 3 for a £5 which I thought wasn't bad, seamless and all that crap. Ended up spending an hour in there and spending £76!! Luckily violet was asleep the whole time!

Klou, I have some of that st morritz cheap stuff, I do have a few other sorts, some st tropez for my face, but the cheap one was recommended to me by a few people and it's ace. It's about £4 for a bottle of the mousse and goes on lovely, looks fairly good and doesn't stink too much.

Am using the inhalers more, but don't seem to be making it better, I don't know if it will have any effect this early on tho. Dad keeps commenting that it's not right for a baby to be like this, but what else can I do!

Klou, can you roll a blanket up under his sheet to stop him rolling? I worked for us

oooooo I'll try that Liz, good idea. He likes sleeping on his side, but just keeps falling too far, then he's stuck!

Glad Violets eyes not too bad today. Nice sleep too! That was good for your knickers, what else did you get?
I'm looking forward to getting 'home' and having all the shops around again. Rugby has an Asda, and Coventry has a Primark, which is where all our houses are, so will pop in there from time to time, while Rob goes and checks on things.
Might have to try your tan, don't want to go white again!!

oh, did lulu have a trike? like one of these
Just looking at things for Euan, and not sure if they're worth getting?

Yes she did have one, we used it lot when we went racing every weekend, made a nice change from her being strapped in her pushchair all he time, they are very good if your going to walk places.

I have already got one for violet off the Facebook for sale site! Was £15 but doesn't have the canopy over the top. The one from lulus days got wrecked.

What didn't I get from primark! Got 2 pairs of pump type deck shoes, a pair of fancy sandals, a pair of flip flops, 2 pairs of shoes for Lulu, packs of socks, Jamas, nities, pants, dress and leggings all fro lulu too. And some t shirts and leggings for the baby. Oh and some of them footsies things for wearing with ballet pumps.

I want one of those trikes for Joshua klou think my mum and dad are going to buy it for his birthday. How was Euan last night?

Fab about your lay in liz bet you were well happy! Sounds like you got loads from primark. I need a trip there to get some stuff.

F me. Joshua slept 7:30pm-8:00am!! He had a little whinge at 8:00pm but then didn't hear a peep!

That's what I was looking for, Euans birthday iwish from my mum and dad too :) We're getting him a car that has a battery and he can steer it, pedals, etc, but has parental control til then, put a link up. You can get alsorts. They say from 3+ but the reviews on them, people have from 1. I want to get him the jeep as its a 2 dearer, but it looks huge!!

Well done Joshie again!!!! Euan was great too, woke o be turned around 10, then slept through til Bali friggin started barking at 6.10!!!! If it ain't one, its the other!!!

2 seater not dearer!!!

jeep car

Oooh that jeep looks cool! I've seen a remote controlled one before but it wasn't a jeep. It was a girly pink one and looked quite cute but that jeep is something else lol.

I bet we could spend a fortune on them v easily. I don't know what we will get Joshua, I'm going to be looking around toys r us for stuff I think.

Yey Euan on sleep. Shame Bali woke him up tho lol.

Nicks alarm went off at 6:30 but he wanted to change it to 7:30 but instead of moving it back an hour he changed the time a hour instead lol so his alarm didn't go off. He woke at 8:00 when Joshua woke me, bless him he had to fly out the door.

Evening all.

Well done Joshua!!! He's doing so well with his sleeping now isn't he! Better then mine now! She's still waking once in the early hours, I give her a bottle and the whole process from getting out of bed to back in takes about 12 mins, so it's not bad, just a pain when she used to sleep all night.

Our dogs often bark and wake her up early, could easily strangle them sometimes.

In my experience, them jeep type cars are abit of a let down, see if ou can go and see one on the flesh, like at toys r us or somewhere. They tend to be great hulking bits of tackyplastic, need charging up all the time, wheels spin rather than move along the ground. And are usually a fortune.
We did have a pink one for lulu, nearly exactly like th link, she must have gone on it about twice before the novelty wore off, but that might have been down to us rather than her

He is doing well liz I hope he carries on. I feel human when he sleeps lol. 12 mins is ok isn't it. But like you said its annoying when she used to sleep through.
Can't remember if I told you but tooth no2 broke through on Saturday. His first one is still only about 1/4 way up tho. And I'm not 100% sure but I think I can see no3 but it's at the bottom again so would have 3 in a row at the bottom. Can't see anything at the top.

It's been gorgeous here today. We went for a walk, set off at 2pm and get back at 3:30. I was totally knackered and had to strip off when I got in because I was roasting. Stripped Joshua off too and he just sat there in his vest lol.

It must be the week for teeth!! Violet has got her 3 rd one, just broke through the gum, it's her top left one. She's been right off her food over the weekend, and am putting it down to that. I hope anyway. She's fine in herself, but keeps blowing raspberries with her savoury food and breakfast, but fine with desserts, surprise surprise!!

Klou, do you give Euan desserts?

It's ment to be warm tomorrow, I have got 2 loads of washing ready to hang out! Need to find work vest out too!!

Evening!
I did think that Liz about the cars. We don't have any toys r us sort of shops here, but do back at home, so will have a look. Thinking we may get the trike for hid birthday, car for Xmas, and parents will have to get something else.

Do I give Euan desserts? God yes, he loved them!! I got some petit filous deserts this week as half price 70p for the choc and vanilla ones, so got 3!
He usually has his lunch, then yoghurt, then a biscuit or cheese stick. Then he has fruit (strawberries, banana, kiwi, peach etc) or rice cakes mid afternoon. Then he has dinner, dairylea or some sort of 1/2 sandwich, then a dessert.

He loves puddings, don't we all lol!
Euan just wanted cold food when his teeth were bothering him, or bread. Might be worth a try savory cold?

Euans top left was his 3rd tooth too, then next one is coming but not cut. The top ones are huge compared to the bottom.

iwish I think it was 2 months before Euans 1st tooth was through properly, took ages!!

Been baking here too, we had a bbq this aft :)

Wow liz no3 already!! She only got her first one hust after Joshua did. Joshua cries when I try and give him warm food when his teeth are bothering him. I have to let it be almost cold before giving it to him. Yoghurts and rice pudding are a hit here. He can be looking full and refusing any more of his meal but when he sees a yoghurt his mouth is open and he's whinging for it.

How many teeth does Euan have klou? I bet joshuas tooth will take ages too, bet no2 will be the sane size as no1 soon lol. He does look cute when he smiles.

It's gorgeous here. Got Joshua's shorts out and we are going to my friends. We are planning on going to the park then back to her house so Joshua and summer can play in the paddling pool.

He's got 3 teeth now, the 4th is almost cut, you can see it really pushing. Prob cut this week.
His 2nd caught up with his 1st, then they both did the last bit.
Must say, they do look super cute :)

Think we may be buying a pair of shoes soon, Euan is getting very confident on his feet, and letting go all the time standing on his own. Just need that step now.
Oh and Euan climbed the first part of the stairs yesterday. Not sure how far he would have got, but he's very quick up the kitchen step now!!

Forgot to say Liz, and I know you shouldn't really do it, but if Euan won't eat for some reason i alternate his savoury and pudding and he eats it all

Violets gone from o to 3 in about 2 weeks! Teeth that is!!

Ah klou, he is so forward!, you just be bursting with pride!! And I have read somewhere that giving them savoury and pudding in reverse is good for them as it doesn't make them associate puddings with reward for eating food.

It's red hot here too. All the kids at the nursery were stripped off

OMG this sunburn hurts!!!! Nick just covered me in sudocrem and it reaaaally hurt!!

Does Violet crawl yet liz? Joshua is nowhere near. He just wants to be stood up all the time.

Euan is doing so much isn't he klou bet you are v proud of him.

Just put Joshua to bed in a sleepsuit with short sleeves and short legs. Couldn't even put his sleeping bag on as he was too hot. Put him in bed at 7:45 but he's only just gone to sleep. Think the heat is really bothering him :(

Very proud :o

What are you like??? I hate sunburn. I only sat in the sun 10 mins on hol as I was scared of burning!
Yoghurt is good for the bad bits. Hope its better tomorrow x

I hope it's better too. It's so damn sore.
Has it been nice near you?

yes iwish she does crawl, in a fashion. cause shes usually covered up and we have wood floor, shes just slid along, but today, she wasjust in her vest before her bath and she got on all fours and did crawl properly. but one leg seems to work better than the other hers armscare doing the right thngs now tho, she used to get her bum up but not her arms!

and she has just this week started to pull herself up on things. not very steadt on her feet tho, she wont stand on her own for a second without out falling straight on her bum.
