December 2012: Everyone loves nap time.

[halestone]

Started a new thread for us before we run out of room.

WillYou :o

Ah that lovely karma willyou! Mil sounds like a nutter!

Willyou, thats brilliant.

Beasty yay to A's sleep.

Nutella i'll find out from my mum whereabouts it was for you.

H hasn't vomited so far today yay

WL i hope T's sleep routine gets better for you soon.

Definite karma Willyou... But why does the silly MIL do that?!

Hales was it a bug? Glad H is feeling better :)

Maryland, the hospital said it was a chest and throat and ear infection. I have my FX shes on the mend now.

Good news Hales

She does it as she's a fucking nutter control freak about food. When we moved in together XP lost 7 stone, going from 21.5 to 14.5 (which is about right as he's very broad and 6' 2"). She sent bags and bags full of shite around as I was obviously starving him. She serves his Christmas dinner on a serving platter. Incidently she doesn't eat, probably has 1 small meal a day. She's still overweight though as she drinks A LOT of wine.

DS is asleep after a trip to the Trafford Centre. He was lovely and charmed the pants off the waiter in TGIs. He even brought him a flake . Need to decide whether to wake him. May have to go to park or he'll never sleep later! Cheeky pic:

Aww cute Willyou! Are you up north as well then? :)

I'm in wigan Maryland, where are you?

Bless him willyou
Good news hales - hope she has. Nice healthy summer.
I popped into waitrose on the way home from the school run - I hate going there with the kids as it's so un-child friendly and we always get tutted at by miserable old bags etc. (not to mention the £ but it's on the way home and DH hadn't got the special bday breakfast for dd2 tomorrow that if asked him to get) today T managed to ram a toothbrush so far down her throat while I was retrieving an eye lash from dd2s eyeball that she puked everywhere. Lovely. Never without incident!

Arse I forgot to buy wine. Joint bday party tom - I'm going to need it!

Willyou I'm in Stockport.

Hales is Wigan way too? Or have I imagined that?!

Hales is Scotland? Although my geography anywhere north of London is pretty shady...

WL I'm on the now - just had a friend's ds for a couple of hours because they were stuck for childcare across a shift change. 15 minutes of histrionics before I shoved his bottle in his mouth which he drained while watching ITNG then I gave him some tea defrosted some broccoli and cauliflower cheese because fruit puree is not tea for a 15mo imo and he wasn't that interested in what had been provided despite hoovering up the breadsticks and changed an exceptionally soggy nappy he was here for under 2 hours, no wonder he's got nappy rash

I'm having and chocolate for my tea!

Wine and chocolate cake tea sounds very appealing Pidj! Why does the LO have fruit purée for his tea?!
Did he eat the broc/cauliflower cheese?!

Bloody hell fruit purée at 15mo. DS would eat his own leg with hunger.

Hales is near me yes, your geography is worse than you thought Spotty.

The wine is cooling in my fridge.

DS is kicking lumps out of his cot and laughing but he's not crying so he can stay there!

DS' cousin who he spent all of Wednesday cuddling, licking and wrestling with has chicken pox. I go to Hong Kong in 7 days. What's the reckoning that the two things coincide to make me feel extra guilty?

I was sure hales was Scottish. Will have to change the accent when I read her posts....

She'll be northern with a slight scouse twang I think (she is in my head anyway)!

WillYou don't feel guilty. He can stay at MIL's- didn't you know chocolate cures every illness?

A's chewing the cot to pieces. And he was stroppy tonight. Big dramatic shakes of the head if I tried to hand him his water, and he flung the cup out of the cot.

DH is working tomorrow, so I'm taking MIL to spend the M&S vouchers we got for her birthday/ mothers day. Also planning to see if the dresses that are reduced on the John Lewis site are also reduced in real life, or at least what size I need to order, ready for my new job. I was going to get DD something to wear for Dad's wedding too, but his DF is in hospital. She's had her kidneys flushed and is on dialysis and they've started chemo, so not with it really. The honeymoon is cancelled, but they aren't deciding about the wedding until next week. I don't want to curse things and buy DD anything. Do you think I can get away with getting her to try things on and buying it later?

I got A out of the bath tonight and stood there and did a wee on the bath mat. Then he gave such a raucous laugh that DD joined in. It was full belly laughing, but almost a dirty laugh iyswim. So proud of himself....

That's just what they sent - their decision, but he seemed hungry so I gave him something with a bit of protein alongside the carbs in the breadsticks :) He'd already drained an 8oz bottle (possibly ebm, we met through bf group, but not sure) and if he'd stayed I'd warmed some cows milk for him.

It's hard to know what's right when it's someone else's child

DS is fascinated with wee coming out of his willy. He loves a stand up wee in the bath. I told my mum off for telling J off for having a nice play with his bits at nappy change time. He only gets access for about 5 minutes a day so I tend to let him have a good rummage!

I don't think ds has seen himself wee. He laughs when he farts though and looks around to see if anyone else noticed

Thankfully he's only done a stand - up wee in the bath on his own, not with DD in there. I really can't see that going well....

Shopping delivery taken, balloons blown, presents wrapped, party bags done. Think I'm ready for dd2 to be big 4! She's so excited, bless her. She's been counting down all week (since dd1s bday last sat).
T laughs when she farts and pees whenever she's nappy free! Today was all over the change table where she was standing looking out the window and I wasn't quick enough with the fresh nappy. She's such a gorgeous monkey bum.

T has peed in the bath with dd1&2 several times - amazingly they have bought it when I've taken the plug out for a few seconds and swooshed the offending wee down the plug hole. All gone. Promise.
