Hiya folks

All is well with us, Leo is becoming quite smiley for his Mummy

Life is pretty hectic, got another busy week ahead of me and DH is working away so am finding it hard to keep up.

Hope everyone is OK and babies are thriving.

ellenkpa · 13/05/2007 22:54

Enough enough.

Do you put ur bundle to sleep in crib ellie or does he sleep with you???

ellenkpa · 13/05/2007 22:57

now there's a question ......

he starts out in the moses baket when we go up, but after 1st feed he's in with me

OP posts:
Pinions · 13/05/2007 23:01

um just wondering. mine hates the crib, was the same with ds1 and we had a nightmare trying to ever get him into a cot. come to think of it he's now 3 1/2 and still sleeps with us most nights oops.

ellenkpa · 13/05/2007 23:04

it's different for me i guess as i'm on my own, so if they sleep in with me there's no one else to be bothered by it, and i like the company!

OP posts:
Pinions · 13/05/2007 23:06

yeh i quite like it too.

what do ya think about the poor girl missing in portugal, its terrible isn't it??????

ellenkpa · 13/05/2007 23:08

i flit between emotions about it tbh, i feel for the parents but struggle with it cos therr's no way i'd have left the children. my friend was in that hotel with her children the week before and she took hers with her to meals.

OP posts:
Pinions · 13/05/2007 23:13

so do i. i could never leave mine especially in a hotel or something. but then it is still awful. i don't know the ages of the other children, are they younger.

mine would be petrified if left on his own.

ellenkpa · 13/05/2007 23:14

pretty sure they're younger

matthew would go looking for me, and does, if he wakes up and i'm not in my bed

OP posts:
Pinions · 13/05/2007 23:19

aaah bless.

anyway lets get of that cos it just makes me really sad to think.

about to go to bed, can u think of a cheery subject as my last thought of the day?

ellenkpa · 13/05/2007 23:20

OP posts:
Pinions · 13/05/2007 23:26

ellenkpa · 13/05/2007 23:28
